There Really is something about having a camera pointing at you that screws us up..Even when I am alone the camera makes me nervous ..Great song by the way : )
Thanks, Rob. Recently I've found that the best way to trick myself into relaxing is by telling myself that I'll be filming a dozen takes and then choosing the best. This seems to take the pressure off for the first take.
Thats a great Idea Ian, As you know I like to Ramble on before I start a song....and it kills me to have to do that all over again..I guess I should learn Moviemaker so I could still add my original gab lol
It's easily done to combine separate clips in Moviemaker- that's what I had to do when we played "Buckets of Tears," but your approach comes across as being a more casual single take. You should probably just keep doing it your way, because it works!
I will start playing with movie maker. Many of my vids are third takes and I'm saying the same things for the third time..lol..Makes me mad. By the way your great version of Buckets of tears is featured on My Myspace page. (Link on my YouTube Channel Page) I hope you don't mind.
LOLOL !!! So true !!! Most times, I turn the camera on , play the song once and figure that's as good as it's gonna get , and I think it probably is. Great idea for a song !!
I can totally relate to this!! Thanks.

Ha! That "quilt" comment was posted by my girlfriend, in one of her brief fashion-critic moments.
