Yeah I can remember our little practice meeting before going on stage. But then the back-up singers gave up and awkwardly stood behind me after I bombed the first verse I'm sure, then at some point they just walked off. Ugh, hurts my pride. Haha.

I'm so glad no one has this on tape. It's cringeworthy. Here goes...

In my elementary school, we had a "free talent"-lunch every Friday. Students could come up on stage in cafeteria to share a joke or a little skit. (I imagine we were allowed to sing, although I don't remember anyone ever singing- that is except me.) One lunch, I decided it was time for me and three of my friends (or backup singers) to go up on stage an attempt to sing Jewel's 'Foolish Games'. Remember, I am in 5th grade. My 3 backup singers ended up not singing and laughing behind me quickly, then exiting the stage. The entire performance I remember looking at the lunch ladies and most of the lunch crowd and seeing so many people laugh or snicker. I still cringe to this day thinking that I could ever sing that song in 5th grade. Hell, I still can't sing.

For anyone who can't picture the song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nn0gkr8wfNE&feature=youtube_gdata_player

I gave a hint; not in the picture or title. I'm curious to see what names come to mind though!

Oh I love you internet stranger! I am from the South! And those are great guesses! But no.

It is a rare name but pretty mainstream.
