The Parent Trap

It is funny to me how you can go for a very long time not thinking about a particular topic, event, or idea, and then all of a sudden it pops up everywhere! I found that happening to me the last week with "The Parent Trap".

First, the kids were watching TV and the Disney Channel showed the remake of the movie staring a pre "I'm-a-bad-singing-crazy-alcoholic-nasty-maybe-lesbian" (allegedly) Lindsey Lohan opposite herself as the split apart twins. Not really a bad remake in my opinion, which also stared Dennis Quaid and Natasha Richardson as the parents.

I didn't think too much about it at that point, but I admit that I always start thinking about the original version staring the ever so cute Haley Mills as Sharron/Susan. One of the best things about it was the inclusion of the song, "Let's Get Together" - a song I find myself singing in my head everytime someone says, "Hey - let's get together sometime". :)



Classic. So then this week I am bumping around trying (with mad hope) to see if the Go-Go's are going to be playing a show somewhere near me this year. I never figured that out (Dang!!) but when I followed a link to their MySpace page, low and behold there was a track to be played - "Let's Get Together"!!! 'Oh - please let it be that song!!!', I thought, and was filled with giddiness when it was! Turns out they recorded the song for the Disneymania 5 cd. I immediatly went to iTunes and there it was sandwiched between The Cheetah Girls, Miley Cyrus, and Hayden Panettiere's version of Cruella De Vil. (As a side note - WHAT??? I never knew that the Heroes cheerleader sang!!)
