for SATB and piano Don Michael Dicie has created a straightforward, unflashy but beautiful arrangement of Lowry's famous 'How can I keep from singing?'. Dicie departs from his typical harmonic style of major and minor seventh chords for a more tertial setting. The variety of textures and its simplicity and accessibility make a lovely effect. The women sing the first verse; men, the second; both, a cappella for the third; and they finish together with piano.

Best day of my life is the matching artist approved songbook to Tom Odell's fifth studio album, released 28th October 2022. The album is intentionally minimalistic, with just Tom's voice and piano. He says: "One year ago, almost exactly to the day, I set myself the challenge to write and record an entire album using only my voice and my piano with absolutely nothing else. I found myself digging deeper than I ever have before both with my words and piano playing. I am so proud of the way this record has turned out and I really cannot wait for you all to hear it."

In die motto van hierdie reeks liedtekste vra Amanda Strydom: “Moet ek skryf oor die liefde / Moet ek skryf oor politiek / Oor die menslike kondisie / Oor ons blou planeet se siek?”
