Poll


I'm starting to think that no one reads this blog.  

If you're out there, please watch these videos and comment with which song version you like better.  This afternoon, while avoiding my thesis, I recorded both of these covers* of the song "Why do you let me stay here" (She & Him) with the program Audacity.  All of the vocals are yours truly and the guitar (that's been distorted by too much "noise removal").  While I won't tell you which one I like better, I will say that I think I sound better in one of them.

Enjoy:

Tomorrow I get to go back to Camp Royall and make up for all of the Autism I've missed the past month!  I'm sooo excited.  David's going to come and volunteer too :)

Love,
Monica

*And I acknowledge that I may have screwed up the lyrics in the song...

Hmmm...maybe the first one? I'm not sure if that's just because I listened to it first though. I think they both sound good! You are super talented.

And I am obsessed with reading your blog, so there!

MONICAAAAA i LOVE IT!!!!!!! u know its hard for me to fake enthusism so U KNOW I REALLY MEAN IT! i like the first one a lot better. this is tricky.. ur voice sounds good in both, but it'd say 1st > 2nd .. mainly cos the way you arranged the harmonies is so lovely and i just like how the instrumentals sound in the first one a lot better. it sounds freer and idk if it makes sense, but more open. with depth. eh? well guess i just dont like the mutedness in the 2nd vid. i knew you were talented, but girl this is impressive! send me the mp3 version if u can!
