PokèCommunity Singing Contest ☆
brought to you by dragonomega & impo


Welcome to the Pokècommunity 10th anniversary get-together singing contest. Think you have the best voice of our time? Wanting to give Mariah Carey a run for her money? Or just want to show that you can sing? If so, just enter this wonderful contest! n_n

Rules

☆ Do not steal someone else's work and claim it as your own.
☆ You can change your song during the competition, however when it ends the song you have now will be your entry.
☆ When using a backing track do not have any main voices on it, only have back-up singers
☆ You do not have to use backing tracks, you can use your own arrangements.
☆ No bashing anyone else's vocals.
☆ Don't sing anything that isn't in your vocal range, this isn't really a rule but don't try and go for something you know you cannot do.
☆ Attach your file to your post, I'm not too good with file extensions but irrc the ones best to use are; WAV, MP3 and MP4. Sites like Soundcloud are allowed, too. (i'll have to get another word on this )
☆ Make your first post your entry post. After that you may do your 'omg so good' etc posts.
☆ Don't post if you're not entering. Please.
☆ Don't rap
☆ No parody entries. They belong in the parody event -> http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=288241

Judging

☆ Judging will be done by myself and Impo and it will be a simple judging system. At the end of the competition myself and Impo, along with another judge who shall remain nameless for now. n_n We will each score you out of 10 and then add up the points. The top 3 will be crowned the winners. If a tie occurs, the two who have tied (or three or more or w.e) will have to participate in a 'sing-off' or you can just forfeit but I'd rather you enter another song and fight!!

[~Kawaii~]

AND SO I am entering, kicking this off to an awful great start. I'm not the best singer, but hey, I had fun.

If you've spent your life under a rock, it's a cover of Believe by the great Cher.

Enjoy.

☆ -ty- / Someone Like You / http://soundcloud.com/tttheel/adele-20/s-zTGYx

Yeah, yeah, Adele is overdone, but since I am a guy, I hope I can get away with my mediocre cover

[Bluerang1]

Yeah I can't use the "it's my recording device" excuse anymore. The backing track actually makes it better.

Link to the song.

It's too big to be attached.

[EvilSkittles]

I guess I'll join in even though I had to do it off the top of my head.

Praise You with the Dance- Casting Crowns? I just know we sing it at church.

I'll be editing my entry here later, I just wanted to point out that the "Contestants" and the next part of your post is overflowing. I don't know if it's just me, but for reference I'm using the Route 167+ theme.

Here is how it looks like in my screen.

[Kirozane]

OhgodIhopeI'mnottoolate....
I spent all this time trying to make my voice cooperate... It still won't, but I tried my hardest to make it do so...
I'm sorry I sound so bad... but I tried!
Here it is, hopefully

AHAHAHA I FIXED IT

Your link is broken

It's not just you, mine looks the same and I'm using Infernal Smash theme.

[Abnegation]

Oh my god guys this is awesome! Keep them coming! Really enjoying listening to the tracks so far!

[dragonomega]

Quick question, do you have an idea if there will be a second round? I don't know if I want to change my first round entry depending on whether there will be two rounds. Thanks!

[dragonomega]

We did get a decent number of competitors so it's totally doable, buuuut I think it would be unfair to those who want to enter but came on a little late so I think I'll just keep it as a single round that ends on Sunday.

In short, no. However; you can change your entry whenever you like! :)

Thanks! I will think about it over the next couple of days then.

[Forever]

SO since others can enter I realised I kept on complaining about everything else I was trying to sing so I created a new song which dragonomega didn't oppose to??? ANYWAY ATTACHED = Days and Weeks, an original thing I came up with in the shower the other day.

Also sound/quality changes as I move my iPhone around n___n;

[gunnerpow7]

I'm joining! This will be a cover of Good Time by Owl City feat. Carly Rae Jepsen. Here is the link... Sorry for the background buzzing and some jumps with accompanied low pitches... Idek what happened lol..

[Olli97]

So since Alex really wanted me to enter this, and since I was finally able to make it sound good, I decided to do so. Playing on your own instruments were allowed too right, at least otherwise this wouldn't be that good :(

The song is Fact-Fiction by Mads Langer.

Here you go, hope it's alright :D
