[QUOTE="Crimson, post: 444513, member: 5079"] I admit I prefer the season 1 lyrics. Perhaps the lyrical match to the first season's delicate melancholy wasn't as applicable from S2 onward, but "Who can turn the world on with her smile?" -- iconic as it became -- seems overly extravagant for sweet Mary Richards; better suited to the final seasons. Someone -- you? -- once suggested that perhaps the lyrics should have been gently tweaked season over season to reflect the show's evolution; although maybe constantly changing it would have prevented it from becoming iconic.
