PETER MINTUN: I Can't Get Started (Vernon Duke-Ira Gershwin)

[RadissonMan]

This is the BEST version of this song on YouTube - and yes, that's counting Bunny Berigan's version. Not because of your stunning voice or playing (though both are very good), but because you seem to be the only person who understands that this is a comedic song and shouldn't be played at the pace of a funeral dirge, nor should it be crooned as if it were a tragic romance ballad. It's light and witty and lyrical, and you get that better than anyone. THANK YOU!

LOL, Pepsodent used one of my smiles...such clever lyrics! Another mention of Pepsodent and a fav of mine...You're the baby grand of a lady and a gent,

You're an old Dutch master, you're Mrs. Astor,

You're Pepsodent!
