First off here is the video catching all of this negative attention. It's a joke video but i guess everyone thought i was trying out to be a proffessional singer lol (IDIOTS!!!!!!!!)
Before i continue........... Here is an example of what im about to talk to you about.
These are comments from ONE person, and my replies.
Ashesketchum say's:
I'm pretty sure the thing people take issue with is the fact that you are actively advertising this video as a 'good' female cover of the song. That's pretty self complimentary and somewhat presumptuous. Just sayin'.
So then "ershnuff" say's to AshesKetchum:
This is a fair assumption on your part. I was just about to comment about how she seems to pat herself on the back about this being a "good female cover" when I saw your comment. This is an *OKAY* cover at best. This singer has potential but she should look into vocal coaching/lessons--there are several times she goes flat and has a nasally sound to her singing voice. She needs to learn how to summon your voice from certain places, i.e. "head voice", "chest voice", etc.
So then i reply:
Actually, im learning the tricks of YOUTUBE. You wouldnt believe how my views shot up after putting that as my title...... Now run and tell that. I know what im doing, So you can just run along now.................... AND IT IS A GOOD FEMALE COVER***** SOO.. Got you to view!!!!
AshesKetchum replies to me saying:
Yes, I do believe that your views went up after changing the title, but that's more due to the fact that you are essentially using false advertisement. I'm not saying you're a horrible singer, but a few voice lessons certainly wouldn't go amiss. There are quite a few talented musicians on youtube. Most of them treat comments with quite a bit more grace than you have shown here.
So i reply back to AshesKetchum:
I've lived with myself for 24 years now.. And.. Im not that blind to my singing or my voice :) I agree with you... I cant afford lessons.. If you'd like you can pay for them for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :p Also... It's not really false advertisment, It's simply testing.... Get over it :p
And THEN.. She leaves ANOTHER comment after posting a video reply of herself singing the same song. I READ the comment because it was in my INBOX but she deleted it from the main page, Im guessing she thought i couldnt see it after she deleted it? I dont know, But here is what she said.
From AshesKetchum to @LadyCookieLuckMusic I really hope you don't think that I'm just trying to bring you down without knowing what I'm talking about. I just did a cover of the same song and yet I still seem to be in tune quite a bit more often than you are. Further, I didn't feel the need to make a video of it while recording my vocals. We get it- you enjoy attention. Please, in the future, don't confuse the need for attention with talent.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
...and now here is what i have to say
I think people enjoy leaving me rude comments a little too much..
You all really need to get over yourself..
You all really need to get over my video..
People need to stop thinking all i want is attention.
I have plenty of friends/family in real life who love me, And give me all the attention i'll ever need.
Plus a God who loves me unconditionally.
I record videos and post them because its what i love to do. And it's nobody elses buisness what i do it for.
It's not really even for attention.... Alot of times for me it is self expression, and other times im making memories. Wich you wouldnt understand.
When i started out on youtube, i never did care if only one person ever watched. Then people started watching, so i kept on doing what i was doing. And look where i am now. With two partnered channels, thousands of videos on many of my videos, some even up to 20,000. Many many subcribers, and no they arent all men.. And i dont have to show myself to get views. I dont even dress revealing and if i ever do it's occasionally...
My FATHER watches my youtube, so everything i do is family friendly. My Dad is a pastor, so.. I never go too out there and never will.... I dont have to do any of that to get attention anyway.......
I think my spirit is what people are attracted to.
So anyway.... Im not trying to brag, because i have NO reason to brag, but im just saying how i got started and how far i've come... I dont have neary as many subs/comments/viewers as other's but i think i've done pretty good so far.. And people seem to like what they see.
Im not going to be doing this youtube forever. Im going to quit one day. Especially when i get married. Because when i get married im going to be 100% devoted to my husband, my family, my children, my home, and of course GOD (#1).
So dont worry you wont have to watch me much longer.............
And besides why are half of you watching me anyway if you dont like me? And what inside of you makes you want to leave stupid comments.. As if i asked you.. "Did you like this video? WAS I SINGING OFF TUNE?"
Im starting to think you all have a HUGE jealousy problem, either that or you are SO bored with your life, you need to harass me for entertainment... Get a new hobby yall.. Im a human being with feelings, not just a girl on a video.................
Get over the fact that i made a Bed Intruder song......
And that i song off key...
You do realize i wasnt trying to be serious right?
You do realize i was just trying to imitate Antoine Dodson?
I wasnt aware that this was a talent show. I didnt know i was supposed to sing on key.
And also.. I never thought anyone would even watch my singing videos. My singing videos are 100% self expression no matter what im singing or doing, and i could care less if ANYONE ever watches ANY of those videos.... Those are all for me.. Actually.. All of my videos are for me................................
If you dont like me stop watching.
And find something better to do with your time.
I admire you so much for standing up for yourself and not let the haters think that they've won over you. I completely understand where you're coming from, I as a fan have been watching your videos for far too long, I may not give out comments on your videos in a regular basis but I do watch you, simply because I feel like I've known you personally, you're very natural on cam, you don't just act, its really you who we see, your personality and all. And as to your singing, I find it okay and entertaining, whether you sing off key or hit the notes just right, you do it for fun, and we your true fans understand that :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for your videos and I hope you continue doing them, I see you as someone with a great sense of humor and personality and that's what makes you fun to watch. God Bless :))
Exactly! Thank you! <3 & God Bless You Too!
