three interpretations.....

[thoreau]

adding to my last post...

here are three distinctly different interpretations of "The Way You Look Tonight"

(THREE mp3 files in a .zip file here (17M))

a) Chris Botti - trumpet solo
b) Doris Day - goddess solo
c) Westminster Barbershop Chorus - mens chorus tight harmony

Botti is so smooth and actually very sexy, Doris is so goddamned happy you can hear her cakewalking this song in the recording studio because was on the list of standards the label wanted her to sing... (but I love her - and this version of this song) and the barbershop chorus - is simply heartwrenchingly beautiful - the arrangement soars to these peaking barbershop harmonies - everytime the "because I love you.." lyric is sung - absolutely beautiful.

Footnote:
I thought of bearfuz for some reason when listening to it.. how interesting. Chip? Have you ever sung in a barbershop quartet?
