Backing track by Karaoke All Stars and purchased on iTunes. Original song written and performed by Paul Stookey.
Stargazer leaves on his honeymoon.
So ends the Wedding Arc. This particular song has been a favorite of mine since it came out in 1971. I remember that summer well, as I was doing security guard duty at the State Fair and listening to the radio (only thing to really do, as nobody came in through the gate we were guarding. It was ranked on the chart one step above "Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey" by Paul McCartney. Guess which song got more plays, though. Grrr... The harmonies were created by me and a fellow by the name of Joel Kaplan for a group I was in at the time. The routine "Niagara Falls, slowly I turned..." is an old vaudeville act done by many people and revamped several times.

A very old Vaudville comedy routine. The idea was the comedian finds someone he calls a kind soul to tell his troubles to. He talks about how his girl was stolen from him by his best friend. He then goes about stalking them, and finally catches up with them at Niagara Falls, where he beats his best friend up, but his girl still rejects him. So now, every time someone says Niagara Falls he goes into this mania, reliving the moment, and ends up beating up whoever says the name.
