Hi Pat,Sorry I don't have the link but if you go back to yours and type in Ray Charles What a wonderful World Nature the video should come up. I hope. I couldn't get it to post.I made a video (yes it was a while ago!) for my Dad to that song, it started with his childhood and ended with him holding his grandkids. He cried. sniff sniff. I love Ray Charles' music. I only have one CD. I need to get more.
I did listen to Elephant Walk, its a classic. Although I admit I didn't know it by name. I also listened to your link, a beautiful song, but your saying that wasn't Ray Charles. I'm an airhead, I'll go back and listen to the Ray Charles version.
This is getting embarressing, I need to get one of these kids to show me how to paste a link! I think the problem was that I wasn't registered. Next time!! If you don't easily find that video let me know, its too beautiful to miss!!
Thanks for the visit!~Jade
