"Xanadu" written by Jeff Lynne
Don't tell anyone, but I'm nervous.
What about?
I haven't had a club opening since... 1945. Wow.
Then just pretend it's 1945 all over again.
Kid can you imagine it?
Imagine what?
A bandstand. Right over there in that corner. And a big band, like in the 40's
Nah, nah, nah. Bandstands went out with running boards. Over there. A great rock 'n' roll band. This is the 80's!
Real smooth dancers... wild trombone... the band decked out in tuxedos.
Six guys wearing electric orange... synthesizer... heavy percussion... electric guitar.
Lots of glamour. Everybody dressed in elegance and style.
Kira, I want you to promise me one thing.
Anything!
On opening night, I get the first dance.
Okay.
You're gonna dance?
Oh, I've been known to twinkle a toe or two.
Have you ever heard the expression "kissed by a muse"? Well, that's what I am. I'm a muse.
Well, I'm glad someone's having a good time.
Oh, don't make jokes; I'm serious.
Look up "muse" in the dictionary. Go on, page seven twenty-eight. Read it!
Okay, all right. I'll read it. [reading] "Muse; any one of the nine sister..."
Like the album cover? Mm-hmm?
[reading]
"Any one of the nine sister goddesses in Greek mythology, presiding over song, and poetry, and the arts and do you believe me now, Sonny?" How'd you do that? What's going on?
Mnemosyne
Maybe just one moment darling…
Zeus
…well maybe just one moment or forever, I keep getting them mixed up too.
Dreams die.
No. No, no, no. Not by themselves. We - we kill them!
Hey I've been asking about you all day. You may not believe this but I'm painting an album cover and you're on it.
Why shouldn't I believe it?
Because before today I never laid eyes on you. Now I've seen you 3 times in one day. That's a little too coincidental.
Sounds like you don't believe it.
I want to know more about you.
You already know enough about me. Any more and you're going to get a headache.
Are you living with someone?
Yes. I told you I live with my sisters.
I know. In an apartment on the second floor. All right, then. What's your last name?
Same as my mother's and father's.
And what's that?
Which one, my mother's or my father's?
Either!
The same as mine!
I get it. No questions.
No questions, no lies.
No questions, no truth, either.
