I'm Drowning In Camp Songs


Nukaya

403 views

Today during lunch they were like "Let's learn some songs!" and I realized that I am sort of out of practice in regards to a lot of camp songs, so I pulled out my song book from Namanu and I've been reviewing them for the past hour or so.

 

Unfortunately, the tune of some songs that they sing here at Meadowood varies from what I've learned, so it's been a bit of an adventure trying to put another version of a song to memory. And, I feel slightly awkward as there's a ton of camp songs that I know, especially ones that are night songs (songs that are quieter) but no one else knows them....and I'm slightly/ridiculously shy about having to teach the entire staff songs by myself, but at the same time if I have to live until August third hearing the same ten songs, I will probably go crazy.

 

Hmm, I wonder if I should post some of the camp songs up here. Not as a lyrics entry, but as an actual video (or sound clip? I don't know how to/where to upload something like that) of me singing it. Albeit, you all would have to put up with my not so great singing voice, but there are some amazing night songs I know and it might be a bit cool and would go along really well with the music theme.

Have fun! Hope you get to teach your songs well. Don't worry. (Teach them to a close friend/counselor and then you both do it?)

Woah.

 

You know that song too?

 

Coolio!

 

But I know it as "the little birds fly". It's interesting how songs can vary from camp to camp.

 

It kind of sucks that I have an entire CD of people singing most of the songs in my songbook, but it's at home....it would really come in handy right now.
