Waltz Wrong With Me
Title says it all, the little woman asked me to do a waltz...she's as screwed up in the head about my playing as I am. And to make things worse, I tried. Anyways heres what I came up with today. Is it close? she hasn't heard it yet, so any tips will be appreciated.

You have the beat down nicely. That would be easy to waltz to though it is a rather untraditional choice of instruments. I like it . Well done.

That was very different Kenny an interesting choice of style whats next a polka , sure your waltz would make all the wall flowers get up an boogie , well maybe not boogie 
Well done

Took a different approach here Kenny, got the wife to give it a listen first, she liked it, said it sounded like a modern Waltz, she also said she would be flattered if I did something like this for her, thought I'd have a view from a female perspective so thumbs up on this one, affectionate thing to do as well Kenny

Good job Kenny. I would have liked to have heard the strings brought in a little earlier though, seems a bit of a waste to just have them for the last five or so seconds. Perhaps the melody could be developed a bit too. Then all you have to do is learn to dance.
