----- ABOUT THE TUNE-----
"I Got Rhythm" is a song composed by George Gershwin with lyrics by Ira Gershwin and published, which became a jazz standard. Its chord progression, known as the "rhythm changes", is the foundation for many other popular jazz tunes such as Charlie Parker's and Dizzy Gillespie's Bebop standard "Anthropology (Thrivin' From a Riff)". The song has become symbolic of the Gershwins, of swing, and of the 1920s.
----- LYRICS -----
Days can be sunny,
With never a sigh ;
Don't need what money can buy.
Birds in the tree sing
Their dayful of song,
Why shouldn't we sing along?
I'm chipper all the day,
Happy with my lot.
How do I get that way?
Look at what I've got :
I got rhythm
I got music
I got my gal
Who could ask for anything more?
I got daisies
In green pastures,
I got my gal
Who could ask for anything more?
Ol'Man Trouble,
I don't mind him.
You won't find him
'Round my door.
I got starlight,
I got sweet dreams,
I got my gal,
Who could ask for anything more?
Who could ask for anything more?

I like the visuals, especially the frames "hopping" when a certain voice chimes in. It made me smile.

This is my favorite version of this song ever ever ever Amen!

[@duwhitegoku1]

I wish I could wake up to your voice, Julien.

[@JulienNeel]

Glad you enjoyed it! :)

[@JulienNeel]

Thanks! It was a tough piece to sing, definitely one of my most ambitious projects. I'm really happy with how it turned out! ;)

[@JulienNeel]

LOL Thanks! ;)
Plenty more A Cappella on my channel by the way.

[@SaraNiemietz]

Amazing!

[@SongeLeReveur]

Yes, j'adore ce morceau !

[@JulienNeel]

Thanks Wendy! ;)

[@Briikaaz]

LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!!!!

[@JulienNeel]

Of course. There's always sheet music for close harmony. Just read the video description if you're interested in my services.

[@JulienNeel]

Indeed, it was a tough piece and a bowl of fun! ;)

[@JulienNeel]

Thanks! I use Sony Vegas Pro and simply create close keyframes and have the videos move rapidly from one keyframe to the next. I then add smooth & fast transitions to add add acceleration / deceleration effect to the movement. :)

[@JulienNeel]

Yeah, my low range used to fluctuate too, but I noticed that it was because I was creating tension in my throat. When you learn to sing with less tension, your lower range develops, as well as the depth of your voice. But since you feel less resistance in your throat, it can be a little surprising at first, since you feel nothing. But if you record yourself, you'll see how much bigger and fuller the sound is. Opera singers with an orchestra can't hear themselves, they mostly rely on feeling. :)

[@JulienNeel]

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it! Do share our video &spread the music!
As for iTunes, I could put it there, yes. The problem is that it's far from being free to upload music on iTunes, there are mechanical licensing fees (copyright holder) and well as iTunes space rental fees (to be allowed to sell on iTunes), and on top of that iTunes takes another cut on sales (~25%).
In the end, the artist gets nearly nothing, unless the sales are in the hundreds, which I doubt will happen for this tune.

[@JulienNeel]

Yes of course: I sing all my songs from sheet music. The arrangements I use are for 4 male voices a cappella. :)

[@kaloo051]

Toujours un régal, aussi bien pour le choix des morceaux, du partenaire ou au niveau du chant. Bravo !
Pascal

[@JulienNeel]

Thank you, much appreciated! ;)

[@Powershotknecht]

Great, Great!

[@JulienNeel]

Thanks! Pass it on to a friend! :)

[@MusiqueFille33]

I loved this! My whole family does barbershop and I absolutely love it!!

[@alvaritoelflaco]

Sounds amazing, congratulations... saludos desde uruguay

[@JulienNeel]

Indeed it is. :)

[@JulienNeel]

Merci ! N'hésite pas à faire circuler parmi tes amis ! ;)

[@JulienNeel]

Sure, I'll add it to my list. Lots of songs to do and so little time! ;)

[@JulienNeel]

Thank you! ;)

[@MusicalThespian22]

I was recently in a production of "Crazy For You", a Gershwin musical with this song as the showstopping tap number. This brought back many fond memories; thank you.

[@JulienNeel]

it's our pleasure! Feel free to share our video with your friends! ;)

[@Caity100100]

I can't stop listening!

