Namibian schoolkids singing Madonna's "Like a Prayer."
I love the accompanying text:
"I used to teach religion in rural Namibia. The plan was to create my own religion and use it to indoctrinate my students, the other teacher would do the same with her class, and our summative assessment would be a holy war on the school soccer pitch. I taught them Madonna instead."

Irwin, artist Arnie Roth was just here to drop off some art for a book I'm designing (yes another one)--he personally knew Jim Flora, Steinweiss, and knows very well the music of Raymond Scott--I mentioned Raymond Scott to him in regard to explaining who you are, not knowing it is the centenary b.d.! Serendipity! He was delighted with the 2 Flora books and that a 3rd is on the way.

You know, I think Rick Rondone performed in the 'Miss Kitty's Saloon' show at Six Flags in St. Louis last summer. Or at least it was a convincing simulation.

No way, gumby. Clay Pigeon played a more stripped down version of this song. I think it was on his A to Z show in Dec. 2006. It was really great.

It just goes to show you how when something becomes a cultural icon, it transcends the needs for traditional instrumentation.

A friend of mine in Los Angeles was recording with an engineer who worked with Karen. They bonded over his memories of Karen. He loved her. She would come to work with a big bag of knitting and just keep a low profile until she was "released". He told my friend that Karen was such a natural that each time she opened her mouth the same quality sound would come through.
In a parallel universe, Karen left L.A. and lived.
