  • We have to thank Shaiman for convincing The Divine Miss M of recording Wind Beneath My Wings, which she didn't want to record.

  • Does anyone know where I can get sheet music to this song???

  • "Just my left beast the size of Lanie Kazan." lmao

  • Ha ha ha, WONDERFULL!!!!!!!

    He is GOOD.

  • Genius.

  • When he sings, he sounds like Tom Lehrer. Maybe he's an influence on his writing. Well, it sounds like it is, because they sound so similar in their writing style.

  • PS: In the version Bette sang to Johnny, the lyrics included "The camera's gonna add a TON to my CAN, how did I get as fat as I am?!"

  • I remember seeing Bette (aka: Miss Mildew)sing that song to Johnny Carson on the Tonight Show. She began the number seated in her guest chair, next to Johnny--then gradually crept up onto his desk, undulating and even jetting her boobs in his face. After the lyric "God knows I got the gaaaass" Bette went "Ptttthhhtttt" with her tongue. It was hilarious! Marc was on piano, of course :-) What a great burlesque style song.
