Yes, I really should be writing right now. But research is so much fun!

I have a sneaking suspicion that I've seen this link before on my f-list, but I'm not certain.

Parlor Songs.

Sheet music from the late 19th and early 20th century. Check out the catalog--an alphabetical list of all the songs on the site. All are available in either midi and/or scorch, and there are scans of the sheet music covers. Lovely! Considering the project I'm working on, I was entertained to discover a cheery march (circa 1901) called "A Signal from Mars" and a 1902 song called "The Girl from Mars." So now I'm going around humming to myself.

For I am the girl from Mars
The sweetest in all the stars
A topsy-turvey hurly-burly girl am I.
I do not care for cars
We haven't them up in Mars
So when I make a trip, of course I fly.
