ryanprodj Posted January 4, 2005 #1 Share Posted January 4, 2005 What I am in need of is the words to the old jingle of Carnival's "If You Could See Me Now.....I'm on a funship cruise". It was done by Kathy Lee Gifford a while back in their commercials. Anyone know all the words? Ryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tef43 Posted January 4, 2005 #7 Share Posted January 4, 2005 IIt was actually a Disco Hit....It's *much* older than that. It was originally from the Broadway musical Sweet Charity, and then later (1969) made into a film. Gwen Verdon played the title character when the show premiered at the Palace Theater in 1966. The same musical that brought us the classic "Hey, Big Spender." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
