  • For my birthday, Jeremy told me he would sing a medley of any songs that I wanted, no questions asked. So, the night before my birthday, I wrote this little arrangement, and handed him the sheet music night-of and...ta-da! Here it is! Best gift ever! We had so much fun!
    This was performed as our encore at the Aventura Arts and Cultural Center on March 6th, 2019 in Aventura, Florida.
    In order, the songs presented are:
    "Part of Your World" (The Little Mermaid)
    "Over The Rainbow' (The Wizard of Oz)
    "Let It Go" (Frozen)
    "I'm Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman" (Britney Spears)
    "Wannabe" (Spice Girls)
    "It's All Coming Back To Me Now" (Celine Dion)
    "Memory" (Cats)

    Jeremy would make a great Captain Jack in Who's universe!! I just can't get enough of him! ...or a collaboration, with John Barrowman! Those two onstage would be heaven!
