I'm working on a choral arrangement of The Kingdom by Icehouse in preparation for my fall Pops concert.

BK, both Julieanne and I heard KIlling Me Softly that threaded through the score, usually somewhere in the scenes with Newman and Woodward.  I didn't notice who did the score and if it was the same composer of the original song, but we're both pretty sure that was the song we heard.

Killing Me Softly was written for Lori Lieberman by Charles Fox and Norman Gimbel in 1971 after Lori heard Don McLean in concert one evening and told them how much he had moved her.  That said, DR Pogue, Charles Fox's music bears a very marked similarity to Mandel a lot of the time.

I never knew that was about Don McLean. I've seen him in concert....he does sort of have a gaze as if he's looking right through you as if you aren't there.....LOL...well until Samantha, who was very young and slept in the second row through most of the concert, walked up to him after the concert and told him it was the best thing she'd ever seen in her life.... he cracked up.

Lori's version is quite haunting and in some ways I like it better than Roberta's.

I always liked Charles Fox's music, though he never quite made it into that Mandel stratum of composers.

Jane, he can stay here for a while if he wants.  He can help housesit the dogs while we're gone.  (We have a housesitter but Bryan can help).

DR's Laura & John G thanks for the vibes.

DR JMK thank you for the kind & generous offer.  I just called Bryan, who really didn't have a place as of a few hours ago, & he is with a friend in Tigard where he will crash until he leaves Portland on the 26th.
