At her 90th birthday party, Aunt Gladys takes to the microphone and sings "Making Whoopee."

She also sang "Hello, Young Lovers" and "Some Enchated Evening," but I didn't post those videos because she couldn't remember a lot of the words.
Then they played "Tonight" for her to sing along to, but she didn't like the bossa nova beat they put to it. She kept tolling her eyes and shaking her head.

No--I'm the cameraman. My sister and bother-in-law is in the video briefly at the end. Aunt Gladys's son is the one holding the microphone.
Norn--you should have seen the timing of the look she gave the band when they told her they would play "Tonight" from West Side Story and then started to play a bossa nova. It was withering.
