Thanks, I was wondering what was wrong.

The American accent is nice.... I don’t have an accent well compared to some people in Newcastle. People can tell I'm from Newcastle though but I have a very little Geordie tone to my voice.

Cool, I have family and friends and stuff in New Jersey/ New York, basically that part of the US. Oh and there’s people I know in Texas. And Detroit. Er, and Atlanta. Er…yeah lol, I’ve been to other places as well though such as Florida but have no relatives or people I know or anything there. They all seem to have different accents! At first I thought all Americans had just an ‘American’ accent, but there seems to be loads of variations.

Wow. Ash. You've been to the states?

Yeah, quite a few times. :shocked:
As if you didn't know that!
Then again, don't think I've told anyone, lol.

Haha. Please tell me all about it.
Are you online?

Sol laughed at my accent. He says I over-pronounce my "R". :conf:

Ooh, I want to hear it.
Actually, you may as well save it till the day for me...lol.
Try not to be TOO scary. :laugh:

So how is everyone coming along with their recordings then?

I've recorded the whole 2 minutes once...I did it a few days ago and sent it to Jay recently. So now if I want to change it etc. I've got a few days left to sort things, but at least Jay already has a version of it.

Thats good stuff!

Remember guys, unless you have a microphone problem, the last day to get them in is Saturday.

I sent mine to BB fernzy earlier, although I may rerecord it. How does this competition work anyway? Do you just post all of the songs and everyone votes or is there more involved?

I'm going to post the songs one by one, the judges will give their comments on each song, and votes will be taken in (to me).
Then the bottom 2 will go head to head, and the judges will pick who is eliminated.

What do we do for the head to head round?

Nothing. I'll probably re-post the songs, and the judges will make a decision on which had the best performance, the one who they choose will return to next weeks sing off.

I did one.... bit hushed me thought..... Did a two mins one should be alright..... Jay says it’s good... have to wait to see what other people think

I'll re-record mine later as i can use another program i got with my new webcam which means i can record the whole of it in 1 part rather than the 2 parts.

Also, don't you think it would be better to let each member have 2/3 votes? That way more votes will be cast so therefore there is less chance of a more than 2-way tie for the least? More chance of getting your bottom 2 easier maybe... ?

'__'

That's a good idea. Maybe each member should vote for their top 3, for example:

1. +3 points
2. +2 points
3. +1 point

or something along those lines to reduce the risk of a tie.

Ooh great minds and all that, eh Mark? :wink:

Yeah, good idea Anthony - sounds like a really good idea actually. It is all up to Chrizzle at the end of the day though, lol. Oh and very nice name Anthony. :tongue:

:hugesmile: Yeah, anthony's a great name, Anthony. :tongue:

Good luck everyone :hello:

Hopefully Chris you've met my demands.

Yes Mark.. *notes down*

All is in order.. Im now phoning Buckingham Palace to make sure all the security are here and not protecting the Queen:spin2:
