  • RIP, sir. Bernadette has always been one of those songs that makes me stand up a bit straighter and walk a bit sassier.
  • 1987. I was going to the University of Windsor and listening to a lot of Motown classics from the radio stations across the river. I was also spending a lot of time with a cute waitress from my local watering hole by the name of Bernadette. So, thanks for all that, Levi.
  • The reason I recognized his name immediately is because after seeing Little Shop of Horrors years ago, I had to know who was the voice of the plant. That was an amazing performance.