[@spazzy217]

Excellent!
When I was in high school, we did this as a show choir piece. One of my favorite songs!

[@JulienNeel]

As always: I'm open to new song ideas and take suggestions. I only ask that you provide me with sheet music to work from. All the song I perform are based off sheet music, it's a necessary (and time consuming) step. So if you've got sheet music, preferably for TTBB male a cappella, shoot. :)

[@JulienNeel]

Thank you for sharing them with friends! ;)

[@Waxnell]

I make a point to watch all my favorites once a week.

[@JulienNeel]

Thanks my friend! I would say James influenced me per se, I'm the one who suggested we do this song, which is really barbershop, but with a jazzy twist that I thought James would like. :)

[@MrLotsofGiggling]

I agree with you sir. I like it, keep 'em coming baby!!!!

[@JulienNeel]

Thankk you! Share with friends! ;)

[@JulienNeel]

Thanks! ;)

[@JulienNeel]

Thanks! The arrangement is a transcription, it's not my composition. I use Audacity to record my audio.

[@JulienNeel]

Thank you, glad you enjoyed the show!
Don't forget to check out James' channel too. Plenty of treats for the ear. ;)

[@jumblejohn1]

This is probably the only form of music (that I know anyway) that really shows off what someones voice can do rather that having it in the background with the instruments creating the tune. The harmony is brilliant (quick note I've probably used harmony in the wrong context).

[@JulienNeel]

Awesome, thanks! :)

[@cachuflette]

wow! speechless... regards from Buenos Aires, Argentina

[@Tessasdadd0]

Most excellent! And then some!!!

[@ginadodds2695]

Your performances, Julien, lift my spirits. Thanks. Gina Dodds

[@GamingRelaxation2044]

love it

[@rhopen]

Wonderful Julien, I always enjoy your renditions. -Ron

[@JulienNeel]

Thanks! Tell the world! ;)

[@thenamesbanana]

Thiiis...Is perfection.

[@ComedicArtist866]

Vous avez la plus belle voix!!!!!

[@JulienNeel]

Thanks buddy. :)

[@atavener]

Love all your barbershop videos. Easily the best acapella channel I've found on UA-cam!

[@freelancer9955]

A riveting a cappella singing of the masterpiece! Many thanks!

[@danwright32]

great job, both of you! I love this song, and I love what you guys did it with it, both in the singing and the video editing.

[@JulienNeel]

Schön! ;)

[@JulienNeel]

Video tricks? There are merely a few fade ins/outs and some movement every now and then, in places I felt would be appropriate.
Several people mentioned my videos felt a bit static, so I tried something with a little more action for a change. The eye also has to be entertained too, this is a video. ;)

[@Diguitarist]

You are very talented. Very awesome arrangement. I always enjoy your new stuff.

[@JulienNeel]

Yes, I've heard their performances. A bowl of fun! I liked this arrangement by Bluegrass Student Union, because of the upbeat tempo and dissonant chords. I thought it would be a good opportunity to branch out to jazzmen like James. ;)

[@MLH780]

Magic of technology + Magic of Music = Amazing Music

[@ex59neo53]

Alors là chapeau bas messieurs ... brillante prestation :)

[@dgillespie13]

Thanks for the video, and all the others posted. The time for these projects comes through in the quality. Clean clean clean.

[@lindaweaverclarke]

Loved it! Simply beautiful!

[@JulienNeel]

Thanks man. :)

[@rotflmaopmpqxyz]

Incredible

[@JulienNeel]

Thanks! Share our a cappella video and spread the rumor! ;)

[@Riyalukose]

i love this song!!

[@sgtsonny]

What the hell just happend?! What a crazy arrangement! You guys did a brilliant job with an, undeniably, very hard arrangement. The project went from good to great at 1:48! That blew me away. How freaking clean was this project? I almost can't believe the work you guys must have put into it :). Long story short: I'm a fan :)

[@chostylish]

Excellent!!! You guys did an amazing job with this.

[@vitorhugo0]

Wonderful! I've said it before and I'll say it again you have a wonderful voice and a lot of talent. Everyone you collaborate with also happens to be very good. One thing I can say is that you have always exceeded my expectations in each video

[@JulienNeel]

Thanks! Feel free to order any of my audio learning tracks (email in the video description), if you'd like to learn any song on my channel. Cheers ;)

[@JulienNeel]

Ah, thank you, I appreciate it. ;)
