I've Been To Harlem

  • "I've Been to Harlem" is a terrific game and partner song (with "Dum Dum Diddle")
  • I have also seen the lyrics "drink what you want to drink" used instead of "drink all the brandy wine".
  • This song is useful for preparing and practising melodic elements low la and low so, or if you only use part of the song, you can also use the song to make conscious these elements.
