Music While You Eat (4/16/08)
As promised, here are the songs you requested in the post below for you to enjoy while you eat your dinner. I stopped after 10, with a few tweaks: as mentioned in the video, I couldn't find Tori Amos's "Hungarian Wedding Song" so sorry Jill! And I didn't know Paul Anka's version of "Eye of the Tiger" so I just went with the original, April. My Liberace flourishes on your song, Mary, are pretty pathetic. And hard as I tried, w, I just couldn't play "Baby Got Back" on the piano--it doesn't have a melody! As for the shmaltzy finale, my dad is obsessed with me and the song "Food Glorious Food." He thinks it should be my cell phone ring....
I Take Requests
Did you know that I used to play the piano at a restaurant in Boca Raton? Yes, at the Boca Raton Hotel, I'd sit in the middle of their lunch buffet at a baby grand and crank out light musack while people nibbled on shrimp salad and white asparagus. To prove that I've still got my chops, I'm taking requests. In the comments below request a song (just one song!) and I'll do my best to honor the first 10. Then you can bring your plate to the computer and eat while I entertain you in a corresponding video.... If you like, this can be a weekly ritual. Music while you eat! Which other food blogger offers THAT?...
