From: In a Sentimental Mood ; Year: 1989; Genre: Swing/Big Band Jazz Had this song on my mind since yesterday; quite a catchy and upbeat track to say the least. This one is a standard from during the height of The War, originally written by Harold Arlen and Johnny Mercer. From wot I understand the title and main idea of the song was borrowed from a sermon by a popular preacher at the time, Father Divine , which translated very well into an upbeat song. Many have recorded versions of this popular standard over the years, I almost went for a few others, but I knew Dr. John's really well, and I am a fan of his work, so I chose his rendition. Hear Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate the Positive on YouTube. My song pick 1 year ago today: Herman's Hermits - End of the World My song pick 2 years ago today: Alice in Chains - The One You Know My song pick 3 years ago today: Yes - Going for the One My song pick 4 years ago today: Dayton Sidewinders - Phoenix ...
Glad you like it William!
