5) Fill in the blanks based on what you listen:
Sinatra! This is Sinatra. So I've been staying with my parents during _______________ and it's been interesting. “Mom, mom. I can’t hear you. Sorry”.
I just hope I don't say anything she doesn't want me to say. It's a long story of what happened. I don't even know where to begin. Here's some of her music books from her album, “Be not nobody”. And this is Vanessa when she was 16. I always knew Vanessa would have a ________ career as an artist. That's her at one playing. That was Vanessa two, in piano class.
By the time she was seven there was piano and there was ballet class every day.
I'm from Pennsylvania but I moved to New York City to study ballet, the school of American Ballet. I was turning 14. The school of American Ballet at the time and this is like this is the 90’s. It was _______! There was a lot of problems with the school. Then I really started having trouble. I started ________ classes. I really didn’t like a lot things that I saw that were going on. But I had music. I had music. I had something to turn to. In the dorm there was an old piano, so I would go there and I started writing more elaborate songs. Instead of going to class, music was my escape. It was something I didn't have to follow any rules. It was this other feeling I was getting
when I would play that. I didn't get when I danced anymore. This Yamaha upright was the piano in my parents’ sunroom that I wrote, “A Thousand Miles” song. So the main part of this song that I had for a long time was just this. It's really an instrumental song.
That was the whole thing. It was the summer she was turning 17. I was in the kitchen and she was playing and then she did the riff of “A Thousand Miles” and I just went, “That's a hit sweetie”.
The chorus, the pre-chorus and the verse it's all really a variation on, “welcome to our home”.
The song is about a ____________ I had on a Juilliard Student. I would never talk to this person. I was very shy. I was like there's just no way in God's creation that this would ever happen. So the idea of like, you have a better chance of falling up than ever having a relationship with this person. I can't say the person's name, because they're like a famous actor. And I don't want to say. They know the song is about them? No!
That is what you call magic. It's beautiful. “Thanks mom”.
I made a demo tape of the song “Interlude”, which is now “A Thousand Miles”. I got a job in a restaurant and just tried to. I guess, I was just trying to get a record deal. I just thought if I have someone supporting me or a company supporting me I'd be able to do this for a living and then I could ____________ my waitressing job.
I don't even know what it was but it was the first thing that I heard. I'd never seen her name before. Putting the CDs in the Walkman I went through a few of them and then I put the one in from Vanessa Carlton and I just played it. I came to this song which was seven on the CD and it wasn't even called a “Thousand Miles” it was called “Interlude”. It played you know the famous intro on piano and the demo “Thousand Miles” played. I hit replay and I hit replay and I hit replay and I hit replay and I hit replay.
So let's start we'll do a little musical analysis. She plays the theme in the front in free time. So first four bars of the first verse. No bass just piano and drum. And then bass comes in here. Right here. Those three notes became this. I want the tension to build you're paddling out you're paddling out you're waiting for the next wave turn around the wave is coming catch the wave surfing. Boom! Number one record right from there. Boom! It's a fucking ______ right there when she sings that again with that string lick. That's where the money the wallets come out right there.
