For tickets and more info, visit ourconcerts.live/pinkmartini This is a snippet from our upcoming virtual show, premiering May 7th! The ENTIRE 3-hour Edgefield performance will be streaming as a virtual concert May 7-9. You don’t want to miss this concert, it is a special treat JAM-PACKED with so many charming moments, new gems like “Let’s Be Friends” and old fan favorites, featuring both China Forbes and Storm Large and a cast of our regular guest singers that can’t be with us on every tour. The live virtual event airs on May 7th and the concert is available to stream through May 9th. Excerpted from Pink Martini's live concert at Edgefield in Portland, "Let's Be Friends" is the first of two new original songs that were released as digital singles in 2020, while the band was on hiatus during the pandemic. An ode to the joy of platonic friendship, the song was written by Pink Martini bandleader Thomas M. Lauderdale, lead vocalist China Forbes, and producer Jim Bianco. Filmed on a rainy day in September 2021, soon after the band started touring again after a long hiatus during quarantine, this video is excerpted from an epic 3-hour concert that will be broadcast starting May 7, for Mother's Day weekend, on ourconcerts.live. LYRICS Scientists will tell you That it’s a simple fact It’s better to be opposites In order to attract So easy to believe Still I disagree Because they don’t know you And they don’t know me I’m a song You’re the dance I’m the fancy You’re the pants The Paris in my France Let’s be friends You’re the glitz I’m the glam You’re green eggs And I’m a ham Happy as a clam Let’s be friends Why hold your horses? Let’s join forces! Racing in a surrey down the avenue You’ll never need another When you got each other As natural as the sky is blue You’re the beans I’m the rice I’m the sugar You’re the spice We’re twice as nice Let’s be friends Why hold our horses? Let’s join forces! Racing in a surrey down the avenue You’ll never need another When you got each other As natural as the sky is blue Boo – boo – pee – doo You’re a pea Just like me In a pod so happily It’s our destiny Let’s be friends I’m the chit You’re the chat You’re the rabbit In my hat It’s so magical It’s so mystical Irresistible Let’s be friends I’m the dreamer You’re the dream We should be on the cover of a magazine Where’s our limousine? Let’s go make a scene You know what I mean Let’s be friends LINEUP: Thomas M.
