Happy Birthday Song in the style of Elton John's "Your Song" ...for Madeleine

Dorothy-2013---> Caberet vs. Amazon stock 4X up since then.

It looks like stocks in general jumped up after the 2008 "bailouts" or "Quantitative Easings", the phony operation that saved big banks from their crashing "derivatives".... and it looks like the money got put into those stocks again in 2013. You can see it all on the Amazon chart which looks like all the other DOW charts in the same period, more or less. I played stocks for too short a term to make anything. Also Gold and Silver crashed after 2013, that money going into stocks too. Here's Dorothy playing CABERET, from the movie reflecting life in the 1920's before the big Crash of 1929. You can study & consider the AMAZON chart below while listening!

                                         

Short test cut for "Cocaine"-- Eric Clapton-- possible senior shout out singalong?

Tecnical problems with camera, sound and other things prevent full upload right now--- just testing this out to see how it sounds. Likely need less reverb on mic... less bass... etc.

Music Magazine: How do you plan your sing alongs for these retirement centers?

Rick: I model our sing along slash shout out songs on the best of whatever version of that song is on youtube. For example, "Takin Care of Business" by BTO is easier to model on a version done live with shoutouts because they demonstrate where the best shout out part is ... takin care of business, everyday, ... everyway, it's alright & workin' overtime. So that's the part I hand the retirees... and only that on it's own page in the singalong book that we have 25 copies of for handing out... and in my binder I'll have the entire lyrics and chords on a sheet that I can follow. It's inspiring and it helps me follow through when I'm leading the group.
