This is about the pictures scattered in the internet showing a dead merman allegedly found in cebu...is this true or a hoax?

Ethel Merman performs a medley of three songs (Girl Crazy's "I Got Rhythm," Call Me Madam's "You're Just in Love," and Gypsy's "Everything's Coming Up Roses"), performed on the occasion of the star being given a special Tony, her second and last, on the 1972 show. thanks to jackstiger, I corrected the date (I had it as 1978) She is performing here almost four decades after her stage debut. In the bit from "Call Me Madam," Larry Blyden assists. According to Ken Mandelbaum, three songs were removed from this medley as presented on the DVD. "I Got Rhythm" by George and Ira Gershwin "You're Just in Love" - by Irving Berlin "Everything's Coming Up Roses" - Music : Jule Styne - Lyrics: Stephen Sondheim

Here is a beautiful song by legendary singer and actress Ethel Merman. Ethel Merman (born Ethel Agnes Zimmermann, 1908 -- 1984) was a American actress of stage and film musicals, well known for her powerful voice, often hailed by critics as "The Grande Dame of the Broadway stage". Merman was known for her powerful, belting mezzo-soprano voice, precise enunciation, and pitch. Because stage singers performed without microphones when she began singing professionally, she had great advantages in show business, despite the fact that she never received any singing lessons. Merman began singing while working as a secretary for the B-K Booster (automobile) Vacuum Brake Company in Queens. She eventually became a full time vaudeville performer and played the pinnacle of vaudeville, the Palace Theatre in New York City. She had already been engaged for "Girl Crazy", a musical with songs by George and Ira Gershwin, which also starred a very young Ginger Rogers (19 years old) in 1930. Although third billed, her rendition of "I Got Rhythm" in the show was popular, and by the late 1930's, she had become the first lady of the Broadway musical stage. Many consider her the leading Broadway musical performer of the Twentieth century, with her signature song being "There's No Business Like Show Business" (from "Annie Get Your Gun"). Merman starred in five Cole Porter musicals, among them "Anything Goes" in 1934, where she introduced "I Get a Kick Out of You", "Blow Gabriel Blow", and the title song. Her next musical with Porter was "Red, Hot and Blue", in which she co-starred with Bob Hope and Jimmy Durante and introduced "It's Delovely" and "Down in the Depths (on the 90th floor)". In 1939's "DuBarry Was a Lady", Porter provided Merman with a "can you top this" duet with Bert Lahr, "Friendship". Like "You're the Top" in "Anything Goes", this kind of duet became one of her signatures. Porter's lyrics also helped showcase her comic talents in duets in "Panama Hattie" ("Let's Be Buddies", "I've Still Got My Health"), and "Something for the Boys" ("By the Mississinewah", "Hey Good Lookin'"). Merman won the 1951 Tony Award for Best Actress for her performance as Sally Adams in "Call Me Madam". Perhaps Merman's most revered performance was in "Gypsy" as Gypsy Rose Lee's mother Rose. Merman introduced "Everything's Coming Up Roses" and "Some People" and ended the show with the wrenching "Rose's Turn". Critics and audiences saw her creation of Madame Rose as the performance of her career. Merman lost the Tony Award to Mary Martin, who was playing Maria in "The Sound of Music". "How can you buck a nun?" mused Merman. The competitiveness notwithstanding, Merman and Martin were friends off stage and starred in a legendary musical special on television. Merman retired from Broadway in 1970, when she appeared as the last Dolly Levi in "Hello, Dolly!", a show initially written for her. No longer willing to "take the veil", as she described being in a Broadway role, Merman preferred to act in television specials and movies. In 1979, she recorded The Ethel Merman Disco Album, with many of her signature show-stoppers set to a disco beat. Ethel Merman put in everything she made generosity and an infectious good humour. Enjoy her great voice and unique style!

I was bored and made this video yesterday and today from old cartoons. Song is "Merman" by Max Tundra (Ben Jacobs) on the album 'Mastered by Guy at the Exchange'. Thanks for watching!

I've listened to the other divas on YouTube singing "Rose's Turn," from "Gypsy." I keep hearing about Ethel Merman's original Broadway Version, but couldn't find it on YouTube so I'm posting the audio. (I've created a repeating video montage of some of Merman's photos, for visual interest). How do you think she compares to the divas that followed her? : Angela Lansbury, Rosalind Russell, Bette Midler, Tyne Daly, Patti Lupone, Liza Minelli, Bernadette Peters,Betty Buckley, etc? Who gives your favorite vocal delivery? Who's acting of the song moves you the most? Enjoy! PS: I'm just discovering Merman, so any favorite books on her you'd like to recommend, let me know, thanks.

In the early 1950s, Ethel Merman began singing a special arrangement of a dozen or so of the classic showtunes she introduced on Broadway. Roger Edens provided the "Lady with a Song" introductory verse. This 1960 performance is updated to include "Small World" from Merman's current show, "Gypsy." For technical reasons, Merman was required to lip-synch the medley for TV instead of singing live. However, this ten-minute traversal of "Ethel's Greatest Hits" does offer a sense of the performer's legendary onstage electricity.

My info says Jimi Hendrix 1968 Hotel room New York comment if you know anything Jimi Hendrix Jedi Knight ! lyrics Jimi Hendrix Hurrah, I awake from yesterday Alive, but the war is here to stay So my love, Catherina and me, decide to take our last walk through the noise to the sea Not to die but to reborn, away from lands so battered and torn Forever, forever Oh say, can you see it's really such a mess Every inch of Earth is a fighting nest Giant pencil and lipstick tube shaped things, Continue to rain and cause screaming pain And the arctic stains from silver blue to bloody red as our feet find the sand, and the sea is straight ahead, straight up ahead Well it's too bad that our friends, can't be with us today Well it's too bad The machine, that we built, would never save us', that's what they say (That's why they ain't coming with us today) And they also said it's impossible for a man to live and breathe under water, forever, was their main complaint And they also threw this in my face, they said: Anyway, you know good and well it would be beyond the will of God, and the grace of the King (grace of the King) (Yeah, yeah) So my darling and I make love in the sand, to salute the last moment ever on dry land Our machine, it has done its work, played its part well Without a scratch on our bodies and we bid it farewell Starfish and giant foams greet us with a smile Before our heads go under we take a last look at the killing noise Of the out of style, the out of style, out of style(oooh)...
