@prism What a voice you have, Drew, and what range!
(Understood. Of course. lol)
I'll raise you one "you belong to me", with Ruth Etting singing Button Up Your Overcoat. (I'm all about songs from the 1920's today!)
She sings "Stay away from bootleg booze when you're on a spree" (not bad advice at all, that radiator hootch will make you go blind), but the version I know is "Stay away from college boys when you're on a spree" -- which seems to run counter to the entire purpose of a spree!
On the other hand, I love that "take good care of yourself" equates to "get to bed by three". That's my kind of gal!

Another song I love: Ruth Etting, Take Me in Your Arms.
