Tomorrow's the big day ~ SPRING! I know it doesn't feel very Spring-y but the sun will return, promise.
I also promise you'll love Blossom Dearie's "They Say It's Spring"; she debuted it in 1958. By Marty Clark (#lyric) & Bob Haymes (#music), it's got this ten bar refrain that's just the bee's knees. I'm determined to cover it (in my key), make it last six minutes LOL
