    He never speaks his views
    Whereas other men speak volumes
    The man I love is mute
    In truth, I can't recall
    Being wooed with words at all
    Even now
    He plays the violin
    He tucks it right under his chin
    And he bows, oh he bows
    For he knows, yes he knows
    That it's heigh, heigh, heigh, diddle diddle
    Twixt my heart, Tom and his fiddle
    My strings are unstrung
    Heigh, heigh, heigh, heigh
    I am undone
    I hear his violin
    And I get that feeling within
    And I sigh, oh I sigh
    He draws near, very near
    And it's heigh, heigh, heigh, diddle diddle
    And... goodbye to the fiddle!
    My strings are unstrung
    Heigh, heigh, heigh, heigh

  • @sarahluvs2sing166
    @sarahluvs2sing166 4 года назад +15

    Fun Fact:
    As you know, Blythe Danner plays Martha Jefferson here. And in the movie “Jefferson in Paris,” her daughter, Gwyneth Paltrow, played Martha’s daughter, Patsy. (Blythe Danner wasn’t in the movie though; Martha was already dead in the movie.) Just some cool trivia.

  • @lamagiduneinstant76
    @lamagiduneinstant76 5 лет назад +19

    For those who argue Betty Buckley in this role; certainly she is a powerful Broadway-trained belter and I’m even somewhat surprised that Blythe could pull this off, her voice being rather low and almost (raspy?) ~ it is her sweetness and innocence that won her this role. I can’t imagine anyone else as “Maaartha!”

    • @scottvasquez1401
      @scottvasquez1401 4 месяца назад

    You probably may not have noticed this the first time, but yeah, Blythe Danner, who's singing the role of Martha Jefferson in this film, is the Mom of Gwyneth Paltrow who plays Pepper Potts, and during filming Danner was actually five months pregnant with Paltrow. So there you go.

      To make this connection even more interesting, of course, Gwyneth's dad/Blythe's husband was TV writer/producer Bruce Paltrow, who created "The White Shadow", that early 1980's drama about a former NBA player-turned-inner city high school basketball coach, who was played by none other than Thomas Jefferson himself, Ken Howard.

    Though I did research Martha Jefferson and honestly her backstory is really sad. Ya’ll should look up her wiki page though, it’s fascinating.

      Unlikely. I doubt he's ever done a musical, at least since he was a kid. But I've done this solo and seen it done by a couple of my 1st section peers in the pit. No big deal.

    well John Adams is never really accepted by anyone but Jefferson and Franklin because John is obnoxious and disliked, did you know that?. Captain America is accepted by just about everyone. John Adams is the Hulk. And Martha Jefferson is Black Widow. Or is that supposed to be Abigail Adams?. The real question is: Who gets to be Captain America?

    ... and “enthusiasm” all the way around...(I haven’t seen it in long time.) While doling out well-deserved praise, it is now known from the release of “She Said” that it was Gwyneth Paltrow (Blythe’s daughter) who was foremost in bringing down Harvey Weinstein. Her then boyfriend Brad Pitt “visited” the demon 🐷 with his own well established cache of Hollywood power and it was because she was willing to really put her career on the line to bring IT down that other women ~multitudinous (who had been interviewed before and then nothing had come of their interviews) along with the higher echelons of the NY Times backing the two investigative reporters, to speak openly about their experiences. I like especially the Paris Match cover of Marion Cotillard going -literally toe to toe with the evil pos in all his insane “glory”. ~See, what we can do together?

    If you can't see any African Americans in this musical; if you understand why the entire South was willing to walk away from independence over the ownership of slaves; then you understand why many African Americans don't celebrate July 4th as our day of freedom and the necessity of our own day of freedom... Juneteenth (6/19/1865) 2 and a half years AFTER Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation. Slaves in many southern states didn't even know they were free until General Granger told them because up until then it was illegal for slaves to read. So Happy Independence Day to Caucasian America!

      Hadn't heard that one before, though I know he raped some of his slaves. Thomas Jefferson is so fascinating because he's a contradiction- one of the most brilliant, eloquent champions for liberty who ever lived, and yet someone who in his personal life betrayed every principle he advocated. In a way, he can be seen as personifying the conflict between the idealized democracy that America aspires to be, and the corrupt state it so often is in practice.
