Eric Dane (born November 9, 1972) is an American actor. After appearing in television roles throughout the 2000s, he became known for playing Dr. Mark "McSteamy" Sloan on the medical drama television series Grey's Anatomy, as well as films, co-starring in Marley & Me, Valentine's Day, and Burlesque. He currently stars as Commander Tom Chandler in the apocalyptic drama The Last Ship.
Dane was born in San Francisco, California to a homemaker mother, Leah, and an interior designer/architect father. He has a younger brother. Dane was raised in his mother's Jewish religion (he had a Bar Mitzvah ceremony). He attended Sequoia High School in Redwood City, California, from 1987 to 1990, and San Mateo High School in San Mateo, California, from 1990 to 1991, where he graduated. Dane was an athlete in high school, playing on the Boys' Varsity water polo team, but decided to pursue a career in acting after appearing in a school production of Arthur Miller's All My Sons.
In 1993, Dane moved to Los Angeles, where he played small roles in the television series Saved by the Bell, The Wonder Years, Roseanne, and Married... with Children, among others. But in 2000, he was signed for a recurring role in Gideon's Crossing, and followed this with a two-season run in Charmed. His made-for-television film credits included two biopics, Serving in Silence (about Margarethe Cammermeyer's experiences in the military), and Helter Skelter, in which he portrayed Charles "Tex" Watson, a member of the Manson family.
You're O.K.
your smart
you're in
I've got so many problems
my life is such a mess
I need some tender lovin'
just give me your address.
You've got so many problems
Your life is such a mess
But if you start complaining
No girl's gonna say: yes
You're O.K.
you're smart
you're in
Yes I know
yes I know
I'm a supergirl
And I love to be with you
You've got a style and your smile means the world to me
But I won't marry you
Well
you can call me after eight
Hot number 31024
If you should care to go
To the midnight show
And if you're still in shape
Together we could taste
The greatest strawberry sunday on the Camps-Elysees
You're O.K.
you're smart
you're in
It's easier together
than being all alone
Life can be much better
when you're not on your own
It's easier together
than being alone
But when love is all what matters you're feelin' like a clown.
You're O.K.
you're smart
you're in
Yes I know
yes I know
I'm a supergirl
You stay up sitting there
lonely as can be
Better dance for me
better sing with me
You're O.K.
you're smart
you're in
