Many years ago a friend of mine (who is a dear friend still) said that although I had a certain talent, she doubted that I would sell my work. It was discouraging, but I never stopped trying because of the love and drive I had for what I was doing. It took quite a few years and a lot of talent development, but now I have a gallery that shows my work regularly. It's satisfying to my soul. By the way, the measured and thoughtful way you speak English is engaging. Thank you for the reaction and comments.
What you shared was profound, and so true. I hope the young people out there who hear your message take it to heart, so that they can embrace what is magical within them.
Ah, this is baby PTX. They did this cover after being dropped by their record label. They have been together for about a decade now. Their newest album, which dropped last Friday, tells their story. Enjoy. It's all originals.
They are just so engaging and you can't help but to sing along! They are, as you said, amazing in so many ways.. and they are an inspiration to us all.
I love your reactions! It is beautiful to see where the song takes you. Thank you for being vulnerable enough to give us a little insight into your heart. That takes courage.
“Yeah, they are just perfect.” I concur! How I wish I could take voice lessons from you! Your encouraging attitude must be so valuable to your students. I am enjoying your reactions so much. I hope you get around to reacting to PTX “say something“ and “gold“. If you find you want to react to something different, please react to Morgan James singing “ain’t no way“ live. Her voice is unbelievable in many many ways.
Thanks for the pep talk. It's something we all need to hear every so often. We all have a unique gift to share with the world, and it is our responsibility to do do. My talent is not artistic, but I have a gift for explaining complex financial matters to people so they can make informed decisions that will affect their lives. Not an artistic talent in the true sense of the word, but over my career, I've helped a lot of people, and that has brought me great satisfaction.
PTX is a great example of your story, they proved they were talented, won Season 3 of The Sing Off. $200,000 and a record deal,dropped the first day in L.A by Sony because "There is no market for acaplela." 3 grammys and 10 years later they are a top rated group and sellout concerts world wide. So much for the opinion of others. Be you, the original you, and people will find the truth of your joy in what you do.
When people are jealous of you they will try to bring you down and deny your talents. You must do your very best to prove these people wrong. The lack of vision resides with them and not you.
I love to "try" to sing along with Dimash when I am busy in the kitchen. I feel sorry for my young children and neighbours. But it makes me happy 😅 Your thoughts are interesting I have always felt like I could never sing infront of anyone. I have no real desire to either. 😁 Good luck with your filming, I haven't seen any of your work. Can you recommend something to watch?
