"Make Someone Happy" sang the woman who couldn't be.

Sung with such sad eyes.

Judy Garland had such a wretched life that it puts a top spin on some of her songs. Over The Rainbow becomes more a song of heartbreak than of yearning. Doris Day had a life of sufficient jagged edges, but she turned to dogs not drugs. Dogs not drugs. If only Judy had learned that lesson how much happier her life would have been.

So, what's the rest of the story? She said that the song was leading up to something that would make three special people in her life very happy.

That style of collar works better for her than it does for Hillary.
