Title: 倦怠 (Translation: Ennui) Jazz song with female vocal - 10/03/20 07:21 AM
Hello, forum friends
This time I would like to post a jazz vocal song.
It is a song about the feelings of a couple who have got tired of their married life.
I have prepared two versions with different arrangements.
One is a fast tempo combo jazz version using Band-in-a-box MIDI style.
The other is a slow tempo live band version with strings arrangement.
The music circle I belong to has a recording session every summer and winter, but this summer it was canceled due to the corona disturbance, so I am using the recording of the session 7 or 8 years ago.
I have strengthened the strings part for the reproduction.
Any comments encouraged.
Always welcome.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi

Summary of lyrics:
As I happened to be approached by a good guy
I got out of the party with him
Because I really wanted to get drunk
In a different place other than where you were
That's it, nothing happened to us
We just drank together
You doubt it, don’t you?
Rather than that, who was that girl by your side there?
Our marriage has already collapsed
We are just saying bad things every day
And there isn't even a piece of kindness
Now I'm really sad, I can't believe we loved so much before
Our relationship can be no longer restored
Let us break up, there should be no regrets
It's too miserable to continue living together like this
I understand it so well, but I can't get started to say
Love is melancholy
I'm going back to the usual place again today
Unsteadily in the middle of the night
Ennui, Ennui
