we make stuff

[rm]

Tranformative work.
Interstitial work.
Collaborative work.

This is the stuff I live for, kids. And I love so much that I got to be a part of this one... Once upon a time, someone made a TV show. And then someone wrote some fanfiction. And then someone else made some art for that fanfiction. And then I sang.

Stuff! (with links and downloads. Sane people with download the mp3; crazy people who understand how much is lost in a conversion to .mp3 from .wav will go for the .wav).

Did you make up the music? It has a lullabyish quality to it. I wonder, do you sing mostly in chest voice / belt? Because the teeny bit of what sounds more likes head voice at the very end makes me think you should be developing both chest and head.

Yup. Made up the music. I'm actually a very pretty little soprano (something I only discovered a couple of years ago when I started taking voice lessons), but am waaaaaaaay more comfortable in my chest voice

I like.

Yeah, hold that thought, rather than the "really weird quality" you think you have. FWIW (I used to sing semiprofessionally and review opera - and didn't start till I was probably about your age, though I've always sung), I don't hear the latter. Most of us know our recorded speaking voices sound odd to us, but many people don't realize the same holds true for our singing voices.

OTOH, if someone has told you your voice has a weird quality, it may just mean you don't sound like all the other pretty little sopranos - who, face it, are a dime a dozen (I should know; I'm one).

That came out wrong - sounds like I'm denigrating you and myself. Not. (Though, yeah, I'd give a lot to be a mezzo.)

It's just perfect. Thank you so much.

It's sung to the FoB while he is dying, so it IS a lullaby.

Come to think, it a lullaby to the dead.
