I have a multi-track app on this iPod. Not sure what kind of sound it'll put out, but I can give your bathroom idea a shot and send you a sample. : )

Cheers mate, glad I could help ya out. Haha, anything for that natural reverb since I can't yet afford to get the professional one. I will though. :)

I was offering guitar tracks if you want. : )


Oh my god, really?! I really don't know a lot of people that could do that. I love acoustic-based stuff, so anything you have is fine. :)

I need your help Audrey.

I found Kereoke songs on YouTube, that I would like to sing,

but I dont know how to sing along with them, and record it,

on my computer.

Will you please, teach me?flowerforyou


Hey yeah, I'm really ghetto with my stuff. I just do a search on YT and sing off of those and tape it off my phonecam and transfer the mp3s to a video and make it with a pic or whatever.

You got a webcam right? Well I do but mine really horrible, one of these days I'm getting a proper mic for all this recording, hearing it back REALLY hurts my ears. I'd use your cam for the recording part, I think it should be fine.

Yeah, find a really nice sounding instrumental. Sometimes karaoke versions have the backup singers and that throws me off a lot. But once you find a really good video, place it in the background, as far as volume goes, I'm not really an expert on that since I'm relying on the music to play well and not tile or skip, as in outside noise. Make sure your cam is set to pick up everything. I made the mistake of setting my cam the other way now my voice doesn't pick up, my speaking one. So make sure things are set before recording. The mic should pic up all the sounds that way. bigsmile

They are good fillers but on most karaoke it sounds so off key and throws me off. But they can be alright especially in sounds that require them.

You can't, I can't

Woe, the caged bird screams
She dies, but doesn't break her wings
Inside she reaches, tries to makes sense
And runs, she pulls forward, the fog is dense

To dig out of the grave, her personal lie
It happened again, more feelings just die
To the soul that is squeezed, what is left? She speaks this
Can't know it, eyes opened through the kiss

Its poisen that freezes, its pain that pleases
Through it all, she stands, not sure of tomorrow
But in that minute, drenched in her biting sorrow
The sweet sounds of life, couldn't she for a moment only borrow?

No, she says, and speaks softly, slowly
A pattern that dances when she is awake
But only fate tells her to never forsake
The slow carass of the day, careless and lonely

The lifeline slipping down her cheeks, hard to see
She covers those feelings, trying to just be
In crowded room, she screams in her mind
Watches the smiles, laughs the cruel depts of time

And then she lays down, drained, stoic and scared
How much can one soul truly bare?
The harsh lights, they stare
Not at her but the numbness that used to be
Pushes herself off, once again, the mirror shows...she can't be me

Euphoria

He makes me think
He makes me sing
A writer could never dream so sweet
Desperate sounds of fate

Come over me, you don't see it
Don't feel it
The journey is breathing,
Sight is knowing

If dreams came true
In my life would be new
If I believed myself more
Then my heart could finally soar

Streams of you seep through these words, so carefully
So I'm using these dreams to carry my hopes fluidly
Its not something you believe in
That doesn't matter, reaching outside... I'm going to win

No more argument, just peace
My faith stabs everything, puts my soul at ease
To know you, honor is gracious
I smile when I sleep, feeling your kiss

(inspired by Leigh, nicked the title, thanks! flowerforyou )

Weigh Less

If I looked a certain way
You wouldn't look away
You couldn't ignore what I say
I wouldn't hate the day

This I know, as life passes I grow
But you stay the same, still hating my name
Still used to the same things
As your life turns to constant shame

Beauty is subjective
But this you don't believe
Hair of sunshine... of gold,
This is who you wish to hold

I used to cry at night so much
Someone like me, you could never touch
But time she knows me well
All my secrets, to you I won't tell

Dreaming of you disappears, crazy
Peaceful thoughts come back, not so hazy
Starting to return to normal, this is all I wanted
But you always come back, doesn't matter what I said

One day, I won't be there
One you gave away will be the day you start to care

Hmm, powerful. I felt like I was pulled along the story, then backed up, then in again. What a roller coaster that was. You have a great narrative.

"She'll forget me just as easily as she loved me."

Gaaaah, stop it, too real for me. Wonderful, I love it Kevin. A calming and serene tone, like ripples flowing through the piece.

Hey, bumping this because I may do something different with my art.

I'm gonna maybe, possibly post recordings of my poetry. Feel free to comment or whatever. I really don't mind.

I haven't yet decided when I'm going to do it as it's new for me so I may just continue with my poetry for now until I do some recordings.

The youtube links no longer work as I deleted them.
