Oh my goodness!!! My video views had gone up from 400 to 25000 literally, over night... What!!!??? The world of internet is a very crazy place! And my myspace page, which I had completely forgotten about, had so many \"friend\'s requests\"...!\n\nThank you so very much for all of your lovely comments and messages. I read them ALL and of course my head was huge for a while until I spoke to my mum who brought me right back down to planet earth...haha:-0 But anyway, I really didn\'t expect this reaction from you all, it was just a quick video I did very geekishly to test out my new web-cam! (And yes, it turns out \'not so good\' in the dark!... thanks for your advice though, I will get a light bulb! Why didn\'t I think-a that!? haha:) I\'m not quite sure how this has happened but I guess I have to thank the person (Mark?) who put me on the boingboing.net website? Thank you!!!xxxxx\n\nHere is my 3rd video; the song is called Summer Face. By the way, the other voice is also me, so please don\'t think that I made someone sing the harmonies and I was mean enough to hog the camera...\n\n\nSome questions answered...\n\nQ: Can I buy your CD? \nA: Thank you so much, that is so nice... Didn\'t think anyone would say that...ever! I have been trying to get a CD together for friggin\' years! I\'ve been on a very long journey to find the sound that I am comfortable with. I even tried being a Rock Chick once...oh my god! So not me. How uncomfortable and awkward was I!?... I\'m a real geek at heart (I love it!), couldn\'t pull off being \'cool\' to save my life! But anyway, at the time I wasn\'t confident enough to stick to what I believed in and what I loved, and in that process of trying to be appealing or trying to please others, I actually totally lost myself and was very confused for a long time, didn\'t really know what was what...hmmm... So! Many failed demos and \"new directions\" later I am finally going to record my next EP/Album this summer (hopefully, I\'ll manage to get the funding together...Come on Universe! Can\'t believe I just said \"universe\"...). So the answer is no, I haven\'t got a CD but watch this space, I will keep you posted:)\n\nQ: Is it really a Ukulele!?\nA: many of you didn\'t believe that it was a ukulele because it has 6 strings but it is quite simply a 6 string tenor ukulele. 2 of the strings are just doubled up in octaves. And yes! I know my ukulele playing is not brilliant but I only started playing it in Feb (this year), so I\'m still learning. I was so uninspired and bored with the piano, probably because I teach it (I am a piano and singing teacher)... I still love it but I needed something fresh and new. So! I met Alfred (the ukulele)...I know it\'s quite sad to name your instrument but mine came with a name when I bought it! The shop-man said \"Aha! I have the perfect instrument for you...wait here a second... (after some digging)... here it is! It\'s called Alfred!\"... \nSo there we go...\n\nQ: Do you write the songs?\nA: Yes, I do. Well, obviously apart from the covers.\n\nQ: What is your nationality?\nA: I am half Scottish (mum) and half Japanese (dad).\n\nQ: Will you marry me?\nA: Ok, but only if you become my house wife. I\'ll call you wifey:) You\'ll have to do all the cooking and cleaning + look after the kids!... no seriously, I\'m very flattered but I\'m not the marrying kind. Haha:0\n\nQ: Were you named after the cartoon cow?\nA: This one was my favourite!!! I totally laughed out loud!:0 Lets say yes for now, I would love that! :)\n\n\nThanks a million:) and more very soon! \nClara xxx\n\n\nLyrics:\nWhen I take a look outside my little window frame,\nThe sun is standing beside me, with its golden flame, \nIf only I could always see beyond me and my name,\nI want to stay here by the seaside, feeling no more shame.\n\n* But why does it always come to an end when I like it like this?\nI give in, I sweetly surrender... ba da ba ba rup...\n\n*** Life is so complicated,\nI sigh and smile with respect,\nI try to be optimistic,\nAnd sometimes I even try to accept it.\n\nSince I made a move to find my favourite Summer Face,\nI realise I can never go against, flow of melody,\nLiquid sunshine flow through my body and soul,\nHealing my heart, and all fading away now, now, now...\n\n* But why...\n\n*** Life is so...\n\nxxxxx
