"(I've Been Using) The F-Word"    Written by Bernadette Coker and Chip Martin.    Sung by Justin Spears.

SPECIAL NOTE ---- The so-called "F-Word" is NOT heard at all in this song.    Rest assured that this is a G-Rated Presentation.

The lyricist of this song wrote it for her husband after he was laid off by the company where he had worked with great
dedication for over 30 years. She says, "He's been unemployed for two years now. It's been scary, it's been emotionally
draining, but, by the grace of God, we've managed to hang in there. We've been using the F-Word a lot these past two
years, but we have unwavering faith that things will be O.K."

                                the recording studio personnel must have realized that things were going to be a
                                little different from that point on. Wikipedia article on the making of the song.

 "Television's Greatest Hits" CD Series
     Collection of TV show themes. Be warned though. Some of the songs taken from the original LP records were

 Perhaps someone out there knows the title, artist and source of a piece of music I heard on the March 1997 Academy
 Awards (aka Oscars) presentation, as background music for the "In Memoriam" segment  (introduced by actress Angela
 Bassett) that salutes deceased stars and contributors. The last portion of this music is also heard at the end of
 NBC's Sept 26 1999 Ryder Cup telecast.

 An MP3 recording of the afore-mentioned "In Memoriam" segment (music only) is available for downloading just by
 clicking on the "MP3 Recording of Music" link above. While the music plays, you'll hear intermittent applause as
 the audience pays respect to the various deceased personalities.

 Again, if you recognize the music and know the source, please ID that source, along with the song's title and the
 artist(s) who composed and/or performed it. Click-on the "Do You Have Any Opinions" link located just below.
