I was fixing the P A system at Memorial field in Fremont, Ne. I had to play a tape then adjust their speakers to where the people sit. This song, "Making Love Alone" came on and there were 20 women walkers walking round the track.When this song came on they stopped and listened to it. I was then asked to go play it again. I did and these ladies got a real kick of listening to it. They said it made their day.

Written for her by Saturday Night Live writer Marilyn Suzannne Miller when she hosted November 1981

I saw her perform this song at the McCallum Theatre in Palm Desert years ago. Some of the older attendees walked out in feigned disgust. For the rest of us, it was an utter delight, as was she.

Speaks volumes of that wasteland that is the Coachella Valley. They're too stupid to get the irony that is their lives. (I know -- I lived in that dust bowl excuse of a community for 3 years.)

Not sure when this was taped, but she did this in her act well into the 90's when I saw her. It always generated an enthusiastic audience reaction.

@@rainespells1273 You may have to get it on DVD. It's Season 7 Episode 6. The Peacock network only shows "Best of..." versions of the 80s episodes and this song was cut. Some of the 80s episodes are less than 20 minutes long.

Bernadette Peters is a vocal miracle. I loved her back when she sang those fabulous songs. Now all she sings is Sondheim, which is very monotonous.
