LOL ! Exactly. And having no shame about the quality or not of one's singing voice is bad too. Strange how we need to project our own shortcomings onto others and try and keep them down in shame. Shame's a good power tool, though, for keeping others subdued. >Join me? > >Do I hear you sing Amanda? Harsha sang for us on a voice recording on the net some time ago. It was great hearing him sing, even though he rated his voice less than average. He would join our singing. I used to hate the concept of the Spice Girls, but now I see the charm and beauty in them. This is from one of their songs: "Viva Forever" Do you still remember how we used to be Feeling together, believe in whatever My love has said to me Both of us were dreamers Young love in the sun Felt like my Saviour, my spirit i gave you We'd only just begun Hasta maqana, Always be mine Viva Forever, Ill be waiting Everlasting, like the sun Live forever, for the moment Ever searching for the sun But we're all alone now, was it just a dream Feelings unfold, they will never be sold And the secret's safe with me Hasta maqana, Always be mine Viva forever, Ill be waiting Everlasting, like the sun Live forever for the moment Ever searching for the sun Love, A.
