In honor of Love Day here on HHW, here's Melba Moore and "I Got Love"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mu5KCwr6dTM

[Jrand74]

TOD:

HMMMMMMMMM.....

I Was a Teenage Horror Medley from JEEPERS CREEPERS

and two from UNSUNG BERLIN

I'm The Guy Who Guards the Harem

How Can I Change My Luck?

[Jrand74]

DR TCB - Patty Duke may have sung "You Don't Own Me", but this might be the record you had.

I was fortunate that I found love over 30 years ago. I think he still likes me.

[ArnoldMBrockman]

And the word of the day is: KLOOF!

And The Song Of The Day Is:  THE FARMER IN THE DELL

[FJL]

TOD: 
Can you do any of the songs you wrote for OUTSIDE THE BOX, or do those not count?  So much great stuff to choose from there.

And could you do "Hello Dolly" for your Grammy nominated album, and say hello to people you recognize the way Carol Channing did - or does that not qualify?


A plug for "Things Change" which you did so beautifully in the NYMF presentation in 2006, from Last Starfighter.

TOD: "She Wasn't You" -- the one Brent Barrett sings on his album

[Jrand74]

Que es un "love"?

[singdaw]

Love takes time...


This arrived in today's mail:

And the word of the day is: KLOOF!

Isn't that the dish that Sandra makes with beets and kidney beans?

[TCB]

Well, I must go to bed.  Last night, I didn't get to sleep until after 4:00 am.  The neighbors were having a party and it just loud enough to be annoying, but not bad enough for me to get out of bed and knock on their door.

It's very quiet now, so I'm going to enjoy my sleep.  Good night.

I have only once had to get out of bed and go kniock on the door because of noise.  Of course, the fact that I sleep in the nude might have had something to do with it.

[TCB]

THAT looks disgusting.

Good suggestions, but we've done many of the songs listed.  I have to match song to singer.  Something from Jeepers Creepers never occurred to me actually - not sure where any of that music is, unfortunately, or if any of that medley is actually available.

[bk]

Spent forty-five minutes this morning watching Sandy run the act for tomorrow - lots of notes, but I had to toddle off for the breakfast thing so we'll run the last twenty minutes this afternoon, then I'll give notes and some lighting suggestions.

[bk]

Then I had some eggs benedict and a fun breakfast with helper and her mom.

[ryacko]

Greetings BK and DR's,

My weekend was hijacked with long rehearsals and two performances for the very theater where I am doing the new play. Oy. Endless weekend. Day off today. Ahhh, all better.

The Miracle Worker. Such an amazing film that made a lifelong impression on me at first viewing. So powerful.

Oh, Love. I remember that. I think. Oddly enough, BK, as you were sorting through your Love list, the song that came to mind was "Love for Sale". Hmmmmm.

And the recording that came to mind was the oddly wonderful version done by The Manhattan Transfer on their second album. Half of it is a country laced instrumental, then turns into almost an Andrews Sisters vocal. Why ever did I remember that one? Hmmmm.

Oh, and here is it:

I'll order the CD in the morning.

CD has been ordered.

I LOVE The Manhattan Transfer!!

[George]

Just had to share.

[George]

Topic of the Day:
 
I just happen to have "Broadway Bound" on a shelf right behind me and I'll suggest these:
 
Everybody Wants to Be Sondheim - sung by Guy Haines
Ninas [from Showing Off] - sung by Christopher Durang and Jonathan Freeman
Watching the Show [from The Times] - sung by Michael Rupert

I haven't listened to this in a while.  I think I'll take it to work today.

I brought it to work with me and I'm listening to it right now.

[John G.]

(The movie soundtrack, not the original cast album.)

Yup. You can tell. They took a subtle design and made it all porno by highlighting the coupling in the trees.

Look forward to listening to that later.

Except that they edited out a couple In flagrante delicto that was actually on the Broadway cast album cover.

[George]

Enjoyed today's song. I love the songs (by anyone) that take a musical theatre trope (like "I Love You") and twist it in some way.

I had this idea for a CD compilation of love songs that never use the word love, or specifically say "I love you."  For instance, "I've Grown Accustomed To Her Face" or "How Deep Is the Ocean."  Songs like that.  Or even "A Quiet Thing"...even though that's not a love song at all, it could easily be used as a love song.

[George]

Love takes time...


This arrived in today's mail:

I ordered it, too!  Hopefully, mine will arrive soon!

[George]

Brent Barrett's "New Words"...or ANY song recorded by Brent Barrett!

I do too! I've seen them live 6 or 7 times since their early days. The last time I saw them was 2009 and they were still flawless.
