"Cherish" is a song by American singer #Madonna from her fourth studio album, #LikeAPrayer (1989). It was written and produced by Madonna and #PatrickLeonard, and was released by #SireRecords as the album's third single on August 1, 1989. "Cherish" was built around the themes of love and relationships, with #WilliamShakespeare's #RomeoAndJuliet being one of the major inspirations. The track also included a line from "Cherish" by the 1960s band #theAssociation.

"(Just Like) Romeo and Juliet" is a song written by Bob Hamilton and #FreddieGorman, first made famous by the 1964 hit recording by #theReflections. The song is the first person narrative of a young man who plans to find a job so that he can buy his girlfriend presents and a car to take her out on dates. He fears that if he fails to find gainful employ, their love will fall apart, a situation he likens to the famous tragedy #RomeoAndJuliet.

Rosaline is what happens when someone skims the SparkNotes for Romeo and Juliet and decides what it really needs is a Roxette soundtrack and a Trump joke. If this is your idea of a comedy, I’d rather watch Men in Tights again.

A quotation from Shakespeare

JULIET:          Although I joy in thee,
   I have no joy of this contract tonight.
   It is too rash, too unadvised, too sudden,
   Too like the lightning, which doth cease to be
   Ere one can say “It lightens.”

William Shakespeare (1564-1616) English dramatist and poet
Romeo and Juliet, Act 2, sc. 2, l. 123ff (2.2.123-127) (1595)

Verona

The Italian city of love, as it is the city where supposedly the ultimately sad love story of Romeo and Juliet took place. It's a beautiful place, especially at the iconic and nearly two millennia old Ponte Pietra, looking out over the Adige river. I was lucky with this colourful evening sky. The water level that year was very low, laying bare the rocks that cause the rapids in the river.

So good film!

I was halfway through ‘Exit Music (for a film)’ when the blackout shut everything down here.

I suppose modern culture is in dispute about what a person should or shouldn’t learn. I think a Shakespeare piece or two is still definitely worthwhile.
