One More Time Page #3

Synopsis: Rattling around in his mansion in the Hamptons, faded Sinatraesque crooner and notorious ladies man Paul Lombard stews over the acclaim that eluded him in his career and the trail of romantic wreckage he left in his wake. Matters are complicated when his punk rocker daughter Jude arrives in need of a place to stay and burdened with problems of her own....including a rivalry with her overachieving sister, her own ruinous love life, and above all, a fraught relationship with her famous father.

can we conspire and consort

to make the good times last?

If youth is wasted on

the young, and it is,

and time goes by too fast, if

second chances go and come,

or too, too much to ask.

Oh, if... if I'd been

born in Hindustan,

I'd reincarnate

like the Hindus can.

I'll tell you, sir,

I've got a plan,

when I live my life over again.

I'm all warmed up,

and limber now.

Next time, I swear I'm

going to make it count.

Thank god we get more

than one go round.

Regret,.

Regrets, yes, I've had a few.

Perhaps I forgot to mention, but

the passing years and graying

beard are what got my attention.

Take it home.

So as a dress rehearsal,

this one's been fine.

But now I'm going to

go for real this time,

and smell the red roses when I'm

living my life all over again.

Alert my friends when I

live my life over again!

It's not a bad song, you know?

It's fantastic.

Well, it's a little something.

Anyway.

Hello?

This heart is a foolish one.

It's never worked right.

It so loudly... it so loudly

keeps me awake in the night.

And it forces...

Listeners soon

found themselves entranced

by the dulcet vocals

that were to become

a Humperdink trademark.

Humperdink combined

the influen...

With the pre-rock and

roll romance of American

crooner Paul Lombard.

Hey.

Shout out from vh1.

Where's my behind the music?

Oh, please.

You don't want

that horrible sh*t.

It's just Hollywood

exploitation.

I was born too late.

My era was Sinatra, Dino,

Tony Bennett, those guys.

I come along at least

a decade after that.

After your rock and roll had

destroyed the whole tradition.

My rock and roll.

Right.

Who am I, Chuck Berry?

Still, you had a good run.

Didn't you?

O king of romance.

To this day, when anyone

wants some make out music,

the first thing they reach

for is a Paul Lombard album.

Which one?

What?

Which album dot hey reach for?

Oh.

I don't know.

"In the dark and lonely hours."

"Swinging at Sally's," or

"boulevard of broken dreams."

Paul's greatest, obviously.

That's a compilation.

I didn't even get paid.

It still counts.

Seriously, I can't tell you how

many people my age have a copy

of "in the dark and lonely."

"Dark and lonely."

What a wonderful record.

"Dark and lonely" is

a wonderful record.

You know, there's no single.

It's gonna be the

beginning of my next act

to reclaim my place.

I'm glad.

What?

What?

You don't sound enthusiastic.

I'm glad sounds like

a prelude to a but.

No but.

It's just that...

There you go.

You're nothing if not critical.

I was just going

to say that it's

a shame it has to be motivated

by such... I don't know,

bitterness.

It's called drive, and

you could take a lesson.
