Singing French is Fun!

No, I have not given up my blog or singing, I've been busy... with my garden. Seriously though, there is like two months in New Orleans were it is tolerable to be outside and I have a large yard soooo you see my predicament. Anywho, it is a rainy day so I thought I'd do a bit of blogging during the kid's nap time. 


So I have good news! I may have my first singing job! Yay!(I realize that was a lot of exclamation points, but I'm really excited)! My husband works with a girl who needs a wedding singer and so he recommended me. I mean, what do people charge for singing in weddings? I have always sung for free. 


I am even more proud of myself because I have managed to clean the house, video record a song, and post a blog all in the same day, AND there is time left over for some "me time" tonight. 


So about the video, I decided to do La Vie en Rose because I love the song and have always wanted to learn it. The video is not the whole song, but it's the best I could do under the time constraints. I decided to show myself singing this time, and I already regret it. My hair is all F'ed up, and I can't even look at the camera because I'm reading the lyrics. But whatever, here it is...

And the break continues...

My voice is shot. Mardi Gras + Cold = Man Voice. However, I have chosen my next song to learn, but I'm not spilling the beans yet. I will just say that it's going to be a doozy because it's in a different language.
Until next time...
