Yes, what the heck happened with that?
Me want to hear some songs!

Apparently my filenames are case sensitive out of nowhere. The files were in the directory, but since the "R's" were not capitalized it said the tracks didn't exist. That's really odd, considering it was never case sensitive before.

Anyway, it works now...

Track 1: I hate when people sing this song for karaoke, especially when they don't attempt to sing that high pitched bit Amy does toward the end. You are the first person, I can actually GIVE credit to for attempting this song, pulling it off well, and not being afraid to freaking try and hit the notes, thank God for you, I swear. It also seems to be a difficult song to sing well. I was under the impression that you fell flat in a few places, but you are officially my favorite person ever for attempting this and actually pulling it off WELL. You're amazing, seriously.

Track 2: Ooooooo a boyyy!

You need to find the SOUL of your voice. I've often heard educated vocal people talk about a head voice and a chest voice, and to me it sounds like you're only using a head voice (I'm certainly not knowledgeable to say so for sure), but my point is that I feel like you have a bigger range outside of what you were using. It sounds like you were only using part of your voice, and the result of that is you come off sounding flat and monotone the entire time. But I'm so happy you entered! It made my day hearing a guy. Guys that sing are way sexy, and your voice isn't bad at all. This is good.

Track 3: Country! What a darling voice you have. It reminds me of a few asian singers (random). I've never heard this song before, but I enjoy your voice. It's very soft and delicate, incredibly feminine. It sounded real awkward though with that backup vocal of the guy because he's got such a low/deep voice and your voice is just MILES away from his... just too different. So it was strange hearing him, and I also found it kind of distracting from you. Dude, your voice is so pretty though. <3

Track 4: Oh man, another country one? Do you love me? Do you wanna be my friend? And if you do, well then don't be afraid to take me by the hand, if you want. I think this is how love goes... Check Yes or No. <3 I so love this song.

Stupid country. I think you were talking through most of it rather than singing though, lol. You've got to risk pulling out of your comfort song. Maybe it's because you were trying to keep your voice deep because it's sung by a guy? You could've still rocked this song with a high, feminine range, IMO. Your voice needs like... an injection of confidence. I get this image of you singing, but being all meek and shy about it. Don't be afraid to blow my ears out, yo.

Hooray for karaoke!

Track 1. Blew. My. MIND. OMG! Amazing!! You pulled that one off really well!

Track 2. Yay boy karaoke! I think you needed to add a bit more "oomph" to this one. You sang it well, but it was monotonous...

Track 3. OMG COUNTRY! <3 You have a very cute voice! And the song is one of my faves.

You really pulled this one off. *impressed*

Track 4. I think you sounded like you didn't want to be heard singing. Next time, if you participate, screw what everyone thinks of you and let her RIP! the song was a good choice, but next time, be heard!

**Melanie** · 07-13-2008, 03:34 PM

Faith Hill and George Strait all in one week...and you call yourselves rockers!

Love it! <3

Props to all!

Good luck everyone.

So I would like to say that I thought everyone did a good job. However #1 blew me away as usual.

And #3 was just awesome!
