Production Note
It has come to my attention that past acts have crashed browsers. Please 1) include the song title and artist in your text, and 2) paste the URL as part of your last line (not a new line). The latter will provide a link, thus not embed the actual video … but I don’t mind unembedding, so apologies are not necessary.
PS: I have schedule Act 11 for next week, but the conclusion will be in January.
Announcement
Ladies and gentlemen, two legends collaborate to kickoff Act 10. A grand AFA welcome to Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald with Summertime.

I was prepared, Frank. Here’s a classic from Mel Brooks, “Springtime for Hitler” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHmYIo7bcUw

OK, Frank, this was a tough one and I was ready, except I was watching and grooving with Eric Clapton’s “Crossroads” DVD with friends when time was called. So, since Lame beat me to “Springtime with Hitler” here is my current choice, “Wintertime” by the Steve Miller Band http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6A6opUgoEc

I actually had one for this, but I cannot for the life of me find the dang video. It is Summertime by Bette Midler from one of her early concerts. That isn’t the entire name of the song, unfortunately I don’t have a good connection in the hotel.

One from a classic musical is an excellent choice. I found a version from the film, thus substituted it.

I was on the fence between Ella Fitzgerald’s “Summertime” and Flight of the Conchords’ “Business Time”. Since the former is something everyone has heard of, I went with the latter. Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqZcYPEszN8

Twixt,
Another reason not to use Summertime was that I used it opening the act. The producer nixed your other entry because “business time” is not a compound word …. and the AFA official dictionary didn’t acknowledge “businesstime” as legit … so … with you waiting for a move to the UK, thought this one by from across the pond would be appropriate … it’s George Harrison with I’d Have You Anytime.

Actually, that is a tough one because “In the Good Old Summertime” is different from “In the Good Old Summer Time” … I didn’t know this but the song is that latter 😦 … but the producer decided to take it easy on you.

I was going to suggest Paul Young’s “Everytime You Go Away,” but thought the producer of this production might question “everytime” since it’s not currently considered a compound word (but popular usage may change that). Good to know it is acceptable. 🙂

You are wise to be cautious of the producer, but I imagine “everytime” would be accepted … although some tried to use Summer Time thinking it was Summertime … but that was an oddity.
