Description:
A song for my 2nd daughter's 18th birthday. She's a big Audrey Hepburn fan, so the song is structurally related to "Moon River".

This is my portrait of her at this time in her life.

Lyrics:
Style.
She's got it made.
She's got style.
And she works so
very hard to,
very hard to
make it look easy.

Style.
Even when she's afraid
she's got style.
Do what you do,
and you will come thru
the world...

Do what you do,
and you will come thru
the world
with style.

The world
is waiting
for you,
for all you do,
and for your style.

Great song, love the vocal - reminds me kinda of James Taylor. Beautiful tone on the guitar. Nice intro as well, brush drums are a perfect match. A wonderful gift, thanks for sharing it with us!

Very nice ditty, with grace, elegant simplicity, and, may I say, style.
Seems like a demo, tho, and my ears wanted more arrangement,
something broader, longer, that developed the piece more. Very sweet,
straight forward song writing and an endearing melancholy performance.

You got a nice, smooth vocal delivery that compliments your guitar
playing. You definitley captured that Moon River feel. Very dreamy.
Makes me want to drink a martini by the moonlight.
Thanks

I don't usually listen to 'jazz' but this is so relaxing. Smashing stuff.
I'm sure a fitting tribute to your daughter.

Glad to have heard it

your daughter must have loved this. I sure did.
Has anybody compared your voice to that of James Taylor?
Seems strikingly similar to me.

Stylishly done.

I have to imagine that having a song written for you would be one of the nicest gifts possible. There are few more heartfelt ways of communicating. Wonderfully smooth and simply lovely :)
