Stars in My Eyes


Two record players set to begin and play simultaneously. One record plays the song "Don't Let the Stars Get In Your Eyes" sung by Perry Como while the other counters with "I let the Stars Get in My Eyes" sung by Goldie Hill. Though each recording is at a different pace and musical style, the call and response of the competing lyrics is recognizable as a dialogue if listened to carefully. Both songs end at the same time leaving a few minutes of silence. Both songs were written by Slim Willet, the second composed as a response to the initial hit song.
