Last night I met one of my favorite singers, Steve Tyrell, at the Carlyle hotel bar. Steve Tyrell sang the songs for both of the Father of the Bride movies (my FAVORITE). He performs at the Carlyle during the holiday season, and just happened to walk into the bar and did a single with the piano player. I was at the bar, sucking back vodka gimlets, not really understanding what was going on until he walked up to the gaggle of gals next to us and was chatting them up. I tapped him on the shoulder and told him that I was sorry to interrupt, but I'm a HUGE fan. He put his arm around me and I said, "On the Sunny Side of the Street?" and he started singing, so I sang with him.
"Grab your coat, and get your hat
Leave your worries on the doorstep
And just direct your feet
To the sunny side of the street"
DREAM. COME. TRUE.
Oh my goodness! Father of the Bride is my favorite, too, and I LOVE that song! What a great New York moment!
