Jillian Clare - Heck No


Jillian Clare is a former child actress from the Soap Opera 'Days Of Our Lives'. She now appears on the reality show, Miss Behave.

I love this single; it's so catchy. (I think it was featured on Gossip Girl, if I'm not mistaken).

Since I'm really good at making playlists, it gets me pissed, that like, the same 3 songs are used for all Fan-Made-Music videos (this qualifies for any fandom, Twilight, Harry Potter, or otherwise). I made this just to show Twilight fans there's other music beyond Paramore & Fall Out Boy.

Her Achy Breaky Heart


In Miley Cyrus' recent autobiography, she admits to suffering from Tachycardia, a heart condition. Although it's usually asymptomatic, tachycardia can cause fatigue & weakness; i.e. Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome ( a form of Dysautonomia).

Although I'm sure Miley's revelation caused extra publicity for her autobiography, please don't knock her down or claim she's milking her illness for attention.

As an ill teenager myself, I struggle to deal with being labeled a 'Drama Queen', or 'Emo'. I found many of my friends simply refused to believe I was sick; old people get sick, not teenagers. I couldn't shatter their sense of adolescent invulnerability.

If anyone's interested in learning more about Dysautonomia & similar illness; I recommend checking out the website 'But You Don't Look Sick'. It has a lot of information, inspirational stories, quotes, etc.

Also, check out 'The Spoon Theory'. It's a poignant story about a girl explaining to her friends how it feels to have a chronic illness. (It'll change the way you look at sick people)

(I have to go somewhere; I will edit this post later & include a rare Miley Cyrus demo)

Drugs & Hugs


Sorry I haven't posted in awhile; I'm in the process of switching medication, so I've been a little weak.

Good News is, my new prescription lists weight loss as a side effect (compared to a certain pharmaceutical that had it in for my skinny jeans) - & just in time for the junior prom! (or, maybe not. Turns out, those Thin Mint 'Girl Scout' cookies....yeah, won't make you thin)

Stay tuned; I've found a bunch of great new Pop-Rock artists that need to be shared with the world!

Kelsey Lee Smith - Individual


Artist: Kelsey Lee Smith
Title: Individual
.
01. Searching For My Dreams
02. Individual
03. Girl Thing
04. Living My Dream
.
.
.
.
On the scale of 'bleh' MySpace Singers, Kelsey is a 6.5 (A good artist being a zero or one).
She has talent, and quite a voice; unfortunately, with lines like "I will sing, I will dance, I will fly away to France"....yeah, talent will only get you so far. Though, with the proper production team & songwriters, she can go far.

Mission Statement



I decided to focus my blog on "Up & Coming" MySpace Singers.
The airbrushed glamour shots, bedazzled age inappropriate clothing, outrageous statements such as "She's been singing since before she could talk..." - the whole she-bang.
Talent isn't how much money your parents spent on a graphic artist to compose your website layout, or which 'talent bootcamp' run by some has-been, you've attended.
& it doesn't take too many posts to prove that!
