Anita Cracauer. Described as "Bayou soul," Louisiana blues crooner Marc Broussard's hit song is an ode to the music of the South.

It can be a great contrast to a more high-energy pop opener. It features a soloist in the first verse and chorus, and a higher solo singing lead over the final chorus. It's also a really sweet guitar feature. 11402579E SATB ePrint. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .ME 3.00 11402578E SAB ePrint. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .ME 3.00 11402580E TTB ePrint . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .ME 3.00 I'm a Star!—Scott Alan/arr.
