Singing Tonight.. Singing Something Creepy.

Yooo!!!

Tonight is group performance class - seems like no biggie but the setting in which you sing is pretty intimidating.  The class of about ~20 or o people all sit on the floor in front you where you're standing at the mic stand and just.. singing.. out loud.. to them - as if it's show and tell and they're all kickin it looking up and watching.. like Reading Time in school.  EEEEEEEEEEEK!

I'm singing a song I've loved for what seems like forever.. nearly 10 years.

It's called Addicted, by my one and only - the fabulous Miss Kelly Clarkson.  Hopefully I do her justice.

Am I nervous? Uh, Yeah. 

However, I'm going to do what my voice coach has been telling me : Visualize myself absolutely rocking it in front of the crowd and hitting every note impeccably. We'll see if it works!

I'm hoping it also helps that I'm doing a song that I absolutely LOVE - it's super creepy and awesome. The idea is that I get into character and have a ton of fun with - we'll see if I can pull through.

The hope is NOT to choke! Will record it and review with my coach to see if it's good enough to post.

OH! And by the way - apparently my ghetto-ass approach to recording myself the other day compleeeeeeeeeeetely changed how I really sound (I thought it was must me)! But my voice coach pointed it out that my engineering really skewed my sound, it made me sound REALLY tinny - which many people confuse as NASALLY-  of which I don't normally sound like. 

I asked him if I should take it down and he said no - leave it up.  But MUCH better videos should be posted soon :)

Stand by!

Wish me luck, guys!!!
