First Video Post! Cover of Stars Die by Porcupine Tree

I promise I'll eventually get more creative with my post titles!

It seems fitting that the first thing you get to see me play is actually my warm-up song. I finally managed to do a run through that had very few mistakes, even though my face is a hot mess. This is what I would look like if you woke up beside me, that's right. Hair and all. Scary. I really should put on a better game face hey?
I also discovered that I make kind've weird faces while singing, including sticking out my lower jaw a bunch, and it does not need the help!

ANYWAYS. To the point, the song! I do a very basic version where there is only a three chord progression for the verses and the chorus is only a two chord progression with a tiny little pinky hammering on. REALLY basic. Which is why it's good for a warm up. The way I do it is less relaxed and low key than the original song, I tend to speed it up a bit, and put a bit more power behind it, because I am a she-hulk, and I like to smash, whether it comes to strumming, or using my vocals as a sonic BOOM. You'll see. Also, note, I need to mind my high notes, they're a bit sketchy.





Stars Die by Porcupine Tree

The moon shook, curled up like gentle fire,
The ocean glazed, and melted wire.
Voices buzzed, in spiral eyes,
stars dived in blinding skies.

Stars die,
Blinding Skies.

Tree cracked, and mountain cried,
Bridges broke, windows sighed.
Cells grew up, and rivers burst,
Sound obscured and sense reversed.

Stars die,
Blinding Skies.

Idle mind, and severed soul,
Silent nerves, and begging bowl.
Shallow haze, to blast away,
Hyper sleep to end the day.

Stars die,
Blinding Skies.
Stars die,
Blinding Skies.

Mandatory Introductory Post

Well good evening! I must say, funny running into you here... Okay no, I'm not going to do that silly type of introduction, where I pretend there's actually a person I'm talking to. I'm not that redonkulous.

Well I am, just not that sort of redonkulous.

So, a few things you should know, mayhaps:
This is me;

I am a silly little woman who's a Big Mama to this silly little boy.

I attempt to write music, and I butcher lyrics with my voice constantly, and that is what I hope to primarily be posting here. You'll probably hear that adorable little monster in the background, trying to sing along, because he has a voice and likes to use it too!

Oh, of course I have other little exploits.
I cook and bake, although I don't pretend to be fancy, because let's face it, that's just condescending. I make edible food that's mainly nutritious (although my son eats better than I do), but also delicious.

I do draw, and was in school for animation at one time, but I FAILED, which is why this blog isn't going to be about that either! Hah! I may randomly post drawings (and I do take requests), but only if people really want naked fat ladies all up in their faces!

You may find silly little things about my cute little baby boy here, although he's quickly becoming not so little, but don't worry, this isn't primarily a baby blog. However, if you've got beef with anything I post here that's not "on topic" well I'm sorry, but you can kiss my imaginarily tiny little big tush!

I am also of the nerd variety, wherein I watch (and enjoy) Star Trek, Doctor Who and other various sci-fi shows. I also play Dungeons and Dragons every other Sunday with a group that I have been playing with since my young year of 17. In which I do accents. Many of them. Quite amusingly badly.
SENTENCE FRAGMENTS!
I have them.

I'm a bit sporadic, but this will be a happy little eccentric place, where I will share my joy for life, because that's all there is as long as that's how you view it.
Joy in many forms, joy in the mistakes, joy in the successes, and joy in managing to get through a song with only going off key a few times! I can never manage to stick to just one, because I'm a bit of a random person, but I hope that will just add to the spontaneous fun!!

Taha for now!!
