Ethel Merman
There's no party that isn't complete with drunken friends singing their favorite songs in full-out Ethel Merman style.

What song would you like to hear sung in the style of Ethel Merman?

7. Ernest Borgnine
He used to do Ethel Merman. And I don't mean "impersonate," though he may well have done that, too.

8. great song by Archers of Loaf
I'm going to grow up to be just like Ethel Merman.
I'm already warbling, so I think I fit her pretty well.
Ethel was not Vegas.
Ethel's death has come too soon.
And I've got suspicious feelings now that Ethel's gone.

I'm going to grow up to be just like Johnny Franklin.
I'm already balding, so I think I fit him pretty well.
And it's not that I don't like people.
Surely you know that I like you.
It's just that I've got hateful feelings towards the Beatles' song.

17. really dahlink
you must be frequenting DQ parties (dreadful queen). Louie Quince gold leaf furnishings with red velvet drapes, Judy Garland collectibles, little yappy dogs with hair accessories. You really need new friends. Poor dear.
