*) It is a big mystery to me why the song “Lovely Lady“ coïncides with the exact moment when the lovely flowerseller appears in this film. I definitely did not chose the music for this reason, didn’t even know this song, was not aware that it was part of the medley, chose the description “Lovely Lady selling flowers“ in the timeline out of the blue, and did not edit anything to make this coincidence happen.
Out of the billion of songs on Earth there are only half a dozen with “Lovely Lady“ in the title. ’Something’ made me chose this song by Harry Davidson & His Orchestra. There is more between heaven and earth....
Furthermore, out of all the scenes in this film, the Google algorithm chose this moment to generate the default thumbnail. I still can’t get over these two events. Coïncidence ?? What do you think?
