Hey, my lovelies! Today I made a number of lip-syncs I would love to share with you! I hope you enjoy them!
The first is a signature musical lip-sync of one of my favorite musical songs, How To Be Lovely, from Funny Face! It is sung by Kay Thompson (yes, author of the Eloise books, OMGargoyles, right?) and Audrey Hepburn (the Living Angel from the Cotton Candy Forest [IN THE COTTON CANDY FOREST SHE LIVES OKAY IT IS OTHER-WORLDLY]) and is asdfghjkl; amazing.

Hehehe. I like that song.
Okay, next one! The next lip-sync I have for you is the Arthur theme song! Have you ever really listened to the song? Thought about the lyrics? Took the words to heart? DOOOO ITTTTTTTTTTT. I swear it became one of my favorite songs after I bought the version by the TV Theme Band, which, get this, EXISTS SOLELY TO RECORD TELEVISION SHOW THEME SONGS. *flails happily*

And finally, a lip-sync of the Ascot Gavotte from My Fair Lady! At first, I didn’t think I like this song, and then I listened to a few times and…I LOVE IT. It’s so prim and proper and VICTORIAN, ya know? Plus, the outfits worn during this scene are, like, crazy fantastic.

And it is my half-birthday. When I brought this up today, my family related to it by talking about Arthur episodes. One, in which Prunella celebrated her half-birthday, and if I remember correctly, loses a magic cootie-catcher that predicts the future when pair of jeans with said in the pocket goes through the washing machine, and another in which D.W. celebrated her half-birthday (How? I don’t remember.).
Thank you all for watching!
Much love,
Ellie
