MEANINGWAVE EXISTS!!!

Me performing at Gordie’s Coffeehouse open mic in Winnipeg. I danced to The Immortal Stan Lee (Fairy Tales for Grown Ups, Just Because Someone Has a Superpower, The Sort of Story That I Myself Would Enjoy Reading) by Akira the Don featuring Stan Lee

This is a spontaneous performance in which my dancing is pure improvisation. I did not choreograph or rehearse anything

Lyrics for The Sort of Story That I Myself Would Enjoy Reading:
"One thing I might mention
Most writers
And I think it's an unfortunate thing
They try to write something that they think
A certain audience might enjoy
I've never been able to do that
Because I can't put myself
In the mind
Of other people
I only know what I enjoy
So every time I've written a story
I've always tried to write
The sort of story
That I myself would enjoy reading
The sort of story
That I myself would enjoy reading
A story that would interest me
While I'm writing it
As I'm waiting to find out what happens next
And I can't know what other people think
But I can know what I think
And I can't know what other people think
But I can know what I think
And I feel I'm not that unusual
If there's a type of story I like
There must be lots of people who like the same type of stories
Therefore, I have always written to please myself
Not to please a certain type of audience
The sort of story
That I myself would enjoy reading
The sort of story
That I myself would enjoy reading
Because you can't know
The audience
As well
As you know yourself
And if I write a story
That I'm enjoying while I'm writing it
And I can't wait to see what happens next
Then I'm hoping
That a large proportion of the public
Will feel the same way
And they'll enjoy it too
So to sum it up
I have always tried to please myself
Not other people
And somehow it seems to have worked
Because I guess
I'm not that different than other people
I've always tried to write
The sort of story
That I myself would enjoy reading
The sort of story
That I myself would enjoy reading
The sort of story
That I myself would enjoy reading
The sort of story
That I myself would enjoy reading"
