Hey folks
I usually muck about on the piano but this last year I was working away and I had a little acoustic guitar with me so I tried to practise it. As you can hear Im not exactly fluent but Ive been enjoying strumming away to myself so I thought Id share.
its great to see the music community rallying again and @lordbutterfly can take yet another hive related bow on that one. good job sir!
heres my twitteX post:
This is actually NOT by Frank Sinatra, and wasn't even sung by him originally so my apologies to Mr. Bart Howard who was the original craftsman and Kaye Ballard who made the original recording in 1954. Who knew?
Anyway, I whapped a couple more verses in to pad it out. The original lyrics seem to be suggesting that being in love with this person is the equivalent of being flown to the moon because of how awesomely intoxicating the romance must be. My added verses are leaning a bit more towards the desire to be alone together and away from the pressures of life on Earth.
Surprisingly.....NOTHING to do with Hive going to the Moon
but I think someone should probably write that as a crypto parody song?
hint hint
Peace and Love everyone! x x

Well, that caught me off guard a bit. :)
Im assuming thats a good thing :) was it the sudden shift in to reverb?
Just in general.
Definitely high quality here bro, can wind down to this entry from a long day, you performed it to a tee in basilmarples style and is deserving to be listened to
thanks verbal. I appreciate the love man x x
Always man, appreciate you and your influence
I like your version even more than Sinatra's! We do this song with my jazz band with me on vocals. It's a fun one. Good luck in the contest.

woah. thats high praise! thankyou steev.
Its a lot more emo than sinatras version.....and shamefully, I havnt yet bothered to listen to Kaye Ballards original version
Wow, that was so relaxing.
Beautiful! 👏
thankyou very much! I really enjoyed putting a bit of a chilled out vibe on this song to make a change from the upbeat showman style that Sinatra gives it
Holy Basil youuu rock!!!!!!!
