(SOUNDBITE OF SONG, "SAY A LITTLE PRAYER")ĬORNISH: This one gives you that little shimmy feeling, right?īLOCK: And Audie, you'd be singing along here if you were in your car?īLOCK: Well, I've been thinking about this. What's your nomination for the Cabin Fever list?ĬORNISH: Hmm, a little pick-me-up - I'd say Aretha Franklin's "Say a Little Prayer." We are Audie, we now have Stevie Wonder on the playlist.
