New Songs? About Time!

I've posted a couple new songs over at MySpace -- "Give Me Strength", which I wrote many months ago, and "I Ask You Please", which I wrote about a month ago. They were both late night/early morning recordings done in one take with a basic desktop microphone, and include very limited production (so even for me, they're very low-quality). Basically, I just wanted to get recorded versions of a couple of my songs out there, no matter the quality (for now).

I also made a simultaneous audio/video recording of the Joshua Radin song, "Closer", on both my digital camera and computer. It was for an online contest, but I haven't finished putting the 2 together (the audio from my digital camera was very poor so I have to sync it with the computer recording).

Oh yes, and I recorded a new song based on lyrics I wrote during my English class at the University of Winnipeg in 1999 or 2000. Unfortunately, I decided to record this using the mono mic on my new mp3/video player, so the quality is ridiculously poor, even after an attempt at production (I was able to make the vocals sound much better, but the guitar is almost completely ruined). I may still post it up somewhere, but I haven't decided yet.

I realize nobody will likely READ this blog, but I figured I'd post it anyway, just in case anyone happened to come upon this page and was actually interested in such things.
