Under julen har jag också gjort klart ytterligare två låtar som varit halvfärdiga ett tag. Känns bra. Troligen kommer åtminstone en av de här låtarna med på min nya demo-CD. Bara jag vågar spela in den. Ibland känns det som om jag inte har förutsättningarna för att kunna sjunga bra. Men jag vet och känner själv att det verkligen hänt saker med min sång den här hösten. Jag vill tro att när jag får negativa tankar är det tecken på att jag är för trött eller stressad. Dessutom har jag fortfarande rester av den förkylning jag fick tidigare den här månaden.
Så jag försöker se hoppfullt på 2008!
Gott Nytt År allihop!
You've surely heard of the old tale about Don Quijote, the knight who fought against windmills? This past autumn, I played a suite based on this tale with the string orchestra in my old home town, and that was when I first got the idea to write a song about a person fighting in vain in life like a Don Quijote. But it's not until now I've been able to develop the idea into a song which is now almost finished. It's called "Donna Quijote", because it's about a woman - me. All my life I've achieved and obeyed others to prove myself worthy of being loved, to live at all. Not until this autumn I've realized that I shouldn't have to fight like that - that it should be enough that I am who I am.
This Christmas I've also finished two other songs which have been half finished for a while. Feels good. Probably at least one of these songs will be on my new demo CD. If only I dare to record it. Sometimes it feels like I don't have the prerequisites to be able to sing well. But I know and feel myself that things have really happened to my singing this autumn. I want to believe that when I get negative thoughts, it's a sign that I'm too tired or stressed. Moreover, I still have some remainders of the cold I got earlier this month.
So I'm trying to look hopefully at 2008!
Happy New Year everyone!
