This is tomorrow, so set your VCRs!!

If you catch "Dubarry was a Lady" it includes the Cole Porter song "Friendship" which Lucy sang with Viv on ILL. In the film she performs this same number with Red Skelton. Unfortunately Lucy's voice is dubbed in this film--though I'm not necessarily convinced it was for this song--since they perform it in a comical way. Good film.

Exactly Buddy, that's the one song that uses her real voice, BECAUSE OF THE COMEDY INVOLVED. And Dawsongirl's right in pointing that out Ash, LOVE THAT, hadn't noticed it on my own, very funny!
