What talents do you have?

For me, I have the talent of drawing for sure and I can make a comic out of it.
Yet the one thing I seemed to have realised that I could do is that I could is beatbox. (But it's not the best).

Prepare to be deafen by me.

I think that it would be neat, to post a video of me, playing 'All Day and All Of The Night' on the drums, but I can't get hold of the right type of camera.

haha, SuperboyIan!
I guess you are next on Britains got talent :P
Your beatbox is cool. In fact I had the idea to make a beat video out of "natural sounds" like that. I should honestly make that idea real one day
Oh yeah you got my subby, I had that idea too for a while, thanks for reminding me ;-)

Aww thanks... I wouldn't exactly think I'm adorable, but I'm surprised you thought I was.
My accent actually pretty much sucks tbh, I rather have a Caribbean accent.

Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses, just focus more on the positive notes to be able to find a talent, I'm pretty sure there is something that you are good at, it can be anything.

I could enter in Britain's got talent, but the chances are that I would not make it into the finals, I have other talents anyway so I don't think there is anything for me to lose.

And you're welcome and thanks for subscribing. :)

I'm a rapper. I make my own beats (and write lyrics, but that goes without saying). I also beatbox. And write various things (co-wrote a webseries called Monsters Anonymous). Also I made a puppet.

I sing.

And I play the flute and piano and draw a little bit and paint.

I wish there was a Canada's Got Talent but there's not.

People have always been complimenting me on my writing skills. I think that's because I have better luck getting my thoughts down on paper than actually saying them aloud. I guess writing is how I best express myself.

I also have a talent for speaking backwards. :)

sorry but there were no applicable buttons on your poll. i have no real talents, but i have a few semi-useful "apps"- like perfect pitch that has become imperfect as i have aged- my sense of pitch has shifted upwards by 3 semitones [due to age-related shrinkage of the cochlea], so i have to mentally detune downwards [imperfectly] when i tune something - but i still get 'er done. i can also make my uvula voluntarily retract upwards, as though i were making it do chin-ups. i can flare my nostrils on command, one or the other or both simultaneously. i can do the vulcan peace sign. i can flap one or both of my ears. i can do esophogeal speech, for short phrases. i can make convincingly authentic [but non-smelly] hand-to-mouth flatulence noises. i can make a cat purr loudly by rhythmically scrolling my fingertips through its cheek/jowl area between its mouth and ears. i can make my tongue into a "U" shape [some folk lack the gene to allow this]. i can [somewhat clumsily] trill ["roll"] my "R's" both dentally and via the uvular route. i can make minimally tuneful noise emit from any brass musical instrument larger than a trumpet [my lips are too fat to play trumpet and french horn], as well as any woodwind instrument larger than an oboe [same lip-size reason]. i can ineptly play simple melodies on most musical instruments and simple tunes and rhythms on single [individual] percussion instruments, 'cept for piano and strings for which i lack the manual dexterity to play. i can trim my own hair, a truly useful and economical skill indeed. i can shoot left or right-handed [but not hit anything 'cept by accident]. am largely ambidexterous 'cept for brushing and writing. ok, i will stop now :oops:

You have a beautiful voice Dots. :alien:
My sister use to charge me by the hour to rent her flute so I could play it. I believe now that she was upset that I didn't have to take lessons to play it. My mother still has the written contract my sister and I made up about it. I believe I paid her .50 cents an hour and later she tried to raise it to .75 cents but I refused. Then I just waited til she forgot about it and went to a sleep over. That way I would play it all I wanted and free of charge. :mrgreen:

Holy smokes.... 8O You have real talent there. :D

I'm pretty sure there is Canada idol though, they do pretty much the same thing, apart from using equipments and that and it's just mainly focuses on singing.
