Welcome one and all to the first #TuneUpThursdays hailing not only from the month of November, but also my first from the city of Saskatoon, SK. (Also, apologies for the late upload - It has been a tiring day of travel.)
The rest of this year's tracks will be coming from the prairies, as I get ready to start rehearsals tomorrow for "Elf: The Musical" at Persephone Theatre in December!
Initially, I thought this month's theme was gonna be easy. And then I realized it wasn't so. And then I found out even with the alternative to the same idea, it still wasn't any easier, and actually became quite backwards and tricky.
With American thanksgiving being a November holiday, my initial idea was to cover songs that had the words "Thank You", or "Thanks" in the title. And then I realized that in my thousands of pieces of sheet music, I didn't have enough to cover the month. So then, I decided to expand a little bit, and just cover songs that had the words "Thank You" or "Thanks" in the lyrics. I had enough songs to cover the four weeks, but some of the songs' use of the word "Thanks" wasn't as genuine as I hoped.
Anyhow, to kick off November's "Thank You" month, please enjoy my cover of Sara Bareilles' hit song "King Of Anything".
And as always, if you like what you hear, please share with your friends and family.
