Tiffany and I went to see Ingrid Michaelson last night, courtesy of my cousin Christopher who is touring with her and her band. That’s as good a reason as any for this Random Ten to be about artists and bands whose names start with the letter I:
1. Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll – Ian Dury & The Blockheads
2. Vehicle – Ides Of March
3. Let It Go – Idina Menzel
4. A Fool In Love – Ike & Tina Turner
5. Closer To Fine – Indigo Girls
6. Sweet Georgia Brown – Illinois Jacquet
7. The Way I Am – Ingrid Michaelson
8. Devil Inside – INXS
9. Fame – Irene Cara
10. Buns O’ Plenty – Isaac Hayes
I have two young daughters, so OF COURSE I have “Let It Go”. We have the Demi Lovato version of it, too, but her name doesn’t start with I. I had more of these than I expected, so maybe I’ll make a series out of this. I did a series of lists based on the starting letter of song titles, so why not artists? You’ll know next week if I decided it was worth the time. In the meantime, go see Ingrid Michaelson, who is both a fine musician and a fellow Staten Islander.
