We recorded this in my living room when she was 19 and at the time had never had a voice lesson. She is disabled as am I but she earned a full ride scholarship at a college not far from home on her award winning Highshool instrument playing (she plays 7 of them). She is  now taking voice lessons and after only 2 semesters can sing Opera in 5 languages, as her professors say better than most people who have been in opera for 30 years.  I did the special effect with Magix music maker and another  cheap program I got for free. Please let me know what you think of both her and my work. I learned about computers to keep sane and since have also gotten into restoring old or damaged photos as a hobby. I was a carpenter for 28 years now I am a proud father.

I Dido Franz's comment, please consider revising to include your daughter. Disabilities are not to remain in the closet. She sounds very tallented.

Great job.

Sorry I forgot to put my daughters info but I have also posted her song, without the video.
  I was really just wanting to know what people thought of the video and it's effects and the like, rarther than the music itself, but here is her info. She hates having her picture used or even taken she thinks she is too fat.
   Her name is Sheena and is now attending college on a fullride scholarship as well as at least 6 more that I know of. She won these scholarships due to her instrument playing in High School where she won every contest the State of Oklahoma holds.  She recieved the largest scholaship in her colleges history.
   She is disabled, or as we prefer the term "really annoyed" rather than handicapped or disabled.
  She has a rare neurological disease that developed around the age or 10 or 12. She also has  Spinal Arthritis, 3 ruptured disks and Spina bifida. She suffers from severe pain from both Fibromyalgia and Myofascial pain disorder which affets her entire bodys nerve endings. All are progressive and dengernerative as well as an unknown a newly developed seizure disorder. Most of these were inhereted from both her mother and I  of which also have almost the same troubles except the Spina Bifida.
 Despite all this she is the most happy go lucky, outgoing positive personality of anyone your likely to ever meet. 
 She has an IQ of 166 also. She now,after only have singing lessons for 2 semesters, sings fluently in 6 languages by sight and plays (so far) 7 instuments.
 I will post her photos on my profile anyway ,because I am so proud of her and love her regardless of her weight and not wanting me to put her picture up anywhere.( which isn't all that much in my opinion anyway) Besides she is beautifull.

Your daughter is awesome. I had the privildege to see opera twice and trsut me I find her more dynamic and interesting. I can visulalise wars, love, sacrifice and all Roman and Greek tragic play elements in her voice. 

Salute to both her and the prpud father. Share more of ur work. 

Regards.
