00:00She's a legend of the Australian music industry, not to mention my absolute, without question,
00:04favourite.
00:05And I'm really thrilled to welcome her to Midday this year.
00:07She's accompanied by her musical director, Michael Bartolome, and the Jeff Harvey Band.
00:13She performs is That Jazz from a brand new album, the album called The Singer, and I'm
00:18talking about the one, the only, Kerry Fidel.
00:31It sounds like there's a werewolf living in your throat
00:36And a little brown bag of something in your coat
00:40And you want to sing along but the melody's absurd
00:46Did you forget the words?
00:50Is that jazz?
00:55Is that jazz?
01:00Is that jazz?
01:09Well you can turn up on time but the notes aren't on the beat
01:15There's a little cellar door down a lane way off the street
01:19He smokes four packs a day but his saxophone smokes five
01:25It's only curiosity keeping him alive
01:29Is that jazz?
01:33Is that jazz?
01:43Is that jazz?
01:48Sleeping in chairs, living in beds
01:53I use a needle playing Billy in the heads
01:58Round and round the mulberry bush trying to find a park
02:03You hear more black note on the piano at the door
02:29Sleeping in chairs, living in beds
02:35I use a needle playing Billy in the heads
02:40Round and round the mulberry bush trying to find a park
02:46You hear more black notes on the piano at the door
02:53You hear more black notes on the piano at the door
03:07Sun goes down and it's time to get up
03:12Measure some more pleasure into a coffee cup
03:16People breathe in but they forget to breathe out
03:21Or a duke or a doctor in the house
03:24Is that jazz?
03:28Is that jazz?
03:34What is the word?
03:37I said the word is the word
03:47Is that jazz?
03:51Ooh
03:57Is that jazz?
04:01Yes, it is
04:07Yes, it is
