4:44 (this version includes an
instrumental section) Song
style/genre:
Up tempo, jazzy comic song Key(s):
D minor to A major Note
range (Low/High):
A below middle C to D an octave above middle C About
the song:
This swing-beat, jazzy piece is my version of the Cinderella story, in which you find out what kind of advice a very modern, keep it real Fairy Godmother would give to poor Cindy — the title says it all. The song should resonate with many in your audience. There’s an inside joke here: my father, Jerry Livingston, wrote the music for Disney’s CINDERELLA. Gender
point of view:
The
Fairy Godmother character can be sung by a
man or woman, I would say. After all, the
message of the song is to break out of
those little boxes. Awards: Second
place in the "Jazz" category of the
8th Billboard Song Contest (1998)
