Favoriting Acid Jazz Hands with Bronwyn Bishop: Playlist from January 14, 2022 Favoriting

Bronwyn Bishop's avatar View Bronwyn Bishop's profile Favoriting

Musical theater from off the beaten path. Obscure and unusual show tunes from within the canon and without, flops, failures, and the newest works from up-and-coming artists—plus tried-and-true hits. Also, occasional appearances from songs that are not show tunes (but only if they go really well with show tunes).

I knew this (Til there was you) as a Beatles song before I realized it came from The Music Man. McCartney did a nice version of it, I think. Simple but effective.

Bronwyn, you were kidding about the AI program, but you know that's going to happen some day. That is, not just pairing old tapes with modern accompaniment, but manufacturing brand new songs out of whole cloth: John Lennon singing a Britney Spears song, say. Commercial gold!
