" Funding Drive #1 & The Showtune-iest Showtunes Known To Man "


Thanks to the excellent support of listeners like YOU (yes, you, right there, in front of the computer), Over The Rainbow raised 200 smackeroonies for the CKDU Funding Drive! Woo-hoo! $200 in one hour equals... well... a lot of dollars per minute. And to stimulate you guys to this excellent display of Over the Rainbow solidarity and support, I played what I like to think of as...

The Showtune-iest Showtunes Known To Man

Namely:

" I met a girl " from Bells Are Ringing

" New York, New York " from On The Town

" I want to be happy (solo and company taps) " from No, No, Nanette

" Spring, spring, spring " from 7 Brides For 7 Brothers

" All I do is dream of you " from Singin' in the Rain

" There's no business like show business " from Annie Get Your Gun (the original Broadway cast recording)

" I got rhythm " performed by Ethel Merman

" Thurio's samba " from Two Gentlemen of Verona

" I enjoy being a girl " from Flower Drum Song

" Brotherhood of man " from How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying

" We're gonna be all right " from Do I Hear A Waltz?
