Acoustic Original - "Grace" by Alex Pavia

[AnDsaxplayer]

I find these lyrics to be perfect with how I feel right now. And I'd love to play and sing this for someone, but sadly I don't want to take the time to learn the guitar by ear. So i'll probably give her a link to this video and then she can just hear you sing and know it's how I feel. It'd be cool if people would vote this up so she can see! :D

[adamjenson4500]

is your music really necessary when there are millions other people writing the exact same music

[jesuslovesmebetter]

nice two chords you're playing :) 4 in all it sounds like, but you made it sound good.

[srsfiter]

Go on american idol next season

[CJandthebreakfast]

Very nicely done.

[Diegohs7]

[davidcimo]

eres español??

[dillemabass]

amazing

[FredDwashere]

Your music rocks. I love your voice ( Btw username's a joke I'm a girl)Once again: I love this song!

[cantstopfalling]

Deffinately agree, that you are super talented...

Try opening your throat a bit more (it kinda feels like yawning while you are singing)... Then breathe deep from your stomach... push your diapragm (the muscle under your lungs) down and exhale without moving your shoulders... With practice, you will build up that muscle and be able to control it better.

Can't wait to buy an album!

PS- Nice bedroom...

[alexpaviamusic]

cantstopfalling,

thank you! wow thats some good tips to work out that muscle, and I can work out while i watch tv or something hahaha. but really, thanks for the tips, i'm trying to get a better singing voice and you sound like you know what you're talking about :D

lol my room's always dirty...

[cantstopfalling]

Haha,

I'm a vocal major... so I guess I know a bit. :)

btw- awesome guitar skills, I started playing about six months ago... I sound.. uh, interesting... :S... lol

Anyways, glad I could help!

[akagamiyuwei15]

very good man.. i Love the song.. ^_^

[alexpaviamusic]

akagamiyuwei,

thanks so much, glad to hear you liked it!

[wizardofoz44]

[alexpaviamusic]

wizardofoz,

thank you! i'm really glad you like my voice :D

[BIGtodan]

good job man

[alexpaviamusic]

BIGtodan,

thanks man!

[ShortReprises]

You very talented with the guitar. All you need to do is learn how to sing from your gut and not through your nose, and you'll be set for the radio.

[alexpaviamusic]

ShortReprises,

yeah I'm not a great singer...and this vid was a year ago, so hopefully my newer videos are better.

[WittyTara]

This one should go on the radio, really.Nice voice :)

[alexpaviamusic]

thanks wittytara :)

[Emaginem]

This song should go on the radio!

[alexpaviamusic]

Emaginem,

[pidjoy]

[rmh4097]

Your an ass. This song is awesome.

[alexpaviamusic]

haha thanks rmh.

[rmh4097]

Oh hey, yeah man no prob. and by the way, I wasn't calling you an ass, it was a reply to another person who wrote a jerkish remark, and for some reason, it didn't go under his comment. And by the way, could I get your tabs?

[troytower]

THIS IS the kind of carp I never want to hear ever again. I had a roommate in collage who did this same sounding whining crap. I wish you and all the sappy I wanna get into your pants gurrrr,l why did you leave me kind of music would die DIE DIE DIEE and go away!!! FOREVER!~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just wanna fall asleep to your crappy fucking song NOT NOT !!! Get a fucking clue! Take a music class.

[minoreducation]

dude take a chill pill man its a song, if you don't like it don't listen to it. Simple as that.

[TallTominTX]

You obviously didn't learn to spell in college. Don't bother expressing your pathetic thoughts until you can do so without looking like an idiot.

[alexpaviamusic]

Hey man, if it's not your style of music then don't listen to it. No one made you listen to it, right? Sorry to hear that you didn't like it. What music do you like?

[jassongs]

nice chorus and coming back to the second verse transition...i like it!

Please hear my original by clicking on my username:)

[fenderbender149]

hey man this is awesome..i watched your vid on how to play it awesome..you should do more vids like that..like tears dont fall lol that would be awesome

[alexpaviamusic]

haha that song would take sooo long!

[blahnessly14]

haha why'd you wait?

you shouldn't be hiding this talent from the public my man.. people will find out sooner or later haha

[alexpaviamusic]

i hope so! haha i waited because I never had a camcorder.

