@TheHyruleJediYT

Oh bring us the saxophone, oh bring us the saxophone, oh bring us the saxophone and weโ€™ll play a solo

@sandeegrey5977

What saxaphone is this who laid to rest,
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with jazz tunes so sweet,
While children who watch are squirming?

@MarshawnEmpire

So real

I really love this channel. There is nobody else who does anything close to what SMB does consistently.

@Multitasker3

This was great! Could you do the jazz/blues version of O Christmas Tree like in Charlie Brownโ€™s Christmas? It doesnโ€™t have to be the same just something like it. Thanks
