Singing Soap Stars
« on: May 19, 2003, 05:47:40 AM »
This is sort of off-topic, but not exactly. On Friday night, I happened to have the Daytime Emmy Awards playing on the television while I was in and out of the room doing other stuff. At one point, they had Donny "Puppy Love" Osmond come out and introduce a segment featuring soap actors who also sing.

Now I understand why Elvis shot out the television. Geez.

No longer will I giggle uncontrollably at the sound of the "I Wanna Dance with You" duet. It was a masterpiece compared to this Emmy segment.

However, I have to say the show redeemed itself when they brought out the Sesame Street muppets to sing songs from Mister Rogers' Neighborhood as a tribute to the man. It was really sweet.

'The Look of Love' was song that was song over and over again ad nauseum on Days of Our Lives.  I can't remember the name of the actor who sang it though.  Perhaps it was Bill Hayes? I think it was in the mid-70's but I'm not certain.
