Somewhere ... beyond the sea

Post by Andreas the Wise »

Kildare .... beyond the blue
(that´s Shire Sea to you)
Across the bay from Shirekeep
Kildare´s pretty neat ... for a Duchy

Kildare ... with generals true
Coups far apart and few
Milit´ry leaders good peace or war
Life´s never a bore ... in that Duchy

Kildare ... with history fine
Reveres the written line
Recording everything to know
From old Apollo .. b´fore the Duchy

Kildare ... full of arcane
Magic bizarre and plain
Envisioninings, Dryads, and Deities
Time trav'ling squidies ... in that Duchy

To the tune of Frank Sinatra's 'Somewhere beyond the Sea"

Came to me rather spontaneously, so I thought I'd share it. If its popular I may record it (though I'm not happy with the magic verse ...)

I've recorded this. It came out at a tolerable standard. I'd love to record it with backing music, but after about an hour searching on you tube I can't find any that fits my four conditions of:
No existing lyrics
Reasonable recording quality
Has music for four verses
Has standard rhythm.

Yes, ofcourse! But forgot to react...
You did a good job. I hope you will sing more for us. Can I use it for a little video about Kildare if I have to make one?
It would even be better with the music on the background. If you sang it on the same tempo and if you deliver me the music, I can do them together.
