Just finishing this up:
Having never 'tweeted' in my life, I'll leave my 'tweets' in this big-band style song!

Let's Tweet!

Flash like a star 'cross the sky of blue;
Woosh like a rocket, must be you!;
Know you can't stop--you're just passing through;
Coffee or sup? We should hook up!

Came to say hey, you'd already flown;
Missed you when I called on the mobile phone;
We're both real busy and we're never home;
If we can't meet, LET'S TWEET!

We could be blessed in a cozy little love nest
If you'd just cool your feathers, we might get a moment together!

All through the day you got places to be;
Spending your time goin' tree-to-tree;
How can I woo you, sweep you off your feet?
Tell you you're oh, so sweet?
If we can't meet LET'S TWEET!

We could be blessed if we''d just STOP and build that love nest
No textin' sisters, brothers-- sit real still and nuzzle each other!

One of these days when your schedule's free;
See if you can squeeze out a minute for me;
Calendar a lunch or a meet-and-greet--
Love doesn't know defeat!
I know I can make you happy;
You make me complete;
Get off your feet, out of the heat,
If we can't meet--LET'S TWEET!

I really liked this! It sounds so happy and playful. Definitely a catchy, cute little tune smile I can imagine this being the kind of tune that'd make it hard for someone to be in bad mood after listening.

Thanks for sharing!


Cheers,

Boy you have some very cool tunes. They remind me of the songs they played on the tv when I was kid. Very enjoyable and brought back so very good memories..

Hello, Tom

It is a really cheerful big band jazz number.
It reminds me of “Paper Moon” a little bit in this melody.
Your vocal fits it very well.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Big Band at its finest!

Very nice vocals and choice of lead instruments all in the perfect mix.

I can hear either Michael Bublé or Steve March-Tormé singing this one.

Two thumbs up.
