My cousin Michael has been playing piano a lot for us lately. He doesn't really mess with any of the classical works. His taste is more in Broadway. And, occasionally, Disney. He is in 8th grade, and has been playing for years. We used to play together, back when I played piano. I never really got beyond My Heart Will Go On, and Cannon in D. He has by far surpassed me. And he can sing.
In February, when Terri and I came up to DC for Powershift, my Nana, Pap, and Michael came down to see us. While he was there he played Colors of the Wind. Terri really liked it, and I remember her telling me something to the effect that you could really hear his soul in it, and it didn't matter if he sounded really that good or not.
So I had him play Colors of the Wind this time...and I recorded it and will post it on here later.
But for now he has been working on River Flows In You by Yiruma.
It is beautiful.

It's beautiful.
One of those songs that really grips your attention, and sends a flurry of images racing through your mind. One of those wordless songs in which you can really hear the story.

BUNS! I can't wait to hear him! I like him so so much!
Also, I did like that song, despite the lack of tears.
callllll meeeeeeeeeeeee. :( angst.
clearly I called you, so you better stop crying.
Hm, whenever you said it on the phone you seemed less enthusiastic about the song.
i was clearly in distress when you called.
