    Today I got to come home for lunch; no one was home so I watched music videos on UA-cam as I ate. Beth Hart then Joss Stone then Joss with Robbie Williams singing Angels which put a tear in my eye from shear enjoyment, then in the spirit of discovery I clicked on someone called Canen singing Ain't No Sunshine. Very nice, impressive, but this kid is 12yo in the video and I wonder what she might be like now with a bit more wear on her soul. So I look for something more recent hoping she's got a little bluesy 'cause that's what my old soul relates to and I click on He Sleeps Lightly...
    Devastated. I cried all the way through. Initially at the horror and because I am just so sorry that so many beautiful human beings suffer such cruelty. But later because I was so proud of you all finding a voice and speaking out. Rise up.
    So I find myself here. Looking good, sister. Liked, subscribed, gonna click on Smile; it seems appropriate.

    You have a masterful voice...mesmerising even.
    But ancient music history too eh ?
    Perhaps something to toy with then.
    The diatonic scale and half tones dont really fit the chromatic scales/spectrum too well.
    There was a much better fit of 3:5:4 semitones that belonged to 3 different ratio sets.
    These wavelengths and their octaves, were used for 'stretching the cord' and geometry/metrology (Earth measurement).
    Gb/A# -1 = 1000" wavelength (Optical Light x 2^25 = 990" ~ 495" @ 13,200"/s 7C is the eyes (cone/rod) optical table, or light speed / 2^24)
    A -1 =950"
    A#/Bb = 900"
    B -1 = 850"
    C 0 = 800"
    C#/Db = 755.5' "
    D 0 = 711.1' " @ 13,333"/s & 704" @ 13,200"/s (7C)
    D#/Eb 0 = 666.6' "
    E 0 = 633.3' "
    F 0 = 600 "
    F#/Gb 0 = 566.6' "
    G 0 = 533.3' "
    G#/Ab 0 = 500"

    Thanks so much for the update. I watch all kinds of American Idol. and Americas Got Talent, that sometimes an amazing person with a great voice will disappear and many people wonder where did they go? My gift was sports, but I had to train so hard to stay on top, it almost killed me. When I see someone like you who has a natural gift of singing, I am so jealous, LOL. I like R & B music the best, but like jazz too. I think you are perfect for jazz singing, but when you can sing, you probably can sing anything good. I will check on your videos some more, loved the Bill Withers song, I have had that CD for years.

It was her soundtrack as she went to sleep after a very stressful day.

  • @Flamethatburns
    @Flamethatburns 2 роки тому

    A tip would be to label yourself the name you plan to use and in parenthesis ( Formerly the artist Canen ), this way people who do not know you at all, can track you as you are now. Later, when your fan base grows, you can drop your former name. Another thing is don't stop using covers, remember that although Elvis sang over 300 songs, he never wrote a single one. Always research songs for popularity as well, if you are wanting to gain diverse fans. For instance, the most internationally sang song is the Girl from Ipanema, you should do your own haunting voice from the past, twist on it. Dont be afraid to contact pro artists to do a collaboration of songs with you. Artists like Postmodern Jukebox or Joe Bona masa maybe receptive to helping you.Everyone was a beginner at one time.
