I am Your Sunshine

After Tomorrow, there&#039s another lively and lovely song from Annie

The Hard-Knock Life

I watched the 99 TV movie version the day before yesterday and loved it.

(though apparently not enough to make me wanna add it to my collection.)

The Hard-Knock life scene is very very well-presented, Victor is …adorable(?)

however, i don&#039t like the famous 4-time Tony winner Audra McDonald.

If I am to buy the DVD, I&#039d be buying it for HKL scene,
and for the price (it&#039s cheaper than CD, WTH!)

something else worth noted, the Star-To-Be actress Andrea McArdle

was the one who played the Annie in OBC.

You&#039ll stay up till this dump shines like the top of the Chrysler Building.

ORPHANS
Yank the whiskers from her chin
Jab her with a safety Pin
Make her drink a mickey finn
I love you, Miss Hannigan
