Default I Can See Clearly Now Duet (Johnny Nash)

"I Can See Clearly Now" was written by Johnny Nash in 1972, and Johnny Nash made a very successful recording of it.

I've done things a little differently with this score. The vocal part in the sheet music has a lot of white notes (half-notes, whole notes), which Johnny Nash liberally yields to the reggae background. How could I resist trying the same ploy, even though this score has only two voices. So, where the open spaces would be, I've fashioned part of the reggae sounds to fill in the gaps. Hopefully, the end result makes it sound more like the pop recording.

If you would like to see the lyrics or the chords, you can use Composer commands to display them: for lyrics use qsl; for chords use qscn.
