| Comments: | I was asked to do a real-life wedding arrangement of "He'll Make Me Happy", Miss Piggy and Kermit's wedding song in the movie "The Muppets Take Manhattan". The problem was that the real-life preacher said only "holy" songs could be sung in his church. So I just changed a few lyrics, for example "Lord, make them happy". In addition, I bookended the tune with an Amen intro and an Amen tag. What you see/hear with this piece is the fusion of that intro and tag into one big, fat Amen - a God Bless Y'all kinda of creation. I just held my breath, hoping the preacher man never discovered the song was about a pig and frog getting married. As I understand, next summer, the US Supreme Court is to rule on the legality of that kind of thing. For fun, check out the Muppet wedding at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0ChbqaTIs8 This "tag" can be used with lots of existing church songs. Complete arrangement (normal and holy versions) available from David Lorenz. |
