Romantic Valentine's Day love song that perhaps works best as an uptempo swinging thing. "Let's put some strings on it and see what happens!"
The #601 arrangement features two vocal parts, piano, bass, violins, cello and accurate guitar chord diagrams.
The quintuplet pattern piano part should be played in a relaxed fashion: The natural mild accent within a quintuplet is either a 3+2 feel, or 2+3 feel. But the computerized demo spits it out as five exact slices of the beat. Experiment and place the accent wherever it feels best to you.
[NOTE: There are several more arrangements of this song in the works.]

Retro romantic lounge rock Valentine's Day love song.
The #201 is basic sheet music, piano & vocals. Stripped down but still this arrangement has real atmosphere and is fun to play. Again, the quintuplet pattern on the computerized piano here is slightly stiff -- just play it like a human being and it'll work great.
Vocal part on this tune is an easy octave.
There are piano pedal notations throughout this score: It's an attempt to create a "melt" effect. Add according to taste.

This original Romantic Valentine's Day lounge pop love song can have many different arrangements, so many musical possibilities. Think of the sheet music as a blueprint. The songwriting provides the musical foundation and structure while the arrangement provides the trim and decoration. From a single song many sheet music creations can be built.
Also, my apologies, but ringtones are delayed until I can upgrade my recording gear.
