I don't know if anyone else has seen this, but I thought this was a very interesting clip. I wonder what the context for this was?

Is that from the Disco Evita album?

Definitely not from the Festival album. Wonder what show this was - love seeing Elaine Paige!

Here is my favorite version on that song:

Hermione Gingold is brilliant here. I suppose it would be easy to sort of laugh at this, but it's rewarding to take the time to appreciate how unique and perfect it is.

Made even more perfect by the fact that she's singing it to Merv Griffin, who is 28 years her junior and a homosexual. It's quite delicious really.

Whoever came up with that song for Hermione got a raise! Makes me want to hear Stritch tackle it.
