I've already heard it before, but I still like it. Does that count?

Wow. Absolutely gorgeous! Lovley orchestration, and her singing is at its most dreamlike. This is one of her best songs. Thank you!

Do you still have one more Japanese Longet song? I would love to hear it :)

Also, are any of Andy and Claudine's duets available? The "My Favorite Things" video you posted on YouTube is really wonderful, and it makes me wish they did an entire album together.

Best,
Dylan

I've downloaded it again to show willing (and I don't know where I put it!) but I'd kill to hear the other Claudine Japanese song... thanks!

The song is a traditional Japanese lullaby. "Komoriuta" means "lullaby" in Japanese. Claudine is able to sing it so well because her French vowels sound similar to the Japanese pronunciation. But even better than the pronunciation is her sincerity. I think her conviction really comes across well. Thanks for posting this on the Internet.
