I meant the song "My Junk": Week 11

Monday we all got up and each sang through our Jazz Standard one more time. It went well, but as I was sitting down Jason asked me if I was nervous this time as opposed to last time singing the song. I replied that I'm pretty much always nervous to some degree when I get up and sing in the class. Jason suggested that a way to possibly combat nerves is to be even more prepared. And although that's probably not why I'm nervous, it's a good thing to do nonetheless. You can never be too prepared.

The end of class on Monday and all of class on Wednesday we began working on our second ensemble number. Also from Spring Awakening, the song "My Junk" is quite lovely. While it has a similar narrative to "Bitch of Living", it is far softer and more pleasant.

I'm just loving listening to the class sing the song over and over. It's even better to sing with them, which is a great sign. Next week we will continue to look at my junk (the song) and start working on what I believe is our final individual "audition" songs.
