Me singing (cover) "One" by Three Dog Night

I did this because it is quite possibly my favorite song of all-time and the song I feel I sing best singing out of ANY other song. I kind of dramatized it because I felt it fit the song and I like to do things just a little bit different to keep it interesting. :)

fuck these nit picking assholes - you have a great voice, and I loved your skit - I really think you should try Sean-nós singing, and if you do please post!

[thewordthatpierces]

@dannyinaus Wow!!! Thank you!!! I really appreciate that!  I am happy you enjoyed it! :) I wasn't aware of what Sean-nos was until you brought it up, but I looked it up and I LOVE folk music from other countries, so, in the future, I'd very open to trying it. :D Might be a while, but its not out of realm of possibilities. :D

@wizardjokes Haha Why thank you! On both counts. :D i am glad you consider me a good sport, I try to be. :D I will definitely take your suggestions in to account in my performances in the future. :D

[wizardjokes]

@thewordthatpierces cool! You're a really great sport. :) For sure, keep trying different things! In this particular piece, I believe your voice and subtle gestures should be dramatic enough.. maybe some stylistic lighting + expressions..? If you go the skit route, loneliness is better portrayed without dialogue/monologue. Anyway, good work, and thanks!

@wizardjokes :) Thankyou for the constructive criticism! You are pretty spot-on about this performance! :D I'm not sure why i did this one the way I did, I suppose I was just experimenting with different styles. :) I always like to push things stylistically, and there are definitely times when I am more hit then miss, I have been planning on doing a less dramatic version of this for some time, I just haven't gotten to it b/c of request and stuff. I really do appreciate your comments!

[wizardjokes]

Follow-up to previous comment: it's just a friendly criticism regarding your presentation. Clearly, your voice and vocal ability are great.

[wizardjokes]

You have a very pretty voice, but the performance was over-dramatized. It would have been stronger in simplicity - without the act, especially since you decided to change the pace and the melody, already making it more melancholy than the original. The skit in the beginning doesn't captivate, and only diffuses any excitement or interest for the rest. (Also your sighing and spoken lines.) It's overkill and it removes any real sentiment.

@RiadhEgan Often times, reading descriptions are helpful. :D Its a dramatic interpretation. :)
