Daniel Castro ~ I’ll Play The Blues For You
Lyrics:
If you’re down an’ out, an’ you feel real hurt
Come on over, to the place where I work
An’ all your loneliness, I’ll try to soothe
I’ll play the blues for you
Don’t be afraid, come on in
You might run across, yeah, some of your old friends
All your loneliness, I’ve got to soothe
I’ll play the blues for you
Come on in, sit right here
Let’s rap awhile
Ya see I’m kinda lonely too, yeah
An’ loneliness is a very bad thing
If ya let it get the best of ya
An’ loneliness can get ya down, you know
Yeah, yeah, are you comfortable now?
Yeah, yeah, that’s outta sight
Yeah, as I was sayin’ before
Loneliness can get you down, an’I have heard of, ah
Loneliness blowin’ some good people’s mind, ya know?
But ya can’t do that
This is a big world, this is a big world
An’ there’s too many nice things happenin’ in this world
You’re a very pretty girl
Where you live?
No, no, no, disregard that, that’s okay, that’s okay
Most important thing
I wanna know YOU
I say, I wanna know YOU
Uh-huh, ooo-wee, that’s groovy, ain’t it?)
I’ll play the blues for you
I ain’t got no big name
Oh Lord, an’ I ain’t no big star
I’ll play the blues for you, on my guitar
All your loneliness, I’ll try to soothe
I’ll play the blues for you, um!
Because me
Um! woo! um! Woo! Uh-huh, yeah!
Uh-huh! um! Oh!

(The name “Orishas” refers to the set of deities worshipped in African-based religions in the Americas, like Santería in Cuba and Candomblé in Brazil, resulting from the relocation of Yoruba slaves. These orishas each represent a natural element (such as the ocean or leaves) and exhibit a human characteristic (such as motherhood or love))

A Rage to Live (1965)
Starring Suzanne Pleshette, Bradford Dillman, Ben Gazzara and many more famous names!

Grace Caldwell, a wealthy college student who craves male attention, has an affair with Charlie Jay, whose parents find out and tell Grace’s widowed mother. Mrs. Caldwell, who suffers from a heart condition, suspects the extent of her daughter’s promiscuity and travels with her to Nassau for a vacation. While Grace becomes involved with a hotel waiter, her mother has a heart attack and dies from lack of care. Her brother Brock introduces Grace to a college friend, Sidney Tate, who consoles her after her mother’s death, and they decide to marry. Grace explains her past to Sidney, but he insists that their love will overcome her desire for other men. For 2 1/2 years they live happily on a farm and have a baby boy; then Roger Bannon, a self-made building construction manager and the son of one of her mother’s former servants, rebuilds their barn.

He makes advances to Grace, and she succumbs. Jack Hollister, a successful editor and self-righteous hypocrite, tries to make love to Grace, but she refuses his attentions. Fearing the impairment of relations with her husband, she decides to end her affair with Roger; and when she notifies Roger he gets drunk, mistreats a waitress, and dies in a subsequent car crash. When police investigate the death, Grace’s affair becomes public knowledge, whereupon Sidney threatens to leave her if her promiscuity continues.

At a charity bazaar, the jealous wife of Jack Hollister publicly denounces Grace as the cause of her own failing marriage. Though Grace insists upon her innocence, Jack, bitter from rejection, does not deny the accusation, and Sidney abandons Grace.

Hold on my heart

just hold on to that feeling

we both know we’ve been here before

we both know what can happen

Hold on my heart

cos I’m looking over your shoulder

ooh please don’t rush in this time

don’t show her how you feel

Hold on my heart

throw me a lifeline

I’ll keep a place for you

somewhere deep inside

So hold on my heart

please tell her to be patient

cos there has never been a time

that I wanted something more

If I can recall this feeling

and I know there’s a chance

oh I will be there

yes I will be there

be there for you

whenever you want me to

whenever you call oh I will be there

Yes I will be there

Hold on my heart

don’t let her see you crying

no matter where I go

she’ll always be with me

So hold on my heart

just hold on to that feeling

we both know we’ve been here before

we both know what can happen

So hold on my heart.

Movie Class by PizzaFLIX: Orson Welles’ CITIZEN KANE (1941) is a cinema masterpiece that flopped at the box office. Shocking yes, but THE MAGNIFICENT AMBERSONS (1942) fared even worse. Behind schedule and over budget, it was a critical success but a financial disaster. Welles needed to prove himself on his third project as director and star. THE STRANGER (1946) is a top-notch thriller and the only film he directed that was a bona fide box office hit!

Director: Orson Welles
Stars: Orson Welles, Edward G. Robinson, Loretta Young

A Federal Agent poses as an antique dealer to snare a Nazi war criminal living in a small Connecticut town with his unsuspecting American fiancee. Best-known for Citizen Kane, this was Orson Welles’ most popular film at the box office.
