I'm sorry folks, but I had to post this. I'm not quite sure what to say...especially when the singing kicks in. :o

Thanks guys much appreciated.

The one chord arrangement is band in a box. I fed different versions into BIAB to see the chord structure tempo etc. But I wasn't happy with the sound as it was too dull. I kept knocking chords out & changing styles & increasing tempo until I felt it was more fun.

I have never had much joy with commercially available backing tracks as I feel most are too overpowering for the harmonica. I don't think IMO the harmonica needs full orchestral backing (at least not on my playing) but just some simple strumming accompaniment is enough.

Maybe, as suggested, I could rework the lyrics and truly make it a happy tune. We'll see?

The Wallabies (Kangaroos) are in the wild &  I photographed them last Sunday on the front lawn of a place we were staying at in the Bunya Mountains National Park ca 250ks from Brisbane.  Davina & I were at our beach house & we received a call from our Daughter to join her family for the weekend up at the Bunya Mtns. There were Wallabies everywhere. No need to visit Zoos in order to see our native animals. All the other scenes ie creek etc are shot at the same location. The overlay photos were old shots of friends & family.  :)
