Bah. If this cover for my girlfriend doesn't WORK soon, I'm gonna have to cop out.

Stupid Karaoke track being stereo and I need mono for some dang reason.

February 4th! I'll put it up for Valentines day!

Now that the deadline is a real thing I immediately resent it.

EDIT: But really we need our best singer to provide a vocal template for the rest of the people ASAP. Right now everything is held up on that.

I suggest one person sing it (probably the writer of the lyrics since he knows how they match up to the beat in his head?), and everyone use that as a guideline as far as pitch and pacing. o3o

I agree Vix,
Having a template to work off of would be ideal. If you can get a hold of one from Zagglezig, that would be great. If for whatever reason they can't produce one, I could make one myself. If need be, we can run it past Zagglezig to see if it's what he was going for.

Yeah, I'm not the best by any means, but I've been trying to help.
Expected to be done with this last week, but oh well. Hopefully this helps a bit.

Also, here's my rough draft that I used to help me synch my changes for the video. It's way rougher than I'd like to share, but time is something of the essence now and I don't know if I'll be able to re-record myself tonight or tomorrow without bothering anyone.

I do plan on trying to get a better recording for the final version, but hopefully all this gives you guys an idea of what I had in mind.

OMG THAT'S FANTASTIC! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU MADE A SINGALONG VERSION JAKALE O-O

I'm so tweeting this. Hopefully the ease of following it will make more people join in!

The sing along video is great. I think that will be a huge help.

So, seeing as a deadline has been set, I assume you'll be mixing and all that Vix? If so, than I can just worry about getting my personal recording done and sent in. Should be too hard.

Also, just wanna clear something up before I record. When pronouncing Jesu, are we going with a hard J or more of a Y sound? I only ask because I've heard it both way quite a bit. Just thought I'd ask.

Good thing to ask, Jrn!

I would be mixing, sure, my only request is that if anyone's audio is particularly scratchy or anything, send it to petro to clean it up? I think it was Petro who volunteered...either way, it'd make things a lot easier.

That was for the other project but I guess I can do this one too. Not many people take me up on it anyhow.

I asked JO about the pronunciation of her screen name, but she never got back too me. I guess it'll just have to be up in the air then.

Petro · **Posted:** Sat Jan 28, 2012 12:17 pm

I'm about 90% sure its yeɪ-zu (yayzu). Butchered latin of "Jesus".

TehJrn · **Posted:** Sat Jan 28, 2012 6:11 pm

I assumed this too (that's how she always used to say it), but I've heard a lot of people more recently using a hard J sound. I'm probably just splitting hairs tho. It probably won't be a big issue. Alright, I'll record my take sometime early next week. Is there a way Vix usually has audio sent to her? (Sorry If I'm asking dumb questions. It's been a while...)
