    On Dancing With the Stars Nicole(Snookie) & Sasha just danced to The Foundation's "Build Me Up Buttercup". I have always assumed that Glenn's line "You're my Buttercup, oh build me up" in True Love was taken from this song so when I hear BMUB I think of True Love.

    haha yeah you could say it's addressed to him...

    my boyfriend didn't think twice about it...he knows it's just a beautiful lyric from a beautiful song by one of my favorite bands that I already do direct at him when I sing along to it
    If I can't have it all, just a taste will do...

    Oh, is that where that lyric is from? I've never heard that song so I thought Glenn and/or Jack Tempchin just made it up, lol. Learn something new every day!

    Always in our hearts, Never forgotten

    I can't be positive but it seems like too much of a coincidence.

    But it's 'fill me up'.

    I agree it is similar but I never made a connection.

    I finally remembered to look this up online and it seems our tour guide who gave us the above answer may have taken some liberty with his historical version. Then again, he was the tour guide to Graceland and maybe Elvis told him about the Civil War general. Anyway, the above version does sound more exciting and I am not saying that it didn't happen BUT

    According to several sites online.......
    "Traveling north/south from Monroe to South Court between Main and Second, this alley name commemorates November 6, 1934, when voters elected for Memphis to build or buy an electrical distribution system that would use cheaper electricity from Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA). That same month, Maiden Lane was changed to November 6th Street in observance of the event."

    Besides being Glenn's birthday, I find it amusing that the previous name was Maiden Lane. Because how many fair maiden's hearts has Glenn broken?
