Memories" |
|
The
Playlist

I
admit, my emotional state and my preoccupation with
camera-clicking at this show prevented me from taking
mental notes on the playlist as clearly as I have done
in concerts past. However, here is at least a
decently filled out list of what Wakin sang that night.

And
the Grand Prize Necklace Goes (Very Deservedly)
to...Snow White?
When the time came for Wakin to give away the grand
prize necklace, he called for volunteers to audition.
Of those who volunteered, Wakin selected a gal from the
very back of the room to come forward. In order to
win the necklace, she had to sing one of his songs.
When she started to sing "I'm Going to Marry You
Tomorrow", not only did she prove she knew the words,
but she also proved she could sing like an angel!
Wakin himself was totally blown away by her delicate
soprano voice as she sang the song effortlessly in a
much higher octave than he himself did! When she
came to to the end of the chorus, she lightly hit that
top high note without batting an eyelash, and brought
the house down in applause! Needless to say, she won the
necklace. As a testimony for how beautiful her
voice was, Wakin's face in these pictures says it all!
