Twitch Sings

[GasBandit]

I started a duet for Baby One More Time by Britney Spears. Complete it if you dare. Anyone.

 

[GasBandit]

I did one solo



And then completed the duets of a couple randos:

You go, little asian dude doing Garth Brooks!



And then there's the bayou bombshell..

 

[Dei]

My vocals are all over the fucking place. I am clearly not great at this.

 

[GasBandit]

I am clearly not great at this.

The trick is to compensate by going LOUDER! It always works!

 

[Dave]

The first rule of karaoke.

 

[Dei]

The trick is to compensate by going LOUDER! It always works!

You are not wrong, and TBH I always sound better when I go louder. The problem is that my brain freaks the fuck out and I'm fighting against myself.

I hope you don't mind me saying your singing voice is incredibly cute.

You know that part in a lot of Westerns, where a guy walks into a saloon, and says something to somebody, and everybody ELSE oh-so-casually walks out of the way and gets behind something thick enough to stop bullets?

Yes, that’s what happens when you call a woman a “girl” within earshot of @WasabiPoptart .

[GasBandit]

Terrik completed Stand By Me with me and didn't even SAY anything about it.



Also I find it hilarious that Twitch Sings apparently reset his stream title so that all his Overwatch streams since he started doing this are now called "Hakuna Matata in the style of The Lion King."

 

[GasBandit]

I completed a couple of @Dei's duets -


And then I did a couple duets with random people (that were distressingly better at singing than me)-


And then, since nobody completed it, I figured I'd finish my own duet for this one

 

[Tinwhistler]

Well, you guys *almost* sucked me in...but i was saved by fate

 

[Tinwhistler]

Ok..you guys get one.

I downloaded Karafun, which is free karaoke software. It has little 15-45 second snippets of tunes if you don't pay a subscription. I ain't paying to torture myself, but I'll give you guys a few seconds of Elvis Presley.

I spent a good half hour finding a song that was well within my key.

I tried to stick it on youtube, but it's stuck in process hell. I'll try to get it up tomorrow if it's finished.

 

[Dave]

Karafun is what I use for my professional Karaoke gigs.

 

[Tinwhistler]

 

[GasBandit]

Hey, that's not shabby. But like I tell everybody else, try to pick songs that makes you sing LOUD! Belting it out always sounds better than soft and low, in karaoke.

 

[Tinwhistler]

everyone had just gone to bed...I didn't want my wife to yell at me from up stairs about the noise

 

[GasBandit]

I did a few more duets with randos. Also, I wanted to do "We don't have to take our clothes off" but it turns out they only have the slow, soulful Ella Eyre version, and not the fun 80s Jermaine Stewart version :/

 

[GasBandit]

I think I'm the only one still doing this. Well, I had a go at Ella Eyre anyway, even though it's not my usual bailiwick.

 

[PatrThom]

I DID comsider it, but was also saved at the last minute by the end of the beta.

—Patrick

 

[Terrik]

I've been busy. Might try tonight again

 

[GasBandit]

Exhibit A, for why Gas Bandit generally doesn't attempt songs with high notes.

[GasBandit]

Twitch Sings is now out of beta and free to download and play.

SING WIT MAH

 

[Terrik]

I want more songs

 

[Tinwhistler]

I downloaded it. But I'm leaving to fly out to Arizona in about 8 hours. So it'll have to wait til I get back to look at it.

SING WIT MAH

If you are willing to sing in spanish, Vero will karaoke with you all night.

 

[jwhouk]

Gas and Vero - Despacito duet?

 

[Cog]

This song

 

[PatrThom]

I could probably do "Porque te vas." It'd take me back to the days of Saura in film class.

[GasBandit]

Alas, we are limited to whatever twich gives us and I didn't even see la Bamba there.

 

[PatrThom]

What? Not even "Bamboleo?"

--Patrick

 

[Cog]

What? Not even "Bamboleo?"

La vida no se puede vivir asi.

 

[GasBandit]

A random guy completed one of my duets! Shock and surprise!

 

[Dave]

It's almost like the guy had never heard the song. He was always a beat or two slow and his delivery was clipped like you could tell he was reading more than singing.
