It never fails...right around Christmas time, when we have one of our biggest and most important services of the year...I get sick. Our whole family has been hunkered down all week with drippy noses and headaches.
I've been drinking herbal tea, and water like...well...water. I feel like I should be hooked up to an IV but that wouldn't help my vocal chords. The voice is feeling a bit scratchy so I'm really praying...and trying to rest it today.
anyone have any great singing with a cold tips?
Yeah, try and use the raspy sound to create an edgy kind of sound. Sort of a Joe Cocker/Louie Armstrong worship time. Or maybe if it's real bad you could come up with a Barry Whitish sound...that may be too sexy for worship though. :)
I HATE when that happens. My girls have been sick this week and I've been Zycaming my nostrils like crazy to avoid getting it before the Christmas services along with praying. Zycam...pray...pray...zycam. Sometimes I pray while the Zycam q-tip is stuck in both nostrils.
HOpe it goes well tomorrow!

Merry Christmas Ben...hope your service is great too!

Unbelievable....the same thing happened to me. I started feeling it 3 days before Christmas Eve. I started popping Zycam? and Vit-C like crazy, but it didn't really help. But God somehow got me through the night! I'm just now feeling up to par.
