My Favorite Things - Sing alone with me!

Julie Andrews Turns 69, this is hysterical. To commemorate her birthday, actress/vocalist, Julie Andrews made a special appearance at Manhattan's Radio City Music Hall for the benefit of the AARP. One of the musical numbers she performed was "My Favorite Things" from the legendary movie "Sound Of Music". Here are the lyrics she used: Sing It!) - If you sing it, it's especially hysterical!!! Maalox and nose drops and needles for knitting, Walkers and handrails and new dental fittings, Bundles of magazines tied up in string, These are a few of my favorite things. Cadillacs and cataracts, and hearing aids and glasses, Polident and Fixodent and false teeth in glasses, Pacemakers, golf carts and porches with swings, These are a few of my favorite things. When the pipes leak, when the bones creak, When the knees go bad, I simply remember my favorite things, And then I don't feel so bad. Hot tea and crumpets and corn pads for bunions, No spicy hot food or food cooked with onions, Bathrobes and heating pads and hot meals they bring, These are a few of my favorite things. Back pain, confused brains and no need for sinnin', Thin bones and fractures and hair that is thinnin', And we won't mention our short shrunken frames, When we remember our favorite things. When the joints ache, when the hips break, When the eyes grow dim, Then I remember the great life I've had, And then I don't feel so bad! (Ms. Andrews received a standing ovation from the crowd that lasted over four minutes and repeated encores. Please share Ms. Andrews' clever wit and humor with others who would appreciate it.)

My daughter loves that song. She wouldn't understand these words though..lol. It was cute, thanks for sharing. I did sing it!!!

She really is a great icon! Last awards show I saw her on her husband (Blake Edwards) was getting an award and he was in a wheel chair this was a couple of years ago. She looks amazing. Favorite things is my daughters favorite song! I wont sing her this version...but my parents will love it!

Did you see the skit (didn't know it was a skit at first), but he appeared to come out in a wheelchair and go full speed and crashed? Of course it was an actor, but it made everyone gasp.

That is hysterical! Loved it! She has always been one of my favorite singer/actresses. What a voice!

I love, love, love that movie and that song....and Julie Andrews) and one of my nephews sang that song at a recital recentaly (not that version but I'll be sending it along so their parents feel as old as I do right now!!). That was fun.....I can't wait to pass it along!

I love it, I had to sing this for a vocal class I took, and I got a standing ovation! I was so embarrassed, it seemed to be the longest song ever!
