A walk down memolane…

I don’t know if you’ve heard of the website memolane.com, but you’ve probably noticed me frequently re-posting videos on the anniversaries of their releases (on Facebook.com/LindaHarrisonMusic). Now, I’m not some crazy person that is amazing with dates and just happens to remember I uploaded something a year ago, nor do I keep it in my diary as a day to celebrate! However, I have subscribed to Memolane and they send me daily emails that remind me of what I was doing on that date a year ago (or two/three/four years ago), for example here is the email I received yesterday:

Which means a year ago today I was performing at Media Camp Nottingham.

This reminded me that I uploaded a couple of clips from this performance, but for some reason I kept them private**. Anyway, I thought with it being a year ago that I recorded these video clips, today I should change them from private to public…so here is “Love Flu” from MCN4 2011:

**I do this with a lot of YouTube videos, before I upload any video I begin to believe it’s terrible and that I’m embarrassing myself. Most of the time I overcome the nerves and post the video anyway, but some stay behind closed doors for a long time (like the video above).

Who Knew 800 Views, Thank You!

Wow! It’s not been a full-week yet, but we’re nearly at 800 views (on the P!nk - Who Knew cover video). Thank you so much for watching and sharing! I’m trying to figure out a way to thank you; I think it should be a TinyChat session on www.LindaHarrisonMusic.com/members/chat - what do you reckon? Comment with day & time suggestions..I’m thinking Sunday evening/nights are quite good..?

Thank you, and please keep sharing and spreading the word :)

p.s. if you missed it - here is the “Starry Eyed” - Ellie Goulding cover video from a couple of weeks ago…

YouTube Comment of the Week

I often consider doing a “YouTube Comment of the Week.”

If I were to do one this week it would be this:

(written on my Sunday Morning cover I recorded when I was 16 http://youtu.be/PMPg58DrZkc)

What a great idea MrFluffySheeps! I’ll go sort that out now.

What have you been doing?

As planned, I’ve been writing and recording this month. Perhaps not as much as I wanted because my laptop had to go to the repair shop, and the repair company don’t want to give it back…anyway…

Last night I was working with the wonderful Josh Lally from a band called Deville - I highly recommend you check them out and click like on their page: http://www.facebook.com/thisisdeville (audio samples available on the bottom left of the linked page). 

Currently listening to a remix by Gary Wood of a song called “Signal” that I worked on with Dave Munday at the start of this year….it’s sounding very smart. I think you might be hearing it in the New Year.

Next week is filled with more writing and studio time, mixed with a couple of meetings. It’s all go. 

You can now request songs for me to perform/video very easily by going to http://www.youtube.com/thelindaharrison and entering your suggestions under the video player (if you add a link to the video it saves me a little time, so please do).

Much love to you all, and as always, thank you.

P.S. Watching my gorgeous friend Emily Grieve and Dita Von Teese at a show in London today (another person worth checking out Emily Grieve [model & singer] http://www.facebook.com/emily.alt.model).

thesixtyone comments

Just got a message telling my I had comments on my tracks on thesixtyone (please check out thesixtyone.com, it’s genius). Anyway, to get to the point, the commenters on thesixtyone leave such incredibly poetic comments - I love it!

Wounded: “yet adornment exists nonetheless this recognition complete in its expression adorned, as it were, with revelation with the ornamental rememberance of what is left when the tragedy leaves a scar, and a song title to bear its witness, the gaping tenuous truth: All Good Things Come To An End!”

Kryptonite: “Blow me away, pick me up, then fly me through the air. Strength in a voice like this should hold back storms and keep the lions at bay.”

LETS COMPARE THOSE TO YOUTUBE COMMENTS —— (for fun?)

Wounded: “cooool but one tiny question : r u EMO?? am not making fun but just ur style..looks good”

or: “you look like a drag-queen. and you sing a bit weird, but i can not say i don’t like it. :’)”

Kryptonite: “I hate to be one to bash on you for this, cause I do agree that you are quite the musician.. but don’t you find it a bit desperate to choose a name that is already a VERY popular 90s song?”

Interesting….

Thank you :)
