Weakling Miu

I think I screwed up the recording on sat. I did not do as well as the first time. Alban was late. He has gone to buy an electronic organ from the near by store. I couldn't believe that he bought it right on the spot. 1k for that organ so that his piano teacher could play with it for the recording? Wow.....he really dots his teacher alot! But of cos, it is also a long term investment for him since he need a good organ for his composing as well. So that is a worth buy too.

The pianist walked in. They set up the equipment. The feeling was weird. They are all the professionals! And here I am, standing at a corner with the lyrics in hand. He asked if I have tried the G key? I replied "huh?". He got my hint and played the intro and got me started singing. The nervousness got into me. I sang like chasing after a train. It doesn't help even though the pianist joked with me. I was just too tense! I just have got too high expectations of myself that I stressed too much and not able to voice out. I hope my voice will go softer and softer and slowly be mute. LOL! Luckily I have got Ginnise with me to give some support. She was encouraging.

The pianist started again. "This time, you will sing it twice and the third time, repeat the chorus. The intro will be 4 bars, the pause in between will be another 10, then you repeat the chorus again". The "dao gay" (notes) started to take forms in my mind. It really need abit of mind coordination here, having to take note when to come in, when to pause, when to repeat, while trying to control and not sing out of tune. My brain was disoriented with my mouth.

The recording was finally over and the pianist will be getting his mini band in for the next recording in another studio which is much more spacious . *Faint*

I really wish they will do a separate recording from me. I can't do it in a crowd! Weakling Miu...thats me.
