I'm a 21 year old with a blue guitar.

Rambling and reaction videos (non-music) now relegated to my new channel: ReinaDelCidTalk
About Me:
 
Feel free to add me on Facebook.

So here are the answers to some commonly asked questions:

1. I live in a great city belonging to the United States.

2. I've been playing guitar since I was around 15 but haven't had much formal instruction.

3. I do not currently have a CD out but hope to obtain a record contract someday. I certainly intend to notify those on YT and on MySpace who wish to "keep tabs on me" when/if I do eventually record an album.

4. Often I'm asked something to the effect of, "Do your original songs relate directly to you and your experiences?" This is a great question. Some of them do, but many of them do not. I usually won't discuss in detail real life events that are the basis for my songs so as to effectively allow room for interpretation by listeners (which is ultimately the most important thing, right?).

5. I do have a MySpace, and I probably want you as a friend. The link to my MySpace is down toward the bottom of this box. On my MySpace you'll occasionally find songs that I haven't yet recorded for YouTube.

6. "Reina" is pronounced "RAY-nuh." (Unless you're a Spanish speaker - then it's more like "RRRRRAY-EE-nuh.")

7. A question I received often in many different forms is something to the effect of, "Why have you neglected to respond to my comment[s] and/or private message[s]?" I simply can't respond to every comment and message, or else I would become a spasming growth on the toe of YouTube and never leave my computer. I appreciate all constructive feedback and read everything I receive, but I regret that I don't always have time to reply.

And finally, thanks to all you amazing commenters, raters, subscribers, and silent viewers... support from strangers is really a phenomenal thing.

Reina... I don't know if you'd come as far as Ireland...but I am going to write to Ryan Tubridy the new top chat host here to ask him to get you over to sing on his show. I'm sure of it, you'd be a star here overnight. Talent as yours, cannot be allowed not to be a worldwide HIT...because you're "Phenomenal"!

Why oh why oh why are you not a star? But I guess you really are...you shine like the brightest one. You make beautiful music & rhyme & then add a beautiful voice...that sounds so nice...oh why oh why oh why aren't you a star? But you really are you keep on proving & proving & proving & proving again & again that you are!
