It’s Bobby Darin’s birthday. I will take this opportunity to post one of my favorite clips from the Judy Garland TV Show, of Darin singing “Michael Row the Boat Ashore”. It’s so coiled and intense, a bit psychotic, with the “Poor Jud is dead” set, and his one hand clenched in a fist. So intense. Shouting “Michael” is a common phrase in my group of friends. We all love this performance. Happy birthday, Bobby Darin.

MICHAEL!
MICHAEL!
(I love it when he claps. It’s so hot.)
and when the hell are you going to have some free time? I miss you like crazy.
There’s also the bit of chest hair peeking out.
Sexy.
