I caught the last few minutes of the Seattle New Year's Eve fireworks display last night on TV. The last two songs that were played along with the fireworks were Elton John's "Can You Feel The Love Tonight" and Liza Minelli blarting out "Caberet." Please explain to me what either of these songs have to do with:

1. Seattle;
2. fireworks;
3. 2009;
4. New Year's Eve;
5. anything relevant to humanity.

Thanks.
