Playlist For Sunday, Nov. 25, 2018: Tis (Not) the Season!

I actually heard Christmas music today on ANOTHER radio station. On November 20th! Two days before Thanksgiving. Well, I guess it's Thanksgiving's own fault. If it really wanted to be a holiday one paused at (not skipped over), it would have its own music. Damn few Thansgiving-y tunes out there to whistle. Rest assured tho, there will be no Christmas Broadway on THIS program, til the tree gets decorated (and cat-attacked), several eggs are "nogged", and cookie sprinkles/fake snow/confetti festoon my wall-to-wall. Then, and only then, will we Fa La La.

Standards, folks.

And speaking of standards, how 'bout some more of that My Fair Lady revival? And that throwback to the 70s,  Applause? Some sappy ballads and Paris (through the window)? How 'bout Christine Baranski (and Everybody Else) from flops/bagels/pits of despair also-rans? As yummy as figgy pudding...oops! (Darn it all...I slipped!) And remembering when we used to hear telephones ring, and run to answer them, because we might "miss an important call!" It's all here/hear, helping us mark time til it's Santa Baby time in the Rockies.

Enjoy your feast, friends, and save some leftovers for Broadway on Sunday!
