There's nothing like a ward talent show to get one's blood pumping. This is the 2nd time I've put my self out there and honestly, I think it does get easier. Last year I sang "Rainbow Connection" with to awesome guitarist, Mike Gaulky & Jason Willoughby. It was fun to be the lead (well only) vocals of a band I felt pretty mediocre compared to their talent and wished I was their background music because that night those guys "tore it up". (guitarist lingo.)This year, there were no guitars, no Mike (his wife had just had a baby boy, Edward), BUT Jason composed an amazing song entitled, "Fire Right Though Me." The melody was beautifully layered and the lyrics were pure poetry. I felt totally honored when I was asked to sing one of his original songs and I hope I can get to sing more of them in the future. Here's a sample of the lyrics to Fire right Through me:
