one guy with a guitar

i don't know if any of you noticed this, but i really do treat 64D like a diary. last blog, i knew that since it was only geared towards kilin i wasn't necessarily going to get many responses, but oh well! i wanted to reply because i tested how much i knew about smash in general and i had to look some stuff up. i'm no expert yet.

a few nights ago i was motivated to sing some songs. here are the ones i want to cover:

Sufjan Stevens - John Wayne Gacy Jr.

Fleet Foxes - Helplessness Blues

Beatles - A Day In The Life

as expected, my music states are getting a little more depressing. even though my school and job are fine, i feel empty from not having a companion.

my roommate doesn't count. he's a guy and i can't cuddle with him. i need a girl for that.

this is when i can start practicing guitar without giving up time on anything else. i WANT to record these songs and have them in their finished form. right now, they are not where i am satisfied. in fact, what i'm about to post does not satisfy me at all. i want to post it anyway. i put my heart out in some parts of the following (and if you can't tell, i need more practice)

A DAY IN THE LIFE

HELPLESSNESS BLUES

take 3 - http://files.64digits.com/Reiddsan/Helplessness%20Blues%20(3).mp3

for helplessness blues, i think take 3 came out the best. you hear cursing due to me trying to cut out the nervousness and just sing. i definitely need more practice, like a few months worth. when my voice is breaking, yes, i reached my limit as to how high i can make my voice go.

john wayne gacy jr. is not uploaded yet because it's not solified yet. that one is a little harder.

do NOT be scared to criticize. in fact, i want it. if i suck, just say so.
