How Are Things In Glocca Morra- Finnian's Rainbow

iRebekah31 suggested I sing this today and I was like, "Hey! Sure! This HAS been my ring tone for the last three months!" Not a huge fan of the karaoke track but it was the only one I could find so it had to make due! Not sure of the context of the song (this was an impulsive recording, bad Irish accent, lyrics whoops and all) but I love Kate Baldwin singing it! PS all those eagerly awaiting the contest winner... ...will have to wait until late tonight. I know! I'm so mean, but I'm having trouble deciding!!! ALSO, I get a lot of questions about recording and my mic setup, so I'll be making a video about how I set up soon.

How Are Things in Glocca Morra - Myrna Rose "Soprano at the Piano"

American soprano Myrna Rose, a native of Athens, Georgia, took the United Kingdom by storm as a celebrity on BBC Television and Radio,singing solo performances with the BBC Orchestra for more than a decade in the British Isles, Near East, Middle East and Far East. She was a favorite of British audiences, as well as the armed forces she gracefully entertained in ALL STAR performances throughout the world. Affectionately referred to as; "Our OWN American Beauty Rose," MYRNA had her own show on BBC Radio called "SOUNDS NEW: MUSIC FROM OPERA TO ELLA," which showcased her mastery of the Broadway, operetta and opera genres to millions of weekly listeners. Her spectacular vocal command and versatility garnered the acclaim of the LONDON TIMES to say: "This glorious soprano voice is perhaps the best voice in the world today." Myrna's meteoric rise as a newcomer in the UK caught the ear of the great Welsh tenor and comedian, Sir Harry Secombe (OLIVER!). Miss Rose joined Sir Harry in contracts offered by the PHILLIPS record label. Be it Gershwin, Porter, Berlin, Lehar, or Herbert, this duo was untouchable in their affecting studio and solo recordings of the world's greatest melodies. A Royal Command Performance before the Queen of England and the Royal Family at the Prince of Wales Theater is a high point of the career Miss Rose continues today this side of the pond. This video is one of a series recorded at the WGTV public television studio at the University of Georgia, to be <b>...</b>

"Finian's Rainbow" medley: ... Glocca Morra? / Look To Rainbow - lyrics

HOW ARE THINGS IN GLOCCA MORRA? Music: Burton Lane; Lyrics: EY Harburg © ca. 1949 From the musical "Finian's Rainbow." I hear a bird, a Londonderry bird. It well may be he's bringing me a cheering word. I feel a breeze, a River Shannon breeze. It well may be it's followed me across the seas. Then tell me, please, How are things in Glocca Morra? Is that little brook still leaping there? Does it still run down to Donny Cove, Through Killybegs, Kilkerry and Kildare? How are things in Glocca Morra? Is that willow tree still weeping there? Does that laddie with the twinklin' eye Come smilin' by? And does he walk away Sad and dreamy there, not to see me there? So I ask each weepin' willow And each brook along the way And each lad that comes a'sighin' "Too-ra-lay," "How are things in Glocca Morra This fine day?" LOOK TO THE RAINBOW M: Burton Lane / L: EY Harburg © 1949 From "Finian's Rainbow" On the day I was born, said my father, said he. "I've an an elegant legacy waitin' for ye. 'Tis a rhyme for your lips and a song for your heart, To sing it whenever the world falls apart. Chorus: Look, look, look to the rainbow. Follow it over the hill and the stream. Look, look, look to the rainbow. Follow a fellow who follows a dream. Follow a fellow, follow a fellow, Follow a fellow who follows a dream. 'Twas a sumptuous gift to bequeath to a child. Oh, the lure of that song kept my feet runnin' wild, For you never grow old if you never stand still, With the whippoorwill's song just <b>...</b>

How Are Things in Glocca Morra?

*sorry about the shabby camera feed. I only had my cell phone to work with. This is a popular song about a fictional village in Ireland. The music was composed by Burton Lane and the lyrics written by EY Harburg. The song was published in 1946 and introduced in the 1947 musical Finian's Rainbow. There is no actual Glocca Morra in Ireland (though there is a Glockamara, pronounced the same way). In a television interview late in his life, Harburg revealed that the name "Glocca Morra" was made up by composer Lane, who had devised a dummy lyric beginning with the line "There's a glen in Glocca Morra". Harburg liked the name but insisted on changing the line to "How are things in Glocca Morra?," as this is more personal.

First attempt at playing with a broken left pinky. Broke it in my sleep. Go ahead and make fun of me. We won't be hearing from that finger for a couple of months at least. And right when I had finally gotten all of my recording stuff up and running. Some quick classical tests, as well as a live classical show at the Prism (theprism.org) in '03 for sale at evanmook.com, myspace.com/evanmook - all proceeds go to the Evan Mook uninsured left pinky foundation. And how about we musicians get insured?
stupid uninsured moron breaks freakin' finger in his sleep have you ever heard of anything so completely ridiculous?$!@#
