This is a random question, but does the track "Vienna" on Linda Eder's "It's Time" relate to this show in any way? I'm just not sure on the history of this song.

Tell me who wrote the lyrics and I'll have your answer.

Apaprently Gary Benson and Frank. Sooo, doubtful.

I think it's just a coincidence then. The only lyricists that worked on it, to my knowledge, were Steve Cuden and Nan Knighton before Jack became involved. Although...do the lyrics sound like they fit the story?

Not particularly. It's pretty ambiguous like "Only Love." It COULD fit into the story, but there isn't anything to suggest it was written for Rudolf. Here are the lyrics:

Watching the rain fall in Vienna
Pictures of another time
From the corner of a small cafe
We watched the world go by

Now we sit here the best of strangers
We played the game for all it's worth
Endless nights in Vienna's eyes
Take me back again

'Cause in Vienna- we were poetry
Yes, in Vienna- love was alive
Watching you watching me
All that our eyes could see
All of the nights
We chased into the dawn
It was the best time of my life

We can't surrender to a feeling
That dance belongs to yesterday
Yet, I still hear Vienna's song
Take me back again 'Cause in Vienna- we were poetry
Yes, in Vienna- love was alive
Watching you watching me
All that our eyes could see
All of the nights
We chased into the dawn
It was the best time of my life

'Cause in Vienna- we were poetry
Yes, in Vienna- love was alive
Watching you watching me
All that our eyes could see
All of the nights
We chased into the dawn
It was the best time of my life

I remember asking about this a few years back. The song "Vienna" was written for Linda's first album (1990), so the show "Vienna" would have already been under development then. But I was told that they were never connected.

Linda's father is Austrian, so the song held special meaning for them... I also know she had never been to Austria when she first recorded it.
