Back after a week off I eagerly picked up the new songs sheets and wafted into the hall. One of them was a phonic version of THE PRAYER in three colours too. Ed promised we would break the back of that one today.
A quick warm up ensued.
The air was giddy. We Oooooooohed THE PRAYER. Aiiiiirrrrr’d and Aaaaaaaaahed. Then we left that and sang KISS ME. Don’t forget the bonus kiss at the end. We really need to bring this to life. Animation. And er romance. So we did and Ed was very happy.
Bunny time BRIGHT EYES requires drivers over passengers. Sing it like it’s the audition of your life.
We looked at THE RIDDLE which is complete nonsense. It doesn’t matter. What’s matters is our passion and conviction. Remember the cross over choruses at the end and the weird key at the middle eight. Hmmmm. I think I’m going to look up the video on YouTube. We practiced all the endy bits.
Then ten minutes of solid hard work lay ahead. We sang THE PRAYER with Ed at the piano. We sort of spit the song in two halves as well as the room, and worked harder on the first half.
Some people are looking forward to the dots, next week. HOLD ME CLOSE provided a little light relief. We really needed it after that.
Another blast from the past, SEVEN TEARS and it starts with humming.
And WE KNOW HIM SO WELL began with the chorus and Ed at the piano before standing to performs! Eeek!
Phew. Have a happy happy half term, lots of love. Xxx
