The Singer by Michael Head - Eira

[bajjhb]

You have a very beautiful voice. I must say I could listen to you over and over again singing this song. I had no idea what this song was and then I watched you. I loved it. Keep up the fantastic work!

[eirulf]

@bajjhb Wow. Thank you! It makes me happy that you enjoyed it :)

[petitefleur24601]

Oh my god! I did this for my a level music practical and because of nerves and probably because i wasnt breathing properly i nearly hyperventilated after singing this!!! Very difficult but i have to say you did a much much better better job than i did!!!!!! love this song and your pure talent!!!! im very jealous!!!!

Michael head was my teacher and dear friend at the Royal Academy of Music in the70's.  I think that he would have loved your performance, I do. If you would like to know more about Michael I would be happy to share memories with you.

[eirulf]

Thank you so much :) Yes, I would very much like to get to know more about Michael Head and his music - can't wait ;) Must have been fantastic to be his student. X Eira

I LOVE how you did this song! It sounds so Irish and it goes GREAT with your voice. Im doing this for recital and you gave me inspiration to make this song my own like you did. Wonderful!!! Dont stop singing!!!! ^.^

[lizzyreid1989]

Beautiful! I've heard a few professional recordings of this one and haven't heard it better- very emotive performance :)

[eirulf]

Thank you :) I see you live in UK: It's my dream to study there one day! Cool that you sing musical songs ;)

[lizzyreid1989]

Yeah :) I don't sing many musical songs, just they're the only ones that get recorded :P

I'm preparing The Singer for a recital I've got next week!

[eirulf]

Great! Good luck :)

[ilovefirewood]

The room has a bad delay- but you still sound good!

[eirulf]

Thank you! :)

[renethel]

Wow, your timbre is crystal clear, yet like pure honey. This one of the best renditions I've heard, thus far. :D

Please keep singing. You can make it big!

I might take a crack at this song, too, if I ever find the sheet music.

[eirulf]

Thank you :) Listened to some of your vids - you've got a beautiful voice! You must keep singing, too!

[renethel]

Aw, thank you!

[eirulf]

Have you found the sheet music, btw?

[renethel]

I don't know where to. :(

[courtneyylewis]

Hm, where are you from?? I mean, like you don't sound or look like you are from America. I really liked this. It gave me some ideas for my solo. Though, I am not quite the actress you are, but thank you for posting this! It's WAY better than the other people who have this song posted! Thanks!

[eirulf]

Hello! Thank you :)

I'm from Norway.

[thegeebomb]

In this and other videos you seem to consistently lean on your right leg more than your left. Ever break your right ankle?

Weird question I know :)

[beccatrmpt]

i hate you for getting that A(b?) soo much better than me

Very pure..but still has a lot of richness and colour

very very good balance in this one m'dear. you'll go far

[1032777]

wow, this is great!

I want to take this to a contest this year as a junior, my teacher says not to do it because I am a junior and not a senior, the swears theres a huge difference in our voices...but it would be hard for you to help me since you havent heard me. but any advice anyway?

[eirulf]

Thank you very much :) Wish you all the best in the competition!

[SamanthaIsFuzzy]

Yeah, I'm singing this one in my voice lessons this year.

[SamanthaIsFuzzy]

You need a little work on the rhythms, but you have a great tone. Good work!

[eirulf]

Thank you :) I agree. Do you also sing this song?
