This has nothing to do with your entry, but it is germane to your interests: Last night I played "Who Warbled Better?" on my late-night college radio show, putting Nina Simone's live 1964 version of "Pirate Jenny" up against Lotte Lenya's original Threepenny Opera recording of "Seeäuberung Jenny", and based on the popular vote, it was Lenya by a landslide.

I did not know of Lotte Lenya until you mentioned her on your journal and linked to the amazing Threepenny Opera recording. I just wanted to say thank you.
