Inventive Rhymes

[edit]

The "inventive rhymes" you cite aren't rhymes at all. Hart knew this. It's ironic; he intentionally did it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.140.179.240 (talk) 19:32, 6 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bette Midler?

[edit]

Why is there a Bette Midler discography at the foot of the "Manhattan" (song) article? Wouldn't something about Rogers and Hart be more apropos? -- 96.245.109.133 (talk) 00:33, 24 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The Bronx Zoo is not free

[edit]

I don't go back to the Rodgers and Hart era; I was born in 1947. I don't think the Bronx zoo has ever been free during my lifetime, and I would like to see a reference validating the assertion in the article. Peter S. Shenkin (talk) 17:52, 30 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

'We'll take Manhattan...'

[edit]

Versions section, last sentence: 'For many years during the 1960s and 1970s, radio station WABC-AM used the notes from the "We'll take Manhattan" lyric' There is no such lyric. The words are: We'll turn Manhattan into an isle of joy. https://genius.com/Rodgers-and-hart-manhattan-lyrics I am correcting the article accordingly.
