Ok so here's the idea... This thread is the official Woyano Karaoke Party
where woyano people get to put up their best ( or worst ) karaoke...

I found a site that let's you record audio or audio AND video if you are brave :)
The site is called SingShot however you don't need to use singshot if you have other means of sending your karaoke up to woyano but singshot seemed easy enough for everyone. http://www.singshot.com/index.html

TIP : I can't stress how important it is if you can use headphones... the feedback echo can really ruin a fantastic performance. If you have a portable MP3 player grab the headphones! it will make a huge difference. If you have a hard time hearing yourself leave one ear out.

 


For quick access to all the song I'll update this post with links to the tracks.

Moosetracks           Crazy - Patsy Cline

Georgie                     Hey Jude - The Beatles

Tequila Rose           Angel - Sarah McLachlin

IV (me)                      It's No Good - Depeche Mode

Jbravo                      Bad To The Bone - George Thoroughgood

Poptart007              Torn - Natalie Imbruglia

JV                              Bruce Willis WIll Save the Human Race - Original Creation

Dr Fallon                  Lucky Man - Original Creation

Sean Creol              Crazy Patsy Cline

Ragados                  Should I stay or Should I Go - The Clash

Sunshineinoz          At Last - Etta James


Let's keep the party rockin! get yours up here!

      Well I would have sooner but I lost my voice doing Head Like Hole over the weekend that's what I get for screaming like Trent lol. But I'll put one up ASAP.

      I'm considering doing a karaoke video of a Cure song lol in a spoofy fun way with make up and all. Of course I'll HAVE to do Depeche Mode too... and If I can swing it a duet on Love Shack with Tequila Rose ;)

          Well we're working out the details... so far my suggestion is for her to sing the girl parts on SingShot then I play it back with her part on it and record it to my computer then in my studio add the male part... complex but it's one possible way... If singshot doesn't provide a way to do it directly

          OH and I meant to mention to everyone USE HEADPHONES when you record or the sound from your speakers will be re recorded back through and it will sound pretty bad. :)

            So here it is. Proof that I have more guts than brains. Keep in mind I'm getting over the flu, so it's a little pitchy. http://www.singshot.com/m...%3D&performanceType=true#

                              Come on everybody, use that coffee break at work to hit up the karaoke and decide which song you're gonna do. Then, when you get home find a nice quiet spot and sing like you're in the karaoke bar after one too many margaritas! I did it with no margaritas (and I'm regretting it now) *L*

                                            you can rate them right in this thread..... if you look to the right of the heading of each post it says # votes and then an up or down arrow I figured people would want to vote and thought that made sense to use so it's all contained in one topic

                                            Cheers!

                                                Ok so I started all this so I suppose it's my turn... my voice was in a bit better shape from this weekends screaming festival... but you can tell it's still a bit scratchy...

                                                ok let's see if this pasted code plays the file here
                                                The song is "It's No Good" by Depeche Mode it's not on SingShot I had to do it myself since they didn't have the song.

                                                ok embeded flash objects don't show in posts (security I guess?)

                                                You'll have to go here to listen

                                                  Alright. Better late than never. This is my first unofficial public karaoke performance, so be nice. :-) I had to use the built in mic on my laptop, so the quality isn't the best. Don't stop listening part way through -- I get a little better as I go -- plus there's more vocals at the end after a 31 Measure instrumental. BTW, I'm new here. I'll try get something in my profile ASAP.

                                                    Ditto on your version of "It's No Good"! I thought I was listening to the real thing. Really felt it. Everyone that shared themselves here today did an awesome job. This is a great thread!

                                                      Thanks! David Gahn is one of my biggest influences.
                                                      For the fun of it I'm also going to do a Video of me gooffing on a Cure song :)
                                                      I'm thinking maybe In Between Days or maybe Friday I'm In Love

                                                      Glad you like the thread - It just seemed like a fun thing to do lol

                                                      Can't wait to hear more. I want to do "My Sharona", but they don't have the song on SingShot.

                                                            Does it count if it was a song that I wrote and recorded with my old band 5 years ago...?

Pity I can't go out and buy a better voice. In all honesty, I have a horrible, horrible singing voice. I promise to choose a short song to keep your listening agony brief.

I don't use my PC for digital recording. I'll post a new topic later on a how to use Garageband to roll your own karaoke and I'll look into the PC thing and post that too :)

I'd like to take part but a) I haven't a clue how to use singshot and b) the only internet access I have is at work. If there is another way I could do it I would.
