Frank Loesser wrote many popular tunes, but it’s tough to beat the ear-worm capabilities of this swingin’ classic — ‘On A Slow Boat To China’. Bette Midler teamed up with friend and long-time collaborator Barry Manilow to give this one the Vaudvilian treatment for her 2003 album ‘Bette Midler Sings The Rosemary Clooney Songbook’. Their witty shtick makes this tune — perfect to be performed as a Duet or equally strong as a solo feature.
