“Popular Songs That Will Live Forever”

When I was growing up, my mom ordered piano fakebooks from Reader’s Digest.  One bore the title of this song and I was always enchanted with the idea of it.  All the hits from the 1920s until the early 1970s.  “Far Away Places”, “Tie A Yellow Ribbon” and “Tea For Two.”  

I’m pretty proud of this song.  Three different sections, three different tempi.  A key change.  Even slapped on a horn section for those who have missed my hot trumpet and trombone skills. 

Sing ‘em along, you’ll live forever too.
