People (4:25)

This Valentine’s Day I’d like to celebrate lovers with a song made famous by Barbra Streisand (Music – Jule Styne, Lyrics – Bob Merrill).  As these lyrics remind us:
 
“Lovers are very special people
They’re the luckiest people in the world
With one person, one very special person
A feeling deep in your soul
Says you were half, now you’re whole…”
 
So today I’m dedicating this beautiful song – and my rendition of Mark Hayes’ arrangement – to my wife, thoughts of whom inspire me every time I play it.  I’ve been shaping this interpretation mostly through headphones, so it’s also a little Valentine’s surprise for her. I hope you also enjoy it.
