Info

I've been singing professionally for about 18 years now. I may not have a record deal yet, and even though that's part of my desire, I sing because it's in my heart, and I enjoy reaching out to others through my music. I also write songs, and i'm currently doing some co-writing with a few songwriters out of Nashville. As of now, I'll be in the studio in 2 weeks, recording my own CD, and also 2 songs will be released on a compilation CD. So far i've got 3 artists that are going to record some of the songs that i co-wrote. Yay!! :) I've sang all across Texas, opened a show for Miss America, and won a few awards, one being "New Horizon Star" of East Texas. This October, i'll be performing at the Riverfront in Nashville, with over 200 performers, at a benefit for the troops, so look for me there!! I guess you could say i'm just a small-town girl, praying for a chance, and hoping to make it big before i get too much older. ;)

    FORMER YUPPIE GURU AND RETURNING MUSICIAN, I HAVE NEVER SAID I DON'T MIND LOSING. I WOULD DIE TO WIN ANYTHING, EVEN A PARKING SPACE BATTLE!!!!!!

    BUT . . . I DID NOT FINISH DUE TO TECHNICAL PROBLEMS, AND THAT HAS KILLED ME.

    GOING FORWARD, I AM A FAN, BUT A FAN WITH NO VOTE, A DAMAGED MODEM, AND A WEEKEND BEFORE REPAIR.

    I KNOW THAT PLACING WOULD HAVE BEEN IMPOSSIBLE, SINCE IT IS OBVIOUS THAT MUSICNATION DOES NOT FAVOR RETRO.

    (I SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT OF THAT BEFORE I LEFT MUSIC FOR 19 YEARS.)

    BUT MY SOUND, WHEN I FIND IT, WILL ROCK. TO THOSE OF YOU LIKE JUGGERNAUT, AND OTHERS OFFENDED BY THE ARCHAIC AND MEANINGLESS DUNG PUT FORTH BEFORE YOU, SORRY. NEXT TIME, JUST CHANGE THE FREAKIN' CHANNEL!!!!! I HAVE RIGHTS, TOO!!
    (AND I AIN'T BAD LOOKIN--MY FEET STINK, THOUGH!!)

    AND I USED TO ROCK, BACK WHEN ROCK WAS FLOYD, PRIEST, ASIA, ZEP, G&R, TESLA, 'HAIR', AND NIRVANA, BUT I GOTTA COME INTO THE 21ST CENTURY LIKE ALL Y'ALL, SO I'M WORKING OUT WITH A BAND, AND WHEN I RETURN SOMEDAY AS A COMPETING ARTIST, I'LL KICK. WATCH OUT!! AND ENJOY IT!!

    IF I SHOULD WRITE SOMETHING ANY GOOD BETWEEN NOW AND FOREVER, I'LL ADD IT TO MY PLAYLIST AND LET YOU KNOW,

    AND TO THOSE WHO I BORED, I'M SORRY. CHANCES ARE YOU BORED ME.

    MY FAVORITE ARTIST OVERALL (JUST EDGING ME OUT): DAVID WHEELER. I THINK HE IS BETTER THAN LOU REED!!!

    GOD BLESS, AND DON'T FORGET WILD BILL AUSTIN. I WILL RISE FROM THE ASHES AGAIN SOME DAY, AND, NO, THIS IS NOT DRAMA.

    IT'S COMEDY!!!!!!!! . > )

    i'd really appreciate yer opinion on this new song of mine darlin' !

    " All This Must Be "

    I sit down by the river
    Tears fill my eyes
    A skipping stone only leaves a ripple, and
    All that lives is meant to die....

    I search for an answer in my heart
    Sometimes when i'm dreaming...

    I'm watching the mountains crumble into the sea
    Something inside tells me
    All this must be....

    I'm all out of questions
    And finally free
    Still open to suggestions on the way
    Oh, what did she say to me ?

    I search for an answer in my heart
    Sometimes when i'm dreaming...

    Hiding and seeking , the stars play all night
    Beauty unfettered by our wrongs and rights
    I'm waiting for answers , like lyrics to me
    Something inside tells me, All This Must Be....

    And i know deep in my heart
    That we all must play a part....

    ohhh ohohoh oh oh .........

    Hiding and seeking
    The stars play all night
    Beauty unfettered
    By our wrongs and rites
    I'm waiting for lyrics
    Like answers to me
    Something inside tells me
    "All This Must Be"

    So it's finally come. The last day of this interesting competition. One last time I want to thank any and all who sent a vote my way during this crazy ride. At this point I think pretty much anybody can make a run for the top 20 and I'm sure by the end of the day the right people will be where they should be. Although I don't quite agree with the way this competition was handled, I'm kind of glad it did go down this way. There may or may not have been cheating in the beginning, people can complain that they didn't come up in the head to head player as many times as others, some may even consider it rigged. The way I look at is this: this is a community for musicians to meet, build relationships, and interact with other musicians who share the same passion for music as you do. These competitions are meant to help artists get heard by the whole community and bring other people into the community. For that I am thankful. I have been a part of many online music sites where artists put up their music, look for reviews, acceptance, and fame, basically whatever they can get. This is the only place where I actually felt like part of a community. I know it may seem like i'm just beating a dead horse saying how much I love you guys night after night now, but I just want to make sure the community knows that after this competition is all said and done I will still be here and I will still be showing love to all of my friends that I can honestly say are a part of my life now, and I have Music Nation to thank for it. Sorry i'm taking up so much space in your comment box haha i'll shutup now. Anyway, i'll end with saying its been a pleasure, and I can't wait to see how this turns out!
