My Sad Song (Hilary)

[Hilary]

Messing about when I should be asleep . . .

My Sad Song

This is my sad song in a minor key
This is my sad song in a minor key
I'm going to sing it slowly
About what you mean to me

This is my love song in a minor key
This is my love song in a minor key
I'm going to sing it slowly
Hoping you'll listen to me

This is the instrumental section I'm going hum a bit
This is the instrumental section I'm going to hum a bit
Humming
I should have whistled it

Je'en danse pas, je ne veux pas (I won't danse, I don't want to)
Je'en danse pas, je ne veux pas (I won't danse, I don't want to)
Je'en danse pas monsieur avec toi, ce soir (I won't danse sir with you tonight)
Je'en danse pas, je ne veux pas avec toi, ce soir (I won't danse sir with you tonight)

This is my siren call for you
This is my siren call for you
It's the last chance for me and you

Oooh
It's the last chance for me and you

I recognized a few of the french words because Patti Labelle used some of them in a song called "Lady Marmalade".....one of my favorite pop tunes of all time... incredible story I might add....
most of your songs I get at least one chuckle somewhere...this was no exception... cute!!!!

I am going to hum a bit I write a lot songs by humming parts before I know the words brought a smile to my face
Well done

I'm sorry it made me laugh a bit .. am I forgiven?
Interestingly has a blues structure but with minor chords, so unusual, the french part too.
That's only to say mmmmmhhh mmmm (humming) great one, I love your last productions, stay awake !!!

I'm sorry it made me laugh a bit .. am I forgiven?

It was meant to be funny!

[StephenM]

and btw...your singing on this is especially lovely

[cuthbert]

Beautifully sung, and I loved the piano accompaniment. And it was funny... tres magnificque!

Love the overt sarcasm on this one  . For a such a sad song, I was grinning as I was listening, lol. This is literally me teaching my kids the difference between major and minor chords - "This one sounds sad" haha
