I'm in a bit of a sensitive mood today, so this week's classic tune is a tender ballad from the Weeping Willows. They didn't actually write the song, it's actually originally by Tom Paxton, but it was first made popular in Sweden by Fred Åkerström way back in 1972 with his Swedish language version "Jag ger dig min morgon". Quite possibly my most favorite love song ever - the lyrics are just so incredibly heartwarming. If my wife wasn't so cranky before she gets her coffee, I'd croon it to her all the time. Or maybe not. I highly doubt anyone wants to wake up to my shoddy singing voice. Anyhow, this version appears on the elusive Weeping Willows singles compilation from back in 2000, back when they were still a classic 50s rock/torch song band. I like the later-era modern rock stuff from "Into the light" on, but it's those first two albums ("Broken promise land" and "Endless night") that I treasure most.
On a side note: If anyone can find me a copy of that Ww singles collection, I'd really really appreciate it. Email me.
