    I need to get a Netflix password or account. And a smart tv. I want to see this for sure

  • I spent 6 weeks cutting, now in back to strength training and working to put on about 10lbs.   So during my push-pull days I always open up with a more lengthy band-stretching routine.   So it's a good 20 minutes of getting loosened up.  During that time, I always tend to listen to more orchestrated music before getting into something heavier. Hanz Zimmer is one of my favorite modern composers and I love this soundtrack as well.

  • I was actually listening to a raft of Broadway Tunes. Going to do another CD for fun this time from Broadway.

    Consider doing your version of La Vie En Rose perhaps.     (It has been done by many others besides Satchmo)   The original was performed by Edith Piaf. The song became very popular in the US in 1950 with no fewer than seven different versions reaching the Billboard charts. These were by Tony Martin, Paul Weston, Bing Crosby (recorded June 22, 1950),[3] Ralph Flanagan, Victor Young, Dean Martin, and Louis Armstrong.[4]

    But, I guess I don't see where it was ever incorporated into a Broadway show.

    That's the idea. There's a lot more standard covers I love but I'm trying just to keep it to Broadway.

    So far I'm considering

    Memories from cats

    The Impossible Dream

    Luck be a lady tonight

    You'll Never Walk Alone

    The port of Amsterdam

    Too Much Heaven on their minds

    Somewhere

    The Phantom of the Opera and maybe Music of the Night

    Days of Wine and Roses, I'm not sure it was ever on Broadway but it is a show...

    Maybe if ever I would leave you from Camelot

    Maybe what kind of fool am I?

    Don't know if I could pull off a version have a traditional female vocal but Don't Cry For Me Argentina? 

    I considered trouble in River City but it's too damn much work.. Robert Preston is one of the greatest of all time but sticking with the music man I could do Till There Was You

    "Somewhere" was one of my two alternatives along with "Maria" from WS Story.

    "Don"t Cry For Me Argentina" is a great song. I actually have money I bought from the internet with her on their $100 peso banknote

    How about this one,  it is really a sad song,  from just about the greatest musical:

  • AxeA Axe

    Speaking of great vocalists, this woman is incredible. Another from the greatest open air music festival on earth. Wacken...

     I've seen Nightwish and I don't know how tall Floor Jansan is but I'm 6'5 and we seemed to be eye to eye.

    Another highlighting her abilities.

    DAMN.  Now that girl has a set of pipes and great control.  

    @gumby73    Gave the Smith & Meyers video a look...    Saw shinedown in Columbus when I was 16 and they put on a pretty good show, not my favorite band of that era, but they had some hits.  Still - outstanding vocals there and a genre cover you wouldn't necessarily expect.  

  • Lost in that Nu-metal are was a 3 piece I saw in Columbus like I told Gumby... but I'm pretty sure it was the next spring? (2005?)    Underrated group, always loved their bassists tone.  Pretty decent live show from what I remember.  Still, any band that touches on things like the over-prescribing of ritalin and the Bernie Madoff scheme has my attention.
