New Covers!!!

Well, I did a cover of Heroes and Thieves (messed up a bit at the end, and I don't know the bridge exactly). Um, also did a newer version of Twilight because I was able to rig my keyboard to my computer and can now make *slightly* better recordings. There is also a cover of a Damien Rice song called '9 Crimes' - Um, yeah, I tried; that song is really powerful when you hear him and Lisa sing it. I don't have strings or a guy to sing with! :)

I did these all today, and my I got nervous at times and my voice gets shaky, but whatever haha. I really dislike the "Just when I figured it ouuuut" part. It's really hard to make that sound good and form each note without sliding the wrong way.

Thanks, and I have written a couple songs in the past, but I don't usually. I haven't in over a year.

I don't really want to be a singer or anything in the public eye, no matter how narrow that audience may be. I sort of did when I was younger, but not now. My whole family thinks it's crazy that I can sing and never really do anything with it, but it's more like a hobby for myself, and I share it with you all because I know you are VC fans and appreciate her music and hearing people's renditions. I have thought of doing vocal guides for karaoke cds because then I could sing songs I like, make some money, and not be seen :)

I think they're great :)
+ I liked your Howie Day cover that is/was on your myspace better than the original.
You have a great voice.

Hehe thanks!! They deleted my myspace account for reasons unknown to me. It kinda upset me, but oh well. I think I have the Howie Day cover on an old computer in my basement still, though, so it's not completely lost :)

Are you sure you're not Vanessa in disguise? lol. You sound so much like her it's scary!

I'm just now listening to Twilight but as far as suggestions I'd say watch out for being under the pitch sometimes and don't be afraid to get loud! I bet you could really belt if you wanted to; don't shy away from dynamic contrast. That will really help with those pitchy problems you're talking about and it will make the performance more dramatic overall.

Oh wow, I really like this last song. I'm not familiar with it but I'm loving the inflection you're putting on the end of your phrases.

I don't know what you're doing for a career but I can def. see you being successful in the music world. Have you ever thought about getting a set list together and just gigging somewhere? Making a CD of covers?

You have a great ear for music. Great voice. Loved all of it.
