GOF Sing-along: If We Hold On Together

[Mumbling]

Hi everyone! 

Remember the singing projects? The banners you'll see in some people's avatars? Here's a small reboot! In honor of making a fully GOF-voiced Land Before Time movie, I thought it would also be a good idea to put voice-overs instead of Diana Ross' song during the credits.

The premise is very simple: if you have a microphone of any kind and want to join - you can! You'll need a few more things to send me a recording:
- A program in which you can record your voice. This can be any program of your choice, so long as it can create mp3 or wav files. A good free option is Audacity.
- Earphones to listen to the song (so that we won't hear an echo of it in your recording).
- Quiet time at home to record!

Are you in? You can find the lyrics here. Attached to this post you'll find Action9000's excellent rendition of the song without any vocals. Please sing along to that song, since the original song has a slightly different timing from the rendition.

I'll be updating this post with the people who want to join! Feel free to ask if you have any questions. I want at least 5 voices - but the more the merrier!

Like I said before, I could try putting my Petrie singing voice into this, but I probably won't get an opportunity until either tomorrow or later. My little brother's high school graduation is today, and I intend to be there to see him do it.

[Mumbling]

That would be absolutely awesome, Diddy! If we hold on together is particularly tricky because it has many low and high notes, but I hope you can make it work! And of course, no rush, enjoy your brother's graduation

I will! I hope it'll be just as special as my own graduation eight years ago! My God, has it been that long?

In fact, I had a dream last night about the four (Littlefoot, Cera, Ducky and Petrie) singing the song during a colorful sunset. It took place just one day after the events of the movie, and they briefly discuss their new friendship and their troubled pasts before Petrie decides to try singing for the first time, and he breaks into the song we all know and love, before the others eventually join in and they become a foursome, with Ducky joining him next, before Littlefoot and Cera join in for the first chorus. It was one of the cutest, tearful dreams I have had in recent memory.

I see my name has already been thrown on the list from the chat. Well you already know that I just sent out a preliminary showcase for you to laugh at 
I'll see if I can find another opportunity to do a better recording.

[Mumbling]

Well received, thanks Flathead!

[DiddyKF1]

I''ll try to get my singing recorded if at some point my brother leaves the room for maybe 15 minutes or so.

BTW, his graduation last night was just wonderful! He'll be off to college at UB before the end of August, and he'll be dorming there, which means I get the room to myself, and therefore more recording opportunity time!

[DiddyKF1]

Welp, my brother went to a friend's graduation party, and that provided me with the perfect opportunity to get my recording done! And what I said about singing in my Petrie voice, I'm true to my word. I didn't have the heart to break out of character!

[Mumbling]

Thanks, Petrie Diddy! I don't know how you do it, hitting all those high notes in Petrie's voice. Sounding really good so far, guys!

[Nimrod210]

Hey. If some of you wonder. I was just Nimrod before. I sadly forgot my Password and my old Email is deleted so I had to create a new account.^^

I would gladly be participating in the Project tho.

[Belmont2500]

No way I'm going to let a chance to sing a childhood favourite pass me by.

I'm in! 

[Mumbling]

Yay, welcome both! I've added you to the list. Nimrod, I've sent you instructions regarding your old account

[Nimrod]

Yaaay. Back to my old me ^_^

[UnionRags123]

I'd love to join...but I can't sing well at all 

[Mumbling]

You'd be welcome to join! Singing well is not a requirement, trust me

Ooh in that case maybe I will join 
Also, we don't have to try to do an impression of one of the characters...do we? 

[DiddyKF1]

Also, we don't have to try to do an impression of one of the characters...do we? 

I wouldn't say we necessarily have to. I mean, I personally think having the characters singing it is cute, but we're leaving that optional for now. I did a Petrie impression that ended up quite good, but natural voices would be okay, too.

[Mumbling]

No need to do a character impression, no! Sing however you want to, as long as you keep to the rhythm of the song posted in the original post!

[Mumbling]

This project is coming along nicely - already received 4 recordings! Would love to see some more, so keep them coming

[Petrie]

My voice has been sent to the appropriate parties for listening.
