I feel like I need music in there though. My home bathroom isn't as good. Acapella is hard singin, very hard without some sort of backing. I need a dude to back me. Or anyone, chicks with guitars kill it too. Any takers? Anyone here can sight read or play by ear on the guitar? Just curious, will give credit to you personally and will love you forever. :heart: :heart: smooched

Thanks! bigsmile

Beautiful as always. The emotion at the end was really powerful. Love the image you chose as well.

Not Good Enough

For the people who care and the ones who don't its over
Moreover
Everything I've worked for is a lie
The ones that matter just falter and die
If I'm discouraged its because of you
Because what you say, what you believe to be true
Flows of pictures glide upon open nights
Killing dreams, falling with hordes of colored sights
Its done! It's over! I say it is because I know society
I believe love exists in a world of yes but not the perfect road seen clearly
If only I could be sure of the life I lead
If only passion was respected neither want rather need
Because deep inside myself I see amazing things, I fell
But I fell with a strong tumble....really no one can tell
I'm cute, I say to myself everyday
It's the surprise of the words which hit me steadfastly
Taking my life comes from the pain the protrudes through my fakeness
I saw it, you see it too, you see it spread on my kiss
I don't think I just do
I only believe what I feel is worthy of being new
Like my faith wrapped with strangled voices
Who really knows who I am, I want to so much, it doesn't make a difference in my choices
It's passive to speak so weakly when the world sees this
The world sees this, it's a goodbye, yeah that's right, my life isn't the fulfilled bliss
It's you who suffer, you who judge not me
You look like you do and still don't feel, you swear on your worn knee
You can't know good deeds, you don't fathom the lies from the real
I really don't care if no one sees this, its not like I meant something to any of you, wasn't that the deal?

(sidenote: I wrote this many years ago, IMO it needs tweaking, always wanted to turn it into a song)

I'm not a fan of that sort of music, but the important thing is that you were in tune. :smile: You need a better microphone because the one you're using starts gaining when you hit high notes. Adding some reverb (room size) would improve the quality as well. (pro signers do this all the time) drinker

My Funny Valentine - Chet Baker

I recorded this one yesterday but posting today. That bathroom was too good to me. AWEsome reverb.

The quality of this recording is better than the other one, but there's still parts that your mic over-gains on (the forte notes). I noticed some out of tune notes there too. You should try singing scales and arpeggios to warm up and let your voice open up more-like it does on most of the track. You should try standing a bit further from the mic(especially in the bathroom) or get a condenser/EQ. I suspect this sounds really good live. flowerforyou :banana:

If you come over to my place, I'll let you use my mighty microphone and multitrack software. :wink:

I'll be your accompanist and transcriptionist. You know the instruments I play, дорогая. Since you already love me, it won't be such a stretch to love me forever. :wink: :heart:

Yeah, I actually do like "End of Stick", it carries a strong message with it about violence against woman.

I wanted to have MY video carry a message, instead of just me, and my booty. Theres already tons of videos like that out there. I wanted mine to be different.
