You belong to me

[imgShermanPore]Last week on American Idol, 64-year old Sherman Pore of Los Angeles, California was able to get on the auditions despite him being way beyond the AI age limit of 29 because of the petition that he and his wife worked on. He dedicated his audition song, Dean Martin's You Belong to Me, to his wife. She died of cancer two days before he got on the auditions. He sang from the heart and sent Paula to tears and Simon to being pleasant. The song itself is a very simple and beautiful love song.

You can watch his audition here (from Youtube):

You Belong To Me
(Dean Martin)

Watch the sunrise on a tropic isle
See the pyramids along the Nile
Just remember darlin', all the while
You belong to me

See the market place in old Algiers
Send me photographs and souvenirs
Just remember when a dream appears
You belong to me

I'll be so alone without you
Maybe you'll be lonesome too and blue

Fly the ocean in a silver plane
See the jungle when it's wet with rain
Just remember 'til you're home again
You belong to me

Fly the ocean in a silver plane
See the jungle when it's wet with rain
Just remember 'til you're home again
You belong to me
