Taking a Lesson
>> Thursday, October 15, 2009
I'm loving these songs right now:
scarlett
And I'm taking a lesson from Ms. Scarlett Johansson. People often scoff when an actor "veers off" into the music world. From what I've heard, in Scarlett Johansson's case, her first album was not well-loved by the critics. That didn't stop her, and really, why should it have? If she loves to sing, she has to sing. I imagine that if she had quit singing after hearing the critiques of her first album, a little bit of her creative self would have died. And she would not have gone on to make the beautiful music I'm loving right now.
So, I'm going to do the same. Well, not perform duets with Pete Yorn. I'm going to worry less about what others may think or expect of me, and keep on doing what I need to do to ensure that all the little bits of myself stay alive and flourish. How about you?

I sing like a bull frog with a cold and with no sense of timing whatsoever.
However, you might just catch me clapping (very quietly) and - wait for it - swaying ever so slightly - if the moment overcomes....
:0D
Robyn, this is a good message for us all.
That is such a great message - and she doesn't sound that bad!
I love Scarlett Johansson. She's so sultry.
I agree with you on this post and also on your post about conversion.
Just be yourself. You're great. Don't worry about anybody else.
