@vmaninblackv you can't be serious... i have to dislike this one... pitch too high not organzed, its like anger rhythming. maybe I need to hear the itunes version
I didn't say I loved the recording quality of it... I meant it was my favorite of her original songs. And I'd still take it over ANY of the slickly manicured, auto-tuned nonsense that is out there today... even as is in this recording.
Great song except for the fact that you confuse Self-Esteem with Pride. The first originates from what you feel about yourself from your actions, the latter originates from what you feel other people think of your actions.
lovelovelove all your songs and lyrics. bought all three cds! woooo... i've been telling everyone about you since i started listening earlier this week! Come to canadaaaaa
I'll claim that candle that didn't get blown out therefore you don't have to worry about the birthday wishes of everyone since it would have counted ^^
Actually I ddn't want to have to say this.... But Byrn has a plan to go to america...
And catch you in his wedding sac.....
Just a warning, Look out for a Pretentious, Depressed, Drunk Scott with Blonde hair, a copy of hamlet in his back pocket and some cheep wine in his hand following you.
Okk, I won't be TOO broken if you don't marry me... But I don't have "syphilis" Or at least I hope I don't And just so everyone nows "LightsFadingEast" Aka Byrn is the leader of a clan that run about the Scottish countryside naked hurling abuse at sheep and setting fire to trees...... I promise.
Kina This is really good:) Did you write the lyrics as well as the music?? I have written a few songs myself but haven't really sung them since high school (a while ago lol!)) I could never actually WRITE the music down, but i had the melodies in my head, and i would sing them out on a tape and record them so I could remember them:)
haha. yeah i never write the music down either. much easier to keep it in your head :) and yes, i wrote the music and lyrics to this. thanks for writing!
OMG thank you so much for the HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! It meant a lot to me! Im happy to be 17 and i love your voice! (and Im pretty sure that my wishes will still come true... u did ur best lol)
hi kina! this is christina (from usc) although you probably know many. haha anyway, i just wanted to tell you that i remember listening to this song on your myspace in college..maybe junior year? and telling jason that i have it stuck in my head. haha i really like it and i was excited to see you play it again! seems like you're doing REALLY well..haha take care :)
hey kina:) congrats on the new song, always with grace and love:) thatz pretty cool that you have a show on May24 cause thatz my B-day...ne-way Ciao...suerte;)
Your amazing Kina! I love this song! It really shows your talent,your an incredible guitarist and your voice is incredble! Your awesome! I cant wait to have more money in my iTunes account! I am so buying all of your cds =]!
