My daughter’s real name is not Clementine, but she really is away at college and I really do miss her.    She’s a singer/songwriter, and I happen to think she’s very talented (as all mothers are wont to think–though this time it happens to be true).  Recently, she covered the song Moon River from Breakfast at Tiffany’s (by Johnny Mercer and Henry Mancini).  I think it is so beautiful, so wonderfully simple and well done that I am posting it here for your enjoyment.  She plays the guitar on this clip and harmonizes with herself.

I usually try to keep my real life completely separate from my online life.  My daughter did not ask me to share this (though she has approved it), but I love this recording so much that I wanted to see if I could help her to reach a bigger audience (as I’ve stated before, this blog sometimes reaches an audience of  dozens!)  So if you happen to be a record producer or if you just happen to KNOW any record producers– feel free to share this clip!    HA!  Seriously, please indulge this mother bragging on her talented offspring.  Please also note that mean comments will be deleted–as they SHOULD be.  If you want to be nasty, go be nasty to someone famous and thick-skinned, not to my baby on her momma’s blog.  Do not MAKE me cut a bitch.  ‘Kay?

On that note, introducing  Ms. Rainy Blue!

If you want to hear more, please feel free to visit her public facebook page Rainy Day Blues.

Thank you for your indulgence.  Now back to your regularly scheduled program…
