No. I mean in public. Singing for 40 people at Hammerstein's is in private. This person performed on a television show.

okay, if it's Streisand (or however the hell she spells her name), what song was it, and on what did she sing it?

Well I am assuming it was her tv special "My Name is Barbra" but she was on the Jack Parr show before that so I dont know. That is my guess

No. Actually, it was Julie Andrews, on the Gary Moore Show. She sang "Love I Hear", whilst 'Forum' was in rehearsals.

How could Forum be the first Sondheim song on TV? What about Gypsy and West Side Story?

You're all a bunch of threadjacking ho-bags.
Nothing precious, plain to see, don't make a fuss over me. Not loud, not soft, but somewhere inbetween. Say sorry, just let it be the word you mean.

Very true, Jerby. The first time, having only a passing familiarity with Madonna's music, I went because it was David's show. I have returned, and will go again, because it's a really entertaining show with terrific arrangements.

Oh, and it got jacked, because threads with Madonna as the subject, aren't very interesting, thus their vulnerability to jacking.

Just because her name is in the subject line doesn't mean that this thread is about her. It is about the talented Mr. Gurland and his fabulous show.
PEACE.

Hey! I like the I'M BREATHLESS album with the Sondheim songs.

Especially "He's A Man", though not written by Sondheim.


But that "I'm Going Bananas" and "Cry Baby" scare me!

VOGUE is a total outcast on that album. Shouldn't be on there.

o they really do THAT man's musicals in High Scholl?

Who would get them? Understand them? Who would be able to be impressed by his overuse of a diatonic scale simply because he can???

Right. This is a Sondheim free zone now. It's all about the Gurley Man and his fabulous show.

Some people have nothing better to do than jack a thread when it's about a subject they have nothing upon which to add. And so they do.

Having seen Neurotica, I'm emminently qualified to comment, especially as I'm no Madonna fan. I'm currently futzing with my schedule so that I can return to this show. It's absolutely fantastic. David's rendition of "Frozen" alone is worth any cover and drink minimum.

And let's not forget his take on Oh Father which brought tears to my eyes, it's so beautiful.
