Conan Song - by Kristin Plater

From my gig on May 10, 2007 in NYC.

Words and Music by Kristin Plater. All copyrights owned by Kristin Plater.

This song feels so good when I sing it. I wrote it a few years ago while I was watching Conan O'Brien on tv. That's why it's always referred to as the Conan song. It's not about him at all, but somehow the entire song poured out during one episode of the show. The song was inspired by my frustration. I was frustrated with the business of music. So frustrated that I put music to the side for a few years. But...I missed it like crazy because I've been a singer since I was 5 years old. So, it's sort of impossible to all of a sudden NOT be a singer anymore. If you listen to the lyrics...I think you'll hear the frustration. I think you'll get it.

This inspired me to write a song. Don't know if you care. I write anyway. But this made me stop what I was doing and get to writin. LOL My conspirator is working on the melody. We're a team. That's how it is.

I've been tellin ya, Kristin, get these songs on iTunes and we'll buy them. :)

Conan is over at 1:30 AM.

[kristinplater]

Yes, but for awhile, in Detroit...it didn't start until 1:30am and ended at 2:30am.

Okay, it's your song so it's whenever you watch it I guess. Can you write one about Triumph the insult dog too?

[kristinplater]

I can try, I think Adam Sandler would do a better job though. :)

You have impressive skill in singing/writing/performing. I finally stumbled upon actual talent on youtube! I hope you succeed in the music business, you're one of the few who deserves it, while a good portion of successful "artists" sell overproduced trash. Seems to me you would be the exception to that. Keep it up :)

Awesome... Thats the only word I could use to discribe you... Keep on singing. You should put this song on I-tunes so I can buy it. Im coming to New York, i'll have to check out one of your gig's.
