And the author is so modest too! I can vouch for the description, Matt's book
is a well put together publication. The only "problem" is that it only deals 
with releases up to the end of 1990 (or so). Or is there by any chance a new 
edition? If so why not post details - a lot of people will be interested.

A large part of why many of the songs sound familiar is that Hollywood and
Madison Avenue have both recently discovered that Enya's music is great for
soundtracks.  No fewer than two feature films ("Sleepwalkers" and "Far &
Away") and two national ad campaigns (Crystal Light and one other that I
can't remember right at this moment) have used her music.  She's been
getting a lot of exposure, but not through the usualpublic musical channels
(i.e., radio).

Are you sure? I don't have the disc but the UK listings only show it as
having the first two tracks with the 12" vinyl version having all three. 
If you can confirm your information I'll update my discography (new issue
early next week) accordingly.

I have received a surprising number of requests for the following material,
so I'm splurging the bandwidth (for which _I_ don't pay directly ;^) to post.

Notice:  The PeeCee character set supports umlauted a, o and u, but standard
ASCII doesn't.  Hence, the umlauted letters are represented by the letter
followed by a colon.  Also, that German letter whose name I never can remember
which looks like a first cousin to the Greek beta (a stressed `s' in German)
here is represented by a `_B'.  (I use the PC's beta, normally.)

Where it was SUNG by a lot of Nazis (Hitler Youth, if I recall correctly). 
I'd say it still counts as a Nazi song even if the Nazis didn't write it
themselves.  It was used to lend an ominous tone to the story, as if it really 
needed another one!  (Just out of curiosity, do you know who actually wrote
it, and when?)

          OK, I've been to the library and done a little research.
          The printed score to "Cabaret" lists all music as being by
          John Kander, and all lyrics as being by Fred Ebb.
          *Nowhere*, certainly not on the sheet music for the song
          itself, is there any indication that "Tomorrow Belongs To
          Me" is any sort of exception to that.  Having looked at the
          music, I find enough variation in the melody line between
          verses, and enough difficult notes, especially in the solo
          tenor's opening verse, that I just don't believe this
          started as a German popular tune, as opposed to something
          written specifically for the stage.

          As to the show itself, "Cabaret" opened on Broadway, as a
          musical, in 1966.  The movie version was released in 1972 or
          1973.  Neither Liza Minelli nor Michael York was in the
          original Broadway production, although Bob Fosse directed
          both the stage and film versions.  There *was* a play that
          musical was based on, but it wasn't called "Cabaret".  The
          title of the play was "I Am A Camera".

          Hope this helps.

        Sorry, Joe, but you are 100% wrong.  It is a Hitler Youth marching
song.  My mother was there and told me about it. Its use in 'Cabaret' was to
establish versimilitude as to the time and place.

Don't have that, but here are *two* filks of the "Emperor's Hymn" aka

Soon as he came on the scene.
Mecham wanted a cool customer

Heuisler's temper and his brawling
left e'en the Arizona Republic awed.

   We need living space, bigger taxing base,
   Achieving Scottsdale's destiny:

Not in a thousand, thousand years.
 
Scottsdale, Scottsdale, over Phoenix,
