    Hah! Well, the song is a reference to WAY back in Season One when the heroes first enter the town of Galana (Episode 05), and Peter begins singing that song, "I knew a Girl, from Galana, the things that she could do..." We were originally going to actually sing the lyrics (there's a full set of Lyrics to that song we made up) to the Copacabana music.

    You endured the original versions - I have been re-filming in 1080p HD (and I've learned much more since I originally made this series!)

    But so glad you liked it! Was an absolutely blast to make - and one of the VERY few creative endeavors that I began - and finished! The series means SO much to my heart - which is why I came back to it, and decided to do it in 1080p HD - to give it a clean look. (And ideally, make DVDs!)

    Oh! That song! It kept coming up throughout. I thought it was based on The Girl From Iphanema, because the title sounded similar.

    Meh. I've endured worse on...
    I was going to say this computer, but actually, on my last computer (I replaced it earlier this year).

    Yeah, finishing is always the hard part - I always say, pick one, stick to it. Creative types keep thinking of new things to create, and we need to learn to stop letting that distract us.

    Hah - no, had never heard of that song before? (But then, honestly, if it's outside of Heavy Metal, Kenny Rogers {my father's influence}, Julio Igleasas {mother's influence} or Michael Jackson - there's a good chance I may not know it. Or at least not by title alone.

    That is the current bane of my writing existence...

    The most famous version, I believe, is Sinatra - YouTube it; you'll probably know it when you hear it.

    It's a similar general genre / period to Copacobana.
