me? a crooner?
went to the AmerLegion just to hang out, ended up singing a bit…other than not even knowing what to do with my empty hands, it was fun…the guy who’s set it was supposed to be still makes me nervous and I’m not alone…but tonight at least, I was a damn good singer–there I said it, right out loud…someone said that BECAUSE I wasn’t playing an instrument, I could focus on the singing…that’s logical…did three songs; if we hadn’t killed so much time deciding on the set list we might have done four…allegedly there is a short video…
for the third (or fourth) time I sang YOU SEND ME, which by choice brings out my inner crooner…that is something new for me, but I kinda like it…rock songs, blues songs even older country songs, I’ve done those…Sam Cooke? not so much…Many years ago I tried to sing COLOR MY WORLD (also quite “croony”) but I couldn’t keep a straight face…maybe now I could, perhaps…
