A note-for-note transcription of the first track on Tony Hadley's album Passing Strangers. The mood and sentiment of the lyrics hark back to an earlier era, but avoid the politically incorrect overtones of other songs from the same period such as 'Girl Talk'. A brisk jazz waltz, this chart features a great piano part which is a fully notated transcription of what is played on the album track. The trombones supply the rhythmic thrust of the arrangement by playing syncopated chords against the walking bass part. Saxes back up the harmony by playing a tastefully adapted psuedo-string backdrop at times, while the whole band is involved in the instrumental interlude in the middle section of the chart and the exciting ending. Colourful chord changes and an up-beat positive feel make this an interesting chart to perform for singer and band members alike. We were amused to see that one line of the lyrics reproduced in the CD booklet read, 'I like to rejoice' instead of 'I like to read Joyce'! Arranged for 5444 big band, complete with score and parts.

I like to feel fancy free, I like to live young,
I like the old merry-go-round.
I like to play lover but don't like to get stung,
I like my two feet on the ground.
I may date a girl lightly and kiss her politely,
But will she get under my skin?
Well, My friends, it all depends on the mood I'm In.
I like to hear opera or I like to read Joyce,
I'm not the predictable kind.
Whatever the option is, whatever the choice,
I like to make up my own mind.
If the choice were to break up or kiss her and make up,
I'll try not to lead with my chin.
But, my friends, it all depends on the mood I'm in.
I may change, who can tell? I may suffer the pangs of remorse.
I may change 'neath the spell of that old irresistible force.
But I'm goin' the route single, oh don't look to find me
caught up in that marital spin.
Yet one day I may sight one who looks like the right one,
Walks down the aisle with chagrin.
You see, my friends, it all depends on the mood I'm in.
But I'm goin' the route single, oh don't look to find me
caught up in that marital spin.
Yet one day I may sight one who looks like the right one,
Walks down the aisle with chagrin.
You see, my dears, believe it friends,
It all depends on the mood I'm in.
