   Hello,   
      
   "What I do" got 7/10 at first listening, now it's  9/10 ! !   
   No other track will get 9/10, so to me it's the best track of the CD.   
      
   This song may be called "quiet" ; but among all quiet songs, it is among the   
   best I ever heard.   
      
   A very nice, pure Rhodes piano,  is omni-present in this track ; it's almost   
   an ode to the pure Rhodes.   
      
   The harmonica solo has already been discussed in this newsgroup ; indeed it   
   is very fine.   
      
   The backing vocals - quite jazzy at some moments -  , together with some   
   harmonica soloing make a wonderful apotheosis.  And this time, the backing   
   vocals are done by sEveral people, including Caroline Leonhart.   
      
   (The only somewhat strange thing is the chord just after aDORE at "she's the   
   one you aDORE".)   
      
   Any comments ?
