THE STANDUP THINKER, sings…

Below, I am singing with the use of an application on my phone called SMULE. When you click on the link, what you’ll be clicking on is a backing track— orchestra provided by the Smule application (with the exception of Starry Starry Night– where I’m playing the piano)— for singers who want simply to sing and not be bothered  with attempting to accompany themselves on an instrument. I used to think this kind of Kareoke “thANg” “cheesy,” now I think this kind of thing … god.
