  6. "You Don't Bring Me Flowers" is a song written by #NeilDiamond with #AlanAndMarilynBergman for the daily TV sitcom #AllThatGlitters. The song was intended to be the theme song, but #NormanLear, the show's creator, changed the concept of the show and the song was no longer appropriate. Diamond then expanded the track from 45 seconds to 3:17, adding instrumental sections and an additional verse. The Bergmans contributed to the song's lyrics.

  7. Sitting here bawling listening to the Soundtrack for #SongSungBlue!

    #NeilDiamond was my mom's favorite artist.! This brings back memories of me taking her to a Neil Diamond concert in Fresno, CA on Sep 25, 2005!

    She's gone now but she'd approve of how well Hugh Jackman pulls this off!

  8. I saw “Song Sung Blue” in a sneak preview and it was a great movie. I even sang along and then saw it a second time and sang even more! If it hadn't been shown there, I might never have heard of it. I don't actively seek out information about new movies anymore, so I'm really surprised by the sneak preview.
