Things that need to be worked out

Two things have had this blog in sort of a lock-down.

For one, my stubborn irish cold. It's getting better by the day, though I can never be sure how my voice will feel. The voice becomes unpredictable, wich in turn means that if it 'aint working properly - well then I'm not really allowed to sing. So lets cross our fingers for a speedy recovery on that part.

One the other hand, I'm having difficulties with the flash players I was recommended to have. You see, since the player I have right now for my songs is from another website, I don't want to post unfinished material on that site (unfinished as in little different parts and adlibbing). So I wanted a separated player. But something so simple, I wouldn't have to read a manual to figure out how to work it (I don't like manuals. They're grey, have tiny letters, and well they don't amuse me. I like to be amused. I from the new generation, I have no attention span)

So, I've had a song - or parts of a song - that I'd like to use here. My intention from the beginning is to show openly the creative process (sorry if that sounds pretentious). How the little pieces come together, how you find what the pieces will be - what story will they convey - and how you know when a song is done.

The new song has a only got a chorus and an end. No verses (for some reason they are the hardest to figure out). It will be something about pieces, secrets and storytelling. For some reason I often write about keeping secrets. Not that I have that many. But I know how to keep one.

So, my dear friends, I will get that flash mp3player to work, and then I will post what I've gotten so far on the new song.

If anybody, knows anything about the mp3 players you get from flashkit.com (and how I get them alive and kicking) please tell me.

Hope you're all having a nice day. I have started to play the sims again. Fantastic game, but it puts you in sort of a trance. Scary.
