This song, "Homage to My Cats", is the next outcome of the reviewing effort last year. (The first one is "Visiting Beautiful Kyoto (Remixed)" I posted last week (1/11/19)).
It is a revised version of "Homage to Cats", and is much simpler and more elegant than the original. I hope, however, you would listen to it as a new song.

As always, your feedback will be highly appreciated.

You can listen to the song at the following address on Soundcloud.

Fun and whimsical, just like a cat's attitude.
I lived with cats all my life, I dig it smile

Maybe you should license this to cat cafe in Japan, so they can play it for cats. I remember when I visited Tokyo years ago, cat cafes where very popular.

Best regards,
Misha.

Hi Misha,

Thank you for your comment. I am glad you think the song well describes cats' attitude. Because you are a cat fancier, let me introduce my cats to you.

Yes, cat cafes are popular in Japan. I understand they are for the people who love cats very much but are not allowed to have them at their home for some reasons.

Licensing the song to cat cafes looks a nice idea but no plan so far smile

Best regards,
Hiroshi

Thank you for your comment. I understand Chili the cat is the name of a tweeter in Texas. Am I right? Is he very popular?

Hi J&B,

Thank you for your comment. I am glad you like the song.

I am sure your Border Collie is very cute. We had a dog at home for a long time. It was just 8 years ago that we had a cat for the first time. I must confess we were instantly knocked out by her.
