Title: Small singing contest (Updated)
Post by: Johannes on 2012 Sep 06, 19:21:31
Yes, a singing contest... The winner gets... something.


So the main idea is to sing a Finnish song.
The contest time: about 7 days. Ends on 14th day, at 20:00 GMT+2


New Rules:
You have to sing a song written by Jonathan Coulton.
Contest ends on 23th day, at 18:00 (or 6pm) GMT+2.

Prize:
I'll draw the any pony you want, based on the song you sang.

Don't be afraid!


Pretty much everything is pronounced like it's written.

Here's how A, E, I, O, U, Y, Ä & Ö are pronounced.

I hope that this'll help a little.

I would love love love to see how this turns out, but there is no way I could accomplish that. D;

Well, this turned out to be a fail. :c
It's undestandable. Finnish is quite hard language (I've read that it's second hardest).

So... I'm gonna change the rules.

I've listened Jonathan Coulton's songs pretty much lately, so let's make this Jonathan Coulton song contest thing!
Sing a any song written by J. Coulton.

Contest ends at 23th day, 18:00 GMT+2.
Winner gets a picture. It'll be based on the song and it'll have the pony you want. So choose wisely.

After researching the songs by that man, I have come to the conclusion that they all have naughty words. So I won't be taking part in dis contest. Sowwy!  >A<

Future Soon!



Don't really know a whole lot of songs from him honestly, but from the ones I know, that's the only one without bad words.

Edit: Yup, I don't really know any songs from him without bad words.

well, i was gonna do future soon, but given various factors, i've gone with another one of my favorites, Skullcrusher Mountain.

I apologize if it sounds rushed and bad. I literally only had a small window of opportunity to record this, so i was only able to get like, 2 takes in, and this was the better of the two. hope you like it, anyways.

i may do more of these at my own leisure. this was fun, and i LOVE JoCo.

So, um, I feel really bad, but I just can't get this song down in time. :c I'm not even close.

Post by: Julius on 2012 Sep 23, 20:57:09

Though I really haven't had a whole lot of time to record. I'll see what I can do later.
