The Peanuts -- It's Been A Long, Long Time

Man, that really was an ENDGAME!

There was a reason that May Day yesterday was devoid of any "Kayo Kyoku Plus" entries and the above photo should make that abundantly clear. Yup, I did catch "Avengers: Endgame" at the Scotiabank Theatre with my movie buddy, and despite a number of questions in terms of plot holes (time travel will do that to a script), it was quite the epic end to the very first decade of Marvel movies...and a movie that did need its share of Kleenex by the end of "Endgame".

One song popped up for one scene which summed up one character's arc, and that would be the gorgeously delivered "It's Been A Long, Long Time" originally by the Harry James Orchestra and Kitty Kallen back in 1945. Cue copious waterworks.

Now, since this is a kayo blog, allow me to make the connection here with The Peanuts'（ザ・ピーナッツ）rendition of "It's Been A Long, Long Time" which was supposedly released in 1961 according to the YouTube uploader. No incredible James trumpet here but Emi and Yumi provide a nice cover punctuated for effect by a warm sax solo. Glad to bring in some sort of "Avengers" association here.

It makes me wonder whether "It's Been A Long, Long Time" will become one of the slow dances of the prom season.

Had a hearty dinner at a Japanese fusion restaurant.
This is Carrot Cake with Shio Konbu.
