Arthur's Theme - Christopher Cross
Christopher Cross and Dudley Moore with Arthur's Theme (The best that you can do)
This was filmed for The Night of 100 Stars on US TV on 1982, the film wasn't a great success but this song was played many times on radio in the 1980s.
I forgot how good this song is and what a fantastic piano player Dudley Moore was
Best that you can do... is fall in love...
When you get caught between the moon and New York City I know it's crazy, but it's true If you get caught between the moon and New York City The best that you can do The best that you can do is fall in love Arthur he does as he pleases All of his life, he's mastered choice Deep in his heart, he's just, he's just a boy Living his life one day at a time And showing himself a really good time Laughing about the way they want him to be

“When you get caught between the moon and New York City, the best that we can do is fall in love” --Arthur’s Theme Lyrics lockscreen/wallpaper
*Background is not mine
Between the Moon and New York City
"I can't believe we're doing this," Weiss bemoaned as she sat down at their piano, opening the door and letting her fingers feel the keys. Yang patted her girlfriend on the back, "Don't worry, Weiss, this is going to be awesome!" she held up the toy mike and amp and looked at her other girlfriend, "Babe! Do you got this?" All three were a little tipsy, but Blake was able to raise her thumb while she hit record, "Ok. Go bitches," she laughed with Yang as Weiss began to play the piano. They were supposed to be singing a song but Yang wasn't entirely with it so the lyrics were pretty damn mumbled until she got to the part she knew by heart, "JUST A BOY!" Though there were a number of lines between them, the three drunk girlfriends bellowed in their apartment, "WHEN YOU GET CAUGHT BETWEEN THE MOON AND NEW YORK CITY!" Yang had been singing into her toy microphone, but to, in her own mind, enhance the song, she put the microphone against the speaker, eliciting a piercing noise that surprisingly went along with Weiss' piano. "I know it's crazy! But it's true!" Yang sung. "IF YOU GET CAUGHT BETWEEN THE MOON AND NEW YORK CITY!" once again joining in tandem, the three of them sang at the top of their lungs to the song. "The best thing you can do," Weiss sang, to the best her professional classes could. "The best that you can get!" Yang started and then, all three of them finished with, "IS FALLING IN LOVE!" In the morning, Yang, Blake, and Weiss watched in horror at the atrocity they created. They still uploaded that shit to instagram. And because they made out in the end, instant ten thousand views. A/N inspired by Eric Andre.
