“Don't be afraid of crashing waves. They wash away all the strife. And when you feel the world is drowning you, the breeze will save your life.” Excellent! We don’t sail but we get the same relief in nature on a bicycle ride or a hike. You hit the nail on the head, Marty. That’s a fun band and your background “vocal horn section” is awesome! Well some folks call it scatting but we immediately thought brass.  Fun! J&B
Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos

I'm looking forward to it when it comes, Marty.
Your scat singing reminded me of one of my heroes, Roger Miller.
I wish I could do it.

Hey Marty, Fun song, good vocal and great harmonies! Love the scat at the end especially, made me smile picturing you doing it  Thanks, Dave. The carefee scat cold use some Melodyning. This one almost goit past me, don't know how I missed it. Nice song, love the nautical allegory, and the scat singing at the end. How many songs have you written now? More than all the sonnets you wrote, I'll bet! Great work, Babumusic owes you a raise! Thanks, Bob. A litle over 200 in 5 years, but only 1 or 2 good ones. Marty,
What a happy, perky little tune.
It put a smile on my face for sure! Thanks, David. It's cool when a song brings a smile at times like these/ I was hooked immediately and smiling throughout. Love all those vocals!! Well done. Thanks, Scott. Keep smiling!! “Don't be afraid of crashing waves. They wash away all the strife. And when you feel the world is drowning you, the breeze will save your life.” Excellent!

Well some folks call it scatting but we immediately thought brass. Fun! J&B Thanks, Janice & Bud. Yeah, i'm a landlubber too. A walk in the woods is a great reset. Don't be afraid of thunder storms. The lightning splits the strife. And when you feel the world surrounding you, the trees will saveyour life.

My favorite sailor shows his skills once again. Pleasant and bouncy tune on the sea of life. I really enjoyed the vocals, scatting and imaginative backing vocals. The uplifting message is the lighthouse, and the words like "Through the calm night, we'll be doing what we please." are what we need to be the captains of our lives. Your slogan seems to be "When you listen to Babu Music it lifts your soul"  Janne
