May 11, 201115 yr ^^ D'aww thanks! :nice: Well I've got to go! Really like to speak to you guys! :D Bye everyone! :hug: EDIT: ^ Violet, what you do is awesome!!! I wish I could have talent to play music! :D I mentioned that in my recording...My intro can't beat your intro!! :bomb::lol:
May 11, 201115 yr Kelly! I finally downloaded yours and got it to work. You have a completely normal accent to me... I was expecting more of a Northern accent because of your location in the country... But it only presents itself on a few words. :D
May 11, 201115 yr :uhoh: I think the blue is cool, pink or purple would be awesome too though! And yes, I love Friendly Fires! That picture is one of my favourites at the moment. All of your videos/recordings have been great so far guys! Ines, your accent is so cool, seriously :wacko: I'm not great at recording things. I may or may not. I've kinda missed the rush anyway :P Please do join in. It's so cool to be getting all these different accents from various places in the world! And Friendly Fires :heart: I have missed them so much since their last album. I'm seeing them on Friday night (hopefully, depends on how early I get there because I have the wristband that will give me access but I'll have to fight off the other like 2000+ people trying to get into 1000 capacity venue). I'm hoping that they may do a secret show during the day on Friday too.
May 11, 201115 yr Good night, Ines! Well, I just didn't want to sound arrogant. I feel like I tend to sound that way a bit when I talk about my musical abilities. :disappointed: Actually, in general, I don't really care to talk about myself that much because other people are so much more interesting than I am. Who am I? I'm Violet, and I'm a 21-year-old music education major. BOOM. That pretty much covers my life. Other people have much more elaborate lives, y'know? You didn't sound arrogant at all! I found it really cool to read. :smiley: I can relate to what you're saying (I feel quite mundane, compared to others) but I still think you're a really interesting person. :hug: And sometimes for me, I find it a little easier to relate to people a little more "ordinary" like me (not in a bad way!). I hope that doesn't sound creepy/weird. :blank: I'm not great with words.

You have a completely normal accent to me... I was expecting more of a Northern accent because of your location in the country... But it only presents itself on a few words. :D I was thinking you would think I sound like a farmer or something as that's how most people speak like around here. :lol:

I wish I could have talent to play music! :D I mentioned that in my recording...My intro can't beat your intro!! :bomb::lol: Awww, Ines. :blush: You're too sweet. :hug: Thank you, and g'night. :nice: You didn't sound arrogant at all!

I hope that doesn't sound creepy/weird. :blank: I'm not great with words. Good, because I try to avoid that at all costs. Arrogance is one of two things that I find are a huge turn-off when it comes to other people, so I don't want to be like that. Awwwww, thank you. :blush: :laugh4: No, that didn't sound creepy at all. :smiley: Kelly, I downloaded your thingy, and it messed up. I got like, half a second's worth of just noise. :wtf: I'll try again later. ... I've done a bit of thinking about this, and I wanted to ask you guys about it. How would you guys feel about hearing me do a full Muse cover? I wanna do it, but I don't wanna make a fool out of myself. Heh. If you like, it doesn't even have to be a Muse cover. I can do something else. It's just that I feel like doing more of that after the bundle of compliments I got just for the TIRO snippet. :blush:

I'm hoping that they may do a secret show during the day on Friday too. OK, maybe tonight. I have to go now though, I'm already 20min late for uni! I'm so jealous!!! I'm seeing them at a festival here in July, and I saw them at another festival this past February, have you ever seen them live before? Definitely try to get in, they're so much fun! It's even worth it just to see Ed's dancing :awesome: Good luck! Edit: Violet, DO IT! :cheesy: Please. :nice:

You're awesome! :cheesy:

Awwwww, thank you. :blush: :laugh4: No, that didn't sound creepy at all. :smiley: Ah, definitely. No one likes an arrogant person. :shifty: Whew, that's good then! :sweatdrop: :nice: As for a Muse cover and/or other covers (whichever combo you prefer), go for it! I would love to listen.
May 11, 201115 yr I was thinking you would think I sound like a farmer or something as that's how most people speak like around here. :lol: :laugh3: No way! I don't expect that from the more northern reaches of the country at all for some reason. I'm from where the real farmers are at. Everyone around ours are like listening to the Wurzle's 'Combine Harvester' OK, maybe tonight. I have to go now though, I'm already 20min late for uni! I'm so jealous!!! I'm seeing them at a festival here in July, and I saw them at another festival this past February, have you ever seen them live before? Definitely try to get in, they're so much fun! It's even worth it just to see Ed's dancing :awesome: Good luck! Run. Dash to uni! (Time-zones, my aching skull). I will definitely try and get in to see them as I've never seen them before. If I do miss them though, I'm seeing them at a festival in July too :awesome: Oh now you've said about the dancing I won't notice anything else I bet! And Violet I second, third and fourth everyone else. You should totally do it! Anyway, now it is time for me to go outtie... Got a 9-4 day tomorrow and then obvs gigs all night. I will hopefully pop in and random points during the next few days-- if not, hope everyone enjoys their weekends. Peace out.
May 11, 201115 yr Bye, Natt! I hope you have an amazing time at Great Escape. By the way, props to you for the voice post idea; that was a lot of fun, and it was great to actually hear all of you. :nice:

