And, of course, some of my favorites came into the room today to sing, along with some of my "favorites" (quotes intended). In fact, one of my true "favorites" walked in... Wearing some white, knitted (like out of qhite yarn!) one piece, sleeveless, backless creation... And I don't think she was wearing a bra either. She came to the piano, and put two pieces of paper, well, music in front of me. On the left was the song she had prepared, and on the right were some words and some letters - which turned out to be note names. Well...
"Oh... I heard you play this a little while ago. I don't have the music, but here are the notes and words. Do you mind playing that for me?"
-I was literally speechless. For a moment.
OK... Well, you should have brought your music with you if you wanted to sing the song.
"But I heard you wanted to hear high legit, so I changed my mind."
OK
-She was singing "Never" from On the Twentieth Century, and she was just singing the tag which consists of me playing the vamp three times then hitting the button. Easy enough. Well, she started. Then finished. Then finished again. Before I did. From what I could tell, since she couldn't hold out the notes, she just cut them in half and went on to the next pitch.
*And for those of you with good memories, this is my same "favorite" person who gave me an eight page song in loose sheets... Two days in a row... And then on the second day, while I was trying to arrange everything, she commented, "Come on. You should know it by now."
