Nine Inch Nails and E.E. Cummings. Bloody well-done.

@thepoetryof

I've been reading just the funniest things on youtube today... and the rest of them I could sort of see coming and it would something I would be thinking.

But I must say that you take the cake for the most original and *funny* comment I've read all day.

Goodness, I'm not even done watching the video yet, but every time I hear the guys voice I think of Nine Inch Nails now. hahahahhahah

[someone716]

i like the girl's voice so much... the guy sounds like he's just reading it through some kind of.... well it sounds like a phone call to a radio show

[TheGrammarian]

@someone716 There were some issues with my husbands recording equipment, yeah. Glad you liked it, all the same.

e.e. Cummings

My favorite poet-

This poem is classic yet he does do it in a very different way than most of his poetry- An idol of mine forever-

By the way I write and sing go to my channel to view it, thanks- jm

this is my favourite poem (=

[makesoapandsleep]

Oh my, I went to hear your stuff and have a laugh, Yeah this is ee, I know, but I'm headed out now, but later I'm going to show these to my friends and we are going to drink and rip up your vids because we are losers with nothing better to do.

[odasoup]

OMG this is so nice!!!

[imagine9384]

You know cummings wrote this poem to his love.

Not as two people speaking to each other.

I would like to hear just you reciting this: as cummings meant it to be.

Please dont take this as criticism, I realise this is a poem special to you and your fiance.

I have listened to your other recitals and they are beautiful. Please read this one as it was meant to be read

[TheGrammarian]

You make a valid criticism. I will consider it. Thanks!

[stevensavio]

@imagine9384 Anyone is allowed their own interpretation of a poem when reciting it. It is not necessary for a speaker to recite a poem exactly the way the writer would. In fact, most people encourage others to have their own unique voice and not to mimic someone else's style / way of reciting. Please don't take this as criticism. You were right about the writers intent-- HOWEVER-- Please do not discourage people from reciting in a way that is unique and their own.

[BatWingedKitty]

Wow!! This is REALLY good.

I love the way the readers said the words. Good pace, and I really like that they did two different voices for the parts.

Bravo!

[TheGrammarian]

Thank you! That is me and my fiance. This poem is very significant to our relationship. =)
