Today, We held English discussion activity "Express Yourself in English !", heard, talked about and sang a song in English, which lead by Yuko-san, a Jazz singer.
All of you who participated, thank you.
Today's theme song was "It's Only a Paper Moon".
"It's Only a Paper Moon" is popular as a jazz standard number, but is old popular song published in 1933.
It was written originally for an unsuccessful Broadway play called "The Great Magoo", set in Coney Island.

There was a resurgence of interest in the song when the Paul Whiteman Orchestra's 1933 recording was used in the 1973 Oscar-winning film Paper Moon.
This song's lyrics is soooooo romantic !
And it used old fashioned words.
This time, our discussion also went to very deep.
Apart from that.
Do you have such an experience of "Love" that you were in the wrong place at the wrong time to hit a piano dropped from a 40th story window ?
