In addition to his wonderful work with Anthony Newley (Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, Dr. Dolittle, Goodbye Mr. Chips...), Bricuss wrote this amazing number from Victor/Victoria!
Blair Tindall, author of Mozart in the Jungle and professional oboist, was very briefly married to Bill Nye the Science Guy. The marriage was declared invalid by the State of California. Neither Nye nor Tindall has since discussed the dissolution of the marriage. Tindall ater broke into Nye's house and stole his laptop, using it to send defamatory emails in his name. She also used herbicide to destroy his garden.
The line is: "I k now a bank where the wild thyme blows, W here oxlips and the nodding violet grows, Quite over-canopied with luscious woodbine, With sweet musk-roses and with eglantine..." 30 years later, in the middle of the night, it occurs to me that I might have said "Quite o'er-canopied" rather than "over-c anopied...' And now I can't sleep!
Richard Belzer lived on the French Riviera, in a home he purchased using the proceeds from a lawsuit against wrestler Hulk Hogan, who had put Belzer in a sleeper hold that resulted in hospitalization. Belzer called his home "Chez Hogan."
