Born to lose the movie...
Remember the old country song, "Born to Lose?" The sad tale of a luckless lover, the song was introduced in 1942, but it wasn�t until 1962, when Ray Charles recorded the song, that it soared to the top of the music charts as a million dollar hit with these words: Born to lose, I've lived my life in vain Every dream has only brought me pain All my life, I've always been so blue Born to lose and now I'm losing you The song also became a part of America�s vocabulary -- the synonym for hard luck. Even Frank & Ernie used in a famous cartoon where St. Peter asks a newcomer to Heaven, "Is it true that in a previous life you were a French painter?" The newcomer�s reply: "Yes, I was born Toulose." |
