Third single from Cherryland – a Dark Cherry lofi cover compilation.
Stray Cats’ Waltz is a song that was performed many times in 2010.
What can I say about this song. I have so much. As for the title, it was the actual working title of the song (later known as ‘Holdkeringő’ which stands for Moon Waltz in Hungarian).
Kyoki, the original author gave it and I liked this title so much to use it while working on the cover.
The lyrics where written by me. It is vaguely about Romeo and Juliet of Shakespeare. On top of that I even sing some words in archaic way to make it sound old as a song.
This song was recorded in studio and was released on our second studio single as a B-side song. We performed it in several towns and on several gigs despite its classical vibe.
Fun fact maybe that the drums are mixing rhythm at the end between 3/4 and 4/4 if I recall it well. It took weeks for Cay to practice so that he can play the changes while listening to the 4/4 metronome that helps him keeping the tempo.
