Title: RIP Doris Day Post by: JK on May 13, 2019, 10:03:02 AM This is the Doris Day song I remember from the '50s. Ninety-seven is a good age. Rest in peace, Ms. Day.

Whenever I hear of Doris Day I think of this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZbKHDPPrrc Title: Re: RIP Doris Day Post by: Rob Dean on May 13, 2019, 04:24:13 PM I'm sure that Bruce will be very sad at the passing of Doris, RIP
Title: Re: RIP Doris Day Post by: JK on May 14, 2019, 01:13:45 AM I'm sure that Bruce will be very sad at the passing of Doris, RIP Aww. A cruel thrust, Mr Dean! ;D Title: Re: RIP Doris Day Post by: RangeRoverA1 on May 14, 2019, 02:33:32 AM I didn't find Mr. Dean's reply cruel. Care to explain?
Btw, when I read she passed at 97, I calculated it should be 95 & been thinking "Is 97 typo?". Since her birth year previously stated clearly "1924". But now, it says "1922" huh? Bizarre.

Seems she lopped two years off her age somewhere along the line. So yes, she was born in 1922 and died aged 97. Bruce once said something like "People look at us and think we're surfing Doris Days". That's all. And the expression "a cruel thrust" is generally said in jest. ;) Title: Re: RIP Doris Day Post by: JK on May 14, 2019, 12:29:17 PM This is another Doris song I remember well. The gorgeous "Move Over Darling" (1964) was co-written by son Terry Melcher and arranged by Jack Nitzsche, with The Blossoms on backing vocals. Seems "MOD" went top ten in the UK but missed out completely in the States.

Truly sorry about that.

Thanks to confirm I got it right, Mr. Dean.Re: Doris cutting 2 yrs to seem young - actually, it isn't the case: Quote For most of her life, Day reportedly believed she had been born in 1924 and reported her age accordingly; it was not until her 95th birthday — when the Associated Press found her birth certificate, showing a 1922 date of birth — that she learned otherwise.

The popular Dutch-language '80s band Doe Maar took their song "Doris Day" into the Dutch top ten in 1982. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4nIOOiGDNFE (There must be more songs that mention Ms. Day.)
