Makaton - Love My Life - Singing Hands

This song is one of our favourite tracks from our SINGING HANDS GOES POP DVD. It's a cover of Robbie Williams's LOVE MY LIFE and the lyrics are just perfect for our community. It's so uplifting and positive!

This track appears on our Pop DVD which we were able to make due to the amazing support of our crowd-funding Pledgers. All of the people you see in the studio booked a 'Studio/choir Pledge' and got to spend the day with us at the Lyric Hammersmith recording the harmonies and vocals for this track. Our Music producer James Hawkins music conducted, created and mastered the whole track. Enjoy!

SIGN TRANSCRIPTION:
Here's a list of the signs used in the song - but you can simplify or remove signs from lines to make it easier if necessary. There's one line 'God knows I've made a few' with reference to making mistakes. Here we've sign MANY despite saying FEW as the meaning of the line refers to making many mistakes. So don't worry - this wasn't because we forgot the sign for FEW :) Similarly, we sign HAVE instead of TAKE where the implication is how we want to have the sadness rather than you. In signed songs, whereever possible, it's best to sign the meaning of the line and NOT just a literal translation of the words. However, the rest of the song is pretty self-explanatory!

With thanks to the Makaton Charity Senior Tutor Mandy Buddle for all translation support.
