Re: When Johnny Comes Marching Home Again
Ralph,
I've heard this in so many arrangements over the years that I thought surely there was nothing more that could be done with it. It is a pleasure to be proved wrong. The song is fresh again. The pictures in the video all seem appropriate, which like the music neither over nor understate the sentiment of the anticipated celebration. The ending, too, is just a statement, but the change in tone serves as a reminder that it has all been about anticipation of celebrating Johnny's return.
The song lives again for me thanks to you, and thanks to Sherry for the video.
all best,
mgj
