there was the time i wish i could croon
like frank sinatra in vegas
or leonard cohen in singer hall
moan like dylan at cafe wa
or sing like the great hank williams
belting song after song
drinking some old jack daniels
singing songs of love and pain
now mi sueno is to croon like ibrahim ferrer
soulful seductive and raw
giving a live performance in a smoky room
at la bodeguita in old havana
with bassist cachito lopez
pianist roberto fonseca
guitarist manuel galbon
and the old seductive diva omara porftuordo
cantante melodico (crooning)
su corazon engano (your cheatin heart)
mi sueno (my dream)

I like the sound of drinking some old Jack Daniels.
Toronto I was thinking of - China Town
Wonderful~ I too dream of crooning, but I'm more of a croaker.
I'm with you on this. I've always wanted to warble like Ella Fitzgerald or belt out a blues tune like Etta James. You capture the longing for that very well.

Yes yes yes Ella ..Etta for sure love them....they are right up there with the great cuban omara porftuordo
I wish I can croon too...and speak Spanish. Very evocative.
