Hi Vanessa, Yep, it's scary hearing your own voice on a recording, but confidence grows the more you do it. You have a beautiful voice and the Aberfan poem came across so elequently and proffessional. Carol did an Abber track for me and it was great if we forgive several missing words. I thought she did very well and I can't wait for her to do her version of Dancing Queen. Hope you have a good weekend. love Darren. xxx -----Original Message----- From: vanessa - Email Address: qwerty1234567a@xxxxxxxxx Sent On: 10/06/2012 07:47 Sent To: GUIDE CHAT - Email Address: guide.chat@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [guide.chat] darren hi darren, i cannot sing, i can do poems, i wrote thousands and i went to a recording studio who recorded me on casette tape, i put the cassette tape in my tape recorder that has headphones, then i do my voice mail, the cassette is playing and it jogs my very very bad memory in case i forget the next line, thats how i did aberfan, i will do more when i have spare time and put some on forum, it is very scary for me and my friends on guide some are scared and some are confident, i am okay with someone else talking too, might improve confidence, our carol has bags of bubbly confidence, might swap a bar of chocolate for some of her confidence, carol sang abba for you, so i can get out of that one, plus my poem was aberfan. vanessa. -----Original Message----- From: Dazzling Darren - Email Address: darren.sunjay72@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent On: 06/06/2012 11:37 Sent To: qwerty1234567a@xxxxxxxxx, guide.chat@xxxxxxxxxxxxx - Email Address: qwerty1234567a@xxxxxxxxx, guide.chat@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: To Vanessa Hi Vanessa, very brave of you to post the voice memos. Very eloquent indeed. Aberfan was impressive. Do you do requests for singing. How about some classic Abber, I'm sure you'll be fantastic. love Darren. xxx -----Original Message----- From: vanessa - Email Address: qwerty1234567a@xxxxxxxxx Sent On: 06/06/2012 08:32 Sent To: GUIDE CHAT - Email Address: guide.chat@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [guide.chat] In Reply To: [guide.chat] please do us a voice memo i was brave doing the voice mail on skype as i had my friend on skype, there was two of us on voice mail, but the one on my own the aberfan one that was scary, yours was kewl with the beep beep horn. vanessa. -----Original Message----- From: Dazzling Darren - Email Address: darren.sunjay72@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent On: 06/06/2012 04:09 Sent To: vanessa - Email Address: qwerty1234567a@xxxxxxxxx Subject: In Reply To: [guide.chat] please do us a voice memo My hero! love Darren. xxx -----Original Message----- From: vanessa - Email Address: qwerty1234567a@xxxxxxxxx Sent On: 04/06/2012 12:14 Sent To: Dazzling Darren - Email Address: darren.sunjay72@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: In Reply To: [guide.chat] please do us a voice memo Hi Darren. i did it, scary too it was, sent you a few old ones when we did them on skype. vanessa. -----Original Message----- From: Dazzling Darren - Email Address: darren.sunjay72@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent On: 04/06/2012 05:40 Sent To: guide chat forum - Email Address: guide.chat@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [guide.chat] please do us a voice memo Hi Folks, Some of the recent voice memos have been brilliant giving us an idea of who sounds like what. Can more of you brave it and make a recording. I know it's a bit scary the first time, but give it a go, there's no need to feel embarrassed. look forward to hearing new voices. love Darren. xxx
