Yesterday I made a promise to myself to start watching what I snack on a bit better. Today I came home and ate a bowl of potato chips and a huge handful of jelly beans. Good start ( Read more... )

Well, let's put it this way - she couldn't construct a proper sentance to save her life and she seems to think that !!! is the common way to end most sentances. I really try, but I can't picture her having an IQ high enough to sing opera - and I HATE dumb singers. Hate hate hate.

I really liked your recording - for true. It's truly great to hear a tenor that doesn't sound like Kermit the Frog. Your voice really moves too, which I love. I'll post Una Voce after my recital if it's any good and we can have a coloratura-off (ala dance-off)

As for the other girl that posted her recording, my first instinct (as my first instinct usually is) was to post "damn you have a huge vibrato wobble, I'd watch that." But then the tears would start, and I'd be the huge bitch who tells the un-candy coated truth.

So true about the candy coated truth. People seem to post things on here with hearts filled with hope for lots of "oooh your voice is gorgeous" when some of us are really thinking... uhm... You've got a jacked up voice. Take it back to the practice room.
I also hate it when shitty people sing the lit/arias I'm working on/have worked on. It's almost like these songs become my children and then when I turn my back and some stupid bitch is giving them winecoolers and letting them watch porn. LOL What a weird comparison.

HAHAHAHA! I love it. I think I just snorted tea up my nose.

I really should quit operasingers, but something just won't let me. Everytime I read a post from some idealistic 16 year old 'spinto' or listen to a crap recording of someone who is going to go to whichever conservatory they are going to, I generally think the two or three of the following things:

#1 - Well, I know I'm better than them. Score.
#2 - Dude. You're going to get a major kick in the ass in a few years when you realize that *insert crazy bad technique issue* isn't going to fly. I hope you're working on that.
#3 - Stop it.

None of these comments are really very helpful...or nice. So I hang back and play Simon Cowel in my head.
