"Sleeping Sun" - Nightwish cover

Cover of "Sleeping Sun" from Nighwish's "Oceanborn" album

Thank you for watching and please let me know what you think! ^_^

Things I learned doing this song:
1) The top sits right in my passagio - which I knew, but love the song anyway!
2) AC makes for dry conditions, not conducive to successful high notes
3) Use my articulators more and my jaw less to enunciate
4) My breath control felt better; not as much shoulder movement, I think
5) As little camera is not particularly suited to high note frequencies, and neither is my USB mic, I need a better microphone! Time to start saving money -_-

@deejc245 Thank you so much!! <3 I see you did a cover as well and you are so right, it's a very hard song to sing! I also see that we have similar taste! "Lost" from The Unforgiving is one of my favorites off the new album too! ^_^
