How could you forget the classics Gotta Get Through This and If You're Not the One!

Fuck...tried to listen to both those songs and just couldn't do it.

Haha. And didn't he have a sister who was equally dreadful?

I have to do a weekly 2-hour practice session for the speech-recognition software. I find it really hard to find stuff to practise with, so I often end up doing songs - Supremacy was super fun, and I did TIRO today.

Including such segments as, "How did it come to this question mark ooh comma yeah comma yeah comma yeah comma yeah full stop"

But then the issue of sound in that little room came up - whether we're distracted by outside noise. I mentioned that I wondered what it was like the other way around, and one of the managers said, "Well, I can clearly hear you guys from my desk when you're practising..."

Makes me think of when I call places and get voice recognition things. I always get awkward - like I think people will notice me saying weird things but then how is anyone else in my office going to know I'm not talking to a real person?

I guess it's because the voice recognition never understands my kiwi accent and I just keep repeating the same thing over and over to "sorry, i don't understand"

Yesterday was the best birthday I've had in ages. Went and did random mid-afternoon karaoke with some friends, and it was hilarious. Highlights included an amazing duet with a workmate of Sisqo's Thong Song, and some solo efforts - including The Lion Sleeps Tonight and Madness. I think I overdid it in the end bit of Madness - my throat is still really sore more than 24 hours later!

One of my guy friends and I did a duet of Robbie Williams and Nicole Kidman's Something Stupid - his idea. It's really not a song two straight dudes should sing together...
