No, but you're thinking along the right lines.

What's the link between these pieces of music?
- "Getting to Know You" from the 1956 film version of The King and I
- The theme from the 1960 film Exodus
- The 1978 song, "Thank You For Being a Friend"
All recorded using the same piano?

Not the case with "Thank You For Being a Friend", but good catch on the other two! They're both part of Academy Award-winning soundtracks.

Too obvious = all written/composed by the same person?

Same librettist?

No, but actually rather close.

The answer involves more than one person.

Some other pieces of music I might have included:
- The Soundtrack for the 1959 film of On the Beach
- "I Could Have Danced All Night" from the 1964 film version of My Fair Lady
- The 1976 song, "Lonely Boy"

The range of songs boggles my mind.

Is this a dynasty sort of thing? Father-son-grandson writing team or succession?

I'll call that near enough for a country job, as my old dad used to say.

It's a family connection. Marni Nixon is a soprano who dubbed the singing voices of film actresses in several well-known movies, including The King and I, West Side Story and My Fair Lady. She was married to the composer Ernest Gold, who wrote soundtracks including Exodus and On the Beach. Their son was Andrew Gold, of Lonely Boy and Thank You for Being a Friend.

Of the three, Nixon is the only one still alive. I heard a radio interview with her a few years ago - she's had an interesting life! Her dubbing role was kept secret until Deborah Kerr quite deliberately (to help Nixon's career) let it slip in an interview - Nixon was contractually obliged to keep it quiet.

Well done, Pooh! Take it away.
