  1. Been subscribed for a years now and only just discovered this track. This song has had special mening to me for a long long time. But the piano rendition you play here is just absolutely wonderful .Very reminiscent of my favourite pianist Oscar Peterson. Thank you!

    The utter indifference that the general public show towards musical genius makes my heart sink. I wonder if anyone in that bar was aware of what magic was being wrought in front of their ears. It reminds me of the recent Washington Post story about Joshua Bell busking in a subway station for an hour — on a Stradivarius — and being all but ignored.

    I want to slap every single one of the people in that room for not applauding at the end of your performance. That was beautiful!

    Ever consider your carbon might be better used for something other than your continued existence?

    fuck. that arrangement! 

  10. amylNRG says:

    Nice line, but it doesn’t in any way affect the basic fact that this is a trite little ditty by an over-rated songwriter.

  11. Thank you for letting me hear this.

    Shades of Vince Guaraldi in there. Awesome cover. Just beautiful.

    That dude in the orange shirt! Never spoke – rarely moved. What up wit dat? The light swich behind him made it look like he had a mohawk.

    Something I’ve learned from being a performer for the past few years is that you have to really detach yourself from the feeling of the audience, and completely engulf yourself in what you’re doing. Regardless of how your audience feels about what you’ve done, a good musician will take what they’re playing and mold it to what they want to hear in it.

    I’ve never once asked someone what they thought about my performances. I’ve only asked myself, and that’s what I’m looking for in my performance.
