Embarrassing noises - JoeGreenz schings

When I was a kid… intermediate school, I was picked as a soloist to sing a Mozart song at a school concert.

I didn't show up on opening night.

Silence.

I couldn't deal with doing Fred Dagg impersonations during the day with my mates, then performing a suck, poncy singspiel of an evening.

At 12, insecurity had a secure hold.

Since then I have never even sung Happy Birthday.

I was muted.

A lovely friend gave me her iPhone recently - a perfectly good G3S - when she upgraded to the 4.

I have become app-crazy.

I found an app recently that encouraged me to sing (or something like it). It's called LaDiDa

I love the poem Rain by Hone Tuwhare.

Would make and exshellent song thought I.

So…here is my interpretation…

One take…an iPhone and maybe a little more unhappiness and chardonnay than is good for a man.

(Please be gentle in your criticism…I have dainty hands).
