Lyric

A few of my song lyrics new and old have been put into songlist, the first new additions for over a year.

Noise

I sang my (still tentatively-titled after all these years) song Grasping At, which sounds nothing like _Quinn originally imagined it. It's not my best singing form (I'm shaky, and, I think, the slightest bit congested), but I'm pretty sure it's a significant improvement over the last time I recorded it.

Back when I posted the last two, I thought that I might make it a regular weekly ritual to record and post one of my songs, but immediately upon thinking that I got a cold.

The new Iron and Wine song excites me.

I agree; that is a better recording. Bravo! I also think it's fun that it's in a slightly higher key than when you sang it before. ^^

Sooo. It's not on the computer I'm on right now, but I remember noting that you augmented still further on the second verse. By which I mean, you started a little higher. Was that intentional?

Oh, also, I have to say I prefer the way you did the very last line before, leaving it kinda high and wistful. Any remarks?

Hee hee, I feel like a TV reporter or something. So, one last question: are these ooos canonical? (They're also in a slightly different key from everything else, and uncertain-sounding.)

Your voice continues to be really cool. ^^

Oh, not the end! You sang some of the words differently than they're written.

Now, it is the end. I like that Iron and Wine song, too. =)

I think you know this, but that sunset.txt is one of my favorites of all the things you've written. (It pulls from me the phrase "I want it," though I'm not sure what I would mean if I said that. It's just very, very beautiful.)
