A friend and I are putting together a show with just the two of us with the theme being growing up and the things that happen and what you learn. we are doing duets and solos and i was wondering if anyone had any suggestions of songs which could be be used for this theme.
We are akready considering doing

In his eyes
letting go

People-- the song is not called "Loathing". It's called "What Is This Feeling?".
Why do so many people confuse the title? Never mind; I think I know why. It's just that incorrect titles are a big pet peeve of mine.
I apologize.

Posted: 2/18/05 at 3:30pmI tried to do the growing up thing, but after a while, I just started naming women's songs that I love. Bad me. I think I'll go make a diva mix tape now.

Posted: 2/18/05 at 4:06pmwhat about A QUIET THING from FLORA THE RED MENACE? i looove that song! it shows a sense of maturity and u could put it in a part where one of the characters dream comes true or somethin like that.

Posted: 2/18/05 at 8:34pmDef. For Good. My friend and I did that duet once and it's such a great song to sing together.
I wanted to get something that an "ex"-junkie like him would really appreciate and cherish....it's a brick of heroin shaped like a heart.

Posted: 2/19/05 at 11:28am"Everybody Says Don't" is done by a man, but I guess it could be done by a woman.

Posted: 2/19/05 at 11:40amCome to think, Maria Friedman did it on the Sondheim album. So, yes, I guess it could definitely be done. But in the show, it's sung by Hapgood.
