Hi, Holly - sorry I've been MIA from Bix for a while - I moved to Columbus and sort of fell out of the karoake scene - but listening to you and your sentiments about meeting and knowing the special people who frequent this site makes me want to come back and join the group again. :) And I've ALWAYS wanted to be a voice in a Disney movie too - so if that makes me a dork, then I embrace my inner dorkiness too! We can just be dorky together! And maybe we can someday work on a Disney movie together too. ;) Love ya, Holly. Beautiful song and voice, as usual, and it sucks that it was cut off -- I'm sure you would've given it an amazing finish. :) 01/01/2008 10:44
Hey! I moved into an apartment back in 1985 that had orange shag carpeting! It was a choice between that or a chocolate brown SCULPTED carpet! Believe it..you CAN bring a room to life with orange shag carpeting..of course that WAS 20 years ago! And you are NOT a dork! You know, miss, I did that duet of "I Know Him So Well" awhile back and sent you a letter but I know you are a busy, busy girl! I wish we lived closer too! I am not the most of confidence either! 12/18/2007 14:40
Torch!!! I totally missed your email on SS?? So sorry!!! I am gonna get to it sometime next week for sure!!! I can hardly wait to sing with you!!! WOOOHOOOO!!!!! 12/23/2007 14:38
I do Not think you are a Dork at all ! I believe Mr. Walt Disney would have been honored to have your voice representing one of his movies :) 11/11/2007 20:13
Thanks for not thinking I am a dork, lol! :) I am ok with being one though, lol! :) And whoa, thanks for the awesome compliment!! Singing in a Disney film would be a dream come true... Take care! Holly 12/03/2007 11:21
Holly you are just soooooooooooooooooooooooo cute! ...in a dorky kind of way...lol. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed listening to you. Our basement shag was purple! It was my domain complete with black lights, posters and anything else I thought was cool! Like everyone else reading this, I'm surprised you were ever had confidence issues. But kudos to you for learning from that and building on it. I get chill bumps everytime I hear you sing! You're awesome...inside and out! I'm proud to be your bix friend. 11/08/2007 21:51
Gosh Ken, THANK YOU!!!! :) You are such a great friend to me!!! And I would have LOVED to have seen your Purple SHag, lol!!!! Take care and big hugs to ya! :) Holly 12/03/2007 11:20
you have such a sweet, caring personality...my favorite part of it was when you talked about how much you love your kids, so awesome! anyways, great to hear more about you...i am so glad i have met you on this site! 10/30/2007 22:58
Hi Holly, thanbks for sharing a little more of your self with us fans… what a down to earth women u are and i find it hard to believe u actually had a confidence issue with the great talent u have...by the way i still have about 10000 45's and lp's just dont have as much time to listen as when i was younger… still have my record player lol even play's 78's.... 10/30/2007 19:16
Hiya Flash!!! :) Thanks so much for the sweet compliment, wow!!! :) And yep, I still have major insecurity issues...don't know if they will every go away, lol! :) AND WOW!! 10,000 45's and LP's!! That is one heck of a collection!!! That is fantastic!!! 12/03/2007 11:14
Holly, This was wonderful. Wow I loved the singing. Like James you need to do this for us by it's self. The whole song. I could picture the movie and you being the voice singing. It would be a hit for sure. No dork Here. 10/29/2007 13:21
I hear you on the auditions Holly, man i hate those things.. you never know if it was ok and you always doubt yourself and man theater and music is just a world of rejections but man there was some great times that came from my audition experinces. you should be a confident cuz you ROCK!! 10/28/2007 23:07
Holly Holly, i just adore you… but you know that, your so great!! and i just love your personality!! I love hearing your great voice, and i agree with nick you have a great Voice for Disney!! Wow i need to take voice lessons from you!! Hugs and blessings too you sweets!! ...James 10/28/2007 23:04

ginny:-) 10/28/2007 11:08
Thank you!!!! I just think the world of you!! YOU are one of the friends I have here that I hope to have forever...you are an AWESOME person! :) 11/03/2007 10:15
