Advantages: 70's pop perfection Disadvantages: could never be matched there after
...and miserable end of year . But fear not , as ‘Concerto for a rainy day’ will soon cheer you up on such days . Uplifting , upbeat , with some wonderful orchestration thrown in , particularly on the ‘Summer and Lightening’ track , whoose electrical orchestral interlude is thunderous , and to cap it all , the monumental 70’s pop classic ‘Mr. Blue Sky” - dare I say more !
2) Jungle
Pure fun , with a disco type beat , featuring animal sounds and even Tarzan ! If this song doesn’t put a smile on your face then your’e dead !
I was standing in the jungle
I was feelin’ alright
mmhmm , mmhmm
I was wanderin’ in the darkness
In the middle of the night
mmhmm , mmhmm
The moon began to shine
I saw a clearing ahead
mmhmm , mmhmm
But what’s that goin’ on
I think I’m out of my head
mmhmm , mmhmm
Chooka chooka hoo la ley
Looka looka koo la ley...
