When I'm Sixty Four
Tomorrow morning, at 4:30 am, will be my 64th birthday, so this is temporarily my song.
Many years ago I had "The Beatles Complete" music book, and played it then with all the twirls and doodads.
Spur of the moment, Tuesday night I downloaded the lyrics and chords, found a key I could use, and picked this out by ear.
I played it through twice Tuesday night, Once before leaving Wednesday for my gig.
So this is a VERY rough but live version of the Beatles, "When I'm 64"

Happy Birthday Jerry! 🎂
I haven't listened yet but will a bit later this evening. Blessings
Great job 👍.
Wish i could play an instrument lol. Is that a piano or keyboard?
It is a Yamaha YPG 535, 88 keys, non weighted Keyboard. It has all the band and drum tracks I need for most things.
I create or buy Midi files (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) which are computer files that tell the keyboard what drums, when to play strings, how fast/slow what key etc... All of which I can change, even on the fly.
That way, I can dial up a song, put start and Frank Sinatra (for instance)
and his band will come out the speakers, and I can either stand there and
Play along or, since I wear a wireless headset mic, I can walk around and
Sing.
I've been playing piano 53 yrs now.
Thanks @weirdheadaches, I wish it were smoother and I'd had practiced it more.
