So Cher does this Flynn song "Human" over the credits of "Stuck On You"
...and it was actually pretty good. Understand it won a Grammy. A melodramatic big ballad, so not totally foreign to Cher's turf, but to my ears a notch or two better than her usual stuff.

David Foster produced it, and he's a guy who definitely knows how to make hit records. The Boston Herald described Flynn's music as "uplifting-without-sounding-naive songs." And into that mix steps Cher, to remake the song for inclusion in a comedy about cojoined twins.

Strange little movie...I've seen all of the Farrelly Bros. flicks, and while it's not my favorite it was worth watching for the usual "Farrelly touches."

One of those deals where you turn on Cinemax, the movie's already started, you don't know Cher's in it, then you go "Hey look, it's Cher" and she ends up doing a pretty decent version of a song that didn't come from some hack Hollywood "hitmaker" like Dianne Warren (author of the abhorrent Aerosmith hit "I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing")...

Life is full of surprises.

"Human"

Written by: Martin Crotty AKA Flynn

I don't see right, I don't see wrong
In anything I've done, In where I've gone.
And I'm only human and yes I've made mistakes
I wish that I could foresee what I'm doing wrong, get some breaks.

Through a doorway I'm calling, down a long road I'm walking
Like an eagle I'm soaring up so high.

You can see it in my hands
You can see it in my face
I'm chasing passion down a one way street.
But I'm in command of lost control
And I'll tell you one thing's certain, that I'll never fake it for anyone.

Run to a place you'll never hide, to a place you hold so tight and you'll try....

And I'm only human and yes I've made mistakes
