Lyrics(That remind us of Cranny.)

No Me Queda Mas (english Translation)
By selena

I have no choice now but lose myself
In an abyss of sadness and tears
I have no choice now but to bear my loss
And wish you happiness
I have no choice now if today
Your return would be impossible
And this that wasn’t love, this that you deny today

What you say never happened
Is the sweetest memory in my life
I had hoped from the bottom of my soul
That one day you would stay with me
And i even maintained the illusion
That fed my heart, my heart that today
Has to see you only as a friend

And even though i lived in love
And i was totally wrong i don’t care,
Because this really was love
For me, the lovliest, the greatest love
And even though you will forever turn your back on it,
It was the most beautiful

--><-----><-----><-----><-----><-----><---

Como La Flor (english Translation)
By Selena

I know that you have a new love
Even still, i wish you the best
If in me you didn't find happiness
Maybe someone else will give it to you
Like the flower, with so much love
You gave to me, it withered
I'm leaving today
I know how to lose
But, oh, how it hurts

If you saw how it hurt to lose you love
With your goodbye, you take my heart
I don't know if i'll be able to love again
Because i gave you all the love i could give

--><-----><-----><-----><-----><-----><---

If I Fell - The beatles

If I fell in love with you, Would you promise to be true,
And help me understand
Cause I've been in love before, And found that
love was more, Than just holding hands

If I give my heart to you, I must be sure from the
very start That you, Would love me more than her

If I trust in you, Oh please, Don't run and hide
If I love you too, Oh please, Don't hurt my pride like her
Cause I couldn't stand the pain, And I,
Would be sad if our new love, Was in vain

So I hope you'll see, That I, Would love to love you
And that she, Will cry, When she learns we are two,
Cause I couldn't stand the pain
And I, Would be sad if our new love, Was in vain

So I hope you'll see, That I, Would love to love you
And that she, Will cry, When she learns we are two
If I fell in love with you

Quotes

Craig: So, um, Manny, you wanna dance?
Manny: Me?
Craig: (smiles) Yeah.

Manny: Hey, you're late and I'm freezing, so you need to warm me up.
Craig: (giggle) I can do that.

Craig: Manny, I made a huge mistake. You're the one for me okay. Look, not Ashley and I'm gonna tell her that. Okay it's you, it's always been you.

Manny: Craig, you so get me.
Craig: That's good, right?
Manny: Yeah, it means you really do care about me after all.

Un-aired Scene from Holiday - Thanks to QueenJess

CRAIG - So you're not mad at me?

MANNY - For hanging up on me last night? Just a little. But if you go to Angela's skating pageant tonight, I'll overlook it.

Craig looks at her, confused. Manny starts to pretend ice skate around him, charming.

MANNY - The class I teach is performing.

SPINNER - Yo, Craig.

Craig and Manny look up, Spinner's waiting at the M.I. doorway, watching, curious. Manny grins, "skates" off.

MANNY - Find me.

Craig walks up, nonchalant, as they enter class.

SPINNER - Dude, did I just see you flirting?

CRAIG - No. She was flirting with me.

Craig catches Ashley's eye - she smiles. He smiles back. Spinner leads him off, quieter.

SPINNER - Well, if the love ever dies between you and Ash -

CRAIG - Whoa. Why would you say that?

SPINNER - Just- you've got a hot little poker waiting in the fire..

CRAIG - So Manny's not sweet, or talented, or fun, or caring. Just hot?

SPINNER - I don't know. Yeah?

yay for new thread!

80sBabygirl

Yea for a new thread! I wish we could have done something special for being on thread #15, but the main page still looks great.

jadorexme

Yay new thread! #15, that's awesome!

LotusRises

ok new question to keep it going...

if manny had kept the baby how could you see Voices Carry panning out?

QueenJess

If she kept the baby then Cranny would probably still be together.

jadorexme

That's hard to say cause it would've been completely different cause crash wouldn't have gotten together & cranny would probably still be together.

80sBabygirl

Good question, but tough to answer. Well, Crash wouldn't be together. I think Craig would have made good on his promise to stick by Manny because he really wants a family. I think they would struggle quite a bit though. Craig's bipolar might have been triggered full-force by the baby or a fight he had with Manny over the baby. I think Manny would promise to stick by Craig the way he did for her. And they might discuss whether bipolar might be inherited by the baby.

JazminM5

Yay! New thread!

jadorexme

I hadnt even thought of that...that wouldve added an interesting little plot to the episode.

LotusRises

they will definitely have to discuss whether the baby inherited the diorder.

my only scare would be if in his manic episode craig hit the baby out of rage.
