Re: your possible gender-switch show, let me recommend Frank Gallop singing “The Man I Love.” Dr. Demento fans remember Frank as the deep-voiced singer of “The Ballad of Irving.” Here’s the link: http://www.musicstack.com/my/index.cgi?seller=1805&find=musicor&search_type=label
Scroll down to “Would You Believe.. Frank Gallop Sings?”
I think that was the first time I actually understood all the words to The End of the World (As We Know It)
I also loved Julie’s cover of “It’s the End of the World…” I just might be voting for that 10+ months from now in the 2007 Coverville Countdown!
And also, Happy Birthday Tina!! Brian never said what the actual day was, but mine is actually on the 7th!
