Dear Alice, love the bathing suit song, but being slightly challenged rhythmically I can't quite handle the asterisks. I have tried two or three versions of what you have set out -- none seem to fit. Is what you have put down right? Could you explain the asterisks a bit more clearly for those of us who are spasterisk? Is there a beat at the end of "yet", etc.? Yours, Peter P.S. There seem to be a lot of underwear songs in these threads recently. Does this have anything to do with the recent appearance of the boy scouts? (I note the underwear songs seem to be preponderately contributed by ladies).
