Rubber Ducky (cover -- original by Jeff Moss, sung by Ernie)

...the bossa nova version

Simply slapped together, and originally meant to serve as the base/reference track for a collaboration with another two MeFites. (pssst, collaborators, if you still want to do this, or any other song, I'd still love to trade tracks!) I was encouraged to post this in its raw state by one of them.

I'm not using a pick anymore -- I've given it up! It started to feel like I was wearing a raincoat in the shower. So this was also an exercise for me in finger-picking. I sang the reference vocal track while thinking of Chet Baker; I pretended I had something very fragile inside my mouth.

One of my all time favourite songs of all time.

Em português:

O pato de borracha, você é esse. Você faz o banho de muito divertimento.

Jess, umbu, no rush. If either of you want to send me tracks for this or anything, I'm sure we'd all have fun building whatever.

Hah, originally, I'd suggested it be in Portuguese, hoping umbu would/could take on the task of translation. He replied that maybe it was best to keep it in English, heh.
