The gentle, relaxing syncopation of the bossanova rhythm lulled me into a very pleasant listening space. I enjoyed this. The melody snuggles really nicely against the Latin rhythm.

I've just read Shigeki Adachi's comments and I realised that never in my life have I used a b5(#11) chord! I'm very impressed that you managed to work it into the arrangement. I have no idea how to use that chord! I'm going to have to seriously ponder that.

The lyrics appealed to me. The concept of using herbs for lyric content proved to be very successful for Simon and Garfunkel when they created a song based on the traditional English folk song 'Scarborough Fair'... I wish you equal success.

Thank you for sharing your post with us all!

All the best,
