    Nellie McKay: If I Ever Had A Dream

    Songwriter Nellie McKay seems to be from a bygone era and it's fitting that her latest recording pays tribute to one of her heroes, Doris Day.

Today's Top Tune is from Normal As Blueberry Pie: A Tribute to Doris Day and it's called "If I Ever Had A Dream."
