(Lullaby) The first song I ever heard. I remember Mama singing it to me
and me crying, only half understanding the words, because of the sweetness
of the melody. Later I found out that it is a traditional lullaby. I think
we can do a very decent job with three voices, me singing the lyrics, you
humming harmony, perhaps a drone of some sort - or not... |
