My going away concert (goes to eleven...):
"Nyne otpushchayeshi (Lord, Now Lettest Thou Thy servant depart )" Rachmaninov (Vespers)
"Old Man River" Kern/Hammerstein
New things come, and old things go
But all things look the same to Joe.
Wars go on and some folks die,
De rest forget
De reason why.
"Walk This Way" Tyler/Perry
"Walk the Line" Cash (only this time, I actually get all the key changes right unlike whenever I try it on Karaoke night.)
"Largo al Factotum" Rossini
"Up and Down" Raposo
"I'm an Asshole" Dennis Leary
I'm just a regular joe
With a regular job
I'm your average white
Suburbanite slob
"I Believe I'll Dust My Broom (I Believe my Time ain't Long)" Johnson
"Morning Dew" Hunter/Garcia --just like the Europe '72 version, please.
any gospel song as recorded by Sam Cooke
and for my encore:
"Cold Sweat Parts 1 and 2" James Brown
