For normal occasions, I do a pretty good Janis Joplin's "O Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes-Benz?". Around Christmas, I do a very good "Barking Dogs Jingle Bells". Seriously, I am very good at that one. One develops these talents when one has a young son who finds most amusing those things that irritate his mom.

There are so many, but Brad Paisley's "I'm Gonna Miss Her," is in easy vocal range and always good for a few chuckles...

John Denver - Rocky Mountain High (reminds me of my childhood)

B-52's - Love Shack (if I have a duet partner)

Your post and the word fortissimo reminds me of the correct pronunciation of the word 'forte', which is 'fort', not 'fortay', when describing a strength.

'Forte' (fort) is a French word meaning strength or strong trait or ability.
'Forte' (fortay) is an Italian word meaning loud (see fortissimo and fair's meaning).

Unfortunately, the term became extremely popular about twenty years ago. Virtually no one gets it right, not even KIA, unless they're identifying their Forte ( Fortay) model as a loud vehicle.

I battle with people all the time over the pronunciation of Forte.

Good job
