The Song
I’ve been trying for over a week to record the most perfect version of “When I Fall In Love” ever.
It has nothing to do with actual recording quality because if you could see my set up you’d know it can only ever get so good, and it’s not even worth the effort it might take to make it that good.
But you’ve seen me post up mp3s of covers I’ve done in the past. They’re usually songs I love in one way or another. Something that’s fun to play on ukulele. Something I really love singing.
But this song, obviously, is different.
I just can’t seem to make it perfect… not perfect enough. This one HAS to be.
A few weeks ago I taught my last voice lesson for the foreseeable future. That’s a whole other post in itself, but what it meant was that I could finally set my piano back up in a permanent sort of way, knowing it wouldn’t have to be torn right back down days later. I put it up against the wall, and I put together some sheet music collage “art” to hang above it, with ribbon wrapped around it to hold music when I actually wanted to play. Interchangeable musical art.
It hasn’t been changed yet. I don’t suppose I’ll change it until I’m done needing that perfect version of the most perfect song ever written.
But really, it is, don’t you think?
I miss you. I miss that music is your life and you make ribbon music art. I miss your passion. I miss not knowing what’s going on. I’ll be less stranger like. Promise. Oh and this it the blogger formally known as JPP. Love ya girl.
of course it has to be perfect. just remember one thing, though, perfect usually comes from the heart. i love you. :)
Yes, that is my absolute favorite love song of ALL TIME. I can’t wait to hear you sing it. :)
