Hi, friends !

Just had to drop in to inform you that
I´m beginning to get in shape - my hip that is.
I have moved to Kirkkonummi to a most lovely
house with a very nice garden - t´was really
good to get out of the hot city indeed !

I have recovered from my injuries but i
have not yet been able to put in too much
steam with composing due to all the fuzz with
illness and moves etc. etc. not to mention
that I am on my way to Spain for the fifth time
in almost two years and so let´s keep our fingers
crossed that the trip can materialize this time !

Meanwhile, friends !

I did stumble upon this tune I wrote
quite a time ago and can´t find lyrics
or instrumentation to ! It is anachronistically
written for the oncoming winter so I guess I´m in fact
way out in advance (quite a bit, really)!

We are going to Spain at the beginning of September
and we´ll come back in November if Higher Powers
will admit !

I do apologize for not being able to present
those particulars you are used to get
in the introduction but I hope nonetheless
that this tune will bring a smile upon your faces !

Take Care all of you !

PS 2

I managed to extract my words out of the song
and they go like this:

THIS IS WINTERTIME (Music & Lyrics by Norman Wibe)

Skies turnin´grey
that´s a certain sign
there´s goin´to be snow
that´ll be so fine
we have waited for so long
thru all autumn long
and it´s gettin´truly cold
now we need to be bold
it is Wintertime !

What are you gonna do know ?
Gotta get outside
take the skis for a ride
on the white snowy ice
gonna be so nice
gonna take us a ride on the sea
the frozen ocean you´ll see
is there for you and for me !

Snow fallin´round
drifts on the ground
all nature is white
you can´t hear a sound
and the freezin´wind is gone
as we´re movin´on
the feelin´s just so great
no matter she´s late
our Wintertime

What are you gonna do know ?
Gotta get outside
take the skis for a ride
on the white snowy ice
gonna be so nice
gonna take us a ride on the sea
the frozen ocean you´ll see
is there for you and for me !

You will have to dress right
not to get a frostbite
skiing in the moonlight
will make you feel allright tonight
what a treat of the night !

We´ll ski away
out around those isles
everything´s white
there for miles and miles
I think we´ll get a flair
for crispy air
and when returnin´back
we´re in for a snack
this is Wintertime !

What are you gonna do know ?
Gotta get outside
take the skis for a ride
on the white snowy ice
gonna be so nice
gonna take us a ride on the sea
the frozen ocean you´ll see
is there for you and for me !
For you and for me !

Dani,
Good to see you back! Don't apologize, glad to see you getting better and doing creative things!
Very nice tune, a lot of harmony is going on. Honestly one of the best songs I have heard by you. Not trying to be nice. It is sophisticated and cool. Thank you for sharing.
P.S. probably ridiculous for Finland to get such high temperatures.

Misha.

Hi, Misha !


Thank you so much for your most
kind comments truly much appreciated !
Thank you also for your kind words referring
to my well being !

You are completely right !
Can´t remember when or if
we have had anything even close
to this heatwave !

Huh....!

In any case moving out to the country
made it a little easier to bear !

Hope you have managed to cool
yourself somehow also !

Cheers
Dani

Anachronistically a song about Wintertime
in the heat of the summer

Interestingly, I heard that Mel Torme and Bob Wells wrote The Christmas Song on a hot day in Summer (Boy, you must be confident that a song is great when you name it that........And it is!).

Nice tune Danny.....classic Dani style!! Hope your trip works out this time! Always love to hear your stuff!! Take care. Greg

This tune glides along like a sleigh ride. It's nice to have a winter song during the heat of the summer.

Good one, Dani!

Hi Dani,

Nice to see you back with a new one! I’ve always been a fan of your vocal style.

Spain! We had a dream vacation planned there for last year. Got cancelled due to covid.

Enjoy!
