Do you have a " party piece"?

I've just heard a song on the radio which reminded me of a friend of my parents, as he sang it ( beautifully) at family gatherings ( Macushla).
My father's song was " When I Leave the World Behind", and my mother's was " O Mio Babbino Caro".
I have been known to murder " Summertime" and " I Want to be a Prima Donna".

My late FIL's party piece was "Don't laugh at me 'cause I'm a fool". Ex-BIL used to sing "Streets of London" at any opportunity. Same BIL used to hold great family parties where most people did a turn. One of their friends used to do a great mime to Pavarotti's "Nessun Dorma" complete with hanky.
