Happy 62nd birthday to KEANU REEVES, Canadian actor and musician. In Hawaiian, his first name means “cool breeze over the mountains” (thats so cool). He has always been so nice to look at, especially in the Lake House, pictured here with Sandra Bullock.

Mr. Mister put an ancient prayer into the middle of a No. 1 pop song.
"Kyrie," released in 1985, built its chorus around the Greek phrase "Kyrie eleison."
It means "Lord, have mercy."
Richard Page later said the song was, essentially, a prayer.
And in 1986, that prayer went all the way to No. 1.
I wonder how many of us were singing along without knowing what we were saying.
