Maureen McGovern was a secretary when she was hired by Russ Regan to sing the theme in the film The Poseidon Experience in 1973. It had been a #1 strike. The following season, McGovern sang the theme in the Towering Inferno, “WE MIGHT Never Love SUCH AS THIS Again,” that was not a strike, though it do earn an Academy Award. McGovern continued to other film themes, after that distanced herself from such function, showing up on Broadway within the Pirates of Penzance. She constructed a popularity as a complicated pop vocalist to the idea that she could headline at Carnegie Hall with the ’90s, performing present music and criteria by George Gershwin as well as other songwriters.
