I think I've totally lost it...I'm now playing Broadway vegetable songs.
But out here in "the sticks", one gets pretty surrounded with vegetables at this time of the year. At every turn, a farm market overwhelmed! A field overturned! And when you're on a bike, you don't just experience this for 4 seconds; nope, on 2 wheels it's more like 4 minutes or 40. Of pumpkins, cabbage, zucchini, peaches...the sights (the smells!), the damn-I-wish-I-knew-how-to-can emotions. (Not really. I like the idea of "canning", not the roll-your-sleeves-up-and-start-peeling reality!) So I guess it's rather "nature"-al for all that harvesting to eke into a playlist! (Don't worry, it's only 4 songs.)
We'll also have some "Vanilla Ice Cream" (She Loves Me), take a flight to "Never Never Land" (do I have to say...Peter Pan?), and let Tommy Tune "Seesaw" with us for 75 choruses of Cy Coleman. (BTW, ever notice how I never play Barnum? I will never play Barnum. It's Coleman at a circus, and he is off the rails. Sort of like Wild Cat, without Lucy, but still...)(And, no I don't like "Colors of My Life." Just go away.) Plus Bernadette x 3!
So join me, already. We'll pick a peck, or a bushel, of Broadway...and eeether or iiiither way, have some fun! :)
