Okay, now there's a seat.

-Just there.

Uh-huh? Okay?

Take a look.

Your fans wanna hear you sing.

I told you. I-I can't sing my own songs.|I never could.

Well, that's too bad,|because they've requested to hear your songs.

Be gentle on the keyboard.|I borrowed it from the club.

You did all this|just to help me sing?

I thought maybe we could cure|that stage fright I've heard so much about.

Kevin, I wish you could.

Come on, let me try.

Tell me what it feels like.

You really wanna know?

Yeah.

You asked for it.

What are you doing?

The only way I can show you...

is to make you...

really... nervous.

The first thing that happens...

is my heart starts to race.

Good.

Racing heart. Yep.

- Got it.|- And then...

my entire body starts shaking.

Shaking body.|I'm-- I'm getting that. Yeah.

And...

then everything gets... a bit...

cloudy.

Clouds are definitely|rolling in.

Then I start...

losing control.

Well, how long|does this usually last?

Oh, it's been known|to last all night.

- That must be horrible.|- It's excruciating.

I think that audience got more|than they paid for, really.

What's "L.M.S." stand for?

Lynn Marie Sanford.

It was my mom's guitar.

She died five years ago.

She moved to New York to be|a singer when she was my age.

She came pretty close|to the big time.

Well, what happened?

She hated the stage.

She said it was the scariest|place in the world.

Sounds familiar.

You really want me to sing?

Just tell me|what I have to do.

Disappear.

All right. No problem.

I don't like to

Be alone in the night

Hear I'm wrong|when I'm right

And I don't like to

Have the rain on my shoes

But I do love you

But I do love

You

I don't like to

See a sky painted grey

And I don't like when

Nothing's going my way

be the one with the blues but I do

If you wanna write a song.|If you want to be like a serious songwriter,

you simply gotta go|with the Mac.

Laptop. You can lay your tracks down|on a blank CD, and you're done.

Do you--|Do you have a payment plan?

your head upon -

My shoulder when you sleep

- Come on, Cammie!

Oh, I do

And I don't like to

Hear I'm wrong when I'm right

And I don't like to

Have the rain on my shoes

But I do love you

- Hey! -

What are you doing?

What are you,|brain damaged?
