Kevin Henry
"Next Year"
Album: East on Sunset
This is a great song, you can hear some of it from Friends,
episode 610 TOW The Routine when Joey (Matt LeBlanc)
kisses Jenine (Elle Macpherson)
Unfortunately the song is hard to find,
as iTunes doesn't carry it. Thankfully Kevin e-mailed me the song,
he's an great artist!
This song mixes Auld Lane Syne, and it's a great song to start the new year
too...Even if the New Year is several months away. Enjoy!
Tuning: Standard
