Ah, Benny Goodman! I'm in a homeschool jazz band, and I love this kind of music.

She left many of us behind. She left us heartbroken. And though we cry now there'll come a time when we'll laugh. Because we'll see her again someday. We'll be with her in heaven. And when we go to heaven she'll be there to greet us. She'll be there to say "Welcome home." -From a poem that SnC wrote about her grandmother

Ya, swing is pretty cool. I'm not that into it, but I like it now and then. I really like Louis Armstrong. He's not exactly swing though, is he?

you can learn a lot from job 38-42, being humble isn't the easiest but its worth it.

Swing is fun, and by far my favourite part of jazz. I think jazz should be played far more frequently on the radio.

I loved swing ever since the marching band! Our school did a swing theme. It was cool. I went out and bought the Swing Kids sound track. I loved it! I do not know many swing artists but, I really love swing.

That's a good song! But I hate playing on my tenor saxophone, because its just a pain to play.

I always find it so hard to believe that people stopped liking swing twice. Swing dancing is the only dancing I wish I new because swing music is amazing and it looks intensely fun. On another note I actually own a Benny Goodman record \:D/

I'm in an online jazz class and after learning about all the different styles of jazz, I think Swing is my favorite. I wish more people knew how to swing dance.

Yep. Using my signature for a shameless plug. But trust me. If I can be so arrogant, I think it'll be worth your time.
