And Jim you are right.

It's the song.

Or is it?

I genuinely don't know



I happened to hear a young man sing a verse of Moon River when we played a gig and I thought 'what a great tune' and it's not a bad lyric.


My heart surges for special tunes (Canyon Moonrise for example)


For me it's the tune rather than anything. But I'm not a singer.
