Hey All,

As you know, it's tradition (well, ok, we've done it once so it's now tradition) for us to do an overnight Video, and someone sings a nano parody song.

I had a song in mind, but due to sickness, I can't sing all the parts. :( And I don't have time to get it done. So if any of you have any ideas for a song I could sing, or a parody, that'd be great.

Mind you, I'll probably only picks songs I know, or can sing, but if anyone has any ideas, I'm all ears. :D

(Oh, and I can't sing "Shook me all night long... too high :D)

I suggested "Stayin' Awake" ("Stayin' Alive") but Errol says he can't do the falsetto while his throat is sore.

I think may have refused on principle, too.

le sigh.

I still want R Black's "Friday Friday Friday" ... as "nano nano nano" ... think it's a natural that would almsot write itself.

just saying.

Also - b/c of the earworm potential, it just screams for parody treatment.

I'm with Red on this one, with the additional request that it be recorded so I can see it!

Whichever song Errol chooses is going to turn up on the overnighter vid - like the Mulan parody last year. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCvJWJGdCII

You guys are suggesting songs too high for me to sing. *sigh*

Of course... *I* don't have to sing them. If anyone wants to submit a song, I'm all for it... :D

ok ...

Swing lo, sweet chariot

that's the sound of the men, working on the chain gang

mine eyes have seen the coming ...

shaker melody

and is Friday Friday Friday really that high?

:D

Heh!

And no, friday is not that high at all. I would just need to get Debs to do it... and the sad thing would be trying to do a video of that.

My problem is are standards. And no, I don't mean the song isn't worthy enough, it's just that there are MANY parodies of it, and I would want to make it equally as good as those parodies, you know? :) And I've seen so many parodies, with really good videos, that I'd be all... stressed I couldn't do one just as good because of time limitations.

*sigh* I'm a freak, I know. :D

The Police - Every breath you take?

Queen - The Show Must Go On?

Gary Jules - Mad World? (Not really that upbeat, I know)

Phantom of the Opera - Phantom of the Opera?

Bruno Mars - Billionaire? (get Ren to do the rap-part, he's awesome at it)

Foo Fighters - Learn to Fly?

And in general, I don't think you can go wrong with Disney-classics. Like "I can go the distance" from Hercules, or "A Whole New World" from Aladdin or whatever.

anything you can do I can do better (annie get your gun)

i am the very model of a modern major gen (pirates of whatnot)

bibbity bobbity boo - cinderella

not sure wha the song title is ... first line "they all laughed at christopher columbus when he said the world was round ..."

sit down your rocking the boat - Guys and Dolls

Just about any musical ... maybe some zippy jazz?

Do you have at least a category we could brain storm over?? :)

Oddly, I quite enjoy that you are dedicated to the quality of the end product. :D

I Wanna Be Like You from The Jungle Book?

Now I'm the king of lazy folk
Oh, the idle VIP
I reached the top and had to stop
And that's what's bothering me
