The Modern Major General song was a perfect choice for that talk.

@matt thank you, coming from you that means a lot

BTW, you got higher as you went through the song. That might be one reason it was harder to hit the high notes. Not criticizing, just mentioning it in case you hadn't realized that.

@matt I could feel it, even though I couldn’t hear it, if that makes sense. I think I was trying to convey the franticness and instead of just coming out in tempo and timbre it ended up being a shift in pitch.

Ah, makes sense. I've had perfect pitch for as long as I can remember, so I don't know what it's like to not be able to hear what key I'm singing in.

Now this has got me thinking, if conference talks with songs in them are becoming a thing, I guess I should come up with one next.

Anyway, your song was a great addition to the talk.

@matt thanks again! If we are talking about songs qua trends in tech talks, I have to credit @brainwane at PyCon US this year as my inspiration
