Mary wants to join a band episode 6: not cut out for math rock?

 


Hi Natty!  That's a beautiful slideshow.  It shows how much you love this world, and you can see all the greatness in it.  You make me want to take good care of you, and do all I can so nothing bad ever happens to you.  You are truly, my better half.  I love you.

Yvette Young put this song out on YouTube, so Mary and I have been working on it for the past couple of weeks to try record a good vocal track, to show to Yvette.  Unfortunately she can't hit the high notes, and she's been in tears over it.  She said she feels humiliated.  Don't worry folks, she weeps all the time.  Everyday.  I told her, "If Yvette can hit those notes then that means she wants to sing it herself.  If anything, you can sing backup."  But Mary can't even do that.  If you folks hadn't noticed, she keeps terrible time.  You people don't hear it on your side of the stream, but I listen to her everyday singing along to the track coming out of the monitor.  Mary Unknown7 is an emotional singer, and what she does is stomp all over the music with her emotions.  I said to her, "You are a pop diva.  I don't know why you want to join a technical band like Covet.  If you really want to join a band, let's just find a more straightforward music that doesn't make you sing too many high notes."  She's really bummed out about this, folks.  But I'm going to pull the plug on this "Simple and Clean" project, and have her get back to studying more Ella Fitzgerald and Patsy Cline.