[settertrend]

cAN i have the tab?if it's not a problem for you..

[backviewofyou]

[alexpaviamusic]

Budward,

haha you caught me right before I fell asleep and I wanted to reply now before I forget! Thanks man I feel great to have you subscribe, means a lot really. Thanks for the support and I hope I don't let you down with future vids!

Alex

[nerdyouare1]

I went through the same thing you did as far as getting the nerve. I had some unfortunate incidences in my college years and I quit playing for about 3 years. Then, my husband asked me to make a video and post it to see the responses. It has been a blessing. Know that you have a great gift and don't let anyone tell you any different. Keep writing and singing. Don't let it sit and squander away. Music is like putting a piece of you out there, being vulnerable. Thanks for sharing yourself with us

[alexpaviamusic]

nerdyouare1,

thanks so much, I'm really glad you liked the vid! and I'm happy you picked up the guitar again, especially after 3 years! I agree, music does make you vulnerable, but the rewards make it worth it! Thanks :)

[nerdyouare1]

I agree wholeheartedly! The rewards are the best part about it. Knowing that you could possibly reach someone who needed to hear those exact words at that exact time feels great. Thanks for your response and I look forward to more videos soon 8-)

[ashiesteggie]

Awesome man... I love it. Thanks for the invite. I hope you continue to sing and play and write music. You have a wonderful gift, and I personally think you are quite talented. I sing and play guitar as well and write a lot of my own songs, but you won't catch me posting them here. LoL, I'm too much of a chicken. :o) Good luck to you though!

[alexpaviamusic]

ashie,

thank you so much! aww i wish you would post yours here on youtube, i'd be way excited to hear your songs!  seriously tho, writing songs is one step to getting emotion out, and sharing the songs is another step thats worth taking. maybe you could take it somewhere great!

[xXxrawrxyeahxXx]

Funny how you've been in my favorites forever, yet I haven't heard this one yet. Well, I'm pretty sure I'll be hearing it quite a few times in the next few days.

You're great, and you know what? There's absolutely no reason for you to fear criticism. You're too good at what you do for that. No one can give you anything but constructive criticism, and I doubt there are many out there that can find something about you to criticise.

Good luck getting signed. Unless it's already happened?

[alexpaviamusic]

haha this was my first video! don't worry, a lot of great videos on YouTube go unnoticed, and i'm glad you like mine! thanks so much, i've been learning to take criticism as a good thing no matter how bad it may be haha. and no, i haven't been signed, but if i somehow were, that'd be awesome! until then it's just gonna be you, me, and youtube lol

[badzitrone]

this is real music :)

i really like how you put emotions into your songs!

this is really great!

[alexpaviamusic]

badzitrone,

thanks so much, i'm glad you liked it!!

alex

[blondie8832]

wow. you are so amazing.

this actually brought me to tears ; people dont make fun of me it reminds of me someone that i loved passed away]

and dont be scared of peoples criticism, follow your dreams,dont back away from them because of peoples opionions. by the way - do you have any concerts? even in theyre like in a park or something or mall?

[alexpaviamusic]

hey blondie,

k i know its been like a month, but somehow i just forgot to check the comments on this song! i'm so sorry!! it's good to hear that you liked this song! it means a lot that you do, really, thank you so so much!

and no, i haven't done any concerts really...i'm thinking about it, i'm just too shy :(

[hulixes]

bravo!!!!!! i like that music. really good singer

[chungag]

people who post assinnine comments are dicks and jealous

[musickgirl]

'Finally' got the nerve? Why did it take so long? This is amazing.

The only critique I have is your voice is quite nasally, so I would recommend talking to a voice coach and seeing how they would attempt to make it a little better. The song, however, I have nothing to say for - better than I could write. Maybe inspiring enough to post a few videos myself.

viel liebe

musickgirl

[Tarnishedblade]

[adscards81]

heck yea im interested this song is awesome

[alexpaviamusic]

ok ill work on those soon

[ThePruductions]

[alexpaviamusic]

yeah i totally agree

[goggalore004]

but then at the same time you feel dumb when people ask you because chances are its a real chord lol. Ive seen people use my "made up" chords and i always wonder wat its really called.

[guitarsoloist13]
