My Funny Valentine

Rodgers and Hart wrote “My Funny Valentine” for their 1937 musical, “Babes In Arms” and over the years it has become a true classic. So many great versions of this song exist, but for the sake of sanity, I have chosen 4 to compete in this week’s Cat Fight. Please listen to all four in their entirety and then vote for the one you DIG THE MOST! Happy Valentine’s Day and enjoy Mardi Gras.

Mardi Gras In New Orleans

This week’s Friday Night Cat Fight takes us down to The Big Easy for a New Orleans themed Cat Fight Show. The battle royale this week is between two natives of New Orleans doing slightly different versions of the same song. We begin with “Jock-A-Mo” from Sugar Boy Crawford & His Cane Cutters from 1953. It’s up against The Dixie Cups classic top 20 hit from 1965, “Iko Iko”. Only you can decide who will take the Mardi Gras Friday Night Cat Fight. Grab a hurricane and dig, baby, dig. Where ya at?
