Heidi says be sure to vote for the winners in the Offbeat Music Awards! See Profile page for details.
 
 
 

Okay, this is just for fun...the Offbeat Music Awards! Since most music award shows seem to be clones of each other (seriously!), I made up some fun categories. Since it looks like we've got enough nominations, I'll go ahead and take it to voting. Be sure to vote for one and ONLY one song in each category, in as many categories as you want.

So you’re a church organist. I did not know that. Organ music is cool, especially when you hit those deep bass keys.

:-) Heidi Hecht replies: "Yeah, it sure is cool. My church has this big pipe organ that’s fun to play, except it gets a little weird-sounding when I hit the high notes. So I try to avoid songs that go up way, way high. And I did a wedding over Easter Weekend and the bride was thrilled that we had a pipe organ. It was fun."

Hello there! I saw you commenting somewhere, so I jumped over to have a look, and got caught in your Offbeat Music Award-voting!!
I’m voting Best Sad song: When I’m Gone, Eminem (I cried the first two times I heard it)
Sadly, I don’t know so many of the other songs, and, being me, the first thing I would do is to check out every song I don’t know about...but, I don’t have time, ’cause there’s school tomorrow, so good bye! I hope you check out my gallery (shameless advertisement). *hoping my new pictures will be uploaded in time, when you get my comment*

:-) Heidi Hecht replies: "Okay...Thanks for the comment!"
