Hilary, I look forward your verse of HHH!  and after i propose to you  "would you like to play the guitar?"

you know it? This is a parody of the Warren / Van Heusen classic, "Swing On A Star" written by Pat Donohue :) :) :)

I'm not keen, I don't like parodies much (unless they're mine) and I don't play the guitar so the irony's a bit lost with me singing it. There are plenty of others I'd rather do - just managed to load HHH on the BR btw.

Thought I'd commented, obvs not.

Breath of fresh air, this one.  Love the arrangement.  Also love that bit of sexual ambiguity when you sing "I won't share you with another boy"

I love to hear unusual versions of well known songs, especially when they work as well as this. Brilliant re-interpretation. Bravo!!!

Really wasn't sure whether it would work with a female voice but I wanted to sing it and so I sung it!

I wasnt sure what to expect but enjoyed it in the end, I like the mellow feel, a bit jazzy!

Oh well ........

I would never have thought this was a Police song apart from the lyric but in fact I enjoyed it a lot. Great feel. I for one would like to hear more of this style of interpretation.   Willie

A very creative rendering of this one.  A fun listen!

These days I merely dabble at being old and wise.
But I swear, I used to absolutely excel at being young and stupid.

Very unexpected take on this. The jaunty nature plays against the lyrics in a very cool way. It makes you sound almost exasperated with Roxanne for her choices.

Nice job making it your own.

A good listen.
