This is a simple piece to both play and sing but excellent for both. My signing students find this an easy song to sing due to the lack of interval jumps and the intonation accuracy is easier due to it not being far off chromatic note progression. This is an excellent song to both sing and play and is well laid out without too many pages to have to fiddle with. Chords change just before page turns which is a tad irritating but no biggy.

Comparing the sheet music to the original song, the notes were basically spot-on. It sounds very nice when paired with voice as well, not just as a simple accompaniment. Its not too difficult, beginners and intermediates could easily play it, I believe. Id definitely recommend it :)
