Sunday Singalong: Pumpkin, Pumpkin

October 2, 2011

For someone who isn’t the biggest fan of Halloween, I sure have written enough songs to make it appear otherwise! This is one of my older tunes — it’s been around for a few years, but I still like to pull it out from time to time. It seems to be pumpkin weekend here on [...]

Sunday Singalong: The Scarecrow Song

September 25, 2011

Singing this song always puts a smile on my face, because it reminds me of one of my former students at The Hope Institute who absolutely LOVED it. He got such a kick out of singing it and finding each body part as it was mentioned in the song! It’s fun to pull out all [...]

Sunday Singalong: Fall Into Fall

September 18, 2011

Fall officially begins on Friday, and I’ll tell you what: I’m going into it kicking and screaming. But it’s going to keep getting darker earlier and chillier whether I like it or not, so I might as well just accept it. I wrote “Fall Into Fall” almost three years ago, maybe I’ll come to terms [...]

Sunday Singalong: Remembering 9/11

September 11, 2011

On September 11, 2001, I was getting ready for my first class of the day when I heard the news on the Today Show, just as it was happening. I watched as the second plane hit the Word Trade Center, and then I went to class. The rest of that day is a blur; all [...]

Sunday Singalong: The September Song

September 4, 2011

I recorded this video yesterday, when the temperature was in fact pushing 100 degrees. Today, however, feels much more like September. This week’s forecast is full of days like today, and as nice as it is outside, I’m sad to see summer come to an end. One of my friends posted on Facebook the other [...]

Sunday Singalong: Greyson Chance

August 28, 2011

Greyson Chance is the “it” boy of the moment, if you ask just about any of the tween and teen girls in my studio. I first learned of him when he made it big performing the Lady Gaga song Paparazzi on the Ellen Degeneres show, but didn’t hear his name again after that…until I was [...]

Sunday Singalong: The Lazy Song

August 21, 2011

After sharing the lead sheet and chords for my adapted version of “The Lazy Song” last week at Listen & Learn Plus, I’ve had this song on the brain. I suppose it’s fitting, considering I’ve been on vacation since August 5 and gotten a little too used to living the lazy life! Every time I [...]

The Best of Sunday Singalong

August 14, 2011

Now that I’ve made somewhere around 60 Sunday Singalong videos, I figured it’s about time to make a list of my favorites — the “best of” if you will. The very first Sunday Singalong video I ever posted was way back in January of 2010. I recorded it with my old Macbook’s built-in camera, so [...]

Sunday Singalong: Anyone Else But You

August 7, 2011

I have no idea how I did it, but three years ago I convinced my husband to record a duet for the souvenir CD we made for our wedding gifts. We had seen the movie Juno the year before and both loved it, especially the sweet duet Michael Cera and Ellen Page sang at the [...]

Sunday Singalong: Three is a Magic Number

July 31, 2011

I don’t know what it is about these Schoolhouse Rock songs, but they’ve just been invading my head lately! Two in one summer, sheesh. (Here’s the first video, from a few weeks back.) But it’s true, what I said in the video — I’m reminded of this song each time a couple I know has [...]

Sunday Singalong: The Crawdad Song

July 24, 2011

I have one of my former classrooms at The Hope Institute for introducing me to this song. They had heard it on a children’s CD and asked if I could sing it during music therapy, and I happily obliged. I don’t really have a whole lot to say about this song — other than what [...]

Sunday Singalong: Angry Birds Theme

July 17, 2011

Recently my almost-three-year-old nephew and I were sitting together in the backseat of the car. I had my iPhone out, and he asked if we could play Angry Birds. So I opened the app and handed the phone over to him, at which point he asked me (ok, ordered me) to “turn on the music!”. [...]

Sunday Singalong: Vocal Warm-Ups

July 10, 2011

After having taken over 10 years of voice lessons (including studying as a voice major in college) and teaching voice lessons myself for the past 8 years, I’ve learned a few vocal warm-ups in my time. I could probably have gone on for another hour, but I decided to spare you of that and just [...]

Sunday Singalong: A Schoolhouse Rock Favorite

July 3, 2011

Little did I know when I was performing this song in my school musical as a junior in high school that I would still be singing it 11 years later. No wonder Schoolhouse Rock was such a popular cartoon back in its day! It was before my time, but it’s fun to watch the YouTube [...]
