Rise"
It's amazing to me how the dramatic moments of LnL can be brought back by the music associated with them. ""Think of Laura" always makes me wistful when I hear it. "Fascination" has a special place in my heart. "Rise" is another one that beings back LnL memories, and the music on the sailboat seduction scene also does that for me. There was a dance scene to Donna Summers (can't remember the name of the song) "She works hard for the money...". GH was a work of art in those heady days of the 1980's. Tony and Genie put Herb Alpert on the map. After the rape, "Rise" became a national hit. GH was a great platform for music artists. It didn't hurt Rick Springfield's career to perform, "Jesse's Girl", a song that a lot of people thought was written for his character on GH, Noah Drake, and jackie Zeman's Bobbie who was living with the nurse, Jessie, at the time. Tony had a part in the music selection for some themes. The whole show was brilliant. Sad that they can't sustain that now. --Previous Message-- : : They're playing Rise right now at work. It : amazes me how good this song is. : : Was it popular before the infamous L&L rape : scene, or only after? :
