Point of order: if Mina is back on the site there’s a Netflix show she needs to watch before she has time to judge a singing competition…

I was going to record one today but then I sang too much in the shower and my upper register is shot for the evening. I'll try tomorrow.

Not one but TWO songs I was considering auditioning with were on the 2014 Billboard Top 100, so let's go there first.

I considered Wrecking Ball but figured a lot of people would choose it. I also recorded Habits and Chandelier but they weren't as good.

*records 2-hour-long version of "It's A Small World After All"*

Oh good because I’m recovering from an illness and my voice is only at 70%.

In under the wire!

Full disclosure, I sang the first half of the song, took a break, and then recorded the second half. Normally I would not do this, but I keep breaking into coughing fits so that's the best I can do.

"Aw, missed winning by a narrow margin two weeks in a row."

*listens to Lilith*

"Oh, right, that makes sense."

Excellent singing and excellent harmonizing.

I briefly considered "Can You Feel The Love Tonight?" so that would have been yet another Lion King.

Everybody should read this Twitter thread:

That all makes sense and tbh I have no intention of splicing any future songs; if it hadn't been for an unfortunately-timed illness it would have been one continuous take like the melody lines on all my other submissions. (Harmony parts I have no regrets about punching in and out because no fucking way am I gonna sit silent through the whole song while recording just so I can sing three notes on the chorus.)

I keep getting terrible coughs like the day before I plan to record. I'll see what I can hammer out tonight.

I actually am gonna ask for that extension.

I'm sorry, I would like some clarification re: judges comments, particularly Judge 2. I'm not sure how my song choice can be both safe and a mismatch at the same time. Last season I also got criticism for choosing "safe" songs and getting the same critique for a genre I don't normally sing is confusing. At this point I genuinely do not understand what would be considered "good" song choice.

I want to be upset about continually missing first by a small margin but every time I listen to the winning track and am amazed that the margin wasn't higher.
