SS Bernard Cohn is from On A Clear Day by Lerner and Lane.
If you're doing that song look at the rest of Daisy's songs from Clear Day. Listen/buy the cast recording. It isn't on the Barbra soundtrack and the show songs are better and better done. It is one of my top ten scores. The books sucks canal water, but the score shines.
Take it a step further. The songs listed were sung by Carol Channing, Barbara Harris, Chita Rivera and Gwen Verdon. Look at their whole catalog and then throw Elaine Stritch into the mix.
After all that, find 'The Gentleman is a Dope' by R+H and from Allegro. It is not done much these days and is a moderate tempo.
