TWG7 Sings Hallelujah

I have always wanted to sing this song but honestly never had the guts.  I hope that I have done this beautiful, heartbreaking song justice for today's #project365

I chose to do it today because I was in the worst pain than I have been in for over a year now. I did less today than I have on many other days.  When you have severe fibromyalgia, it doesn't matter.  We went out for a very short while today.  By the time we got home, I couldn't breathe the pain was so bad.  In fact, I had a hard time getting out of the car.  Tears streamed down my face as I moaned uncontrollably from the pain.  I tried sitting very still in the only chair that I can sit in with any relative comfort.  That didn't work.  Ultimately, I lay on my side with a special pillow for the nerve damage in my neck & another between my legs after I took some Advil in the hopes of quieting it just the tiniest amount.  After a while, I was able to stand & very very carefully go change my clothing, clean my face up & fix my makeup.  I hadn't realized that the new dress I put on was putting pressure on some damaged nerves which led to the agony.  Once I changed, I felt better than I had though even while writing this I feel the tell tale twinge in my neck & spine that if I am not extremely careful, I will be in tears again any moment.  Fibromyalgia & the effects it has on those that have it, vary patient by patient.  Some can take advill during a rare flair and keep right on going with their lives as if nothing is wrong.   Others entire lives change as the pain decides what you can or can not do.  This is exactly why Project365 is so important to me.....it is a gift to me to be able to share my singing again.  So when I say thank you for listening, I do mean it from the bottom of my heart.

I chose this song while I was waiting for dinner to be done.  It embodies exactly how I was feeling today

This is what I shared on my YouTube page itself...What I didn’t share was that this was my  5th take of the song.  One I deleted but Im going to share the other 4 here.  My husband was comparing 1 & 2 and told me that he liked 1 better....because I sang it with more emotion even though I didn’t get through it all smoothly.   I explained to him that was because I was hurting the worst on take one.  I was trying to sing the pain out.  It helped to  a point.  lol
