Sing Along Club

Round 1 song announced!

At the top of the voting for Round 1 is “My Freeze Ray”!

Just reminding you of a couple guidelines:

• Record yourself a capella, by listening through headphones as you record. I can only mix you in if your track is a capella.
• Try to record yourself loudly, but also be aware of distortion or mic popping. In past rounds I’ve tried to compensate for really quiet tracks by bringing down all the other ones to match it, but there’s only so much I can do.
• As they say in High School Musical, we’re all in this together.
  If you’re at all reluctant or self-conscious about the way you sing, don’t be.
  I’m going to do my best to mix the track in such a way that everyone can be heard without anyone standing out, so that we sound as much like a community as possible.

Email your finished a capella tracks to singalongclub@gmail.com by 9:00 PT on November 1st.

Gentle suggestion for this particular song:
In the dialogue part, might I gently suggest that we split between males and females, with the men singing the Neil part and the women singing the Felicia part? Like
     DUDES: “Love your hair.”
     LADIES: “What?”
     DUDES: “No – I ju – I love the – air… Huh!”
     ALL: Anyway…
But please do not apply this gender split to the whole song, that would be foolish.

Laundry day
See you there
Under things
Tumbling
Wanna say
Love your hair
Here I go
Mumbling
With my freeze ray I will stop the world
With my freeze ray I will
find the time to find the words to

Tell you how
How you make
Make me feel
What’s the phrase?
Like a fool
Kinda sick
Special needs
Anyways

With my freeze ray I will stop the pain
It’s not a death ray or an ice beam
That’s all Johnny Snow
I just think you need time to know

That I’m the guy to make it real
The feelings you don’t dare to feel
I’ll bend the world to our will
And we’ll make time stand still

That’s the plan
Rule the world
You and me
Any day

Love your hair

(What?)

No – I ju – I love the – air… Huh!

Anyway
With my freeze ray I will stop -
