My Talented Brother

I just wanted to post my brother's song on here... I recorded the piano and then he recorded it at my house. I think it turned out really well. It's the first song in my jukebox on the right. (This is a Celtic Women song, if you are interested. It's really beautiful.)

American Idol Disappointment

I've been waiting patiently for Ryan Seacrest to mention the songwriting contest... and yet another night passed with nothing mentioned. So I went online this morning and found an article saying that the contest was canceled and that Kara will probably write the song. The article was a few weeks old, but at the time, Kara said she'd take a stab at it and see what happens. She is taking the opportunity so lightly, when others have been working hard all year and would kill for the chance. I didn't seriously think my song would win, but I wanted a chance to try. Oh well, I'll finish it off and put it on here so at least a few people can hear it. I'm very proud that I actually wrote a song from start to finish that I'm not embarrassed about (except for my vocals). I guess I have to just be happy about that!
