Edit:  Here's the song.  Apologies to Irving Berlin.  http://dracoandginny.com/persephone33/auditionsong.mp3

I've really only wanted a part this badly ONCE before.  It did not go well, as I still have not played Maggie in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.  Good thoughts, huh, f-list?  I'm not usually needy, but the good vibes will go a LOOOOONG way.

Why not record the song and get some critiques? Or, more likely, lavish praise.

How would I go about posting it once I recorded it?

[mynuet.livejournal.com]

Upload it? Or send it to me.

Done. Hmph. Can't decide if that's suicidal or narcissistic or a lovely brisk blend of both.

Think of it as taking an opinion poll.

Check A if I suck.

Check B if it makes your ears bleed.

Check C if you don't want to vomit after...

odeo.com (http://odeo.com) for free uploading. :D

(I use it to record stuff, too)

Myn uploaded it, but thank you! I'll certainly scribble that down for next time. One day I'll figure out how to do voice posts, too.
