Favoriting Acid Jazz Hands with Bronwyn Bishop: Playlist from February 28, 2020 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).

You know, this reminds me that Loony Tunes will forever be associated with Barber of Seville in my head. Much like Madam Butterfly will be associated with the simpsons forever in my head. Hello everyone!

Today is the second time I've heard of studio C, after thinking it was just A, and B (which I only knew about because of construction stuff last year).

this song is so good.

WR:

Seems I recall the " take good care of yourself you belong to me" tune was in a cartoon as well, maybe Betty Boop or maybe just in my head...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:30pm
Cmurtha:

Could be. Though I think it may be just like how "I wanna be bad" was (originally?) song by the woman who Betty Boop was modeled off of Helen Kane. But, I don't know.

I am going to keep pretending they wrote only a single musical/play about all those items, rather than them having written a musical about each of those things.

@Cmurtha: A musical where Abraham Lincoln, Gertrude Stein, Aristophanes and Saint Joan team up to save Christmas from Winnie the Pooh, and along the way Abe/Aristophanes and Gertrude/Joan fall in love and get into gay relationships
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:02pm
Cmurtha:

You know, that's oddly close to what I imagined. Only the Villain was Gertrude, because there's something comic about imaging her and Lincoln brawling.

I love it! Great minds!!

Cmurtha:

I feel like, if you didn't lose her at "What do I gotta do to be with you" following it up with LOLOLOLOL did not help the cause. Oh man, this boy be simping. Fun song though

Someone played a period recording of Hey Big Spender this week. Listening to this I thought it was Male vocalist, and looked and bing bing bing it is lyricist Fields herself. My head is spinning.

I love that they do a "Lyrics and Lyricists" series! Lyricists never get the spotlight and I appreciate the Y for trying to correct that

@WR: I thought it was a man too at first and thought "who is this dude stealing Dorothy's spotlight." (sorry Dorothy)

And more spinning realizing that I am referring to the 60s as "period"...
