Me and My Girl is a musical with music by Noel Gay and its original book and lyrics by Douglas Furber and L. Arthur Rose. The musical is set in the late 1930s and tells the story of an unapologetically unrefined cockney gentleman named Bill Snibson, who learns that he is the 14th heir to the Earl of Hareford. The action is set in Hampshire, Mayfair and Lambeth.
The musical had a successful original run in the West End in 1937, and was turned into a film in 1939, titled The Lambeth Walk, named after one of the show's songs. "The Lambeth Walk" was also the subject of a news story in The Times of October 1938: "While dictators rage and statesmen talk, all Europe dances – to The Lambeth Walk." The show also included the song "The Sun Has Got His Hat On".
After returning to the West End briefly in 1952, the musical's book received a revision by Stephen Fry with Mike Ockrent in the 1980s. This revised version of Me and My Girl also included the song "Leaning on a Lamp-post". It opened in the West End in 1985 and received two Laurence Olivier Awards before transferring to Broadway in 1986 and winning three of its 11 Tony Award nominations.

My Girl 2 is a 1994 comedy-drama film starring Anna Chlumsky, Dan Aykroyd, Christine Ebersole, Jamie Lee Curtis, Richard Masur, Austin O'Brien, and Roland Thomson. It's a sequel to 1991's My Girl.
All cast members from the first film except for Macaulay Culkin, Griffin Dunne, Ann Nelson, and Peter Michael Goetz appear in it.
A book based on the script was written by Patricia Hermes in 1994.
Set two years after the first film, in the Spring of 1974, Vada Sultenfuss (Anna Chlumsky) goes on a quest to learn more about her deceased biological mother. She has matured over the past year and a half (since the first movie), going from the spunky, eleven-year-old hypochondriac to a lively, yet more serious teenager seeking independence. Her father, Harry (Dan Aykroyd), has married Shelly DeVoto (Jamie Lee Curtis), and they are expecting a baby. They still live in the Sultenfuss' funeral home in Madison, Pennsylvania, while her Uncle Phil (Richard Masur) has moved to Los Angeles where he works as a mechanic. Vada's grandmother has also died and Vada still wears the mood ring that reminds her of her late friend Thomas J.

Me & My (real names Susanne Georgi, born July 27, 1976 and Pernille Georgi, born July 24, 1974) are a Danish Eurodance-bubblegum sister duo signed under the EMI record label. They are best known for their first international hit song "Dub-I-Dub" (1995), which has been featured on many compilations including the Dancemania series albums. "Dub-I-Dub" went on to sell one million copies worldwide, while their self-titled debut album sold two million copies.
Before becoming Me & My, the two were known as "SuPer Sisters" (the word "SuPer" being a compound of the two singers' first names). Towards the beginning of the 1990s they released two Danish-language albums and tried to enter the Eurovision Song Contest 1991, but Susanne, then 15, and Pernille, then 17, were too young to enter the contest. The song which they were supposed to sing, eventually finished second in the Danish national final.
Besides attaining a reasonable level of popularity in Europe, the duo have also gained fans around the world due to their songs "Dub-I-Dub" and "So Many Men" being licensed by Toshiba-EMI Ltd. (the Japanese division of EMI) for the popular arcade video game series, Dance Dance Revolution. Despite the tracks debuting in the games in 1999 and 2000 respectively, they are still firm favourites with players of the game, and "Dub-I-Dub" was included as one of several classic tracks on the tenth-anniversary DDR game, DDR X, released in May 2008.
Me and my girl gotta get to heaven.
We'll get there on a 747.

And I kept coming back for more.
Yeah, I kept back for more.
Me and my girl got to stick together.
We've got the kind of love like the weather.
Well, I'll be shining all day long,
Even when the sun is gone,
'Cause she has shown me rain before.
She has shown me rain before
And I could use a little more.
I don't know why we do the things we do, the things we do, we do.
I don't know why we do the things we do, the things we do, we do.
But I can do a little more.
Yeah, I could use a little more.
Me and my girl we are perfect for each other.
I can be her baby and she can be my mother.

And I know I can give her more.
Yeah, I know I can give her more.
Me and my girl gonna make it right.
We got the kind of love that can put up, up a fight
And I don't ever scream or shout even when she knocks me out
'Cause she has knocked me out before.
She has knocked me out before
And I kept giving up for more.
Yeah, I kept giving up for more.
I don't know why we do the things we do, the things we do, we do.
I don't know why we do the things we do, the things we do, we do.
No, I don't know why we do the things we do, the things we do, we do.
