Sweeet tune! Sad story behind it, but I guess that's how we get the inspiration.
I have to say it's an incredible production, very loud and clear, you can hear everything!
A job well done!

A saucy little ditty from the Jip and LJ laboratory. The first thing I've sung for 3 weeks (been resting a very strained voice - eek!)

I may…
