Don't call yourself stupid, not knowing how to use technology is typical, not a sign of stupidity. And there's no problem with .wav files. Most people seem to be using Yousendit, (http://www.yousendit.com/) but I'm sure any file storage service would be fine.

[Jack Bond]

Thx. I'm gonna go with ripway cause I think it's faster. Also, I said Arkansas twice because I had to stop it in the middle and probably forgot where I was.

I don't know my accent. I think it's more of a mix of other accents since I've lived in Florida, Colorado, Arizona, and New Jersey.

List 1
List 2

I sound too young for my age.

[Warrior 4 Jesus]

Good job Jack. You don't sound too young for 13. Most people sound like they have a high voice at that age. Good job at getting "Noarlunga" pronounced correctly.

[Doe Johnson]

By the way, since I didn't reply to this earlier, I think that'd be fun! What did you have in mind?

Well, something we both know obviously. Someone suggested Zippity Do Da I was in choir for most of my life (although I haven't been in 3 years) so I somewhat know some older songs, but I don't know which ones you would know too.

[Warrior 4 Jesus]

If someone's willing to provide lyrics for Zippity Doo Da I wouldn't mind giving it ago. Just be warned I'm not a singer, but hopefully I'm not awful.

I know how Zippity Doo Da goes, I'd just have to look up the lyrics. You know how you can find out if I know a song? You can ask.

W4J, I'll put up the lyrics when I find 'em.

[Warrior4Christ]

Now for the accumulated somewhat-late comments...

Doe, can I also be a fan of you bloopers?

What is Speak n Spell?

MSP, your Meatball song sounds like tha Spongemonkeys!!

Myoti, you don't sound heaps Southern.... (not that I can judge it properly...)

The carmel vs caramel thing was indescribably hilarious!! I was literally laughing all the way through it and on subsequent listenings.

Sakura, this is what wikipedia has to say (because it has more authority than dictionaries):
Carmel is also a frequent misspelling of caramel.

So I guess MS is right.




Doe, nookyler...XD

Rachel, I was almost expecting a Scottish accent, but I was wrong...
I think you sounded the most Southern so far.

soul alive, you don't sound like a hick, and you pronounced Amen properly! Noarlunga was very close too, good effort.

TM - "...under all this snow, (goat-like)mmmyes"

Wasn't "I am the Very Model of a Modern Major General" also from Veggietales - Lyle the Kindly Viking?

Jack Bond - yeah, ok, you've told me twice that it's Ar-kan-saw.
Noarlunga? That was pretty close too!

I think there are heaps of voices here that would be great for like, reading a story out on audio tape or announcing or something...

[Scepth]

MS and TM has an awesome voice. Sakura-chan you have a cute voice. =D

[Jack Bond]

You understand now why people often mistake me for a girl on the phone and stuff. (Someone even called me a lady when I was trick-or-treating about 3 years ago, and I didn't even say anything to them.)

MS- Amazing! You've got to sing more often!... or at least be a professional sound editor XD

[Sakura15]

Lol I dont think so, but thank you ^-^

Lol, glad you enjoyed it =P haha.

teh, details

[mastersquirrel]

Lol I dont think so, but thank you ^-^

You'll have to excuse Sakura Scepth. She denies the truth of her voice.

And now, I present the third installment in the album Proverbial Socks. I really love this song, though it really only has two people singing. I had to kinda come up with what the music would sound like, and I'm probably gonna redo this one eventually, but for now I present:

Somewhere Out There

Really there's supposed to be a girl singing in the song, but I can't do a girl voice, so I just made it all the guy's level.

BTW, Sakura! Who was right? C'mon. Who was right?

[Sakura15]

Meh, whatever =P lol.

Jack, I can tell your a guy, even if your voice is light.

Heeey! I know this song!

Good job! as always ^-^

ME! I'm right! hahahahaha!

[mastersquirrel]

Heeey! I know this song!

ME! I'm right! hahahahaha!

One of my favorite songs of all time, though I'm not too sure about how it came out...

Nope! You're wrong! About who's right, and the carAmel too!

[Sakura15]

I think it came out great ^-^

Nope nope! Carmel carmel carmel!!!!

[Jack Bond]

I'd do singing except. I have this problem, I switch between bass and uhh... something else 'cause my voice just doesn't go too high or too low... well, while singing anyway. You really should hear how high my voice goes.

Haha, one of my younger guy friends can scream sooo high pitched...it could shatter glass

[Jack Bond]

actually, did you know, it's not how high but how matched you yell. if you flick the glass and hear the ding it makes, if it makes an audible ding, you have to yell at that exact pitch, loud enough to break the glass.

http://h1.ripway.com/JackBond/squeek.wav
There's the highest squeek I could muster.
woops... wait a minute! Daily bandwidth limit! This is the first thing I've uploaded all day! Oh well, I'll try it at that other place just a second

btw, it's spelled caramel. It can be pronounced (CARE-a-mel), (CARE-a-ml) or (CAR-ml)

I'd try and help you out with this, but I learned either the second soprano or alto part (can't remember how many parts the version had) from a slightly different arrangement. So I wouldn't really know some of the major sections (plus I think it was my Freshman year of high school that we sang it!)


Wow...people are fans of my bloopers...are they really all that entertaining?

[Jack Bond]

Ok, I'm gonna try this, lol so embarassing but... everything in an English accent... as best I can... except caramel, and rural areas. cant do those right. Also, there are certain points where I'm not doing it English enough or start slipping into Austrailian accent... lol!
Anyway, here it is...

You mean with "Somewhere Out There"? Your chorus did this song? I was just going by ear. If you'd like to help that'd be great!
