before the performance I practiced all the songs at home as if i was performing. I did my bet to remember to the songs without looking at the lyrics. overall preparing for the performance was difficult as i couldn't decide which songs i wanted to sing. When i eventually decided on the songs, i already knew them so it wasn't too hard to practice the songs.

The last song i sang was called 'berlin' by Ry x. this song is an acoustic guitar based song and is only under 3 minutes long. I chose this song in order to make my set list 20 minutes long. It didn't have much lyrics but it was a nice song to sing along to. i wasn't 100 percent confident with the lyrics so i had to sing while the lyrics were up on the screen. I didn't practice much for this song as i wasn't sure if i was going to sing it or not but i did in the end as my set wasn't long enough.

the 5th song i sang was a cover of the 1975's 'somebody else'. I chose this song as i've done a cover of it before so i easily remembered it. It's another piano based song. i practiced this song by listening to it over and over again until I remembered the lyrics. It's a song i listen to regularly and i like the band.  i found the second verse hard to sing as it's not the same as the first verse but i knew how it sounded as i've listened to the song before. The instrumental that i used for this song was a bit different from the actual song as it was slower.

The fourth song i performed was '26' by paramore. This song was originally an acoustic guitar based song but i chose to do a piano based version as i found it easier to sing to. I chose this song because it means a lot to me and i liked the way my voice sounded with the track. The song is about not losing hope and staying a dreamer.

this song is an acoustic slow song. I found the song easy to sing along to so that's the main reason why i decided to sing it. The song is about loving someone and wanting them all to yourself like a 'hostage'.  I chose this song as it was very slow and i find slow songs easy to sing.

the first song i sang was a cover of a song called 'liability' by Lorde. it's a soft piano ballad. I chose this song as it's not only a song i can relate to lyrically but because of the way the song sounds. I liked how slow it was and it was something i could really feel while singing it.
i decided to choose this song as it's slow and easy to sing. It's easy because there aren't any difficult notes to sing. I practiced this song by singing along to it to remember the lyrics.
