I have a little question, maybe a bit obvious. Do you have an HD recorder? I can hear your voice so clearly, and as I said before, your cover of Dreams sounds fantastic!
I ask it to you because I want to record some covers here in my house, and you know, those things about the own voice, the acoustics, the walls, etc...I want to go to a studio, but my parents don't help me. They say I must "learn" to play, and sing too. Well I can sing, but I always say to them "shut up! Maybe I'm not Paige, Hendrix or Lindsey, but I can play what you want to listen! I learned for myself"
Regards and thank you!

I recorded the "Dreams" cover using a Sennheiser e835, which is basically like a stage mic. It cost about $90 I think? And I record a lot of my other vidoes (We Became, for example) using a USB condenser mic called a Blue Yeti. It is really could quality and just plugs straight into the computer.

Here's something I came up with today. My mom actually wrote the first verse and I finished it and put it to music.

It's unfortunately titled 'Storms' because it seemed the most obvious. But there's no relation to the Fleetwood Mac song



Storms, they pass and fail
But I’m too frail to take a stand
Storms, they come and go
But they don’t show my shaking hands

I step out on sinking sand
But my heart doesn’t understand
Every second I’m pulled in
The storm begins to sing again

Storms, their rule is harsh
They keep their watch on those like me
Storms, their rage is deep
But I escape them in my sleep

I step out on timeless dreams
That my heart wants me to believe
Every second I’m pulled in
Until the storm begins again

Storms, their winds will blow
But I will keep on going strong
Storms, their fate is known
But mine is an unfinished song

I step out on watered roads
Still my heart beats beneath my clothes
Every second I’m pulled in
But I’ve begun to sing again

Every second I’m pulled in
But I’ve begun to sing again
