Michael Strahan - "That Oprah" by Swizz Beats
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIht7jsvTX4

He's been getting some press for dressing liek Oprah on his and Kelly's show: http://ftw.usatoday.com/2013/08/michael-strahan-oprah/

Demi Lovato - "Dobie Gillis theme"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsfFf8KFELo

Change "Dobie" to "Demi"
(yeah, I ran out of Demi songs. lol)

Strahan: The Gap Band - Outsanding (for the gap between his two front teeth)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rSLGFL3Xa30

Lovato: Katy Perry - Kissed a Girl (Demi will be playing Naya Rivera's girlfriend in Glee this season)

Michael Strahan
Pat Benatar's "Love Is A Battlefield"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjY_uSSncQw
REASON: He has a gap in his teeth, so it would be a reference to the whistle solo in the song (at 4:49 mark)


Demi Lovato
Faith Hill's "This Kiss"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dls_cBmUt7Q
REASON: For the shared kiss she had with Naya Rivera
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2406054/Demi-Lovato-lesbian-lover-Singer-blows-kisses-screen-girlfriend-Naya-Rivera-scenes-pic-Glee-set.html

ALTERNATE CHOICE:
The Residents' "Smelly Tongues"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0tOPf8gXWuQ
REASON: Same as above.

(musical guest Neko Case! The two songs she released already from her album are great tunes. Amazing stuff)

Michael Strahan:

"The Gap" - Thompson Twins
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0SEwy1as78E

(his front teeth-- chorus is at 01:10)

Demi Lovato:
"Girls Kiss GIrls" - Pittsburgh Slim
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0t63oWosHA0

(upcoming Glee role. chorus is at 0:25)

Michael Strahan
Giant Steps - John Coltrane
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30FTr6G53VU

Why? He's a former New York Giant player.

I tried to get this to work, maybe you could do an arrangement that includes "I should watch TV" and "Behold and love this giant" in a walk-on-able format?

I Should Watch TV - St.Vincent and David Byrne
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lBY39qMasAc#t=50s

Why? He's on TV and he's a former New York Giant player.

Since he was and still is NY Giant.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dSS_ty5o7x4

Change this lyric to
'Cause everyone's my friend in New York City
And everything looks beautiful when you're young and pretty
The streets are paved with diamonds and there's just so much to see
But the best thing about New York City is you and me

to You and Kelly

The Pipkins - Gimme Dat Ding
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEEy615Jzg4

Why? Running out of rhymes for Demi.

Cory Booker - "Hot In The City" by Billy Idol
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-6AH582yH6s

This might be too heady, but a slight mix of this was used as the theme song to the Richard Grieco 21 Jump Street spinoff, BOOKER. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tH4ySG-KLm8

Heidi Klum
Wings' "Hi, Hi, Hi"
REASON: Her name is Heidi.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LzNo8-3awcM


Mayor Cory Booker
The Staples Singers' "Why (Am I Treated So Bad)"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lA8tX0PNgss
REASON: Mayor Booker has been having some bad PR as of late, so I figured this might work for how he has been hassled in the media.

Heidi Klum:
"The Only Thing That Looks Good On Me Is You" - Bryan Adams
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onn8x-qDrtg

(chorus is at :37)

Mayor Cory Booker:
"Mr. Fix It" - Jeffree
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RoVk4Nvl4NA

(as a mayor, he's very hands on. A great song, a stepping classic, criminally slept on, possibly in part due to the fact that there isn't really a chorus to it. Something resemblng a chorus kicks in at 3:19, but the song is only 3:48 long!)

Paolo Nutini - New Shoes
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmbUNF1Q4R8

Why? She has a new line of shoes for New Balance. (How do I know this? I read the emails I get from New Balance - the only shoes wide enough for me and Phife.)

#2: Timex Social Club - Rumors
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DRte0S2a_dA


Love his quote on it: “...People who think I’m gay, some part of me thinks it’s wonderful. Because I want to challenge people on their homophobia. I love seeing on Twitter when someone says I’m gay, and I say, ‘So what does it matter if I am? So be it. I hope you are not voting for me because you are making the presumption that I’m straight.’ ”

From WEDDING SINGER.

"Margaritaville" by Jimmy Buffet
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUTf5qvS0Lo

She's made the "Skinnygirl Margarita" popular http://www.food.com/recipe/the-skinnygirl-margarita-bethenny-frankel-375019

Steve Buscemi
Earth, Wind & Fire's "Kalimba Story"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mju2xwDC3IY
REASON: He is doing the voice for a cartoon called KHUMBA, which is coming out in October but I figured it would be a chance to do this song anyway.


Bethenny Frankel
Styx's "Too Much Time On My Hands"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5XcKBmdfpWs
REASON: As you know, she just got divorced and told some journalists to not ask her "celebrity questions". She wants to move on and do a talk show, thus the use of the song is a way of saying "I don't want to talk about what you want, time is ticking away, I must keep on moving."

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKwRUiCNgWU - John Lee Hooker
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97ECZMvbLxg - George Thorogood

(due to prohibiton theme of Boardwalk Empire)

Bethenny Frankel:
'Skinny Legs And All" - Joe Tex
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y2Cfh8ThiFg

(okay, mmmmmmaybe this is ill advised but it just jumps out at me. Given that she first got know via her Skinny Girl cookbooks and margaritas and then add to that her high profile divorce:

"And don't you worry about a doggone thing at all
Because there's some man, somewhere
Who'll take you baby, skinny legs and all)

Jan Pehchan Ho - Mohammed Rafi

JoBoxers - Just Got Lucky

Why? Change it something liek "He plays Nucky" or some such.

She tweeted (thanks to a Gogole web search) : It is National Dog Day. I'd like to dedicate it to @cookiedabooboo & all of the other men, ahem, I mean dogs, out there.

I only wish that we could even entertain:

KMD - Hum Rush

Why? Just in case you can sneak some music in for a chef. (It was in my mind because of the "Cuter than Booker - a real good looker" line for Cory Booker.)

Why? There's a lot of Mexican's out today, lots of Mexican's in my way.
I like Tacos.

since KimK called her a "fake media friend" whatever that means.
this is the stance i think katie would take.

Katie Couric
The Tubes' "Prime Time"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tCp6Tc1Ph0w
REASON: She is a TV host, thus a song about being on TV, so the chorus would be cool.




Patton Oswalt
The Punk Group's "Big Ass Sandwiches"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iEfThXdHPz8
REASON: As you know, Oswalt is a foodie. When he is in Portland, the guys at the Big Ass Sandwiches food cart asked if he could show up when he landed. He did:
http://pdx.eater.com/archives/2011/02/04/patton-oswalt-see-tweetstrades-tix-at-big-ass-food-cart.php

Because of this, they made a sandwich in his honor, called the "Oz-Bie Space-Pat Waste-Walt":
http://pdx.eater.com/archives/2011/02/14/patton-oswalt-builds-his-own-big-ass-sandwich.php

While The Punk Group has since split up, it would be cool if the song was done. Plus, it would mention one of my favorite food carts in Portland, as Brian and Lisa are cool people. If you need to contact the guys of The Punk Group, here is/was their Facebook page. I could probably locate one of the guys more directly if need be:
https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Punk-Group/204829622615

But yes, I want to honor Oswalt with the "Big Ass Sandwiches" theme song.
