What Child is This?

There's a question we ask all the time: What?

It turns out that the title of this song, which is often what inspires you to listen to it, is a question. And it does have a song in it - sometimes my posts that have question titles don't have songs. (Just to let you know - I'm not going to share my opinions about song titles in this post. I already did that here, and here, and here, so you can just click those rather than waiting for me to repeat it.) 

You may feel like listening to songs, or reading books, or watching videos, that say, "How Do You Build a Luxury Home?" or "WHAT?! You Played That In Only One WEEK???" or "How Long Does Sunlight Take to Get Here?" 

Things that say "Architecture of Houses," or "Learning Giant Steps Fast" or "The Solar System", might not be as interesting. However, I'm currently staring at the second one - I'll explain in possibly a year when I can play Giant Steps for you. (It's a really really really hard song.)

Coming back to the point, I was talking about questions that get us interested. Here's some you might be asking.

How are you playing this song?

Unlike Angels We Have Heard on High, I didn't do the jazz thing on this one. It's the same way that you have probably heard it before. I thought it wouldn't really sound right jazzed up, but I should try it. However, because I'm the one playing the song, I got to make a few small changes.

How many more of these are you going to keep playing?

Over here, I'm going to have this song plus 2 more (because that will be the rest of the month). In January, I'll get back to my regular jazz stuff.

You can also jump over to my YouTube channel if you want, because I have even more songs there, and I will throughout the coming year.

How do you manage to post all these songs?

It doesn't really take that long. Sometimes I'll just go over to the piano and sit down for a few hours, and record a bunch of songs that I'm going to post that month. I can usually pull together some time to upload videos and get posts ready. 

It isn't really that much work considering that some people post every day!

Are you going to answer my other questions?

Of course! I'll be listening to anything you say to me, just like I'll be listening to songs. You can just throw something in the comment box and I'll be there to answer it.

So, what are you waiting for?
