Hate this Arrangement

First of all, the melody is the traditional one we usually hear when we think of this song. The arrangement is very "march-y"--it does have a military band type vibe going, and I think that is the intention since the song is about going off to war. I think the arrangement would work particularly well for male voices, or at least a good beefy contralto to give it a certain gravitas that my lighter soprano voice cant. So maybe it will work for you. I remember going back and forth on whether to get this song or not, but at the time I think the Singer Pro version was not available (or I didnt see it) because I would have gotten that instead.
