Ah, SBB, you wound me! My iPod was stolen from my car in the dead of night, so I am unable to do an iPod shuffle. Sigh!
You Can Count on Me-Cleo Laine
Got a Bran' New Suit-Eleanor Powell
Hey Now Everybody-They Might Be Giants
Rent-Liza Minnelli (Thanks, Gregg)
Last Tango in Paris Suite: Part 10-Gato Barbieri

Gregg, that's terrible! Just do one in your head, then. ;-)
Hey, GQ - have you heard Liza's "Twist in my Sobriety"? It's terrible and I love it to pieces!
Gregg, why don't you do an iTunes shuffle instead, hm?
We went out for Indian (dots, not feathers) food to celebrate our anniversary (15th) on the way home from work tonight. Now that DH is fast asleep in front of the TV, here's my list:
Creepy Doll (Jonathan Coulton)
Moon Over Bourbon Street (Sting)
La Vie Boheme (Rent Original Broadway Cast
The Masochism Tango (Tom Lehrer)
You're Just In Love (Ethel Merman & Donald O'Connor)
Pet Sematary (The Ramones)
Holding Out for a Hero (Bonnie Tyler)
Dirty Rotten Number (Dirty Rotten Scoundrels Original Broadway Cast)
Sing For Your Supper (Mel Torme)
7 (Prince)
I love "Sing For Your Supper" and have never held Mel Torme do it.
And yes, I downloaded the entire Liza disco album and put it into iTunes. "Love Pains" is the one in my iPod, and I just added "Twist in My Sobriety."
And I just remembered I have two new CDs to put into iTunes: the original recording of "Ballad of Baby Doe" with Beverly Sills and the recent revival of "Pacific Overtures" with B.D. Wong.
I love Tormé's version of "Sing for your Supper." Very peppy and really shows off the fluidity of his voice.
As for Liza, what can I say? Have you heard her "Some People" from Gypsy? I got it from iTunes, then later saw the video on YouTube. Delicious.
I have <50 CDs to add to iTunes, so I'll be done this weekend. Just added "The Wall Live in Berlin" this morning before work. It was a little frustrating because, as with many 2 disc sets with multiple artists, disc 1 had all of the artist information listed and was marked as a compilation, but disc 2 listed only Roger Waters and was not marked as a compilation. We were not amused, but fixed it nonetheless. (We were amused when the database couldn't tell the difference between the Sugar Ray disc I'd put in and the US Marine Band CD it thought I'd put in.)
Okay, I'll play your silly game:
For Once in My Life-Tony Bennett
With a Little Help from My Friends-The Beatles
Alma de Acero-Lola Beltran
La Muerta-Francisco Avitia
What's Going On-Marvin Gaye
The Sad Cafe-Lorrie Morgan
Back Street Affair-John Prine
Over the Rainbow-Ella Fitzgerald
These Foolish Things-Etta James
Positive Vibrations-Bob Marley and the Wailers
I'm uploading my last cd as we speak. My whole collection will be represented now. That being said, here's mine:
"99 Luftballons" - Nena
"Growing Up" - Peter Gabriel
"Who Will You Run To" Heart
"Good Combination" - Sonny & Cher
"I'll Have To Say I Love You In A Song" - Clint Black
"Promises" - The Cranberries
"Friday I'm In Love" - Dryden Mitchell
"Sound-A-Sleep" - Blondie
"Lights" - The Scissor Sisters
"What We Really Want" - Rosanne Cash
I finally finished mine today, too, Waltie. Such a sense of accomplishment! Now I need more albums. (Have to break 1000.)
