I'll fax you back with a plan of attack to let the quality time begin. We got to take at least a day and night off. We've both been chewing more than we can bite off. But now I got to deal with this other call. And later, when we're alone - hang on there's my other phone - we'll have a ball. (Playing piano, singing) Come dine with me. (Playing piano, singing) We'll find some upscale friends to share some space with, a wealthy couple we can interface with, a smart attorney we can start a case with. We'll play it smart, of course, and let them beat us. Some influential sorts are bound to meet us. We'll hit the tennis courts in our Adidas. We'll do a workshop on the grieving process. We'll take a seminar on self-hypnosis so we can learn to stop and smell the roses. (Playing piano, singing) Quality time - a little frolic and frivolity time. I'll take a power lunch with Robert Vesco. We'll walk along the beach and dine al fresco. In the Bahamas, we can let our stress go. (Playing piano, singing) Quality time - we owe ourselves a little quality time. In case they want to sell, my firm could buy it. We'll find a small hotel, remote and quiet. Quality time - we both deserve a little quality time. So darling, let me bring you up to speed. We're not seeing enough of each other 'cause truth be told, we're up to our ears in our careers, and we're putting our hearts on hold. (Playing piano, singing) I'll be late getting home from the office, and so will you because we both got a million calls to return and a million things to do. GROSS: You've brought a brand-new song with you, and I'd love to hear it.įRISHBERG: OK. GROSS: Dave Frishberg, welcome to FRESH AIR.ĭAVE FRISHBERG: Thank you, Terry. Today we'll hear highlights of some of those FRESH AIR interviews and performances, starting with this 1991 FRESH AIR studio performance and interview. Those multiple appearances are a sign of just how much we enjoyed his music. I love hearing him interpret his own songs and feel so lucky that he was willing to perform on our show several times. Four of his own albums were nominated for Grammys. Some of the performers who recorded his songs are Rosemary Clooney, Mel Torme, Blossom Dearie, Al Jarreau, Jackie and Roy, Diane Krall (ph), Susannah McCorkle and Rebecca Kilgore.
#School rock im just a bill series
But the lyrics he wrote were about the anxieties of contemporary life, songs like "I'm Hip," "My Attorney Bernie" and "Quality Time." But he also wrote beautiful ballads like "Heart's Desire, "Sweet Kentucky Ham" and "You Are There." One of his most famous songs, "I'm Just A Bill," was written for the kids TV series "Schoolhouse Rock!" to explain how a bill becomes a law. Many of his songs have the wit that's associated with American popular song of the past. Today we pay tribute to Dave Frishberg, a songwriter, jazz pianist and singer. To stay true to the source cartoon, the red should be on top and the blue on bottom.This is FRESH AIR. Using black fabric paint, write "BILL" across the white section. Sew remainder closed with a needle and thread, and then sew the belt to the center back of the seal on the "male" velcro end. Turn right side out, and stuff the foam piece in. Sew this to the tri-color piece (right sides together) about 90% around the circumference to create a slipcover. Use the foam to trace another solid piece of scrap fabric. Sew those three together with the white in the middle, and trace around the foam piece to cut out a circle (as seen in photo). Using that as a guide, cut three pieces of red white and blue fabric to cover one side in equal thirds. Seal: Cut a large circle of foam out of your leftovers. Sew the "male" velcro on the other end on opposite side. Turn the hem under a half inch, and then sew on a block of "female" velcro. Cut two pieces about 6 inches wide, sew them together on three sides, right side together, and turn them inside out. have someone measure around under the armpits and then you know how long to make your ribbon/belt.

Ribbon: Try on your foam parchment piece and line up your face holes.
