Alice in Wonderland
I. About the Film
Alice in Wonderland (sometimes listed as Alice in Wonderland: An X-Rated Musical Comedy) is a 1976 American musical fantasy adult erotic film, loosely based on Lewis Carroll's book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. It was directed by Bud Townsend and starred Kristine De Bell as Alice. The film was favorably reviewed by film critic Roger Ebert in 1976.
The film initially received an X-rating in 1976 and subsequently, an R-rating a year later with three minutes cut from the film. It was later re-released on VHS with a somewhat grandiose title roll preceding the movie noting that quite a bit of hardcore footage had originally been shot, but "could not be included" at the time.
Born on January 27, 1832 in Daresbury, Cheshire, England, Charles Dodgson wrote and created games as a child. At age 20 he received a studentship at Christ Church and was appointed a lecturer in mathematics. Dodgson was shy but enjoyed creating stories for children. His books including "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" were published under the pen name Lewis Carroll. Dodgson died in 1898.

Beyonce - Love On Top
Bring the beat in!
Honey, honey I can see the stars all the way from here Can't you see the glow on the window pane? I can feel the sun whenever you're near Every time you touch me I just melt away
Now everybody asks me why I'm smiling out from ear to ear. (They say love hurts) But I know (It's gonna take the real work) Nothing's perfect, but it's worth it after fighting through my fears And finally you put me first
Baby it's you. You're the one I love. You're the one I need. You're the only one I see. Come on baby it's you.
You're the one that gives your all. You're the one I can always call. When I need you make everything stop. Finally you put my love on top.
Ooo! Come on Baby. You put my love on top, top, top, top, top. You put my love on top. Ooo Ooo! Come on baby. You put my love on top, top, top, top, top. My love on top. My love on top.
Come on Baby I can feel the wind whipping past my face. As we dance the night away. Boy your lips taste like a night of champagne. As I kiss you again, and again, and again and again.
Now everybody asks me why I'm smiling out from ear to ear. (They say love hurts) But I know (It's gonna take the real work) Nothing's perfect, but it's worth it after fighting through my fears. And finally you put me first.
Baby it's you. You're the one I love. You're the one I need. You're the only one I see. Come on baby it's you.
You're the one that gives your all. You're the one I can always call. When I need you make everything stop. Finally you put my love on top. Ooo! Baby. You put my love on top, top, top, top, top. You put my love on top.

Baby. Cuz You're the one that I love. Baby, you're the one that I need. You're the only thing I see. Baby baby it's you. You're the one that gives your all. You're the one that always calls. When I need you everything stops. Finally you put my love on top

I. About the Song
"Love On Top" is a song recorded by American singer Beyoncé for her fourth studio album 4 (2011). Inspired from her state of mind while playing Etta James in the 2008 musical biopic Cadillac Records, Beyoncé wrote the song alongsideTerius Nash, Belle Nuru, and Shea Taylor; its production was handled by Taylor and Beyoncé. A throw-back to 1980s music, the uptempo R&B song exhibits style similar to that of Stevie Wonder, Whitney Houston and The Jackson 5, among others. While incorporating four key changes, Beyoncé adopts a high range when repeating the song's chorus towards the end of the song. She sings about a man whom she can always call, even after facing grief and hard work, finally earning his love and respect.
The song's musical composition, as well as Beyoncé's vocals and versatility, positively surprised critics. Beyoncé sang "Love On Top" live at 2011 MTV Video Music Awards, announcing her pregnancy at the end of her performance. This caused the upsurge of the song on several charts worldwide. It reached the top ten in Hungary and South Korea, and the top twenty in Australia, Italy, New Zealand and the United Kingdom. It also debuted at number 20 on the US BillboardHot 100 chart and became the second highest debut of Beyoncé's career as a solo artist. "Love On Top" remained at number one on the US Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart for seven consecutive weeks, and has sold over one million copies. At the 55th Grammy Awards, Beyoncé won her 17th Grammy Award with Best Traditional R&B Performance for "Love On Top".
