Breaking Free (Piano Version)

I was able to summon the courage to try to do a full, live recording of me singing my "debut" cover song, "Breaking Free" from "High School Musical". Yes, I know, I know. You're probably wondering why it always has to be this song. Well, it means a lot to me on various levels. To me, it's more than "that song stupid song on HSM".

I learned to play this song in G minor but I figured I'd take it down a whole step and play it in F minor instead since I wasn't able to do a proper warm up. So you're actually seeing me play it in G minor but my trusty piano plays it in F minor.

It's a pretty rough effort to me. My most obvious error would be the beginning of the second pre-chorus. Ah, well. It's my first, complete, pause-free run of the song so I still haven't gotten used to it. Besides, this is the first time for me to be doing something like this so my hands were shaking from the nerves and I thought my voice would crack any minute.

So, yeah... I hope YouTube land will be forgiving of a first-timer.

Hey there, Brandon! Thanks!

This is another arrangement I found. I added my own touch to it as I merged the two arrangements.

Uh, Do you have a problem with me putting up the sheet music for this song that you made with those scans I sent you? I can't change the "JP" thing. But, I don't think anyone will think anything of it. It would be nice because people keep asking me. Alright reply soon!
