Sorry fearless travelers into Showtune land. It's been a long, been a long, been a long, been a long day....name that musical by the way and come on along to week four of STT. I'm not posting the intro tonight because I'm so late that I don't have time to copy and paste!
So even though last week was "leading men" night, and tonight I wanted to do leading ladies, I wanted also to give that equal time and attention, so I think we will get to leading ladies next week (the, ahem, penultimate STT before Election night showtunes!)
Tonight, I thought we should just do a little bit of an open thread where we just name our favorite show tunes and then do little dances in our living rooms. I have thousands of favorites, but I'll start off the party with a song that is from my very favorite show: Lady Be Good! The song is The Half of it Dearie Blues and in this version, it is sung in the original recording of Fred Astaire, which recording also featured his amazing tap number. It's a cool video with great still photos that accompany his singing.
There are so many great songs out there. What do you want to share?
Enjoy this edition of Show Tune Tuesdays! I know I sure will, by golly.
