Cool ya found it π
Those are some awesome sunglasses dude.
Yayyy!!! I love that sunglasses too hehehe thanks friend
You did so well!
Pretty great for NOT being a native English speaker!
TBH: I totally hate this song (just in general), but listened to most of it for you. π Strangely, it's not this version of the song I find creepy. This one is a little more rock and roll.
Keep practicing!
Thanks a lot!!! I appreciate your words!! :P
Congrats @tinypaleokitchen and @alejandra23! And thank you judges - this was a fun contest to participate in:)
NOM NOM

You sing really well! π
However, this isn't karaoke. π You should totally enter OpenMic (look up that tag to find them). There's a HUGE community over there. Welcome to Steemit!π
Good luck!π

Hey @Killerwhale, @enginewitty & @topkpop!
I am totally keen on entering this! I read the rules and stuff but still feel like I am a lil lost with regards to how to enter?
Do I create a video post of me singing a song or whatever and enter it into the contest by tagging as #karaokecontest?
Then do I need to drop the link to my post on this thread here? To enter for the following week?
Then people vote on this thread? or they vote on my link?
Trying to make sense of how it all works :)
Hi there!
Yes. Create a video with you singing to a karaoke track (there are about a million on Youtube). If you want to sing AND play an instrument you should check out OpenMic. There's a lot of exposure over there. π
And yes again. Drop the link to your Post AND EMBED the video in the comments.
They vote on your COMMENT on THIS post.
Just no entries yet this week. The hubs and I JUST recorded and are uploading. Should be in either tonight or first thing in the AM
Do it!
Epiiiic! Thanks for the response, now I just gotta get over this holiday hoarseness haha Strepsils? Homeovox? Tea? Honey? π±
Just do it!
My throat was hurting a bit in the duet I did above with the hubs @chrisroberts.
I'm currently uploading one of me...
Where you at, yo?
Come on!
Hahaha @carrieallen, thank you for the encouragement! I have been sucked up into the sketching world these past few days, voice is feeling a lil better, nothing some solid warming up shouldn't fix
I see you already got a reply, not sure why I didn't get notified of the mention hmm. But looks like you got an answer. I am with you I would get over the hoarseness first in your voice cause I know you are a musician and gotta take care of your voice. I do the same thing :) Hope to see you doing this soon though
Soon Soon! I know where to find you ;)
Great job..
Hi, I invite you to see my first participation!
