AH WE DID IT!!! I SURVIVED! thanks to everyone that hung out live and was so nice about it :) 

the first 9 minutes are me talking about how i fell in love with singing and unexpectedly wrote a song one day after teaching myself guitar for about a month, plus a lot of disclaimers about how NOT great the song it... haha

then the feed cuts out for a LONG time (mega technical difficulties), reappears at around 16:30, at which point i (reluctantly) play the song.

as promised, lyrics are below. ladies and gents, here's "confide in you", as written by 15 year old me.

Confide In You

 

I was feeling a little frustrated

I didn't know what to do

So I got up the nerve

Picked up the phone and I called you.


You heard it in my voice

You always know when somethings wrong

Always caring so much about me

Said, "Babe, what's going on?"


Chorus

I can't take it any longer

This feeling inside

There's an energy leaving me.

Oh I can't take it any longer,

This incapability.

I can't convert these thoughts to words.

Just wanted to confide in you.


Million things going through my head

Trying so hard to think of what to say

Something's gonna happen if I don’t let it out soon

Well come what may.


I told you it was nothing

That I just wanted to say "hi"

"So, I guess I'll talk to you later"

Hung up and let out a sigh.


Chorus

I can't take it any longer

This feeling inside

There's an energy leaving me.

Oh I can't take it any longer,

This incapability.

I can't convert these thoughts to words.

Just wanted to confide in you.


Cried myself to sleep again

Too much on my mind

Somethings missing don’t know what it is

Something its up to me to find


So I sat down to write and let it out

Something I always used to do

Ended up with this pathetic song

But, oh, I just wanted to confide in you

Yeah I just needed to confide in you

AARRGGHH! First I lost the chat just before Kina started and then I lost EVERYTHING just before Kina was going to perform the song. (She had just went to get her guitar...)

Thank you kina !! That was so cute, lived the lyrics 💌🐦 (wanted to write "loved" but "lived" works too)

Kina, I admire your bravery for sharing with us the first song you wrote. In all honesty, it wasn’t bad at all. I actually really enjoyed the song. Would you ever consider rewriting the song to fit current Kina? Also, if I may offer a suggestion... When (no pressure) you do another world tour, you need to add this song to the set list... maybe a secret encore song! ;)

Thank you for sharing the first song that you wrote! It was good to be honest. I don't think I could share the first story that I finished when I was 14 years old...

Oh man, I wish I could've made it! I had class all day today and I just got out of my night class! So glad to hear from you regardless and thank you for responding to my message! <3 <3 <3

This is beautiful, and for a first song at 15 it's amazing, your forte for sure! :) Also pretty remarkable how wonderful art is in letting out emotions no matter where we are in life. Thank you for sharing the video! :D Just wondering what led you to violin after or before guitar, any others?...besides playing cups ;)

I just watched the replay and, well, call me crazy, but I think Confide In You is actually a very nice song. very nice melody and even the words were fine by me! I have no doubt that many other artists' first songs were much worse than this! it just goes to show that, no matter what words or musical notes are in a song, when your voice is added to the mix something magical always happens! <3 Jim. p.s. you handled this stream like a pro. if you were nervous, I didn't detect it. you seemed very happy and giddy to me!

This is great! :) Thanks for taking the courage to share your first song, Kina!

Oh yeah mine is worse: "The sound of your name Breaks the fragile silence of my heart And my heart sighs a thousand and one sighs As I die a thousand and one deaths..." I'll stop there cause I can't bring myself to finish.

i finally watched the replay oops the part where you talk about how the first couple songs aren't supposed to be good legit made me pause, write an entire song for 2 hours (my... 3rd one ever i think) and then come back and finish the video :D thanks for all the good advice 🙌🏻 i love how you called it "melodramatic". you were 15! 15 year olds are supposed to be melodramatic! my first one is _at least_ as dramatic and i wrote it at 21 😂
