This coming from the man who makes us pick between all sorts of greats on the off-topic board.

Posted: 9/12/04 at 4:20pmI like 'em both... but I like Irving Berlin's music just a little bit more...

Posted: 9/12/04 at 4:39pmi lean slightly to the Cole Porter side, but only because the sole of one of my shoes is a lttle more worn than the other...

But surely the reason it's worn is because you're leaning towards the Cole Porter side?

Posted: 9/12/04 at 5:47pmquite possibly! i think Cole Porter is wittier, while Irving Berlin feels a bit more home-spun, "american" sensibility...

Posted: 9/12/04 at 6:50pmI must say that it is a tough decision. Both have contributed a great deal to the music/theatre scene. While I like Berlin a great deal, I lean to the Cole Porter side slightly. Kiss Me, Kate is probably the one show that puts Porter up. It is a great show and one of my all time favorites.
