Eliane Elias to Peter Erskine:
"You Americans don't know how to swing samba; you all sound like TI-KA TI-KA TI-KA TI-KA."
I smirked and said, "Well then, how should it sound?"
She sang, "DO-goosh-ga, DO-goosh-ga, DO-goosh-ga, DO-goosh-ga."

I know you want to get into some kind of thing but I'm not playing. Repeating your ideas again and again only fixes them more and more solidly in your own mind, which is a shame if they're not accurate in the first place.
And ragman not only thinks you can't explain it but you can't methodically learn any more than you have naturally.
This is the last time I'm doing this correction stuff because it's brain-numbingly tedious. And I've got some playing to do!