Awwwww, thank Nicole!! :) I feel the same way about you! :) And, Bix has REALLY helped me out with my confidence issues...still have them, lol! But, I am not AS insecure, lol! :) 11/03/2007 10:14
Ughhhhh...the audition process is still really scary to me...but the older I get...the more daring I seem to get, lol!! :) You would do so well at audition!!! And you are SO close to all kinds of fantastic opportunites!! Maybe start with something small that you don't really care too much about...just for the experience?? Or, I could come their for a visit and drag you out to do some Karaoke somewhere???? That would be SO much fun!! :) 11/03/2007 10:13
Could you be anymore adorable?? Shag carpet, inner dorkiness, girl you are way too funny!! Thanks so much for joining my contest!! You cracked me up. I personally have listened to each one of the contestants and it is so cool how each one of them has added they unique "flavor" to their entries. I hear what you are saying about the fear of success, I have dealt with the same fears my whole life but it seems the older I get the more caution I throw into the wind. I guess once you get to your 40's you begin to think like ITS NOW OR NEVER!! You have plenty of time but do take advantage of your beautiful voice. I near fell off my seat when you sang!! Disney is missing out not having your musical talents!! APPLY NOW!!! ;) 10/28/2007 07:20
Lol, thank you Terrie! :) And wow, thanks for the great compliments...they mean a lot to me!!!!! :) This is such a wondeful contest...so glad you started it!!! :) Take care! Holly 11/03/2007 10:08
awwwwwholly. thanks so much for sharing. i am so glad to have met you. you and your family are just the greatest and may god always bless you. 10/27/2007 18:14
Holly, Holly, Holly....That was simply amazing listening to you talk about your family, your musical experiences, and your dreams...I can relate so much on the lack of confidence thing...I didn't have the opportunities you did as I was overseas most of my younger adult years but I can imagine I'd have been the same way about auditioning on Broadway!! But at least you got to do some Off-Broadway stuff and record back-up on some albums...that is so cool!! And I love what you said about meeting so many wonderful, warm, caring people here at Bix...I am so with you on that!! What a great place to share our gifts with each other, support one another, and just enjoy socializing with each other!! I smiled the whole time I was listening to you...you are such a beautiful woman inside and out...when you started singing, I got major chills and the tears just spilled over...I am actually still crying as I type this...that song just has so much meaning to me and hearing your gorgeous voice singing it made me lose my composure!! Sorry the last 3 words cut off!!! I don't understand why it does that!! Anyway...absolutely nothing dorky about wanting to sing in a Disney movie or be the voice of one of the characters...I love Disney movies!!! Okay, so maybe I'm a dork too!! haha!! Thanks for sharing a bit about yourself and I truly do want us to get together in Manhattan one day soon!!! Much love and big hugs to you, my friend!! Lisa :) 10/27/2007 09:39
Oh Lisa, thank you SOOOO much! I really don't know how to respond to such a warm and kind compliment... Like I said, I can get my feelings across a lot easier when I am singing...wish I had the words to express how much your comment means to me. Sure didn't mean to make you cry but and I am so floored that my singing would caused such a reaction...wow! And, we DEFINITELY need to plan a time to get together in Manhattan sometime soon!! That would be SO much fun!! :) Thanks again! Holly 10/29/2007 11:17
ARGH! I can't watch past graduation without getting sent back to the beginning. I loved seeing you light up when talking about your kids, though. I'll keep trying and maybe I'll get lucky and it'll let me watch your video. 10/27/2007 08:38
Thank you Lisa!!!! Although I know I really am a dork...but I don't think that is a bad thing, lol! :) You are too darn sweet...thanks for the nice comment! :) 10/29/2007 08:52
Holly, I totally did that with my friends and song lyrics! Only, I would usually write them down on notebook paper and pass it around. I still harrass people with particularly touching lyrics! 10/26/2007 14:00
Wow Stacy!! So I am really not the only one...good to know!! :) Oh, and I still harrass people with lyrics too, lol...my husband, my friends, my dog too LOL...whoever I can corner! :) 10/29/2007 08:50