May 11, 201115 yr ^^^ I love your accent! :D British accents are just...:awesome: Here's mine...I know it's an awkward recording :lol: http://www.mediafire.com/?448cbu8zz2aj641 You're accent is beautiful! It's very exoctic and refeshing to hear. :wacky:
May 11, 201115 yr I say "you guys" a lot in this video. :blank: I apologize for that. But yep, here it is! I'm gonna put it under a spoiler, because I'm self-conscious like that. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7_Fax9jL20 Ah, I see. But hey! At least you can change the colors whenever you feel like it or to suit a special occasion. :lol: I'm sure Mystery Bat will miss you too. I've read about your flat on LJ. :hug: Hopefully, things will be much better in your new place. Aww! Don't be self-concious! You have a nice mid-western type accent. :)
May 11, 201115 yr Edit: Violet, DO IT! :cheesy: Please. :nice: BAHAHA. :D Oh. :\ I could try re-uploading if that would help? Yes, do it! You're awesome! :cheesy: I'll just try again tomorrow, and if it doesn't work then, I'll put in a request for you to upload it. :nice: Awwwww. :blush: Fank yew. :wacky: Ah, definitely. No one likes an arrogant person. :shifty: Whew, that's good then! :sweatdrop: :nice: As for a Muse cover and/or other covers (whichever combo you prefer), go for it! I would love to listen. :cheesy: And Violet I second, third and fourth everyone else. You should totally do it! OK, so since I'm basically getting "YES" from everyone, I might as well actually do something. I'd love to take song suggestions, as I'm having a bit of trouble deciding what to do. Bye, Natt! I hope you have an amazing time at Great Escape. By the way, props to you for the voice post idea; that was a lot of fun, and it was great to actually hear all of you. :nice: Yeah, Natt, cheers! This is fun. :D You're accent is beautiful! It's very exoctic and refeshing to hear. :wacky: Yeah, Ines! You sound so adorable. :blush: Actually, at first, the Portuguese didn't register, and I for some reason felt like your accent was Russian or something. I wasn't thinking clearly. BAHA. :| But yeah. You're not boring. As an American, I don't typically hear people that sound like you. I think it's cool. :wacky:
May 12, 201115 yr OK, so since I'm basically getting "YES" from everyone, I might as well actually do something. I'd love to take song suggestions, as I'm having a bit of trouble deciding what to do. I forgot to add myself to the yes you should make a cover consensus. I'd like to hear Bliss if you can do that one. :D
May 12, 201115 yr I HAZ LINK. [ame= ] [/ame] Sorry for my clarinet, listening to it now it sounds like shit. :disappointed:
May 12, 201115 yr I HAZ LINK. Sorry for my clarinet, listening to it now it sounds like shit. :disappointed: You're clarinet wasn't bad! Plus, you're excited for your band concert, it't totally undertandable that you want to show off. Good luck tomorrow! :D I hope your allergies are getting better. It's interesting to hear you after we were talking about where we were from yesterday. :)
May 12, 201115 yr Thanks. :hug: VIOLET I LOVE YOUR HORN PLAYING. Ines, I think your accent is adorable. :blush: And you're not boring. :P And I loved the part about staring at the picture of Dom. :lol: :heart: Natt, you have a cool accent too. :awesome: Kelly, your file didn't download properly. :\
May 12, 201115 yr I forgot to add myself to the yes you should make a cover consensus. I'd like to hear Bliss if you can do that one. :D Hmmm, maybe. If I were to do that, I'd probably have to make a multi-track. I can play the piano part, but it's pointless if you don't have the melody line with it, and truth be told, I'm not all that used to playing piano and singing at the same time. Also, doing the melody line with another instrument would require me to use another track, anyway, as I need both hands for the piano. Perhaps I should put more thought into these things before I blindly go, "Yeah, let's do this!" :tongue:

I play piano, guitar, and violin btw. My guitar playing is pretty basic and I haven't played the violin in ages. I'm more of a piano girl myself. But I don't have a piano at my apartment and haven't bought a keyboard yet. :( I agree that singing and playing is hard. I have trouble making my voice compete with the piano for attention. The piano always seems to overpower it.
May 12, 201115 yr VI VI YEW NEED TEW PLAY TEH SONG BY DIS BAND CALLED MYOOZE AND ITS CALLED UP RISING.

The piano always seems to overpower it. Dude! I have the same problem! To be fair, I think part of my problem is the fact that I'm VERY self-conscious about my voice. Remember how I was worried about how I sounded when talking? Take that, multiply it by 10, and you have what I think of as I sing. Actually, if I were to sing anything, it'd be the first time I'd ever publically sang for a group of people. :freak: I actually was considering doing "Apocalypse Please," but because of what I said above about my voice issues, I'm not so sure if I should. I can play the piano part just fine. I'm just afraid of getting ridiculed due to how my singing sounds. DAMN YOU, LACK OF CONFIDENCE. VI VI YEW NEED TEW PLAY TEH SONG BY DIS BAND CALLED MYOOZE AND ITS CALLED UP RISING. WTF, Christina. :lol:
