One Note Melody song challenge. Apologies to Neil Diamond ("Song Sung Blue") and to the ghost of Tom Jobim ("One Note Samba"). Also, a personal "one minute challenge."
Samba Sung Blue (February 19, 2022). Dm E7 Am
[Riff: Am - Em - B7 - Am]
Samba, samba, samba sung blue…One note samba, I’m without you
Samba, samba, samba sung loud…blue note samba, drunk in the crowd
One note samba, samba sung low…blue note samba, why did you go?
Samba, samba, samba no more….blue note samba, hurt to my core
Samba, samba, samba sung blue….One note samba, I’m without you

Nice apropos rhythmic feel for this short tune. Well conceived.

Agree with the comments below, you have managed to capture a melancholy atmosphere with the repetition and minimalist words. Good stuff and thanks for posting

Sometimes all you need is a a few words to create a mood, which you do here. There is longing, there is pain, there is sadness.
