...And has the "mystery" over the correct lyrics for "Blinded By The Light" ever been setttled?    -Wrapped up like a what?!?!?

This website is pretty funny. People post their misheard lyrics and the real ones.

It's obviously named after the oft mistaken  "Excuse me, while I kiss this guy" (Should be kiss the sky)

Re:  Sundance (from last night).  I have never been to the film festival,

I'm not talking 'bout millenium"


which always made sense to me because he was saying just for now, not forever.
Liked it much better than the real lyric- I'm not talking 'bout moving in.

PAGE SIX "HERE, KITTY, KITTY, KITTY" DANCE!

That's the line I never got.

And I always thought it was "wrapped up like a deuce"---I was thinking of cards, not cars, but it still didn't make any sense.

Is this Johnny Depp’s year?

Every year we say it, and whether he’s played J.M. Barrie or a swashbuckling pirate, something or someone always gets in the way.

Who could it be this year? Philip Seymour Hoffman in "The Savages" or "Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead?" Daniel Day-Lewis as a lunatic in "There Will Be Blood?"

It’s bloody unlikely. Depp gives such a complete and textured performance as the demon barber "Sweeney Todd" — in which he sings, as well — that it would be hard for the Academy to deny him again.

And though there are plenty of great directors this year, such as Sidney Lumet ("Devil") and Joe Wright ("Atonement"), Tim Burton will be hard to ignore as well. He’s done the impossible and brought a masterpiece of a musical to film intact and almost to perfection.

I have to tell you that "Sweeney Todd" is my favorite Broadway musical because it’s so much more than that. But Stephen Sondheim’s magnificent piece of art divides people.

While the music is absolutely glorious from beginning to end, many audience members blanch at the grisly nature of the story. Sweeney, the embittered barber who goes mad, cuts a lot of throats. His accomplice, Mrs. Lovett, makes meat pies from his victims. It’s all done with humor, but still … you love it or hate it.
I loved Burton’s film version, which the American press saw Thursday night for the first time. But there were those in the theater whom you could feel wanted to run for the exits when the blood started spurting.
There are some graphic scenes, admittedly. I can only hope it’s not a turn off for Academy voters, because "Sweeney Todd" should be a Best Picture nominee this year and perhaps even the winner of the Oscar. It’s that good.

Burton opens up the stage musical so we finally see, after all these years, that "there’s no place like London." From Mrs. Lovett’s bake shop to Sweeney’s barber shop to the English seaside where the pair take a fanciful imaginary holiday, Burton cuts through the usual dilemma of transferring a play to film. It’s a totally two-dimensional experience on film.
