    • hmm... would it be acceptable if I did harmony to my own voice? :3
    (as in, record me signing harmony to my recorded singing... >.>')

    • Oh my this isn't working out for me. I'm not sounding good on tape. I need the house empty! Does the competition end on Sunday or Thursday?

    • Official Entry! LOOK!

    I'll stop annoying with my life issues and post this one now. I've figured that whatever I do, I'll still not sound as good as I do real-life because I'm using a phone mic. I need a studio. Also forgive me for my proudness but I do believe I'm a pretty darn good singer. Just need to be better at holding notes.

    Anyway, here's a shortened version of Glee Cast - Don't Stop Believin' I try to make backing music with my voice as I can't really be bothered with recording my voice and then then adding the backing in audacity. It just didn't work the first time I tried :( So yeah, the Entry should be attached :)

    • If I had a mic, I'd do this, even if my voice is just... barely decent. Anyways, the song I would do would be "Evo" from Digimon Tamers (Japanese Version of the 3rd series).

    • I may enter but I a few things to do before I do:

    - Ask my dad to hook up this mini-recording studio he got me for Christmas (I didn't think I'd ever find a use for it).
    - Learn to play the piano part and sing at the same time.
    - Find a decent camera to record myself playing/singing.
    - Learn lyrics to Home Sweet Home (Mötley Crüe thank you very much).

    What I don't get is why people post here saying "I would do this, but I can't." If you can't participate, then don't post.

    The best advice I can give to anybody that doesn't wanna buy a mic is to use someones Mac. I'll be using Garage Band on my friends MacBookPro, but all Macs come packed with good mics in them.

    I won't be recording mine until Wednesday.

    • I admire your confidence ^.^
    The only thing is, you're never sure just who's going to swoop in and win it all... Which is why I'm afraid to put mine up >.>'...
    Anywho, good luck to everyone!

    (Oh, and I was lucky enough to be able to use the mic on my mac... makes life easier...)

    • Oh ho ho... is that a challenge? >;3
    I do love Relient K, though...

    I'll probably put mine up tonight... Though I'm still not sure whether I'm allowed to sing harmony to my own singing or not xD

    • Hmmm. I'll definitely need to enter this. :'D

    edit:
    GRAHH FILE TOO BIG EVEN AFTER EXTRACTING THE MP3 >_____o

    if a youtube video is okay, I guess I'll enter my version of "Us" by Regina Spektor.
    sorry for crap quality, was taken on very bad webcam. >_o
    I'm also playing the piano, so... @ w@;; multi-tasking!
    sorry for my ugly mug, as well >///>;

    • Good luck to you then! I'm already entered, so I can't do anything now but sit back and watch to see who wins. The last 30 seconds of mine are the most wordy, and worst of all, I was operating on about 50% breath so I could barely get the words out. Mine is a one-take, A Capella song with no editing, so I think it's pretty good for those circumstances. I've come a long way since I started singing a few months ago. I can actually finish a song now :D

    Just a thought 'cuz I'm going into Music Ed next year >w>;
    To help your breathing, posture = KEYYY.
    If you're slumped over, your diaphragm is gonna be working over-time.
    Sit up straight, shoulders back, head straight up and down.
    Also, if you over-enunciate too much, or move your mouth unnecessarily, you lose air that way.
    You don't have to move your mouth so much to get the words out. C: And you don't have to have your mouth wide open to be loud, either.
    Also, doing exercises, such as taking in a deep breath and slowly releasing it on "ssss" for as long as you can can help build up your stamina c:
    Just... trying to be helpful Cx
