Who sings jenny 8675309?

The phone number belonged to Jenny. The song was performed by Tommy Tutone and released in 1982. Alex Call wrote it, and he has stated that there was no "Jenny" in real life. It was all an exercise in composition - and made for a good song. The phone number was a valid one in a number of different area codes, and there were more than a handful of angry people who were taking calls at all hours from people who were asking for Jenny. In an interview, Call, who shares songwriting credits with Jim Keller, said they took some serious heat over the situation and were told in no uncertain terms never to do anything like that again.

Can you lose your singing voice permenantly?

Yes. And no. Technique is the key to not loosing your singing voice and causing damage to the vocal folds. Vocal rest and (in extreme cases) surgery in the form of removing vocal nodules cures such problems (not good). Vocal nodules are pollups or blisters that can form on the focal folds (chords) due to inproper overuse. Proper singing technique is very difficult to master. Because the act of singing takes on very personal psychological and spiritual connotations, using the body as an instrument is a very delicate, vulnerable, and liberating experience. Muscle memory, posture and breath control are key factors in singing. To not loose ones singing voice it is vital to have a comprehensive understanding of the body: the skeleton, the respiratory system, and the vocal apparatus. Open a book on the human body. Explore Feldenkrais and esp. Alexander Technique to understand how to use your body with maximum efficiently and avoid damaging the voice. Instances of damaging singing inc. a hoarse voice singing, a sore throat and back pain. Think of grounding your feet and raising your head, so as you sing you are being pushed/pulled both down and upwards. Not loosing your voice will take gathering info. from many sources and people of different disciplines. One voice teacher seldom has all of the answers. Lastly, discover your diaphragm. You don't have concious control over your diaphragm, but learning what it does and how you can use it through breathing is vital to good singing technique. After you train your body, you can sing from your heart. Singing is spiritual athletisism.

Justin was in a singing competition just for fun. He put videos of the competition on youtube for his friends and family because they couldn't watch the competition. He started getting millions of hits and he was found by his manager, Scooter. Scooter flew Justin out to Atlanta and by chance he met Usher there but wasn't able to sing for him.
