Recording Day: Augest 8th, 2005
Tennessee Waltz Redd Stewart / Pee Wee King
I was dancing with my darling to the Tennessee Waltz
When an old friend I happened to see
I introduced her to my loved one
And while they were dancing
My friend stole my sweetheart from me
I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz
Now I know just how much I have lost
Yes, I lost my little darling
The night they were playing
The beautiful Tennessee Waltz
i really enjoyed singing this song with Mr. Artie Traum playing his Acoustic Guitar.
i didn't know the lyrics of Tennessee Waltz until I really paid attention to this song.
Being Japanese, I usualy avoid songs with many words.
Because it's just simply too hard to remember.
Then I really paid attention to the lyrics. I fliped! It has a complete lost love story within 8 lines.
Artie and I discussed how we want to do the song.
Initially I wanted to do it as a blues, cause it's a blues story.
So made copy of Ella and Joe doing it as blues.
Artie comments they are such a show off.
Then we settled in this plain most manner for delivering this master song.
On the recording day, sitting next to Artie was such a grounding experience.
I felt that I sat in front of a microphone as a pure singer for the first time.
