With the previous attempt at skial singalong burning in the depths of unmod, I felt that it was my duty to give it another shot. I will cover some questions you may or may not have.

What is, a skial singalong?
Well, it's nothing new and original, it's basically a compilation of people singing in one video over the music track to create a cacophony of disgust or excellence depending on how good the singers are.
A few examples of singalongs:
If you don't know what /v/ and /b/ is, don't ask.
Okay, so what are we doing for our singalong?
First one has been done! Check the bottom of the post.

Great! How do I add my entry?
Glad you asked. You can use this website: http://vocaroo.com/
You will be taken to this

Now, you want to prepare your microphone and video (and possibly lyrics) for show while you sing your heart out.

Remember, it's vital that you have NO background noise on your microphone so there isn't any conflicting sound when the clips are compiled together.

When you are ready, click record, and you may see this:

Just click "Allow", and it will start recording. Now, sing, you glorious bastard.
When you are done you will see this:

Click it and it will open up a new window:

Now, what you want to do is copy and paste the highlighted link and send it to me. How can you do that? Simple, really. Just click my profile picture and select "Start conversation" There you can paste in the link for me to download the sound file. You can also download it yourself if you are particularly pleased, there are download links below.

Now, I'm not saying you HAVE to use vocaroo, but it's probably the easiest format to follow when it comes to quick recording and sharing.
Alright, thanks. I'll go sing like a madman now.
Wait! There are a few things you need to keep in mind when creating your entry.
  • Don't mumble! It doesn't fit well with other people who may be using their full voice. At least sing clearly and normally.
  • Rehearse! Don't be the one who keeps stumbling over their words throughout the video, that shit is embarrassing. Look at the lyrics while you sing, and get into it. If you think you're not up to it, don't do it. Simple as that.
  • You may have noticed in the example singalongs that there were people speaking inbetween pauses or not really singing at all. This is okay, but as long as it is in good humour and not "haha you're all dweebs"
Alright, THANKS. Can I go sing like a madman now?
WAIT! One last thing. Entries are going to be taken until sunday-ish, that's when I'll compile all of the entries into one video and upload it.

OK, THANKS. CAN I GO SING LIKE A MADMAN NOW?
Yes.

You ain't demanding shit if you don't sing, pal.
 
KEEP AT IT, PAT! Don't let the quitters faze your determination. This entire thing depends on people actually DOING it, and not assuming that others will.
