Optimistic Cro!
The difference between an optimist and a pessimist, is that the optimist enjoys himself whilst waiting for the inevitable! I AM that optimist!

About Me
- Cro Magnon
- I was born just south of London, but for the past 50 years I've lived in S W France. I am a painter by profession, and writer by desire. Lady Magnon and I live between an ancient cottage in a tiny village in perfectly tranquil French countryside, and a bijou townhouse in Brighton UK. In France we have plenty of fruit trees, all situated amongst a view that takes the breath away, in the UK we have a handkerchief sized patio. We also have a Border Collie called Billy. I try to treat our planet with respect, and encourage others to do likewise (without preaching). Contentment is a glass of red, a plate of charcuterie, and a slice of good country bread. Perfect!
I love the song; beautiful and calming.
ReplyDeleteGreetings Maria x
I think she does a very good job.
DeleteBeautiful. I like it.
ReplyDeleteMe too.
DeleteShes sweet, mind you i hate jazz more than flatulence
ReplyDeleteI'm not a particular Jazz fan, but I do like Ms Motis.
DeleteLove that song! Her voice is kind of hypnotic even better for that song than Mama Cass.
ReplyDeleteI think it's the Spanish accent that does it.
DeleteRIP Glen Campbell. We watched the film of his 'Last Tour' last night and it was very close to home.
ReplyDeleteI just love jazz rhythms Cro.
ReplyDeleteQuite a nice rendition. I always thought that the writer and composer came up with the song after being told to write a song based on the word languor.

Well I listened to that (having switched off a Haydn String Quartet to do so) and was blown away enough to go and explore on Spotify whilst reading other blogs. Well worth the diversion.
