Dream a Little Dream of Me (feat. DJ Fancy Pants)

Early in our dating, my wife encouraged me to learn this song so we could play it together. We only performed for ourselves, in dorms or occasionally with friends, but it's still an important song to us. This cover is based on the original arrangement, which just entered the public domain this year.

For this vocal performance, my wife is using the stage name DJ Fancy Pants.

Did not know this song has hit the public domain.

Super cool arrangement and great singing.

On the arrangement it might have been nice to layer an acoustic into the rhythm guitar as it gives a bit of percussion on a drumless track. Other than that good stuff.

I also didn't know this had entered the public domain.  Your wife has a good voice.  A nice rendition.  Arrangement sounds good to me.  Maaaaaybe I wouldn't have minded some extra element coming in on the last verse like another guitar or some bongos or something, but it sounds good as is.  It sounds like you kept the instrumentation fairly true to what would have been in use at the time, which is cool, but if you were breaking that rule some smooth synth tones or string sounds could be a nice addition, too.
