Lounge Singers

Singing "diamonds are a girl's best friend" at the top of my lungs on 94 westbound, I realized that two of my favorite movies (and CDs) feature lounge singers (technically 3 do, but I don't consider Annie Hall a professional musician)... not only that, but I like these movies because they're about lounge singers.

So where do you get to know them? Why do I only see them in movies? Is it true that if you look around a room and don't see any lounge singers than you are probably the lounge singer? Do any of you have BBQs and invite your lounge singers friends? Someone must because everyone love burgers.

Judging by the links you have on this blog (particularly to your past posts), I doubt anyone you know also knows lounge singers.

But I hear Rosanne's been in some nice movies....
