F10 FOREVA.  
So I had to upgrade to Fedora 11 today to support Publican 1.0. T_T MORE TEARS WERE NEVER SHED OVER AN OPERATING SYSTEM. I am very sad. And probably destined to hate Fedora until another version hits.

Would just like to tell you all that Glee can suck my nonexistent cock. You call that Defying Gravity? PFFFHAH. I laugh in your general direction and mock your lack of diaphragmatic power. And your harmonies. What the fuck were those chords? Way to fucking baby down the song. And remove the climax. What were you thinking, Glee producers? Guys? No, it's a serious question - what the fuck?

Yeah. This would be 'annoy the neighbours' mode. Sorry for the loud night in, folks, but you do this to me Friday through Sunday, so I think you can bite me. :)

*hunts down* Woooow, the start was really out of time with the music.
mini!Idina and boy-who-is-gay-whose-name-I-don't-know have decent voices (lack of harmony aside), but I didn't buy that they were trying to defy gravity at all. =/ And it's one of those songs that you shouldn't try to tackle unless you're going to blow people out of the water with it, because then it just ends up sounding pathetic in comparison. Like when someone with a decent but weak voice tries to tackle an Evanescence song or something.

I maintain that if they wanted to sing something pretty with harmonies, they should have sung 'Shiz'.

Pretty much. I just sort of went :\ at the whole affair. (Well, okay, I raved about pregnant breathing. THEN I went :\.)

And then I went around singing it at the top of my lungs and the bottom of my diaphragm. >:\ UR DOIN IT WRONG.

(And the gay boy's name is Kurt. Why do I know this? I blame Chira.)

It's almost like no one gets taught proper breathing any more. >=| What are any of these teachers thinking? I guess we're just lucky we had a tutor who was an opera singer, where it is the difference between life and death. (I think Natalie only sung a bit of opera when I was doing solo lessons, but fffffffOMFG, if she were in concert I would pay to see it a million times over!)
Their airy breathing made sense if it was like "...yeah, I was thinking, I guess I'll try defying gravity. Haven't really got anything better to do, so I might as well try defying gravity."

*nodnod* That does ring a bell. And I don't even care what mini!Idina's name is. XD Mini!Idina is mini!Idina.

Which astounds me, because man, I was taught that in choir in grade three. It's not exactly rocket science, although from the number of people who just didn't get it, I suppose it must be close. I know it's hard to get back to when I've failed to breathe properly for so many years!

I have no idea what her name is. XD

That was the first thing I learnt in my flute lessons, too, before I was even able to hold my instrument for the first time! Then again, same thing, the kids I've seen playing recently have all had the huge HEAVING shoulders while they're playing. It does make a huge difference with an instrument like that, too. I remember playing a while ago and thinking "Geez, why is my sound so terrible today?" and then I realised I wasn't breathing properly, and problem solved!

It's mini!Idina. XD
