Above: Artist’s rendition of what a real life singing telegram service looks like.

This Valentine’s Day, you can express some love for that oh-so-special someone and the arts all at the very same time. The State Theatre has partnered with Avalon Floral and Obsession Chocolates to offer their “Sweet Notes” singing telegram service – just for Valentines’s Day.

Yep, you can send that extra-super special someone a real, live, honest-to-cupid singing telegram complete with long-stemmed roses and chocolates. There are four packages to choose from, ranging from $30–$85, and the proceeds go to support the Eau Claire Regional Arts Center. You can pick from 10 songs ...

1. I Will Always Love You
2. That's Amore!
3. You Are So Beautiful to Me
4. L-O-V-E
5. You Are My Sunshine
6. I Can't Help Falling in Love with You
7. It Had To Be You
8. Thank You for Being a Friend (Theme from "Golden Girls")
9. You've Got a Friend in Me (Toy Story)
10. You've Got a Friend (James Taylor)

You read that right. Option #8 is the theme from Golden Girls.
