[Krysia Szurek Subject: Which song would you vote for to open the show? Just curious what do you think of it? Which song would you find the best for show opening? I think I would go for "It's that girl again" or "If not now than when". I am also wondering which, if any (but I hope so), of the old songs they will include in concert. I may be very interesting to hear new acoustic arrangements of the old songs. BTW, thinking of Basia as the one who intorduced me to Brasilian samba/ bossanova rhythms, I really would love to hear her version of "Fly me to the moon" or "Agua de beber" (so far I can't find on YouTube any better version than the one performed by Jobim).

Ooh, I like it. I'd have to say If not now then when, though maybe they can do some dramatic entrance with the opening few bars of the title track, then sing it all later. I've heard people do that before. But I think a big splash like INNTW is best to open a show!

I vote for "If Not Now Then When" to open. I'd also like to hear an acoustic version of Time & Tide. I have heard it in my head. Just Basia and a guitar.

I still think Cruising for Bruising is the perfect opener for a concert. As for a covers project by Basia, I have always thought that would be a great idea, especially since B & D aren't too prolific in songwriting. What I always hoped to see was a duet between Basia and Astrid Gilberto - maybe even on "Astrid".

According to my wife, who is Filipino, Basia had better plan on doing mostly her '80s songs for her Philipine engagement. Personally, I would like Promises for the opener, and An Olive Tree to close. - -Brian* - --- On Sat, 8/22/09, Krysia Szurek wrote: From: Krysia Szurek Subject: Which song would you vote for to open the show?

I really find this whole thing about Basia and the Philippines interesting. Last tour, I met a bunch of Filipino fans after the LA show and they were like "Basia has to come play in the Philippines, SHE IS HUGE THERE! I had no idea but I was really impressed to hear that. They also told Danny and Basia this. But is it that T&T was huge there?
