    We were supposed to play this for the swing dance my senior year but covid canceled the entire last semester. Kinda makes me sad listening to it now but maybe one day I'll get the chance to play it again.

    • @23billiejean1
      @23billiejean1 5 ปีที่แล้ว +20

      It’s the same arrangement, but a lot of bands like to alter the parts just slightly if they think it would be better. If you notice, it’s really only towards the end where the slight alterations come in, so these are definitely the original parts.

    • @flare2000x
      @flare2000x 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      My band is playing what sounds like the recording version of this tune, the arrangement is printed in a different font style and is slightly different in some parts. There must be two different publishers or something and one got a different iteration of the arrangement.

    The moon is the same moon above you
    Aglow with its cool evening light
    But shining at night, in Tunisia
    Never does it shine so bright
    The stars are aglow in the heavens
    But only the wise understand
    That shining at night in Tunisia
    They guide you through the desert sand
    Words fail, to tell a tale
    Too exotic to be told
    Each night's a deeper night
    In a world, ages old
    The cares of the day seem to vanish
    The ending of day brings release
    Each wonderful night in Tunisia
    Where the nights are filled with peace
