Or pain HA!

For some odd reason I said yes when someone asked me to sing at the school's winter talent show. Day of the show, I woke up not being able to talk much. I sounded like I was thisclose to losing my voice. Well as you'll see, and as I know my voice, I'll pull a Kelly Clarkson Dallas Cowboys halftime squeaking moment.

I was going to upload my video, but it's too big for YouTube. It's in QuickTime format - anyone know how to compress it?

I found some converter software to convert my original file to an .avi file. Then I had to use the "large file" uploader on youtube.

OI!

Who knew? I didn't.

First off - it is obvious how much the students appreciate you.

Secondly - you got some pipes.

The interlude was a bit uncomfortable - the rest was actually pretty good.

I am impressed.

Do more, I will listen.

How fun! Like Pea said, your students LURVE you! And that speaks volumes.

I blame the interlude on it being an 80s song. I'm always joking around about how if I sing anything from the 80s I need at least a guitarist around me so it isn't so uhhhh boring/uncomfortable/looooong.
