December 26th, 2006Why I’ve Never Tried for Canadian Idol
Most of us enjoy singing, even if it’s in the privacy of our showers.
Today, Reiko and I spent over three hours at a local karaoke place and we had a great time. I thought that maybe after my last performance in April that she might not want to hear me try to sing in tune, or see me dance like a white guy, but this was not the case. One positive note was that I could finally sing one of Reiko’s favourite Disney songs: “Under the Sea”.
For many good reasons, we didn’t record any of our performances, but it was still fun to choose the different songs and let loose for a few hours. I think the only song I did even remotely well was Sinatra’s “Fly Me to the Moon”. It’s just not the same when you’re singing along with a CD or radio because you can hear the actual artist and so a poor personal performance is partially masked ![]()
I’m sure this won’t be the last time that Reiko and I karaoke together, and that’s great news … for me. One of the things I might enjoy trying is the public karaoke. This way I can terrorize a broader audience.
I’ll add more to this in a bit. Dinner’s ready, and it looks like Reiko made some great omlettes.
Ja ne,
