My boyfriend of 8 years passed away and his last name is Seymour, n I always had this dream of this song being played at our wedding, it’ll forever remind me of him ❤️
I honestly think this song is the reason why the theatrical version of this movie has a happy ending. Rick and Ellen made these characters so endearing and likable to the point that test audiences wanted to see them survive.
Lift up your head Wash off your mascara Here, take my Kleenex, wipe that lipstick away Show me your face, clean as the morning I know things were bad, but now they're okay Suddenly, Seymour is standing beside you You don't need no makeup, don't have to pretend Suddenly, Seymour is here to provide you Sweet understanding, Seymour's your friend Nobody ever treated me kindly Daddy left early, Mama was poor I'd meet a man and I'd follow him blindly He'd snap his fingers, me, I'd said sure Suddenly, Seymour is standing beside me He don't give me orders, he don't condescend Suddenly, Seymour is here to provide me Sweet understanding, Seymour's my friend Tell me this feeling lasts 'til forever Tell me the bad times are clean washed away Please understand that it's still strange and frightening For losers like I've been, it's so hard to say Suddenly, Seymour (Suddenly, Seymour) He purified me (He purified you) Suddenly, Seymour (Suddenly, Seymour) Showed me I can (Yes, you can) Learn how to be more The girl that's inside me (The girl that's inside inside you) With sweet understanding (With sweet understanding) With sweet understanding (With sweet understanding) With sweet understanding Seymour's your man
That shot from inside the patient's mouth is such a great practical effect. I wonder how much money, time and effort went into these three seconds of film.
I was in this show my sophomore year of high school as a street person and next May a local civic theatre in Richmond Indiana is doing this show it's a favorite of mine
Whatever happened to Michelle Weeks who sung lead with. Tichina Arnold And Tisha Campbell? She seemed to have faded into the background after this film whereas Tisha and Tichina went on to bigger and better things. Such a shame, she was a very talented singer that was underutilized.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
