A long long time ago – actually more like 6 months ago – I posted a cover on my excuse for a Youtube channel and since then, haven’t posted any more.
That is, until now. I’ve missed singing – it’s not that I’ve not sung, it’s that I haven’t sung to you guys in such a long time. Because you can’t see my face, or me in real life, you’re only going on what my voice sounds like and I love that. It’s a wonder that I haven’t done this sooner, but life caught up with me and kind of sucked away my motivation to do much.
So, here you go. I sang Riptide by Vance Joy, and I adore the song: you can’t really sing a song you hate, or at least I can’t.
Apologies for the crap audio quality; I have no recording software which I can access, which makes me very sad. Oh well – it’s better than nothing – and my perfectionist nature will have to deal with it.
I really hope you like it. I tried recording it several times, and eventually just went with the last recording I did because I was picking my voice apart too much.
From Elm π
