It's the "You're my lucky star" scene.<br /><br />I guess I saw "Grease" for the first time on TV in the late 80's. The last time was a few months ago on blu-ray and I recommend it to everyone.

I'd never seen the clip for "Heaven Can Wait" though.

By which I mean the entire "God is going to destroy the world unless two unlikely (and undeserving) people can fall in love and thus prove the world is worthy of saving..."
