Such a wonderful celebration of music, life, and the quirks which make every day special. Jen was a charming and personable narrator, as well as an exceptional musician, who put you instantly at ease. She even got people up and dancing at one point! A really lovely evening.

Andy Hamill & A Mad Belgian's Song list

JAZZ:
Blue Moon
They can't take that away from me
Summertime
Do you know what it means?
Come rain or come shine
Days of Wine and Roses
All the things you are
It don't mean a thing
What is this thing called love?
Wrap your troubles in dreams
Caravan
Tea for two
Cheek to Cheek
Blue Bossa
Whisper not
Puttin' on the Ritz
Take the A train
Stella by starlight
Watermelon Man
Autumn Leaves
I'm putting all my eggs in one basket
Straighten up and fly right
Take five
Song for my father
I got rhythm
When you're smilling
My funny Valentine
Just friends
Straight no chaser
You don't know what love is
Sweet Georgia Brown
Cantaloup Island
Bautiful Love
I fall in love too easily
Someday my prince will come
I hear a rhapsody
How deep is the ocean?
When the saints go marching in
Recordame
Pourquoi Pas Fou?
I get a kick out of you
Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps
The shadow of your smile
It could happen to you
Time remembered
'Round midnight
Somewhere over the rainbow
There will never be another you
How about you?
In a sentimental mood
Blue Skies
My favourite things
Have you met Miss Jones?
On the sunny side of the street

All you need is love
For no one

Hit the road, Jack
I say a little prayer for you
I will survive
Imagine
The longest time

Stand by me
Tears in Heave
You're the sunshine of my live
Your song
Yesterday
