Thank you, JT, for your kind reaction! It was the first time I performed this song with violoncello accompaniment. The recording is bad, but I shared it nevertheless because of the beautiful cello arrangement.

I'm touched by songs like Old Friends and When I'm 64 written by Simon and McCartney when they were in their 20 s which have now come to fruition.
