    So -- I had a wedding to play at a couple of weeks ago and I was trying to figure out what nice love songs to play. This song popped into my head because of the sweet, classic lullaby, You Are My Sunshine. So I looked it up and it turns out, it is most definitely not a wedding song BUT it is a beautiful song and I decided I wanted to cover it. I asked my friend Ben Mulwana if he wanted to collaborate on this video and here it is! We hope you love it!

    When I was a very little boy my grandmom sitting in her large rocking chair used to hold me in her lap and sing this song to me as she gently rocked me.
    This song brought back some bittersweet memories of that lovely woman who took time from her busy daily schedule to rock and sing to me. Thanks for the memory. Very nicely done!!

    You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
    You make me happy when skies are grey
    You'll never know dear, how much I love you Please don't take my sunshine away
    The other night, dear, as I lay sleeping
    I dreamed I held you in my arms
    But when I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
    And I hung my head and I cried
    I'll always love you and make you happy
    If you will only say the same
    But if you leave me to love another
    You'll regret it all some day
    You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
    You make me happy when skies are grey
    You'll never know, dear, how much I love you Please don't take my sunshine away
    You told me once, dear, you really loved me
    And no one else could come between
    But now you've left me and love another
    You have shattered all my dreams
    You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
    You make me happy when skies are grey
    You'll never know dear, how much I love you Please don't take my sunshine away

    @itsallgoodmate8738 4 года назад +4

    I remember my mother singing this to me as in a lullaby way. She only repeated the same bit over and over . As she called me her sunshine when I was young .i remember just going to sleep without any care and knowing I was loved. Thank you for taking me back to such a beautiful ❤️ moment in time. Your version was subtle but powerful at the same time . Thanks 😊

  • @Yesica1993
    @Yesica1993 5 лет назад +53

    Also, I loved the subtle harmonies. I've sung a lot of harmonies & I love when it's not overdone, but rather bringing out/highlighting the beauty of the song. This was beautifully done.

    • @melanyanguilar5620
      @melanyanguilar5620 4 года назад

      Can you explain to me exactly what harmony is? Does it have to be with two people or is harmony also a solo thing?

    • @Yesica1993
      @Yesica1993 4 года назад +1

      ​@@melanyanguilar5620
      I'm just an amateur singer, not formally music trained. I'll try my best:
      It is two or more people singing at once. One person does the melody, the main tune of the song. At the same time, the other person(s) sing complimentary notes. Or rather, notes within that same chord.
      1st verse - She is singing the melody, the main tune of the song. He's doing (quiet) harmonies.
      2nd verse - at :44 They are both singing melody (main tune) He's just in the male range, which is naturally lower. But it's the same notes.
      3rd verse - at 1:16 She is singing melody. He is doing high harmonies (which sound SO gorgeous!)
      chorus - 1:47 She's singing melody, he's doing harmonies
      4th verse - 2:17 She's singing melody, he's doing low harmonies
      chorus - 2:46 She's singing melody, he's doing low harmonies
      I'm sorry, that's probably a terrible explanation. It's the sort of thing that would be easier to demonstrate rather than explain in words. I'm sure if you search, there are videos that could do a much better job!

    • @melanyanguilar5620
      @melanyanguilar5620 4 года назад

      Yesica1993 oh ok! Thank you for the explanation that did make sense. It’s just that I always here people saying things like “that harmony though” and I never know exactly what they’re talking about😅 Thank you!

    • @Yesica1993
      @Yesica1993 4 года назад +1

      ​@@melanyanguilar5620
      I forgot to say, they're singing other notes within the same chord. (Not just random notes, obviously.)
      Glad it was somewhat helpful. Like I said, I'm sure there are much better explanations out there!
      If you listen to the Beatles, the Eagles, other bands, you can hear it. That's how I learned when I was growing up. Other than basic voice lessons, I have no musical training. Take care.

  • @Yesica1993
    @Yesica1993 5 лет назад +8

    This is one of my favorite songs. I always thought it was a sweet, joyful song. In the past few years, I've done a lot of childcare and used it for lullabies. One of my most precious memories was singing it to one of my boys and him joining in as he was drifting off to sleep.
    But I had only ever heard the first verse. I didn't even know there was more. Somewhere along the line I heard the 2nd verse and it totally changed the meaning, the feel of it. It became almost hard to sing for lullabies, as now it no longer was happy to me. Now with these other verses, that's even more the case.
    None of this is negative on you both! This was absolutely beautiful & I will listen to it often. It's just interesting how a song I thought I knew most of my life turned out to be quite different than what I thought it was.

    • @haleyklinkhammer
      @haleyklinkhammer  5 лет назад +1

      I'm so happy you enjoyed our cover! I always only knew the first verse as well! I was surprised to hear the rest of the verses. They definitely give it a new meaning. I think it's still a cool song and I still love that first verse as a lullaby 😊

    • @melmel1071
      @melmel1071 5 лет назад +1

    Dear, dear Haley: I forwarded this to a friend of mine who is a retired music director and program director in the radio biz. He _rarely_ comments on any music that I send him. He's heard it all. He's a bit jaded, I'm afraid. But, in your case, here's what he said, " It is a very beautiful rendition of an old favorite ditty. The slow tempo makes it sound sad with a touch of longing instead of a celebration." That may not seem like much, but from him, it's high praise indeed. You impressed the heck out of an old music biz pro. And, you impressed the heck out me, too. I'm now checking around and bookmarking everything I can find from you. Keep up the great work, Kiddo! We're with you! JT

There are some heart touching comments for which you have not responded, however you have responded to some tiny comments, it would have been nice if you had acknowledged those comments that people wrote from the depths of their hearts facing some of the greatest trials of their lives like loosing their loved ones.
