Can You Feel the Sunshine? from Sonic R - Up Tempo Big Band Version (The 8-Bit Big Band)

Joel Waggoner is featured in this up-tempo Swing/Broadway opening number inspired arrangement of "Can You Feel the Sunshine?" from Sonic R. for the Sega Saturn (1997). Originally a more electronic music/house inspired track, the lyrics and chord changes to me always felt like they would be right at home in a Judy Garland/Frank Sinatra inspired setting as the opening for some kind of mid-century variety show. Hope you enjoy!!
