- When I Lost You Parody
Heroes Superman, Batman, Spider Man and Mighty Mouse bemoan the effects of aging on their waning superpowers. Time to dress up! The songs:
Whether you are a Tiger or a hacker, or even a couch potato, these two songs could be big fun for you and your audiences:
Ah, young love:
Is your group ready to slay dragons, rescue fair maidens and generally carry on in fun fashion? If so, choose two of these three pieces for your next contest:
This package would fit a chorus with a female director especially well. Every performance will be a jolly ‘oliday with these two pieces:
Everyone’s favorite urchin is the theme of this package. Choose one of the first two pieces to sing with the touching, lovely ballad:
Now, this is not really a dress-up package, but the two songs sure do go well together:
Five well-known barbershop songs are given new lyrics, and new life, in this fun romp. Wonder what could be paired with it in a high-concept contest set. “I Don’t Have a Wooden Heart,” “I’m Your Puppet,” “I’ve Got No Strings”—we could think of something!
Time to swash, buckle, pillage, plunder and so on—not to mention dressing up in highly fun fashion:
[I can steer you toward some other folks’ arrangements for song two.]
Better suited to a chorus than a quartet, this saga explores the spinach-eating Sailor Man and his gang:
[Hmm. . . . Perhaps you could sing a love song to Olive Oyl.]
Break out your zoot suits or Roaring ’20s grubbies and get ready to explore the mysteries of, and creative solutions for, that dreadful time known as Prohibition:
and maybe even the gangster song We’re Number One
Ah, the flower of love! Here you have an uptune medley and a choice of two ballads:
More for a chorus than a quartet, this medley deals with sailors who have had their shore leave canceled. It is pretty funny and clever if I do say so myself:
[Lots of songs would work; for example, A Son of the Sea or How Deep Is the Ocean.]
Who among us isn’t older than he or she used to be? But, hey, let’s have some fun with the passage of time:
for shows try Senior Moments [You can’t sing “brain farts” in contest.]
Things go haywire at puberty and don’t seem to settle down for another, oh, it seems like 40 or 50 years:
a little cheerier would be Calendar Girl
This one is pretty flexible, of course, for so many of our barbershop claassics were written in this roaring decade. So you could either sing these two uptunes or pick one of them and just add a ballad:
As sung by SAI’s San Diego Chorus, this a real production number. Songs included are “Pack Up Your Troubles in Your Old Kit Bag,” “When Irish Eyes Are Smiling,” “Till We Meet Again” and “When You’re Smiling.” They also serve who sit and smile. . . .
