When I was about 12 the movie Flashdance came out and I bought the tape and memorized the entire thing. One day in the car my favorite song came on to shich the real words are "take my passion and make it happen" in reference to the dancer in the movie. My dad was listening to my version rather than the one on the radio that goes " take my pants down and make it happen." Now that I have kids and they say something cute he reminds me of this moment.
