  • New Billie song u know what that means!!
    I actually haven't seen barbie yet but I will on Tuesday I think
    Now I SAY jazz.... I've been seeing a lot of really amazing jazz recently and the truth is I wish I knew more about interesting chords, so this feels pretty basic compared to the real good stuff but I had a fun time making the instrumental for this so here you go.
    Those are some high notes!! I've been doing so much stuff in my lower range so this was a good challenge. Also I was rlly feeling the lyrics during this take haha. And what is an instrumental break if not a moment for the vocalist to ponder?
    Sorry it's been a MONTH I really have been wanting to post consistently - what I will say though is that I have a few covers and originals almost almost done that I just need to do some videos/final things on, so more vids in August.
    NEW MIC ALERT
    I'm renting it..... but it's so good compared to the shuremv5 (sorry). I feel like I have an emotional attachment to the shuremv5 just cause I made my first 2 years of covers with it.
    I'm looking for jazz albums to download and listen to on my commutes. I've been enjoying Chet Baker Sings and Bill Evans/Tony Bennet stuff and also Ella/Louis stuff but I'm always looking for recommendations esp. for vocal jazz so if yall have any lmk!!
    Instrumental made with Logic Pro X

    To be realistic, I don't know how to explain the sensation that your voice can produce. It's calming I guess, it's such a soft voice, keep it up 👌

    Extra suggestions re jazz icons. Add Aretha Franklin as an artist and the following beautiful melodies. "Little Girl Blue", "On Green Dolphin Street", "Every time I say goodbye", "I wish I knew", "To love somebody", "A Foggy Day", "Don't get around much anymore", "Who can I turn to", "You're all I need to get bye", "Where or when", "There writing songs of love (but not for me)", "You light up my life", "Walk on by", "Sorry seems to be the hardest word", "A day in the life of a fool", "Mr Bojangles", "Just the way you are", "Day by day", "Until you come back to me", and many others. Keep up your inspiring pursuits with this jazz interest, and for following your dreams when and where they emerge!

    Another lovely cover! A delayed comment about your mention of jazz albums and classic standards challenged me to chase up an enjoyable exercise of checking out Nina Simone, Sarah Vaughan, Diana Krall, Nat King Cole, Mel Torme, Tony Bennett, as well as Ella Fitzgerald. A pleasant thing to do in a UA-cam search and bringing back memories and remembering wonderful standards, judged by myself (subject to your similar appeal and agreement) as very well suited to your talents, style and performances. Examples are "Little Girl Blue", " Mr Bojangles", "Undecided", "And I love her", "Send in the clowns", "On green dolphin street", "Walk on Bye", "Just the way you are", "Sorry seems to be the hardest word", "Day by Day", "Where or when", 'Don't get around much any more", "To love somebody", "Take me to the water", "Dream a little dream of me", "Every time I say goodbye" and many others.
    Hope this helps!

    My days are always brighter when i see you post a new video.
    Now i know you are looking for vocal jazz recommendations, wich im afraid im not to familiar with that, so ima just recommend my favorite instrumental jazz albums.
    Ryo Fukui - Scenery & Letter from a slowboat... He was (RIP) an AMAZING japanese pianist that taught himself how to play jazz at 24, yea.He use to play in a bar called "Slowboat", hence the name of his album. His wife still owns the bar to this day.
    Audace - 胡蝶の夢、十の夜 (idk how the name its called in english, but you if you type this on youtube it will show up) This one is a FANTASTIC jazzy album, were the only instruments are an accordion and a clarinet, and it just works.
    Yea both albums are Japanese Jazz, what can i say, Japan really knows how to make fantastic jazz.
    I wish you a wonderfull sunday Lucy! You never fail to make me smile.

( Whether we're washing dishes, caressing the flowers, looking up at the sky, strolling leisurely, or lazily curled up in bed... we often find ourselves humming a tune in the midst of these everyday moments, and this song by Lucy is one of them, and it's so relaxing to listen to.

    Sorry but my somewhat fallible memory brain cells re Lucy's jazz interests are fired up no matter what I try to do! Whether for a commuting playlist or even a cover for Lucy, Dave Brubeck's influence is beyond question, and a check out of the Montreaux Jazz Festival history (2024 starts soon) is worth a visit with many outstanding artists. I also fondly remember Georgie Fame's "Yeh, Yeh" impact for me (worth a slow cover version) and jazz icons Billie Holliday and Peggy Lee. This is my last comment on this I promise!
