Ohmygoodness, I can see how nervous you are from your body language and such, but OHMYGOODNESS, you can SING, girl! I'm so proud of your taking the chance to get up and just do it! Bill's a lucky guy!

Thanks, Mia. I wasn't nervous. Really. I was holding my glasses and am always a bit awkward up there but I wasn't nervous. When I sang the first time "Drift Away," I was nervous. My voice was REALLY shaking. It's all in fun. Not like I'm taking it on the road! I hope you're well.

The problem is I can't seem to find a happy medium between the high (which I sang...pretty badly I might say) and low since I have trouble projecting when my voice is lower. Like Jane wrote below, I need to warm up. I didn't. But it was fun. Now if only I can take that courage to business, I'd be raking in the bucks! Miss you guys! xoxo

you got guts. . . and a voice! you need a good warm-up to hit the high notes and transpose the piece down a few notes. protect your voice. xx

Like your last name, Jane. Very clever.

Is it guts, Jane, or just not caring how I sound up there since the group is a very comfortable one to be with. It's funny how Laraine (who was holding the phone recording it) would laugh and the phone would shake. I heard Bill in there some time too. I would have to practice singing it lower...or higher which I can do if I took the time to do it, I guess.

Guts Schmuts -- It doesn't take guts to sing. Every child can sing. No one comes up and beats you with a stick or drags you off to jail if you sing off tune or miss a note. The idea that it takes guts to sing is an illusion. By imagining that it takes guts, you feed the idea that it is like swimming in a shark tank. It isn't. It's play. You have to approach it as PLAY. P - L - A - Y. There is nothing fearful to overcome -- you just imagine that there is. Get tough with yourself and tell that voice within you that says its scary to sing to take a hike. Do you still love me after this rant?

Well, Selwyn, it's your view on singing. For a lot of people (including me) it's about getting over the fear of looking like a fool. When I am with my family, I agree, it doesn't take guts to sing. I am not being judged by them. I just...sing. When I went to sing "Fever" a few weeks ago and the restaurant was packed, I was petrified! I felt judged and it wasn't as much fun. So, it took guts to do it. It was much easier to sit at the table and have another glass of wine.

Loved this Kati! Reminded me of singing when we were kids. Remember all those afternoons that we sang to Fiddler on the Roof?

Those were very special times, Kathleen. I remember them fondly. We would stand up on the bed with a hairbrush in hand and belt it out! Cashman and West, Fiddler on the Roof. Fun times!
