If I were ever to pursue music professionally, this is how I would want to turn out. She is wonderful to her fans; she is open to all kinds of different art; although famous, she hasn't conformed completely to the "mainstream;" she actually has incredible musical talent; she is carefree; her shows are fucking amazing because she, along with the people she shares the stage with, has fantastic energy that the crowd can feel and see; she is famous enough that most people know of her, but she isn't famous enough to constantly show up in the tabloids; and, last but definitely not least, she is sweet and dedicated to her fans and the people she works with. Needless to say, I'm in love with Amanda Fucking Palmer. She has helped me get back on the music wagon innumerable times when I felt like the efforts were useless.
All of my music instructors, friends, family, Upward Bounders, Gymnastics Kids and Coaches, the kids who went to school with me, former flames and friends, fellow MySpacers... All of you. You all inspire me even if you hate me and talk about me behind my back. As most may know, pain and grief can create beautiful works of art. On a more positive note, the ones who love and care for me help me so incredibly much as well. Your words of encouragement have been more than enough to keep me singing with my hands and mouth. People who comment, add me, message, listen to my music... Whoever you are, please don't stop. I greatly appreciate it. And to the ones who have always been there and who have never asked me to be somebody who I wasn't, thank you. It means more than you'll ever know.

I know at times it feels like you can't bear to touch the piano, press the "phantom" button on the preamp, and press down on the space bar, but you are getting better everyday. You are not Mozart, you are not Bach, and you are not Kelly Clarkson. But you are Angela Nicole, and that girl is talented and strong-willed.
Hey...I'm listening to it right now. I agree with some of the other people: it is pretty, and it is sad. It pretty much rings true, and thats what I like about your music. I would call you but my phone is dying, so I suppose I'll just have to get in touch with you later.
Hey! I thought we had already added you! But I guess not.
Ok, so the next local show is going to be on April 4th, you could probably have 30 minutes of set time, but I will have to check and make sure. I can't wait to see you live! :D
