I was fixing the P A system at Memorial field in Fremont, Ne. I had to play a tape then adjust their speakers to where the people sit. This song, "Making Love Alone" came on and there were 20 women walkers walking round the track.When this song came on they stopped and listened to it. I was then asked to go play it again. I did and these ladies got a real kick of listening to it. They said it made their day.
I saw her perform this song at the McCallum Theatre in Palm Desert years ago. Some of the older attendees walked out in feigned disgust. For the rest of us, it was an utter delight, as was she.
Speaks volumes of that wasteland that is the Coachella Valley. They're too stupid to get the irony that is their lives. (I know -- I lived in that dust bowl excuse of a community for 3 years.)
Does anyone remember the SNL WW2 .Personal hygiene .skit: "Johnny keep your gun clean" By Bernadette Peters. "Don't come back from France with the enemy in your pants."
@@rainespells1273 You may have to get it on DVD. It's Season 7 Episode 6. The Peacock network only shows "Best of..." versions of the 80s episodes and this song was cut. Some of the 80s episodes are less than 20 minutes long.
I was in HS when I first heard this. Was doing homework when it made me stop, and caught my attention. Of all shows, it was on The Muppet Show. LOL! I thought to myself, "How did no one catch this, and how is this on TV?!"
