Thanks :love:

These are so much fun to listen to. My favourite; BoB's distinctly Kiwi-esque rap skills. :cool:

I think that's even a Kiwi band he's rapping to. And his other song just makes me squirm. xD

Okay, WTF? Is Takara a girl?

Also, Maxx. That sounded so off and horrid I loved it. :P

Finishing up Listening to Hotel California now. I've been going down the list.

You win hard from invoking the genius of Stephen Lynch. Yeah, I basically tried to make Bohemian as ridiculous as humanly possible. I meant what I said at the start; I truly believe Freddy Mercury is going to come down from Heaven and smite me with a rhinestone mic-stand for my transgressions.

Heaven? wasn't he gay...

I would have done a third song, but by the time I'd finally gotten the timing done on "It's raining Men my throat was hurting from all the pre-recording.

I almost did Lullaby though, instead of My Name is Satan.

Edit: And lol at Ara.

Whatever happened to EoFF: The Album? Now is the time.

Regulate or what?

foa, the one in my first pm would work if you copy pasted it I think :( the file name just has spaces in it :(

I'll try right quick.

EDIT: It worked. EVERYONE DON'T FORGET TO CHECK OUT ALLIE'S OTHER SONG.

I laughed the whole way through BoB's rendition of Freak Me. xD

Also, cheers rubah for doing After the Gold Rush. One of my all time favourite songs!

I should have used the fancy-pants audio recording software linked to in the entry thread rather than minute-long midi's. I think it would have been a lot more fun. Oh well...

Mullet, you fail for not doing the entirity of two of those songs. Though they were fun.

*checks in pants* Yep, still female.

Wow, why haven't I been hitting on you all this time?

*Sulks in a corner over missed opportunities*

Also, am I the only one who didn't find BoB's as great as you people?

It was entertaining and all, but wow. I really do have different tastes. :P

Maxx Power terrifies me. It's like, I'm listening to it thinking okay this is quite enjoyable then suddenly he starts bellowing at me out of nowhere :(

You've never been to a karaoke bar, have you? xD

Well, good thing you like it, because I'm so not used to sing at that range, my throat was hurting after it. (I was seriously aiming for the glass cracklin' award with this one?)

Well I didn't see YOU attempting to sing. Step up to the plate or get the fudge out.

I love all the submissions, but Maxx is a freakin' pro. Everything good about karaoke is exactly what Maxx Power is.

I did not expect such a voice from Rubah. Not knowing how she sounds IRL as well, I am impressed.

I however made my votes and stand by them!

no u. :mad2:

It was a compliment! I liked your performance and voted you best male thingy.

I think this is just about the funniest thing ever.

Maxx should win everything, his were brilliant.

Oh and BoB and Mullet doing Freak Me and Chocolate Salty Balls - very disturbing and hilarious at the same time.

Appreciation for all my hard work. :love: This took roughly twenty attempts after spending hours of training my tongue around the quick lyrics. Seriously, I have no idea how Supergroove manage to perform that live. It's insanely difficult.

Looking forward to hearing the rest when I get home. I was there to hear Danielle recording Barbie Girl & Blue. She does Barbie Girl damn well. Shame you guys couldn't see all her acting that went with her singing. xD

I've had a chance to listen to all of the songs now and cast my ballot. I wish more people had made entries. It's fun to hear everyone singing or attempt to sing.

Thanks for setting all of this madness up foaffles! :thumb:
*buys foa a drink so she can spill it on his shoes*

I had so much fun doing those songs but foa seems to have forgotten my third sing I did. :( I've been trying to listen to everyone's songs but they aren't working, when I click the link it loads and then it says it's done but it's blank with no sound? :confused:

Gaby Bernier at Last.fm

rubah at Last.fm

Captain Maxx Power at Last.fm

Baloki at Last.fm

Roto you are god xD


Also Smitten you sing so pretty. I still have some of your crimmus carols saved on my comp xD

I didn't have the option to write anyone else's profile for whatever reason. Probably something to do with ID3 tags.

It plays the songs with Quicktime in my browser. Do you have Quicktime installed? If not, try downloading them and playing them.

You are such an epic failure. :mad2:

Does that make you a winner? D:

Then it ends up working out really well for you! Be happy.

My songs are midi's I played on my computer and recorded over whilst singing, so I doubt there are any tags on my files.

