Fly Me To The Moon - VIBES Week 1

Hey folks
its great to see the music community rallying again and @lordbutterfly can take yet another hive related bow on that one. good job sir!
I usually muck about on the piano but this last year I was working away and I had a little acoustic guitar with me so I tried to practise it. As you can hear Im not exactly fluent but Ive been enjoying strumming away to myself so I thought Id share.

heres my twitteX post:

Im throwing in a cover of 'fly me to the moon' by Bert Howard it turns out. Try to ignore how dodgy my guitar playing is. #hive #vibeshttps://t.co/7Hx9Yucn46

This is actually NOT by Frank Sinatra, and wasn't even sung by him originally so my apologies to Mr. Bart Howard who was the original craftsman and Kaye Ballard who made the original recording in 1954. Who knew?

Anyway, I whapped a couple more verses in to pad it out. The original lyrics seem to be suggesting that being in love with this person is the equivalent of being flown to the moon because of how awesomely intoxicating the romance must be. My added verses are leaning a bit more towards the desire to be alone together and away from the pressures of life on Earth.

Surprisingly.....NOTHING to do with Hive going to the Moon
but I think someone should probably write that as a crypto parody song?
hint hint

Peace and Love everyone! x x
