Chapter 31: Album Preparations (2)
After the lunch, all the staff of the studio had returned and Noah, Mike, Theo and Mary also returned to the recording room. Mary was going to return to prepare for the other things, but Noah insisted as she's the one who gave him the suggestion, so he wanted her to listen too.
"Shall we start the rehearsal again." Max asked Noah.
"Of course, let's do it."
"If it really doesn't fit, then I think we should try some other sing. Maybe this theme isn't for you, at least for now." Max could see that Noah was trying his best, maybe this song was not made for him. If so, then he doesn't want Noah to keep focusing on it as not to hurt his self-confidence.
"Don't worry, I believe this time it will be better." Noah said confidently.
"Let's hope so."
Noah went to mic and kept quiet for a while. All his beautiful memories started to surge in his mind. When he first went to shooting set and met his favorite stars, he wanted to ask for autographs and be a little crazy, but he held himself back and behaved mature. Soon lyrics started coming out of Noah's mouth.
Can you hear me calling
Out your name?
You know that I'm falling
And I don't know what to say
I wanted speaking a little louder
I wanted to even shout
But I was proud
And couldn't get the words out
Oh, I
I just wanna tell you my baby
Oh, I
I want to love you baby
(Wanna love you baby)
Soon the lyrics ended, and Noah heard the sound of a person clapping. He opened his eyes and saw Mary clapping. He then looked at Max and Theo and Max spoke with a smile,
"It was an excellent one. It's completely different experience listening to it compared to before."
"What changed in such a short time?" asked Theo.
"It's an advice from Mary." Noah signaled toward Mary and told about the suggestion Mary gave him.
The days of preparing and recording music went on and febuary had arrived. Album is now more than half completed and they will be able to complete it by the end of febuary or the beginning of March.
"Noah how are you feeling?" Mike asked Noah in the studio. Tomorrow, the first single of Noah's album is going to be released.
"A little anxious." Noah replied trying to be calm, but his worry was clearly visible on his face.
"Don't worry, it's perfect. So don't think much." spoke Max. He has clear confidence in the song which is going to be released tomorrow.
"I hope so." Noah murmured in his heart.
That night, Noah stayed up late till night talking with Tom on the phone. Since he came back from Canada, he talks with Tom once a week as Tom was busy shooting in New Zealand.
"How's your shoot going?"
"It's going well. But what about you. You told me a few days ago that you were going release your first single soon." asked Tom.
"It will be released tomorrow." answered Noah, "Although Max said that it will good, but I am still in doubt. Maybe I should revise it again."
"Noah, I told you this before and I am telling you this again. Don't ever question your own work. If an artist doesn't believe in himself, then how will others. No matter how good one might be, but an Artist who loses his self confidence is nothing great."
"Of course I believe myself. It's just... " Noah tried to argue but he was short of words and then said, "Thank you, I know this. I was just too anxious."
"Don't think about this anymore. Let's talk about something relaxing and happy."
"What "
"Your birthday is coming soon. Isn't it a happy thing."
"It's ok." Noah just answered casually. For him, birthday is not an exciting thing. Although he celebrates it with his family, it is always plain.
"Aren't you happy for it? You are going to be sixteen soon. Not minor as before." Tom was puzzled. Teenagers at this age are always looking forward to the birthday especially their sixteen and eighteenth birthday.
"Now that's a reason to be happy about." This is the thing that excites Noah about this birthday.
Noah chatted for a long time with Tom. He didn't even pay attention to the fact that his first single "Just wanna tell you" was released quietly while his was sleeping peacefully on 3rd febuary midnight.
