    Lovely! It reminds me of the Disney animated movies of my childhood.

    I began to wonder about the feline-osity of the player when his shadow had cat ears.

      Yes, and at the beginning where the cat’s eyes peeked out from his shadow.

    I love this and charming indeed! This is a promo video for a new recording released this month so you can certainly see his warmth, personality, sense of humour and creativity within it! Here is a the wiki link for Augustin Hadelich– interesting life thus far including an awful injury from a fire at his family’s home in Italy– and I vote men of cutetropolis calendar material for sure! Thank you Thérèse for sharing!

    I’m not sure how much rum I’ve had tonight but I can’t find my shirt and that says enough. Tomorrow’s probably going to suck, but in the mean time I have a message for you: you are all wonderful in your own unique way. You deserve to be happy. Don’t let the world get you down.

    Now have some American Music https://youtu.be/eYKbDH5qGJM

      I recommend Stillwrights Spiced Rum. But enough till just before you can’t find your shirt. I glad you are a happy drunk.
      -goes to lightly pat BFB on the shoulder, but refrains so as not to jostle the hangover-

      The video was a joy to watch. Thank you Mike and Thérèse B. I like that the es in your name make it look like a little face. 🙂

    The cityscape reminds me so much of Shinbone Alley, one of my favorite videos from the early days of HBO and Cinemax. It’s a musical based on don marquis archy and mehitabel and it was co-written by Mel Brooks. If that isn’t enough to pique your interest, mehitabel is voiced by Carol Channing!
