This is a parody of Yellow Submarine by The Beatles. I recorded this in March of 2020 while we were all on lockdown due to Covid19. The lyrics were a collaboration with my kids and my mom. I tried to get them to sing it with me, but they were not quite ready to be… Continue reading Covid Quarantine

I am a Mom, a professional and in my heart a performer. I enjoy singing and recording, not only for myself but I really feel it can bring joy to those around me. I was born blind, which comes with its own challenges and sometimes barriers. I am always looking for opportunities to give those around me positive energy. When others feel good, I feel good.
Parody Who’ll Stop The Pain
For a few months now, I have been participating in Community Karaoke put on by the American Council of the Blind (ACB). To participate, you submit a recording of a song that they will then play on Saturday nights at their virtual event. Sometimes they will do a theme night and you choose songs that… Continue reading Parody Who’ll Stop The Pain
Friday I’m In Love
I feel it is important to sometimes let your hair down and have fun with music. To that end, I want to post selections that are either duets I have done, or songs recorded by family members. This song is not originally a duet, but we had fun making it into one. Not only that,… Continue reading Friday I’m In Love

Have A Holly Jolly Christmas
I have always enjoyed this song, but found it difficult to find a version in the key I could comfortably sing it in. I found this one last year and decided to record it. The intro is a bit different, you don’t recognize right away what song it is and it sounds a bit different… Continue reading Have A Holly Jolly Christmas
Winter Wonderland
This is another one of my holiday favorites. For a long time I was confused about the title. As a kid I thought it was winter Under Land, didn’t always catch the w in Wonderland when people would sing it. I have recorded various versions of this one too, this is the latest from 2021.… Continue reading Winter Wonderland
Let It Snow
There are so many great versions of this song. I myself have recorded at least 3 different styles of it. This is the most recent from 2021. Sometimes it is strange singing about snow when I very rarely get to see it. It is a nice song to sing, upbeat and fun. https://media.blubrry.com/3562447/www.desireerenae.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Let-it-snow.mp3Podcast: Play in… Continue reading Let It Snow
The Christmas waltz
I love this holiday song. The music nerd in me totally gets excited when it talks about three quarter time. Just listening to it makes me smile.
