Lew Bundles Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 While I'm on this Hee Haw kick, does anybody have the appearance by Eric on the Acadamy Awards singing "Hungry Eyes"...I have it somewhere but wouldnt even begin to figure out where the hell it is...I have a bad habit of taping things and never labelling them...

Tony Cartmill Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 Don't remember it being nominated or Eric being on the show. "Time of My Life" was... Bernie would have put it in the book.Are you messin' with us BundleShorts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachberry Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 ERic did do the song on the awards show. I just did not tape it, because I did not know he was going to be on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lew Bundles Posted August 25, 2005 Author Share Posted August 25, 2005 IS it on one of those tapes?..They had the artists from Dirty Dancin' sing a couple of verses from their songs on the sountrack...Eric(if I recall correctly) was sitting on the top row of some moving facade and sang two versus...He was wearing a sequined shirt and was snapping his fingers very vigourously as he sang along...No guitar, just a hand held mic...

Don_Krider Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 To the best of my knowledge, Eric didn't sing the tune on the Academy Awards. He did since it in 1987 on the American Music Awards show complete with the Dirty Dancing dancers surrounding him --- it was done as if he was singing from a chair in a movie theater audience watching the film (as actual Dirty Dancers "made out" in the seats around him and the video for "Hungry Eyes" played on a screen). Kinda cool --- since Whitney Houston introduced Eric and seemed excited to be doing so! Could that be the performance you mentioned?Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don_Krider Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 Correction: "...He did since it in 1987 on the American Music Awards..." --- the word "since" should be "sing"; so much for my journalism education...Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
