I'm a Suspicious Observer ( I told you so Ben )

Hi all it's been a month since I posted anything...
I was checking out my LazyPianoMan youtube channel and found:

Ok.... guilty as charged frown

But once you see this video... you might see why i couldn't resist.
It's a 4 year old project, the labtop fell and broke, no idea what style I used. It is now legal for me to post.... I am forgiven blush

This video was pointed directly at the YouTube channel: Suspicious Observers

I liked it. Very good work!

Thanks MarioD
I forgot to say; the video happened on the Island of Montreal, 3 mile's away from me. In a borrow named "Lachine" It was published on Nov 1, 2013. I used to live in Lachine as a kid. So the video hit home.
Thanks for your comment, glad you liked it ☺

The Song & Lrics took a week. The animation took a week longer.
Thanks for watching this. I was self conscious about singing, so I sang as a older character. Glad, you enjoyed the humor. Thanks for your wonderful comment smile

Hello, LPman

Very nice jazz vocal tune!
I agree with Janice & Bud.
Creative, funny and a very cool ending!!!
It's amazing to go ahead of "Video RealTracks" more than five years.
Enjoyed my listen and watch a lot.

This video demonstrates how to use the new AI-Notes feature together with the AI-Stems splitter, allowing you to select an audio file and have it separated into individual stems while transcribing each one to its own MIDI track.
