we are doing a big concert where we sing 3 hours worth of awesome 80's songs

and tomorrow are auditions for the solos which is just someone sings the whole song-solo

this is the first concert that I've done where people do the full song by themself, i hear the concert is extremely awesome and i will post videos here when its done
they arent really full songs to keep the concert quick we do like 2 minutes of each song

tomorrow im auditionng for two songs
man in the mirror-michael jackson (first like two minutes)
every breathe you take- the police (first like two minutes)

and a possible duet with my good friend erika who is an amazing singer
sabby knows the whole story on her :)
we dont know what song we will try if we do

Every breath you take is a great song. It might be hard to do it justice though. I'm not a fan of Man in the Mirror so I'd go with The Police for sure.

Either way good luck and have fun.

3 hours worth of awesome 80's songs

out of the music from that entire decade, i wasn't sure if a grand total of 3 hours of awesome music existed.

if you wanted the concert to be really great, i would recommend replacing a few pop songs with Can I Play with Madness by Iron Maiden, Poison by Alice Cooper, and Smooth Up in Ya by the BulletBoys

None of those are better than The Police.

i know...i was being vexatious.

but imagine a high school choir singing iron maiden or judas priest...sweet, and if during the judas priest song, some kid offed him or herself...oh man, that would be wicked.

That would be hillarious.
i would love to see that.

I was putting some songs on my little brothers PSP for him (nothing to hard core just some songs he wanted, so i downloaded them for him)
when i found out that he has some ICP on there.

...Aparently he has been going around school singing "ICP - My axe."

My mums gonna flip!

Though my axe would be a funny chior song
(check it on youtube)

Damn man you can't remember the words to "every breath you take"? If I had my xbox online I could've sang it to you until you remembered. I'm sure the other people in the game would've loved it.

I know all the words to every step you take
(the dedication to BIG)
I used to sing it on karrioke when i was like 9
(shame)

I remember trying to sing Meatloafs "two out of three"
and UB40s "Kingston town"
That was last year

None of them worked.
Half wy through Kingston town i gave the mic back and sat down and downed my vodka.

Maybee il just stick to my usuall song
"no woman , no cry"

Oh the shame !

I know the words to a lot of really bad songs. I blame retail stores for having no taste in the music they play.
Btw I found it funny that K-mart played that Third Eye Blind song where they say "Tie me to the bed post", that's fun for the whole family right there!

I was blushing when I was in Asda (our version of wall-mart, but ours is better lol)
because they were playing -
"let me lick you up and down,
till you say stop,"
I think its called "Freaky" or somthing.

I was kinda hunning to it,
but I heard some little girl say "ai! mum, whats this song about?"

alright so monday, tuesday and wednesday this week we had rehearsal for the show and i had to sing "man in the mirror" in front of everyone in choir, i hated it and i sounded horrid

thursday-opening night of show, i did alright but my voice cracked so i would have given it a 6/10

friday- day 2 went better but a lyrical mistake was made i give it 7.5/10

saturday- final night was amazing!!!!!! I didnt mess up once i wasn;t nervous at all and a few people i dont even know said i did amazing
and erika said that it was amazing which was great because shes always been honest to me, if i do bad she tells me, and she said it was great :D i say 10/10 i was astonished that i did so well

the video of me performing man in the mirror by michael jackson will be on youtube and posted here within the next month
