Farrell's tune entitled "Tempi."

He wrote this for his wife from, I think she's from Johannesburg.

(Wendell scatting) You enjoying the sound for the night?

How about a round of applause?

(audience applauding) Keep the spirit up.

You gotta keep the spirit flowing, flowing.

That's what Farrell was all about.

Farrell, the chosen one.
