Blessed Yule!
I haven't seen Metropolis. Did Queen do the soundtrack for it?
ye gods and little catfishes, how do we get on this and blogabout -can we wear our no fear teeshirts too?
Anyone who has music in the heart can sing. Some of us are born with wooden flutes, some with silver flutes. Some of us have a natural "ear," some need ear training. But anyone with a larynx can sing, given the desire. If you want to sing, never let anyone tell you just to mouth the words. (People who tell others not to sing should be forced to listen to Bush's speeches over and over until they repent.)
--Soprano
