I've been watching through The X Factor on YouTube. It's super addicting. The order the videos are posted in is really dumb though.

Agreed.

My Grandma loves it. She says I should audition, but I'm a little hesitant to...

I think it'd be a good experience. Unless you're not good under pressure...or you just suck at singing (such as me).

My friends and I are going to audition for one of those shows sometime, just for kicks. I think if you're okay with criticism, you should go for it. If you don't get on, you'll just be in the same place you were before.

Exactly. I think that, if I do enter, I'll be going mainly for criticism on my vocal performance, not to try and get on the show. And, if I do get on the show, that would be pretty cool.

Hope I'm listening to Stille Nacht right now. That's Silent Night in German. :D

message 1611: by Hyperion (new)

Hyperion | 14 comments Please listen to Metric Artificial Nocturne Love Thy Brother Remix. With good bass speakers or like beats or skullcandy that have great bass the song is bliss.

You want bass? Listen to Primus' songs.

Taylor Swift- Stay Stay Stay


message 1615: by Taylor (new)

Taylor  | 0 comments Owl City makes me feel nauseated for some reason. Just something about the beat makes me feel weird.

I like State of Grace, Stay Stay Stay, and Everything Has Changed.
(It fluctuates depending on my mood. xD)

I've only listened to it once, so I can't judge it yet, but it felt flat to me.

Eddie Redmayne - Empty Chairs At Empty Tables

Owwwwwww.


message 1633: by Taylor (new)

Taylor  | 0 comments @Lav

I just appreciate different musical elements of her songs than you do, perhaps.

@Maxy

LUVVVVV THAT SONG!


message 1634: by Elliott (new)

Elliott | 22634 comments Mod
With her, for me it's the lyrics.


message 1635: by Taylor (new)

Taylor  | 0 comments I'm that way with some of her songs. "Enchanted" has to be my favorite these days, lyrically. Ever since my best friend introduced it to me, it's had a lot of very personal meaning. And now, since our friendship currently hangs in the balance, it has become even more meaningful.


message 1636: by [deleted user] (new)

Me too, Taylor. Eddie Redmayne does a fabulous job. The way he almost whimpers "and I can hear them now" is, I have to say, even more touching than Michael Ball belting it.

and it's throwing me off because the version on youtube is in the original key which i love but i also love the key eddie sings in during the movie whaaat


message 1637: by Taylor (new)

Taylor  | 0 comments Haven't heard the original version. But if it's in a different key that would drive me insane.


message 1638: by [deleted user] (new)

It actually doesn't bother me too much. The original is in A minor and ends in C# minor, which is one of my favorites. They change it to Bb and D minor a lot, though, because most of the tenors playing Marius have a hard time with the low A. And I just love Bb minor, so either way it sounds pretty.


message 1639: by Taylor (new)

Taylor  | 0 comments Oops, I meant I haven't heard the YouTube version. Oops. :#)

And I know the key. I have perfect pitch too, remember? :D


message 1640: by [deleted user] (new)

Aaah. I misunderstood.

Sorry. Any time I have an excuse to ramble about this kind of stuff, I will. I was less saying it to inform you and more saying it just to get the thought out there. Hehe.

I don't like all Suburbs tracks but Funeral is certainly more consistently great :)

Abigail Williams | 251 comments I'm listening to a song by THE PIANO GUYS - highly recommend the group!


message 1643: by Taylor (new)

Taylor  | 0 comments I miss Jon's old stuff. There's nothing original about Steve Sha--I mean, The Piano Guys. (Let's be honest...the cellist is running the show.)


message 1644: by [deleted user] (new)

I adore The Piano Guys. And yeah, Steve does get a lot of attention, but I think that's okay. I like both of them.

^^^^^^ THIS ^^^^^^^^^^

Which one are you listening to?"


I was listening my brother playing Cello Wars - not one of my favorites but quite amusing :D. My favorite, though, is the one they did about Pachelbel Cannon.

Aah, I love them so much. Their version of A Thousand Years is so gorgeous. You should check it out.


message 1647: by Taylor (new)

Taylor  | 0 comments I want something fresh, though. D: Not just arrangements. I miss Jon's compositions/I>.

(Admittedly, I'mma learn the piano part for What Makes You Beautiful and sing it to a girl one day)

PEPONI IS THE BEST. Jon Schmidt + Steven Sharp Nelson + Alex Boye + a Coldplay song = automatic awesome.

For choir this semester we're doing an arrangement of Simple Gifts, but the words are different. It's called Lord of the Dance and it's so gorgeous. And we're also singing a song based on an Emily Dickinson poem. And we're FINALLY singing a song in a minor key. Anyways, that was a tangent. But I'm excited.
