Five on Friday - The Sonny and Mostly Cher Version

I'm definitely getting a late start today being that I decided around 11:30 last night that perhaps a little Benadryl might be in order to insure a good night's sleep so I took one tiny teeny little pill ... thirteen hours later I'm finally starting to feel like I'm awake again thanks to a big ole' mug of extra dark roast coffee.  Ah well, I knew when I took it that it was going to be a late day and at least I can say that I slept really, really well!

Anyhow, all that aside, this week's Five on Friday was inspired by a news blurb I saw on Yahoo! yesterday that Cher was going to no longer be performing at Caesar's Place in Las Vegas after February 5th.  Her three-year run at the Colosseum will be coming to a close but apparently the 65-year old diva is planning yet another farewell tour sometime in the future.  Yep, the beat certainly does go on!

    I always loved the Sonny and Cher show, especially her Vamp segment. She can Vamp like nobody else!

    13 hours? I doubt I've ever done that!

    Big hugs :]

    Old time favourites - Great!

    Cher looks amazing still - but that's more to do with plastic surgery than good genes I think. ;)

    Still I wish I looked that good. :(

    I loved watching the Sonny & Cher show when it used to be on and I went to see them perform live in concert in Toronto back in 1977:-) I've also always loved Cher's music and listening to the 5 songs you chose is bringing back so many memories!! xoxo

    'Gypsies tramps & thieves' is a great tune to sing!

    This is a fun one this week, Linda! My family used to watch the Sonny and Cher show all the time.

    I Got You Babe and The Beat Goes On are my favorites from your set.

    It's funny how some songs make me smile from the first notes. A lot of S&C's songs do that.
