"Fever" at Keyboard Karaoke

Here's an inspired performance of "Fever" (and an excerpt of "Don't Stop Believin'"), filmed by Torsten at Rubulad, back in December. Apologies to anyone who showed up at Rubulad this past Saturday, when the cops shut us down just as I was getting started.

Okay, Here's The New Song List

What's In the New Keyboard Karaoke Songbook?

Well, you'll just have to come down and find out, won't you...
There's a whole new book with over 200 songs, from the 50s to the 90s from classic rock faves to showtunes, from the sublime to the ridiculous.
It's mostly your requests.
Here's a few hints:

2 songs have "Midnight" in the title
2 songs have "Hello" in the title (and a third starts with the lyric "Hello")
2 songs start with the number "9"
Bette Davis is mentioned in 2 of the songs.
There's a song about Brooklyn, and a song about California.

Here's a short piece from BCAT about Keyboard Karaoke at the Lucky Cat:
