Would have been Marvin Gaye's 75th birthday today

I love Doris Day! Calamity Jane has to be one of the greatest movies ever imo.

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Love Doris Day. She is so sultry in "Young Man with a Horn" and even smokes a cigarette with elegance. (Also the title makes me snigger.)

[wavyline girl]

Respect to Marvin Gaye too. I remember working in a record shop and his estranged father-in-law came in

to buy "Sexual Healing" I didn't believe it till he got some old polaroids out of his wallet.

But Move Over Marvin Darling?.it's Doris's day today.

Get Pillow Talk/Love Me or Leave Me/The Man Who Knew Too Much/Pyjama Game out on DVD, or downloaded for a DD fest treat.

gawd bless ya girl

Perhaps

[AllyCat]

Did you know she was married 4 times? She now runs a inn/B&B in Carmel, California......

[PokerTime]

Yes, she never seemed to find personal happiness sadly. She also rescues and rehomes cats too.

[StraferJack]

" never seemed to find personal happiness sadly" - "also rescues and rehomes cats"

wouldn't mind seeing that venn diagram

Err I can see where this thread is now heading. What a shame.This was just meant to be a post to celebrate a lovely actress/singer who has many fans in this country, and has reached a venerable age.

Why have a poke at someone just because they care about animals, and chose to do something about it? Its called caring.

I'm beginning to put a Venn Diagram together for some of the vitriolic people who vent on this forum.

It's just a bit of fun WG. I have cats and admire the work that Doris Day has done with her animal foundation. Just as I admire the work of Celia Hammond and the PDSA etc. There is really no offence meant from me and I'm pretty sure SJack meant no harm either (although I can't speak for him of course).

Happy birthday, lovely Doris Day. Fabulous figure too.

Who actually believes personal happiness necessarily equals being in a long-term relationship anyway?

[wavyline girl]

That's ok Poker.

(From a fellow DD fan and animal lover-well i like to think i am anyway!)

And now, back to the music

(and films !)

[PeckhamRose]

Loved her. Watching the documentary again now. x

[uncleglen]

There was a strange track on a Beatles album (Let it Be I think) where they do some random stuff and say' Doris Day Matt Busby..' and everytime I hear about Doris Day I think of that track.

I thought Kathy Kirby was good at 'secret love' but old Doris sang it original and best.
