I take it Bill is waiting for a (w)hole note?

In that regard, there was a short movie or video years ago about a guy who
had a singing genital for his vaudeville act. He could not find his true
love until one day he met a female who had, you guessed it, a singing
genital. 

The ventriloquism was quite well done, microphones placed properly etc.

Once they both realized it, they made beautiful music together, which was as
I recall  a Jeanette McDonald - Nelson Eddy duet, (Indian Love Call?) that
started "When I'm Calling You . . . . "

TRUE STORY which hopefully some other old guys like Bill G or me might
remember it in a little more detail.
