"Piano man he makes his stand in the auditorium"...
Best scene from "Almost Famous"

Love it!

Tiny Dancer

and Elton doing the full song:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u3ppoX4bVTQ
Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band
Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a music man
Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand
And now she's in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand

Jesus freaks out in the street
Handing tickets out for God
Turning back she just laughs
The boulevard is not that bad

Piano man he makes his stand
In the auditorium
Looking on she sings the songs
The words she knows, the tune she hums

But oh how it feels so real
Lying here with no one near
Only you and you can't hear me
When I say softly, slowly

Hold me closer tiny dancer
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
you had a busy day today

Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band
Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a music man
Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand
And now she's in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand

1. LOVE that movie!!!!
and yes, that scene is classic.
We ran around the club for days afterwards (we all worked in a small strip club in town; we were like family then..) yelling "DON'T TAKE DRUGS!" and falling down laughing.

5. Incredible flick!
I have such a soft spot for Cameron Crowe movies. Loved the story, loved hometown boy Philip Seymour Hoffman, loved the sendup of '70s rock bands...everything.

Plus Billy Crudup's character looked EXACTLY like a guy I was crazy about when I was 19...sigh...

:loveya:
