thursday



All is quiet on the Western Front. Of course, that is if you don't count me fiddling around on my uke, playing "Tonight You Belong To Me" from The Jerk nearly every waking hour. The only thing better than Steve Martin is a young banjo-playing Steve Martin (or in this case, ukulele). Anyhow, here's the song in question from the film and from the lovely little Lennon Sisters. I'm off to try Smitten Kitchen's watermelon lemonade recipe!

  1. Oh goodness - I have to admit that I've never seen The Jerk!! I should remedy this. The song is so lovely, though.

  2. Last christmas, I was gifted two ukuleles, one bright red plastic with fruit print, the other a beautiful wooden one, and a DVD of the Jerk. I have not yet figured out how to play the song, even though they have an extra on the DVD that teaches you how to play it. Good luck! It's the best song! I also agree about Steve Martin. Totally dreamy. Sigh ... :)
