This is a cover I made of "Come Little Children" the song of Hogus Pocus movie. I had recorded it to make a youtube tribute, butas this song is not mine as a cover I only wanted to share it here for now. The soundtrack was composed by John Debney. Film music have always been my favourite genre, and I hold dearly some songs. This one was pretty magical. I dared to contact John Debney via facebook and he  replied to me with some praising words, I was so happy (as a  Henson's fan I have a weakness for Elmo in Grouchland also composed by him, though you will know his work  maybe through Cutthroat island original music score).

So you can imagine that as a fan he took the effort (<3) to reply to me. And I was so thrilled. 

 "I loved your rendition. It sounded great" John Debney

So here it is (just press play) with my deep admiration. So far only in the message board for the few of you that visit it :).

Original composition by John Debney from the soundtrack Hocus Pocus (1993)

This song is not on sale in any way, this is just a heartfelt rendition and tribute to the original composer which I have previously contacted for feedback.  I've only recorded this as a way to show my hammered dulcimer arrangement an instrument I'm learning and I think I'm getting better at. So said that I do not own this song neither it is sold in anyway, but only to show my admiration for the original composer (who I've contacted to show first) and my arrangement for hammered dulcimer (see picture below)

Credits: me (arrangement in this cover, vocals, hammered dulcimer, piano), Armen Vartanyan (violin), Svetlana Tovstukha (cello)

Con lo que siempre me ha hechizado esta melodia...cuando sonaba me sentia una cachorrita quieta,agudizando el oido,y dejaba que el cuerpo se deslizase en mi asiento,parpados entrecerrados,espiritu capturado.

De modo que escucharla de ti...magic.Es lo mejor que podia pasarle a esta cancion.Encaja a la perfeccion con la enigmatica neblina eterea que nace naturalmente de ti.

Gracias por compartirla,y felicidades por el reconocimiento ;) Siempre tuya,Tania

En sueños nada me impide llegar a la isla de San Borondón,La Encantada,trocito perdido de la Atlántida...si desapareces entre tu niebla despertaré.Mi espíritu galopa,sobre puentes de ramas,bajo un cielo de aguas nacientes,abrigada por el valor del viento

I love this song from Hocus Pocus but also the way you play it with the hammered dulcimer, because it makes it more...similar to celtic sounds which I'm so fond of. (soy Laura eh! Spanish_Rumple es mi nick, viene de Rumpleteazer, un personaje de Cats el musical)

Me encanta tu voz y la profundidad que le has dado con los efectos en la producción, muy bien procesada, queda muy profesional. La melodía me transporta a ese mundo mágico de la película.

Enhorabuena y gracias por agregarme a tu lista de amigos,  me encantaría una colaboración  contigo en alguno de mis temas Disney que estoy preparando (sin compromiso, solo si tras escucharlo te apetece).

I've always loved "Hocus Pocus" since I was very young.  And fall is not complete if I don't watch the movie at least a dozen times before and after Halloween lol To have you cover this song, means the world to me, truly.  )O(

Greetings from Los Angeles, California

I love the movie too, but this moment in the soundtrack is likely my favourite part of the movie. Thanks for your input :) and greetings back from Spain! :)
