I had this urge to sing again <<, >>
This time I reccorded a complete song: J'ai connu de vous by Burghardt Klausner.

I don't know why it is that everytime I feel like reccording myself singing, I always happen to sing a French song <<, >>

Want to test your endurance?

Don't go grocery shopping for over a week. Then go grocery shopping without your car. The further the grocery store, the better =) If your muscles ache and your hands turn purple, that's just to show that you're still alive X)

Fun times =)

Ok, so I didn't think my previous singing clips were very flattering to myself, so I tried to record a song that might make me sound better.
<URL:stuff/Danse%20mon%20Esmeralda.mp3>
This is the beginning of the song 'Danse mon Esmeralda' sung by Garou in the rock opera Notre-Dame de Paris. The lyrics were writen by Luc Plamondon and the music by Richard Cocciante.

Here is a translation of what I am singing in French:

<sub>When many years will have passed
Some may find here, underground
Our skeletons, embracing each other
So that everyone may know
How much Quasimodo loved
Esmeralda the zingara
God had made him so ugly
So that he may better carry his cross ...
So that he may better carry his cross ...

Eat my corpse, drink my blood
Montfaucon (Mount Falcon) vultures
Let death beyond time
Unite our two names
Let my soul fly away
Far from Earth's miseries
Let my love blend itself
With the light of the Universe ...
With the light of the Universe ...</sub>

This is a piece of the song Célibataire by Hugo Lapointe (Bachelor), interpreted by yours truely. The rest of the lyrics for the song aren't very ethical, but this little piece is nice.

(Lyrics translated so you know what I'm saying)
_{Of course I would like to find my soulmate
And have my happiness redefined
Someone with whom I can share
My joys, my sorrows and my pride
I'm not a great communicator
Even when I speak with my heart
Tell me who would want to comfort
A lack of love gone wild
Comfort}

I got a microphone today XP
What does that mean? Snowman crazyness of course =P

You'll have guess that the second one is the French version of the first. The lyrics are not exactly the same though. Here's what the French version says:

If you love the sun, clap your hands. *clap* *clap*
If you love the sun, clap your hands. *clap* *clap*
If you love the sun,
And spring that is waking up,
If you love the sun, clap your hands. *clap* *clap*

Only the Sun Knows How I Feel

To the Sun there is nothing more beautiful
More radiant, rare and fair than its lovely moon
But they barely glimpse each other, they part too soon
And this distance almost makes the sun tearful

It is not to be put down so easily though
Each morning it rises with a fiery passion
And it hopes in its affectionnate ascention
To finaly reach its love, be united so

Despite its will at noon it reaches its climax
It must sadly go back down and slowly relax
But yet as it sleeps it gathers its strength anew

So the next day it can set off even higher
Reaching for that shared future that is much brighter
Because I know I can be so happy with you
