It was a busy day, and a fun day. Started with a voice lesson where I learned yet another new thing about singing that I get to start practicing. Then I had an appointment with a CFS leak specialist doctor who instructed me to look in to “spiky CSF leaks” which in my brief investigation does sound somewhat relevant. He wants me to go to Oahu for more imaging, so I guess that’s the direction that is heading.
Finally on today’s stream we had a bunch of new people stop by. Opened up with playing through my set of 9 songs by The Strokes, and then had a nice long chat with a new viewer who got me to attempt a handful of AJR songs. I’d never heard of the band or the songs, but I attempted them. It’s always fun to see how different my version reading off the chart alone is from the actual song. I liked the lyrics a lot, so I’ll definitely be looking into that band more. And, further failing at “quality over quantity” – 8 new songs to learn got added to the set today XD
Here are some songs that stood out to me today:
- New Songs Attempted
- The Big Goodbye – AJR
- God is Really Real – AJR
- A Dog Song – AJR
- Works in Progress
- Free Bird – Lynard Skynard
- Heart Beats in its Cage – The Strokes
- The Next Episode – Dr. Dre
- Learned Songs Revisited
- Wanderlust King – Gogol Bordello
- Coin Operated Boy – Dresden Dolls
- Is this it? – The Strokes
- Song of the Day: Ode to the Mets – The Strokes
- Someone who joined the Uke Tribe Discord introduced me to this song because they wanted to play it, and I really liked it. I still don’t really know what it means, and don’t know how it relates to the Mets, but who cares the song is good. I am assuming the Mets are the baseball team right? Well, further proof that you don’t actually need to understand a song to enjoy it.
