@zaputzaput1 No one did this tune as great as Peter Allen -- after all, he wrote it. He did the tune in his Radio City Hall concerts, dancing with the Rockettes high kick line.
@kpenguins: yeah, your right. Lucky sods being able to put their hands on Anne! Wish I could have been in their shoes! *sigh* I just think everything about her is wonderful.
I saw Anne do this so many times in concert. It was total kichy and the fans have always loved it (Bruce Allen decided to drop it from later years touring). There is only one Anne...
Lol... Those "22 horn dogs" with shovels are actually 'The Men of the Deeps', North America's only coal miner's choir.
Anne was born and raised in a mining town called Springhill (Nova Scotia, Canada), not far from where the 'Men' originated (Cape Breton), so that's the connection...
Notice the silver mining helmet one of them puts on her head at the end of the song?
(the clip is from the 'Anne Murray Christmas Special' that was broadcast in 1982).
This song used to be part of her live show and she did a little magic trick at the end. Better than all those old men with shovels. The more I watch this, the weirder it gets.
she should have done the magic trick at the beginning. the trick should have been called "look how I can make 22 horn dogs with shovels disappear..." not even in my nightmare do 22 of those appear together...sweet jaysus.
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing this exquisite video. Have a wonderful day :)

Couldn't agree more. That's not our Annie. What possessed Canada's first lady?

What possessed Canada's first lady? Pressure from her management to be something she's not.
