There are lots of reasons why this song is special. I first played this arrangement for a bridal procession at a wedding around 6-7 years ago, for a lovely couple called Hershil and Krupa. It was such a fun and original idea that I kept playing it at weddings after that, and it became a staple of my modern repertoire. Then last July I played this during the wedding ceremony of my friends Alice and Chance. I hadn't realised until later that evening that it was also their first dance, as this song is particularly special to Chance. It was a really beautiful moment and I was honoured to have made another connection with this timeless song.
I have arranged the upload of this video with Alice as a surprise for Chance, to mark their anniversary. Surprise dude!! :D
Adding the finger clicks to this arrangement seemed like the obvious way to get a sense of the great percussion backing from the original song into this version, and seems deceptively easy to do until you start trying to add in all of the vocal line to the right hand too! Playing this over the years has definitely helped me to improve my finger click tone and consistency, although the keen-eared may notice a difference in pitch between my right and left hands that I honestly can't explain to you. The bassline is equally simple sounding but fiddly to execute, and relies on a "clean up" method whereby each finger is replaced as the next plays in order to stop previous notes from ringing. This is a technique I've borrowed from my former Jazz Harp professor and general idol, the magnificent Park Stickney.
