“This is where all your dreams come true/ You are the Moulin Rouge!” – Harold Zidler in “Welcome to the Moulin Rouge!”
“A kiss on the hand may be quite continental/ But diamonds are a girl’s best friend” – Satine in “The Sparkling Diamond”

“I’m gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier/ I’m gonna live like tomorrow doesn’t exist, like it doesn’t exist/ I’m gonna fly like a bird through the night, feel my tears as they dry/ I’m gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier” – Harold Zidler, La Chocolat, Arabia and Baby Doll in “Chandelier”
