My Dinner With Hervé last night. Fly Me to the Moon was sung in the background throughout the film. He wondered who the singer was and I said she sounds like Doris Day, there's a unique sweetness in her voice. I thought she was 100. He said, n'eh, I bet mid to late 90's.

We both loved her to pieces, especially got a kick out of the rumor that she dated Sly Stone.

Rest In Peace, Ms. Day. You brought us lot joy.
