“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. smile

Fun!

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.

Thanks, Bob. A litle over 200 in 5 years, but only 1 or 2 good ones.

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.


Enjoy whatever happens!

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" laugh
