This is the last of the series for now. All songs that are in story format. A wide variety throughout the series, never more clear than on this volume. I'm sure you have some suggestions for future volumes. And I'm sure I missed one of your favorite story songs. Please leave them in the comments. I'm sure I will make more of these volumes in the future and I would love to hear your suggestions. There are some fun ones in this volume. One of my favorite story songs (and one of the ones I was first thinking of when I decided to make this compilation is Marlena Shaw's Yu-Ma/Go Away Little Boy. I love her voice on this track. One of my favorites of all time by her. When she changes her mind and her voice changes, It just gives me chills. And the story is great. I wish I was that irresistible. Unfortunately, I am no Cary Grant, no matter how much I wish I was.
