While reading on the J train last evening, I heard the deep baritone voice of a man singing “Easter Parade”.
“In your Easter bonnet, with all the frills upon it
You’ll be the grandest lady in the Easter parade”
I quickly scanned the commuters to identify the song artist. I spotted a man, side-stepping across the cars, older and taller and blinder Jamie Fox. His eyes were closed as he sang with passion. I thoroughly enjoyed his set list. [See Below]
1. Easter Parade
2. Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer
3. Take Me Out to the Ballgame
4. Zippity Doo Da
5. GreenSleeves
6. Saturday Night At the Movies
Those were literally the 6 songs I heard him sing. I thought the random, yet familiar selection was awesome.
These days, you can’t pay to see a concert with that kind of entertainment.
