Youtube deleted account

2009-12-14T14:56:00.000-08:00

Hi everyone,

Unfortunately YOUTUBE suspended my account! So you'll no longer be able to receive updates from me... And most likely you'll never find this site either since my account was links to this.

On youtube you're not supposed to post videos that contain material that is copyrighted (which in this case includes the instrumentals, pictures maybe, lyrics), so I guess my account did violate the terms. True, many other accounts are doing the same thing, but a third party from the music industry in Japan reported my video. It's not youtube directly complaining, but if third parties finds videos that use their content, they can delete it.

I'd like to say THANK YOU to all my lovely subscribers and listeners who followed me throughout these years. I'm still singing, just that my account got deleted. I might come back in another form, or maybe even start working on original tracks. Meanwhile, best of luck to all and you can still listen to me by supporting my compilation CD below ^_^

XOXO: Collection 1 of songs by Snowflakes001 for DOWNLOAD!

2009-11-28T19:11:00.000-08:00

Hello ♥!

Since many of my Youtube viewers requested that I compile an album for download...

I've finally done that =)

Attached also are 2 pictures so you can know how I look like.

They aren't very clear since I still would like to keep my identity low key. =)

Hope you enjoy my work. These aren't perfect, but I will practice hard!

More information about each song can be found on my youtube site:

http://www.youtube.com/snowflakes001

Track number 16 is a song that got taken off youtube, but I included it here as a bonus. The original singer was Erika Sawariji. I actually did this song quite a long time ago!

Credits to:

All who were involved in the creation of these songs:

- Ayumi Hamasaki: Jewel, Together When, Heaven

- Mika Nakashima: Mienai Hoshi

- Dew: My Special Day

- Utada Hikaru: Prisoner of Love

- Rainie Yang: 學會, 習慣曖昧

And of course:

- Whiteygurl for the lyrics to 謝謝你安慰我

- PianoNinja for playing the piano version to Prisoner of Love

- All my subscribers and fans for your continued support! ♥

The small $2 USD charge on this album is only to account for the time I spent recording the songs, putting it together in an album form, for the covers and my original track. I'm not charging for the instrumentals of the covers since they were not produced by me.

Thank you very much!

XOXO

THANK YOU

I can only reminisce the time when I first met you
I was like an empty piece of paper
Waiting to be colored colored with rainbows and sunshine
Instead, it was torn apart
Shattering a perfect illusion that now no longer ceases to exist

My Special Day - Dew *requested by hudoukyou

2009-10-09T23:17:00.000-07:00

Finally an update =)

This was requested by hudoukyou

Enjoy!

I think my timing for some of these is off occasionally..

Wait for my next one~~ haha

2009-10-05T00:55:00.000-07:00

School's been exhausting....
But I'm still here!!!
There is a very special request that I must do, it's called
"My Special Day" by Dew
That will be my next song, hope you're all looking forward to it!
Meanwhile.. back to my lab report..

New updates!!!

2009-06-11T15:57:00.000-07:00

Hey everyone =)
I finally have some updates~!!

A song for xx was a request from one of my listeners... I'm sure I mess up alot on the lyrics cuz it does get super fast.. So hope that's okay.. ><

Next is Loving you by Minnie Riperton.. I was trying to use the dolphin/whistle note! I'm working on developing that technique.. Here I know its not the most relaxed sounding but I think I'll get it soon.. Don't worry I know how to practice so it wouldn't strain my voice, this one was just a little trial..

Flavor of Life was another request that I did.. It was really low at the beginning so I couldn't quite reach it well =(

There was a request for sangatsu kokonoka - the song from 1 litre of tears~

And here's something different from usual!! This is an Italian opera song. This was the only accompainment I could find! Usually its a little higher~ I take opera lessons and it sounds much different than pop =)

PianoNinja is another very talented youtube-r and he said after hearing my Prisoner of love cover he got inspired to play it on piano! So sweet =). Anyways he played it here without a music score http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XtXqjrg1qik (click to see his version) & he extracted the sound from the video and asked if I could sing along to it =)

---

Currently I'm trying to go through alot of the requests that I still have yet to do!! Also someone has written a song and asked if I could sing it for them, and that is in the works.

