intoxicated

Warning: this is what prolonged singing of Halleluiah does to you!

Intoxication and insomnia...
Maybe it is the High,
Maybe it is the Ecstacy
Maybe it is the adrenalin rush
I swear I had trouble sleeping after last night's practise.
Expect a reprisal of sleep disruption on upcoming wed and sat
horrors! I still have to work the next morning.

loss of voice and scratchy throats....
Now just in case you succumb to the wear and tear that inevitably arise when you get caught up with high larynx singing, this is the concoction that I highly recommend.....serious, I am not making this up.

Go to Chinese Medical Hall:
Send someone to tell them that you have lost your voice.
You need
Black Bee, with Luo Han Guo

Then you boil the concoction to get some black gooey stuff, then you slurp it up diligently every few hours
Ta-da.....
You should get some semblance of your voice back after a day.

Must be that BLACK BEE.
Potent stuff.....

Remember to thank the wizard if it works OK??

****
Now how come there is no response as to whether people here like that youtube song, Mary did you know?
I actually proposed it to choir committee.
Now don't say that this wizard did not practise democracy and get voting approval here prior to opening big mouth.

Anyway, that is another intoxicating song.
I have listened to it so many times that I think I can drum it out on the piano by now.

If you ever want to see if your advertising works, make sure to test it out in front of KIDS.
Now my 4 year old nephew LOVES:
1. The Hallelujah Chorus
Serious, the REAL classical one that I listen to on my CD.
2. Mary, Did You Know on Youtube
"nice" said the young music critic
Unfortunately the other equally famous 'dies irea' from Mozart's Requiem did not make the cut.
"Don't like" said the young critic.
hmmmmm......
