Opening Medley - Our Hit Parade March 2010 Edition
Here is the opening medley of the March 2010 edition of Our Hit Parade. I was watching those terrifyingly bad videos Whoopie Goldberg made for Poise Pads. It is was if she was just put in a costume and told to improv. Not her forte, really. I also thought it would be funny to begin with a very serious Leonard Cohen song. Nothing like the mixture of Leonard Cohen with Neal Medlyn in a fire costume consisting of a homemade flame hat and a gold lame unitard to start an evening off right!

Telephone Hour - Telephone
So this was the opening number of the February edition of Our Hit Parade at Joe's Pub. I don't know how this idea came to me. All I know is I wish we had a huge budget so we could have had the original Bye Bye Birdie set with Bridget, Neal and me on different levels and talking on real old-fashioned telephones. I have dreams my friends. In the end we had to settle for two cellphones and some imagination. It was a good opening to a pretty fantastic show. I will be posting the other videos as a countdown to our next show on March 24th. I will be announcing some special guests also! and they are special!

Amber Martin - Consider Me Gone - Our Hit Parade
This was the number one country song of the month at last month's edition of Our Hit Parade. Amber Martin, with PJ Deboy on guitar, who you might recognize for his work in Shortbus, killed it...Reba McIntyre just keeps putting out hit and hit and hit. She really is multi-talented. Broadway, television and now a number one country hit. again....
I really kinda love this song and I love Amber and Paul's rendition.

Hard - Bridget Everett - Our Hit Parade
I haven't really warmed to Rihanna's album. Everything just seems like the energy has been sucked out of it. Tempos are a tad slower than the songs seem to want to be. But this cover of Hard made me like this song. It happens so often that covers allow me to see in a song something I missed whilst listening to the original version. Add in a couple of kids and Bridget Everett and you have a potent mix.
When we came up with the idea for Our Hit Parade the recession had just hit and we thought back to the depression when productions would have six or seven shows a day. We, of course, are at the ready to produce under that rubric at any time! But in the meantime, it warms my heart that so many young teen and preteen singers have graced the stage of Our Hit Parade. Now all we need is a live horse or two and Ziegfield Follies here we come!!!
