A "live in the bathroom", recorded while giving bath to DaSilvaSingette.

While this song is about loss, longing and death, DaSilvaSingette's (literally) refreshing singing and experimental / odd tempo and time signature water-percussions, bring a sense of lightness to the theme.

Serious note: I was obviously playing the guitar and always with an eye on her. Zero-risk while giving bath to babies!

So.... nevermind the bollocks, here's DaSilvaSings and DaSilvaSingette,

Love Serge Gainsbourg, and you do great justice to the song.

Your vocal register is very similar to his...I enjoyed it thoroughly!  :)

I think this is fantastic, don't know the song, but your vocal sounds great, it's just a lovely recording and paints one of those pictures every dad cherishes
Loved it

Oh my - this is special. What a great concept and execution. So lovely - and great acoustics! Sounds like she's singing along at some points, lol.

I'm a bit partial to Mr Gainsbourg too.

Cheers guys! Thanks for the comments! I wasn't too keen with the "litr" concept, since that is not the way I do music, but i ended up having a lot of fun with both versions.
