"A tortured soul... "
"But still... "
One of the greatest poets
that ever lived.
Would you like it?
No, thanks.
I got to go.
Here.
Take it with you.
A present.
I'll just
borrow it.
Ok.
See ya.
Joann was telling me
you write music.
Thinks you might be good.
I'll give you a try.
What I want
is songs that echo.
is like...
somebody's bedsheets...
Spread them out,
soil them,
Ship them out to laundry,
you know?
But our songs...
I want to be able to...
fold ourselves up
in them forever.
You understand?
That's the most you'll ever
get out of me, Wordman.
Ever.
Ladies and gentlemen...
the holiday inn
is proud to present
A group that's
been bringing us hits
For nearly 18 years.
How about a big hand
for some jersey boys
Who really made good...
Eddie and the cruisers,
Featuring Sal Amato!

He's just crazy enough

things about you.
He told me that you were

That was the memory lane
voice of Eddie Wilson,
The original sound
of the cruisers.
I'd like to take you
On another little
journey now.
How many of you remember
that old feeling...
Sand in your shoes,
Ants in your pants,
Secret weapon
in your wallet?
That's you, right?
Yeah.
How about the feeling
of that magic, magic night?
The first time.
How many of you
remember that?
I want to see
a show of hands.
Come on.
Ah.
Slow dancing,
submarine races...
hickeys.
You were cruising
with your favorite girl.
The top was down, and
the music was blasting.
Hmm?
That was
the inspiration behind
Wild summer nights.
1, 2, 3, 4!
wild summer nights
oh, baby, those
wild summer nights
summer nights
wild summer nights
oh, baby, run wild
summer nights
strangers cruisin' down
the south strip
cool cats searchin'
for some hot lips
night shift,
rebels lace midnight
in black leather
shipwrecked pirates claim
their treasures in the sand
sidewalk surfers ride
of the gypsy caravan
open up your door
we'll let
those lake pipes roar
into the wild
summer nights
oh, baby, those
wild summer nights
wild summer nights
oh, baby, those
wild summer nights
oh, baby, run wild
summer nights
run wild
summer nights
All right.
when the moon
hung soft and low
catchin' stardust
in the night
you held me
closer and closer
there was magic
in the night
a sweet love song,
a melody
that I still
can recall
two young hearts
filled with dreams
to walk away
with it all
whoa-Oh,
tender years
won't you wash away
my tears?
how I wish
you were near
please don't go,
tender years
a summer love,
a beach romance
salty kisses
in the sand
two young hearts
filled with fire
lost
in never-Never land
whoa-Oh,
tender years
won't you wash away
my tears?
how I wish
you were near
please don't go,
tender years
whoa-Oh,
tender years
won't you wash away
my tears?
how I wish
you were near
please don't go,
tender years
All right!
All right!
Eddie Wilson is a part
of yesterday, sure he is,
But he's as much a part of
You know, we're still
together, him and me.
And never a day passes
That I don't think
he's around somewhere...
Out in the street,
around the corner,
Not far away at all.
forever
they will haunt me
but what can I do
those oldies
but goodies
reminds me of
you
you
you
you
you
The cruisers
with Sal Amato.
Let's give 'em a big hand.
Once more for this
really great group.
Ladies and gentlemen,
here they come.
Here they are.
Take a bow, sally.
Ok. Thank you very much.
Don't go away.
Stick around.
There'll be dancing
till dawn
our very own Regina Lewis.
Thank you.
Son of a b*tch.
Son of a b*tch.
Look what comes walking
through the door!
Wordman himself!
Just like Ive been
telling everybody,
When you're hot,
you're hot.
Where have you been
hiding yourself, Wordman?
