Hahaha. Well I'm more than happy to contribute to your coffee habit with talent like that. Definitely let us know if you post it online (please do!). Loved the simple, raw interpretation.

@duggan23 Aww thanks! That was one of Clooney's picks, and though I had heard it before, I learned it just for the film. I've actually gotten a few similar requests, so I might have to throw it up on youtube...or iPhone voice memo it to you or something. Thanks for renting the movie by the way. That's like 4 cents I can spend at my fav Detroit coffee shop.

your interpretation of we'll meet again is a pure jewell...

haunting melody and pristine voice

What more to ask for ?

Mo.

@Moshe13us Thanks Mo! Although Clooney had a hand in the interpretation too. I would have done it a little differently. haha. But I can't say I didn't like his take on it. Checked out the Stevie arrangement you did too! Very elegant approach, and a unique interpretation..

Just wanted to say I'm in LOVE with you after seeing you in Ides of March. Wish I could find recordings of those songs you sang! Please make more jazz recordings!! :D

[robertmervak]

@LimelightsFaded Thanks a lot. I appreciate the shout, and the encouragement. Good to tap into a little bit of the feedback on the whole thing. It was a VERY fun project. Also, very poignant and insightful stuff on your clips! Keep in touch!