Very long break.. sorry!

2009-04-12T01:15:00.000-07:00

To all my supporters and listeners:

I'm so sorry once again for this whole year long hiatus!! I promise, I will be back for a bit around the end of April, then I will be back with some more work in June.

Sorry again for disappearing this whole year!
xoxo

Avex International Audition

2008-11-27T23:17:00.000-08:00

So I just applied to the Avex International Audition!!!!
http://www.avexworldaudition.com/2008/en/application/

Dear Avex:

I really hope you will consider my application!!!! I thought I would be able to upload mp3 songs, but I now realize that this very website is going to be where you visit to look at my songs.
Please check out these songs, I feel they are my better ones!

As of February 10, I currently have 171 subscribers (and still going up) for my youtube channel. I never email/message any youtubers to check out my site, all visitors have somehow found their way to my youtube without any promotional source.. My most popular video (see below #2, Jewel) has over 439,000 views and a rating of 4.5 from over 260 users, and has been favorited over 340 times... =)

1. Together When...

2. Jewel (my most popular on youtube, but personally I don't like my singing style here because I tried something different, so please check out my other songs too for different style!)

3. Prisoner of Love

4. Mienai Hoshi

5. Planetarium

6. My own song composition

MY COMPUTER IS STOLEN

2008-09-05T10:43:00.000-07:00

I am so unhappy
Someone broke into my house
We even called police
But my laptop is STOLEN
It was brand new
So I won't be able to record anything for awhile..
Also... All my covers are gone now....
=(
Please support <3

Update~

2008-08-31T12:47:00.000-07:00

I'm going to try and get through as many requests and do more songs before the summer ends.. (in a few days actually!). Because once school starts its hard for me to find time to record my songs... And I have to do it when my roommates are out of the house hahaha~

I'm still recovering slightly from a bit of a flu so my throat isn't in the greatest condition.... But I will try my best!

My favorite covers I've done so far are probably Mienai Hoshi (original singer Mika Nakashima) and Together When (original singer Ayumi Hamasaki). Seems like the most popular one is Jewel (original singer Ayumi Hamasaki) though! The style I used to sing that song is so different from what I normally do.. Maybe I should do that again for another song and see what happens. Can most people actually tell that there is a style difference between Jewel & other Ayumi songs?

Heaven & Prisoner of Love

2008-08-31T12:45:00.001-07:00

My latest cover so far is Heaven, originally by Ayumi Hamasaki. This was requested by xxstrawberrymochixx & PhoenixI89I~

Also here is Prisoner of Love, originally by Utada Hikaru~ I love this song!

Extended break until September *possible..

2008-05-03T23:03:00.000-07:00

I'm going to try to do as many cover songs as I can for now..
Except I'm going to be away this summer for a very very long vacation.. (until September) since Universities have 4 month holidays... So I'm not sure when I can record!!

So who knows, the next cover might be in September, as much as I want to do them.

Also I want to apologize for my really weird combination of 3 cover requests together... I will do them whole... I think that was pretty bad, so I'll probably delete the clip and re-record new and better ones!!!

Mienai Hoshi - Mika Nakashima cover

2008-05-03T22:56:00.000-07:00

I think this song is really really pretty.. and I think I sang it okay here.. Much better here than how I sang my original song!!

謝謝你安慰我 Original composition by snowflakes001 & lyrics byyhj123

2008-05-03T22:48:00.000-07:00

FINALLY I have lyrics for this song!!!
So in case people forgot.. this is my first pop song composition ever... I'm not that great with piano and the rhythm is probably all weird... And I don't think I sing it too great because the melody which I wrote.. is pretty bad for singing? Like its so easy to go offtube on those fast parts in the chorus.. So next time I write songs, I really need to keep in mind the singing melody, and not how it sound on piano!!

