Update: Okay, can people just shut up about the whole Edgar versus Debney versus half the other writers in the world thing? This video does not contain a rant about 10 reasons Poe is the author of this particular poem. It is my personal and knowledgeable opinion that he wrote it, let's leave it at that, because really...NO ONE CARES!
Do not argue with me, do not comment on how I'm soo wrong, because I'm sick of it filling my comment box.
Know when to give up.

This is the poem Come Little Children written by Edgar Allan Poe, and put into song form by means of the famous excerpt in Hocus Pocus. I have always loved that little portion in the movie, so when I discovered the rest of the poem, I just had to do a cover of it.
The picture is me, the vocals are mine.
I do hope you enjoy this, and please leave comments. ^^

I also do requests.

That water that people seem to be bringing up is actually my fishtank. It's a 75gal saltwater aquarium. No escaping it. XD
Many people have been asking for the lyrics, so here they are.
Also, I will be posting a link for this as an Mp3 as soon as I get my personal computer up and running. Should be only a couple of days.

Come little children
I'll take thee away
Into a land of enchantment
Come little children
The time's come to play
Here in my garden of magic

Follow sweet children
I'll show thee the way
Through all the pain and the sorrows
Weep not poor children
For life is this way
Murdering beauty and passions

Hush now dear children
It must be this way
Too weary of life and deceptions
Rest now my children
For soon we'll away
Into the calm and the quiet

Come little children
I'll take thee away
Into a land of enchantment
Come little children
The time's come to play
Here in my garden of shadows.

Thank you to all of the people that sent me lyrics to the other version of this song. Trust that I am working on a truly full version, I just want to make it perfect.

  • You have a very nice voice, it's very soothing, but I have some tips for your singing, especially since you record. Lighten up your consonances. You "ch"es and "t"s and "s"s, they alll have a very strong, heavy sound, and it can be overbearing when they're over-annuciated when you sing. Work on drawing out your vowels, and shortening your consonances as much as possible.

  • I'm very much aware of this fault I have, but it is unavoidable. I do it even when I speak, it is simply how my teeth are set up.

  • @KaoruX2813 Its not unavoidable. I agree with mindersifyable that your voice is quite beautiful, but in the singing world we have a word that makes an exception to any mistakes anyone makes and that is called improvisation. I don't know if this is for your own personal enjoyment but if you ever plan to audition and they ask you lighten up on your consonances, if you can't do it, they won't cast you. That's just the way it is. Please look into this and fix it because your voice can take you far

  • I have no interest in pursuing a singing career. To lighten up my consonants alters the tone and style with which I am singing, albeit slightly. I am already highly critical of what I post here, which is made quite clear with only five videos of me singing when I record daily. People judge my talent based on this song alone, and find because they enjoy it my voice will "take me far" as you have said. It is foolish.

  • Another thing I must point out is this is the first song I've ever recorded with the intent of uploading. It is several years old and that of course means old software, and old recording tools. The effect I placed on this video only furthers the strength in my consonants, and if one were to view my other videos they would see that while the strength is still present, it is not quite so harsh.

  • why is

    learn to be lonely - gaara

    a featured video?? O.o

  • That is a very good question, to which I do not have the answer.

  • Of what I can hear, I love your voice <3

  • I think bookofshadows did it best u r in third place great job

  • Take not the Doomed interpretations of the Envious...Mystical and Hypnotic like intended by the Dark Poet

  • You have a beautiful voice and are very beautiful. This is one of the best covers of this awesome and creepy songs that I have been able to find

  • @MinatoFanGirl Maybe because you like Naruto and that is why. Sometimes when you watch certain videos, Youtube will reccomend some videos that you might just like, on the featured videos. Hope that kind of cleared it up... p.s. I love Gaara and Minato... they are some of my favorite characters ^_^ I am an big anime fan hehe, guilty is charged :D

  • i think it sounds really good i like it u have got a perrty voice dont let any one tell u any diffenent.

  • This is amazing! I love it!

  • is it weird that im making tentative plans to sing this to my kids (or least have it on a player) when i eventually have them?

    my kids are gonna be emo. *sigh*
