Tommorow night I have to get up on stage and SING Only Hope by Mandy Moore infront of a whole shit loads of people and im really nervous cry help meee

ill sing with you!

I'm serious cry I'm gonna throw up. I hate singing infront of people

Then don't do it.

I have to or i get an F shock

ok.
Firstly, Instead of thinking about your screw ups, think "How do I want this part to sound?" This will keep you in the present and not focused on your mistakes.
You WILL screw some part up, accept it, everyone does it, just move on.
Try to think about simply entertaining the people, not a grade or anything.

Breath, bring water, breath, and pretend your alone...


(can you tell I preform in front of people alot?)

cry Thank you Steffy. I'm just really stressed because i just got told today that i WILL be singing it and if i dont my grade goes kurplunk cry I wanted to slap my ***** of a teacher so hard.

*breathe*

don't think about the grade,
worst thing you can do.

Yeah, just pretend you're singing in your room by yourself or something. Don't let all those people intimidate you; the fear only screws with your head, making it seem even more scary.... So don't let it.

I'm not really thinking about the grade because as long as i go up and sing the song im fine, it doesnt matter how well. BUT I dont want 5o embarrass myself infront of a bunch of people, like i tend to do And It is really hard for me to pretend im alone

Aww I know how you feel; I had to do a play in front of a bunch of people, and I was the narrator, so lots of lines. I don't know how the heck I got through it, but I did. And I think you'll do just fine

Oh I love acting in front of people very very much, its just singing bleeech cry

I know what you mena....they're sooo different...

but I'm sure you;ll do fine. Just make your singing into acting...

Ronny, just fake a suicide if you start feeling embarrassed!

lol classic

Flip the script. That's what I do.

If you go out there thinking they're all watching you, it'll be bad. Go out there not with the mentality of, "They wanna see something from me" but "I've got something to show them". Puts you in the driving seat.

So I lay my head back down. And I lift my hands and pray To be only yo--*collapse* Ah I'm dead

Picture the audience in their underwear...or better yet, walk out there in just yours skivvy's.

Just treat is like a piece of theatre, if you love that, then you'll be fine.

No, but seriously, the more you practice singing the song, the more you'll nail it. So just practice as much as possible until then. You'll do fine.

You are going to be brilliant

See ya Ronnykins...good luck tomorrow.

Practice that high pitch part over and over and it will become easy. You won't even have to think about it when the time comes.
