  3. This is so frustraiting because i thaught i posted something really really funny but when i came back it wasnt here so damn =(, but wow, i hope my vocal cords dont bleed, the same thing happened to corey taylor of slipknot and like 503002040606983984826787 different singers who have no significance in my life. but i think the lesson of this story is to realize that u need to keep up with ur proper signing habits, tool or not. you need to kicking ass and be all like yo, im a better singers than people because i work for it! i work everyday, sing more than any1, believe in your dreams kiddies, your young now, ur dreams will sore, im mumbling on, i shall continue. Steve Tyler in my opinion is one of the greatest big mouthed singers to ever live. I have great respect for him and what aerosmith did for music. they really changed alot. not only were they amazing musicans but they were also good marketing and buisness men atthe same time. There are some musicians like justin beiber (idk for a fact buttt....) who get thrown songs and is told to sing it a cetrain way. that annoys me, i love musicans who write their own stuff, and feel the soul and heart of the song every time it is practiced or preformed. it is what makes me want to become a musican for the rest of my life. to drive and work harder than anyone i know to be on top. and this video made me realize i need to take care of myself as a singer. thank you for the post mel. I finished buble. see u wednesday.. btw take zero is less than 50 fans away from 1000.. PAAAAAAARRRRRRRRTTTTTTTAAAAAYYYYYYY... YAY I POSTED ON THE BLOG
