Displaying all reviews (1)One of the first songs I learned to play on piano! I always loved this song and was very happy when I found it it was not too hard to play... this transcription is also quite accurate and sounds a lot like the CD.. minus the organs and the harps and all that.. haha.. good piece to sing to as well, recommended
