The Freshman Experiment

   Oops. Don’t listen too closely to what I’m singing. I sang this way before we had it all written down and way before we sang it at Goodspeed so there are a few interesting “choices” made. Read Brian’s shitty sheet music instead!

   Thanks! What kind of recording device do you use to record Kait singing?

   :( why is my sheet music “shitty?”

   and i use a condenser mic and cubase…

   Dude. I have no idea. I really didn’t mean that. I have no idea how that ended up being in there. How weird! It’s not shitty at all of course. I was listening to the recording as I typed so perhaps it was a freudian slip???!! regarding something I did. I like your sheet music quite a lot. All apologies. I’m really baffled.

   if I weren’t singing “Crank That Soulja Boy” at my Spring Awakening audition, I’d totes use this song. I guess I’ll have to go with option 2 (youtube) instead? Yes? Good. I need something to procrastinate with now that my shows are over, and making a midi file of the accompaniment on Sibelius seems like the perfect thing! Yaay! Thanks guys!

   hmm…i’ll see if i get a chance to make a midi file and post it. would love to make your life easier. :)

   love from state college, pa…

   …I used these MIDI files as an excuse for why I didn’t watch Lost last night (in reality it’s because I haven’t seen the last three episodes! I’m a bad lost fan…)

   I tried to find a MIDI -> .mp3 converter thingy, but I was unsuccessful ):

   Using Finale there’s an option to save as an mp3 file. You click “save special” under the “File” menu and then “save as sound file” and choose “compressed mp3″ file.

   The song sounds really good! I wish I could use this in the upcoming concert I’m doing, but it’s already cast and in rehearsals. Oh, well, next time.

    Yeah. It’s hard. Both our bloggers are female so there’s definitely a feminine bent on this particular project…

    I love this song. I remember the times I felt this way when I was a freshman . . .this is a really cool project. So excited to watch it unfold!

    This is awesome, and yaay sheet music. I must say though, Kait, you have some vocal things you do in this recording that make you sound like Sarah McLaughlin.

    Anyway.. so far this is definitely my favorite song for this show(though I like them all).
