Nothing like playing your uke at a whisper (while whispering) in the night with the window open during a little rain.

Lyrics:
"I don't know what my dreams will be
and I'm drifting off for eternity
I don't know what's wrong or right
in a dream
I don't know what my dreams will be
and I'm drifting off for eternity
I don't know if I'll live or die
in a dream"

Played on a Ohana Solid Mahogany tenor, model TK-35G with Fremont Blacklines - High G

I say Rough Draft/Idea because with my limited recording and editing equipment, I can't really do what I'd like. And also since I never sing or speak while playing for the most part it is difficult to get back into it, so full of mistakes and blah blah and so forth. I thought the whispering might be a good way of avoiding singing, but lets call it "creative"

So tell me what you think.

All photographs are mine, some crap I had laying around from a few years ago, sorry for the muddy colors, color space for windows movie maker is sRGB (or worse, I'm not even sure) and everything got muddy'd up.

I know when you see the word "rough", that your mind instantly compares it to Lil B, since his music is so rough and crappy. But this is a rough DRAFT/IDEA, submitted for people to give advice on. I know you're perfect at everything though and you never need advice. Oh wait, you live in your mothers basement and your only skill is unicycling, which won't get you far. Thanks for watching! =)
