“Send Me to The ‘Lectric Chair”
if it’s true that Laurie is covering so many famous tunes sung by legendary women (‘bout time somebody gives them due credit!!!)…well, that would make me just so proud as heck. i’d bless his soul, if i didn’t already bless it so many times before.

“Orange Colored Sky” - Natalie Cole
Jazz performers always sound like they’re performing the song for the first time managing to keep it fresh and new. This song still sounds like it was written yesterday, even though it decades old.
“Take my heart, but please don’t break it.”
One of my favorite albums!! I love “L-O-V-E” and “Too Young”. Those are my two favorites.
(1981)
Natalie Cole sings, “Tell Me Lies” from, “Cat’s Don’t Dance”. I love the animation and the small details of Hollywood.

Dream Lover- Bobby DarinGosh I FORGOT HE DID THIS SONG
its one of my all time favs its just so CUTE
We’ll meet beyond the shore
we’ll kiss just as before
Happy we’ll be beyond the sea
and never again I’ll go sailing
Laura Nyro sings, “Save the Country” live at the Kraft Music Hall.
Fun Fact: This song wasn’t a hit and failed the Billboard chart, until the Detriot riots started happening and the radio stations would play this constantly.
