Hi all Roxette fans! I just wanted to invite all of you who might be interested in listening to some ROX songs sung by me (a huge fan of them) to my website (www.cancionesjime.blogspot.com). There you’ll find demos of Listen to your heart & IMHBL.
I just wanted to know your opinion (Of course, I’m not Marie!) but I think I get away with it with some dignity, hehe!
By the way, you can also find there songs written and sung by me... I believe they have a strong Roxette influence. I’d really like to know what you think of them.
Besides, I’d like to invite all of you who do this kind of stuff to share it with us. I think it’s pretty cool, motivating and fruitful.
What d’you guys think?

All the best,
Jimena

You need better photos for your site ;)
I tried to fix some of them a little.

Anyway, nice Roxette covers. You should work on your vibrato, it sounds too forced some times.
But nice voice, nice look keep on working

Thank you all so much. Those were homemade recordings: me sitting in front of the computer. I didn’t even have a long wired mic to record them standing up -which is a far better position! Let alone filters and all the things they have at professional studios. So thank you so much for your comments.

I like a lot the fact that you´re honest and tell me what you truly feel. That really helps me grow. I will work on my vibrato and I’ll have a look at the pics... Thank you Ferdan for the effort and time you took to help me out there. I’ll have them replaced. Btw isn’t that cheating? He he.

Take care!
Jimena