Anyways THANK YOU YHJ123 for writing lyrics for my songs!! The lyrics are in mandarin~

謝謝你安慰我 by yhj123
聽你說，你就是我的MR.Right
你有資格深深的愛我
我知道，你只是在安慰我
因為你沒有牽過我的手

看透徹的心理
其實就是沒道理
別再繼續，欺騙愛情
我知道，你知道
我很愛你的心
所以你不想，看我不開心

Chorus :

你，許下的承諾
答，應永遠陪我
不過這只是個謊言
雖然這是個善意的謊言
你一不留心我立刻逃走了
剩我一個人在外逍遙自在
我想要看到你輕鬆的存在
雖然我還是一個孤獨俠
謝謝你，安慰我

聽你說，你還是我的MR.Right
你還有資格深深的愛我
我知道，你還是在安慰我
因為你還沒有牽過我的手

看透徹的心理
其實就是沒道理
別再繼續，欺騙愛情
我知道，你知道
我很愛你的心
所以你不想，看我不開心

(*Repeat Chorus~)

Bought new $1.50 microphone!!

2008-04-15T19:29:00.000-07:00

I'm so proud of my purchase today..
$1.50 microphone!!!!!!!
Okay it does sound more fuzzy, so I have to edit out all the background noise..
But it was so cheap... which is good for my low budget =)
And my old one was a headset.. This one I can just put on my desk and sing.. so I like that too!

And I FINALLY finished 3 request songs -->
1.Kamalishak: 馬德里不思議 - 蔡依林
2.Lil3a: No One or If I aint got You - Alicia Keys
3.Mylifesucks0412: Truly, Madly, Deeply - Cascada

---
SOO SORRY I clumped them all together into one video, and only sang first verse + chorus..!
I'm really out of time..
And also because I will be going away this summer on vacation nearly all 4 months, I'm not sure when I can record next! It's exam time right now at school.. but I do this when I'm bored..

Microphone is BROKENED

2008-04-11T21:33:00.001-07:00

OMG!!!
=( SOOOOO SADDDD

My microphone BROKE
It's no longer recording anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So now.. I won't have new songs UNTIL I buy a new one..
But I have insufficient funding right now..

Meanwhile.. I had alot of requests for people to be able to download my songs!!
So just go to my soundclick to download

FREE - Erika Sawajiri (Me singing)

2008-04-06T01:38:00.000-07:00

Just for fun... Never sang this style of song so far! pop-rock style..I was playing around with the program so I added a slight bit of computer effect to the sound.. like the original song, which I regret =_=.. Cuz I think it was better without it in some parts!And I should have sang the rest of it in a stronger style. So I'm not that proud of this cover.. Actually it kinda sucks.. =(But doesn't hurt to try..!I will work on the requests soon!*Erika Sawajiri is the girl from 1 Litre of Tears.. she looks so different..

Wow so stressed with school right now.. It's exam time! And I'm super behind..

So I have NO CLUE why I am even doing this... I should get back to work now....

Help me write lyrics!!

2008-03-12T00:26:00.001-07:00

I was randomly playing on the piano when I decided... why not write at song?~~

☆｡ﾟ.+゜♪[　PLEASE HELP ME WRITE LYRICS + TITLE　]♪ﾟ+.゜｡☆
Email snowflakes001youtube@yahoo.ca

And then maybe I'll sing it ^_^

Write in either Japanese/Chinese/English (**Preferably NOT english, because this song isn't really an english style of pop song to me...!)

Important Notes:

*00:24 start of song*1:12 is Chorus*1:24 (a scale like part.. not to be sung like that, those are just decorational notes! If you are writing lyrics, follow the melody of 1:12.. so basically word syllables should be equal to the ones found in 1:12)

*1:40 to 2:04 is not to be sung

*3:20 onwards not to be sung

I just wrote it mainly by ear... The left hand part probably sounds redundant, I'm not good enough of a piano player to improvise really cool accompainments!! And I just recorded it with my mp3 player on the piano, so quality is not too great..I don't know how this is going to work out!
