A new world

I was surfing through the videos on youtube and i noticed the number of singers who had put up videos of themselves singing-overwhelming.One girl called Esmee Denters kinda stood out, I thought she had a good voice and what struck me was the number of people who had viewed her videos and subscribed for them.I was watching one of her videos where she was singing "what goes around comes around" by Justin Timberlake , which I thought was a pretty good try.Suddenly to my complete surprise at the end of the video the camera suddenly shifts to somebody sitting in the same studio on a couch, singing backup vocals for her.It was none other than JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE!aaahhh!!!He had noticed her on youtube!She now has a contract with his record label and is touring with him and Natasha Bedingfield!So I guess at that exact moment in time I thought to myself, "why not!".

I currently have about 19 videos on youtube of me singing various songs.I love opening my mail in the morning coz theres always a "new comment from youtube".Its overwhelming the encouragement complete strangers are willing to offer to someone who they think has talent.People I've never met before post messages that are so motivating.I remember thinking ok this is kinda weird, why am I putting up videos!lol!However, everytime I feel uneasy I check my mail and there it is!Another new comment encouraging me on!!Of course I know there are haters who arent so kind.But its ok, it would take more than a few words of slander to deter me now.I've been sent messages my a few websites that are all about singing talent and have competitions with prizes that are definitly good motivation to participate.One site is offering a grand prize of 1000 pounds!!insane!Of course there is a tiny sceptical voice in my head that says ok is this for real?Well, I'll never know if I dont give it a shot!!In the meanwhile, this new thing I've got myself into does wonders for my ego!;-)

So here is a video of me singing Unwritten by Natasha Bedingfield.Love the spirit of this song-"I'm just beginning the pens in my hand....reaching for something in the distance, so close you can almost taste it, RELEASE YOUR INHIBITIONS!!!"
