Woooo. On this one Dani, I can close my eyes and I'm setting in a dark restaurant, my lady dressed in red, roses on a white table cloth, wine glasses - Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall come in through the front double doors ......
Cool stuff here on this song. Enjoyed it from start to finish.

Hi, Guenter !:))
You are too kind as always but I am truly glad if you liked the tune even without any harmony ! I did ponder on putting some in at places but I refrained from it as I wanted to depict a lone jazz singer singing in all by himself for a few couples in a dark restaurant (LOL) !!!:))
Cheers Dani

Well, Rob and Anne-Marie !:))
This may be outside the box, but sometimes it just feels good to be there !:)) I love to sing jazz though I´m not doin´it right ! (LOL)! I should use less vibrato and sing over the bars more than I do, but nonetheless, I do thank you for your kind comments !
Cheers Dani

Hi, Josie !:))
....and thank you for your most kind words and well wishes !:)) I also hope that our preps will work out well. I´ve heard that we are expecting at least two barbershop choruses from Sweden, so it will be a "helluva" singing weekend with lots of groups ringing chords all around !:))
Cheers Dani
