Eric Gwin presents...Songs from the Vault Lyrics |
Kum Bay Yah
Traditional, Arranged by John Green. Additional Arrangement by Jon Owen, Jennifer Puryear, Rob Williams, Johnny Brown, Mitchell Johnston, and Eric Gwin.
The Story Behind the Song
This is one of those songs that
everybody knows. I remember singing this song as a kid around a campfire
somewhere. On a Q trip in 1994, we heard AVB do a version of this song that blew
us away. Their arrangement was really the basis for this version, but we, of
course, added our own touch to it. Released as the B-side for our “How Could
You Say No?” single, this song has been out of circulation for some time.
I’m glad that I’m finally able to release it here.
