Valentine - Kina Grannis (Official Music Video)

Happy Valentines day everyone! :)

Christmas Is All In The Heart - Steven Curtis Chapman

This is one of my favorite Christmas songs (by one of my favorite singers!) and I thought the part about it not being about the snow that may or may not fall was fitting for this snow-less Christmas. ;)

Bruno Mars

Some pop music with lots of bells and whistles (such as when it's obvious the person's voice has been run through auto-tuning and other electric stuff) can be fine and even enjoyable to listen to. I would call it an art form, really. Other times, however, you may wish you could hear pop music being sung by people who actually can sing. Or, you may be listening to the radio, and suddenly you hear someone singing, and you think, "Hey! They're actually good, and it doesn't sound like they had to do tons of stuff to make the singing enjoyable to listen to!" If you're really wishing you could find music like this, however, I would recommend Bruno Mars. Bruno Mars isn't totally new, but he's also a sort of recent sensation in the pop music world. Surprisingly, he doesn't seem to be as famous as maybe he should be. In an industry of many artists and songs that have obviously been tampered with to make them worth listening to, Bruno Mars seems to need very little help. He is a very good singer, with a nice range, of fairly low to pleasantly high. You don't hear many men pop singers who 1) sing high or (2 sing high well, but Bruno Mars can do both. He has very good technique and is obviously a skilled and gifted singer. I really recommend giving his songs a try.

Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again

Last December, we made a video of me singing one of my favorite songs, "Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again". The video quality is not great, (ha ha, the sound quality's not optimum, either) so here is just the audio. My mom's accompanying me, and my brother took the recording. Like I said, the sound quality's not great, so make sure your volume isn't turned up too loud. :) Anyway, hope you like it!!! :)

time to catch up!

Hello to my loyal readers!
So, I haven't talked about much in a while! :) Last post was about the snow...but you all might be wondering what's been going on w/ me. Well...I've been doing school (I'm in 11th Grade and am pretty much halfway or more through it, as I'll be finishing for summer break in May).
This coming Monday my mom and I should be starting Festival Chorus rehearsal (yes, it's that time again! :)
And speaking of music, my mom is helping me work on a new song: Time To Say Goodbye (look it up on youtube or something, it's really cool!)
I'll be doing the SAT at some point this year, after I finish Algebra 2. (won't that be a happy day?? ;) ha ha it will be, sort of!) :D
Anyway, my continuing campaign for more people to join my blog and my website (link is to the left side).......there are currently five members of the blog, and three members of the website....and I'm one of that five and one of that three! We'd love more people to join in on the FUN!!!! :)
btw, i now have a couple forums up on A Little Piece of Middle-Earth!
