Hey guys, decided to try something different this time and sing for a change. I arranged this song a while ago as an instrumental, but I'm singing it for my voice class in college so I figured I'd tweak it a bit to fit my voice. The swing beat strumming proved more difficult than I expected, but I tried my best to play in time and as clean as possible. I apologize for the junk quality (I don't have batteries atm for my flip video), but hopefully you guys enjoy!

Aloha Casey,....SHAKA BRAH, nicely done..........................BO.......................
 
Sweet Casey! Especially enjoyed the instrumental break - a really nice arrangement. I dig your voice and it's well suited to a crooner tune like this.... this is actually one of my favorite songs and I've been fooling around with it myself - it's great to see it so well performed.

If you haven't heard it, you might enjoy this version, my favorite: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2YbnYkHL0Ek It's Sinatra with Count Basie's orchestra performing an arrangement by a young Quincy Jones. This whole album is great - one of the best swing vocal records I've ever heard....
 
Finally got a chance to listen to it.

Great job on this, Casey. The solo was amazing.
 
Very very nice

You got a nice voice, and the instrumental part was awesome.

Thanks for sharing

Thanks so much guys! It's really encouraging to hear compliments about my singing.. I'm pretty much strictly an instrumentalist, but I think I'll be attempting more vocal covers in the future because of all of your guys' encouragement. :)
 
Casey, man, this was just wonderful stuff. The playing was brilliant but your voice is a revelation mate. You sing really beautiful, so smooth. Loved it! Bravo!