Zomg Captain Maxx Power doing Bohemian Rhapsody was both awesome and scary at the same time! :eek: Oh and it's Raining Men by Neo and Ashley was funny. :p *slowly trying to listen to all*

Holy crap guys. I actually had time to listen to some of these. Maxx has the true karaoke style, but my God can some of you sing.

Your files are wav files so as far as I know, they can't be tagged at all. :P

EDIT: Whoo!

Loony BoB at Last.fm

NeoCracker at Last.fm

smittenkitten at Last.fm

Wow.

Just wow.

I listened to every one of you buggers :p

Maxx, I couldn't finish listening to Bohemian Rhapsody xD

Bawb, smitten... xDDD you guys are meant for each other.

Neo... LOL you are wonderfully bad <3

Takara sounds good... what program did you use to combine all that? :p

Mullet... I thought Neo was as bad as it gets! ;) Hehehe. Then I listened to All Star.

I didn't know rubah could sing, I liked the 2nd song. xD

Baloki I listened to all the girls first and you were one of the first ones I listened to ;) rock on!

Garnie's pretty good!

The same ones Maxx used: Karaoke CD+G Creator to remove the vocals (or at least mute them) from the original songs, and Audacity to record my singing with the music.

Nice~ I really liked your 2nd song x] So pretty.

oh gawd mine is terrible!

Just keepin' it real. :cool:

omg bob and maxx!...I HAVE NEVER LAUGTHED SO HARD!!
thankyou for making this little girly happie!
^^

Maxx's rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody beats even Queen's imho.

Your heretical words sicken me. I hope you drink an old thermometer. :(

I was tempted to make a joke about old thermometers and Queen both having mercury in them, but it's late (early?), and it sounded more witty in my head before I tried to write it down. So I'm just mentionning it.

That was the pun in my post. :bigsmile:

OOOOOOOOOoooooooooOOOOOOOOooooooh. Great minds think alike?

Exactly what I was thinking! Wanna get married?

Wow, tough luck. Maybe next time?

The whole (tagged) EoFF Karaoke album plus album cover will be avalible to download from Index of /~foa for the duration of the competition ^o^

Baloki, that song from Portal is so cute :heart: Nice one :D

BoB, that was a rad cover of Supergroove. :D

These were great to listen to, they really made me smile - and Takara has a gorgeous voice. Hotel California had me singing along. Badly.

I think if there is a second competition people will be less shy and more likely to send in their recordings because they've heard this thread. I might even give it a go and kill everyone's eardrums.

If we do a second competition I suggest we compile a list of songs and people are assigned their song(s) randomly.

Agreed, I'm always up for a challenge.

TJ WHY DIDN'T YOU ENTER ;_;

...also you shouldn't have MSN on when recording, Neocracker xD

For the songs to be assigned, when this comes to be, I vote someone gets "What Is Love" and someone else gets "Never Gonna Give You Up":D

Omg. BoB singing Freak Me was the most hilarious thing I've ever heard. @_@!!

Aww, I wish I were active when you could submit an entry. Super sad face! I'll have to jump on the next singing band wagon, I guess.

Also, assigned songs would rock.

I really feel like having a karaoke right now! After her Captain Maxx Power's songs again. :heart:

:love: Yeah I seriously want like this one to be over, and then another one to start up straight afterwards. I'd like to see this as a monthly thing, with it's own forum and everything. That would rawk. :cool:

Sorry I haven't posted votes yet. Life has been busy. I will soon. I promise.

Boo ya, winnage. Bow before my elite karaoke skills!

BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE.

I just unearthed my lost copy of smittenkitten's first submission! Listen to the secret song segment "I Could Have Danced All Night" from "My Fair Lady" as performed by smitten!

smittenkitten - I Could Have Danced All Night

I'm an idiot for losing this during the competition, but now you all still get to enjoy it! Hurray!

Once again, thanks to all of our performers and a special thanks to Baloki for hosting all of this on his personal webspace and dealing with me being a fool. I had a blast with this and I hope you guys had a great time, even though I'm a total spaz.

Yay!

Dancing Queen/Bohemian Rhapsody were my favourite two so awesome.

Congrats to everyone! And thank you foa for hosting the competition, and Baloki for hosting the files. (Rantzien, I'm honoured you think my rendition of Hotel California was good enough to put on your play list.)

I'm tempted to record something else tomorrow, just for fun. Any suggestion(s)?
