    >>>The true Brit singer couldn`t force himself to say `You and me` 
to make the
rhyme
with `heavenly'<<<

It's a shame he didn't force himself, because it wouldn't only have 
rhymed, it
would have been grammatically correct.  How I cringe when "I" is 
wrongly used in
place of "me."  And on television, on the news, even!,
