We hear Neil singing "Hello Again" in the background.

The camera pans
inside the window,
finding Neil shaving and
singing in the bathroom.

"Great rehearsal kids!!!
 Don't leave the harp in the tub again!"

As Neil leaves the house
he is met by his letter carrier.
Mel: Morning, Mr. Diamond.
Neil: Oh, hi Mel! What have you got for me today?
Mel: Your next hit. I think I really got it this time."
Neil: Oh great, maybe I can read it when I get home. I'm in a rush and I don't have that much time.
Mel: "I always have time to deliver your mail...you know,  your royalties."

Neil: OK , let's have a look here.
(Neil reads the song lyrics.)

What happened to your kisses
Where is that perky smile?
I guess it's with the love we had
In some dead letter file.

Mel: Of course it would sound better if you sang it.
Neil: Yeah, you keep working on it, Mel. Look, I gotta go. I'm doing a special tonight.
Mel: Oh I know, and before I forget...my wife said to say thank you for the tickets.
Neil: No problem, Mel.
Mel: Do they come with binoculars?

Neil is driving down the highway and we hear a DJ on the radio:

"This is Rick Dees, the world's only living brain donor. Let me tell you about Neil Diamond.
You know his special tapes tonight and for a preview here's Neil's new single, "Headed for the Future." Pretty catchy title from a guy who, I hear, thinks up songs in his dreams! Wonder what he was dreaming when he thought this one up? 20  years of hits and still rockin'!!"
