    @ GirlLikeMe:
    hehe, i found some tracks for the songs i like on the site you posted, but i'll never spend my real money for nothing.
    ===========

    @ 0-0-0: The probability of me taking part in this game is just roughly 50%, because there's nearly always at least 1 other person in my home at any time and I don't want to be considered an eccentric for recording my own singing voice. If I have an opportunity of being at home alone, I'll record a song and send it to you.

    I prefer no background music. Easier to record. It's also easier to sing without music. Without background music, u can sing whatever key that suits u, but with background music, u have to follow the bg music's key.

    Sigh. If I take part, I also need to find a better mike that doesn't make me sound like a 12 year old.

    LOL I just tried and I think I might have to quit..SOOOOO horrible. I know why people look at me funny when we go sing karoke hahaha...What happened was that I used a recorder (that I record my lectures), went to youtube, find the video, and then sang along, but when the actual product came out, you can't hear the background music/original singer well, and only me! And it's horrible!! Gah....

    It didn't seem so bad when the background music was there when I go sing karoke. It's so sad since I play piano and I should be able to carry a tune, yet I can't =(

    lol. This sounds like such a fun idea. . .but is everyone on the list really entering? Seems like they're put up there against their will?! XD lol. Have fun and good luck to the contestants.


    ah. . .if you really want to hear people's voice. . .probably no bg music would be best cuz most of the time, bg just gives an illusion that someone can sing well because you can hardly hear their voice over the music. just a thought. ^^

    LOL no one is put up against their will. It's just a matter of persuasion and motivation.

    c'mon, dont be so disappointed. if theres a will, there must be a way. shouldnt let your first try put you down. plus, not everyone entering has good voices. they just want to have fun. You should too

    Lol, I'll think about it later after I finish my essay and try again. Someone said their microphone was broken. Can't you just use a recorder and then transfer it to a .wav file or something? And some mp3's have the recording option.

    I say no. We should only focus on the voice itself. If the two voices sound equally in comparison, the second method might be deciding which song they sang we like more. And that would be unfair. For example, I would probably vote for someone who sang a known Jimmy Lin song then someone who sang a rap song or something by some no name. So my opinion, no background music allowed.

    Background music would be like karaoke right? Some might not have the luxury of having karaoke to do their singing, so it should be no background music, so everyone is on fair playing level.

    i think no bg is better since it allows the individual to do their own renditions or their own style. BG only hinders

    I have another idea, I think people shouldn't have to identify ourselves at any point. There should be a blog set-up (maybe 0-0-0 would like to do the honors)? where people anoynymously leave comments with a download file of their sample. And then someone can host it and leave the links in spcnet where voting will take place.

    And once the winner is annoucned, the winning member can identify themselves whereas whereas the identities of the rest of the people can be protected.

    Actually we should have 2 separate categories: 1 for the serious contestants, and 1 fun category for people to make fun of themselves doing comedic versions of popular songs.

    Lav, if your singing is anywhere near as good as your JY fighter rankings, I can't wait to hear it.
