I, too, sent in a subpar version because I did not want to annoy my roommates.

Listening through and these are fantastic! My background track seems to have shifted exactly 2 beats off and I have no clue how that happened :S It actually still worked out rather well though. And I'm so glad you liked the "God I wish I was special" bit. I was really worried that wouldn't land!
Thanks for the amazing feedback! I appreciate it, and look forward to sending stuff in for you to enjoy!
I store such a high portion of my stress in my jaws by clenching them literally all day unless I'm consciously not, like to the point that I have to literally pry my jaw open sometimes, and literally crack it into movement in the mornings. What I'm saying is that I'll work on opening my mouth more, but that might be an uphill battle!
Haha thanks Bella!In post 61, Bellaphant wrote:Ari is just on brand it hurts.
I do try to be genuinely me whenever possible.
Going through these, and they are all amazing, but Holy Shit Flubber! You are def acing the Rock round, and probably anything else that comes along!
Fantastic!
Also, Bella, I love that snog and you destroyed it! Well done my friend!
I couldn't get yours to play, NoPowerOverMe, which is a shame. I hope I can hear your next one!
Haschel, I unironically love Barbershop Quartets and wanted to be in one so badly as a young boy! I had weird dreams. It's fine.
What I'm saying is that was awesome!
And Mina, holy shit!
You're coming to Karaoke with me next time I go! For real!!

Anyway, I'm going to shift this back to the competition if that's alright.
I've recorded and am uploading my next submission now. It's pretty okay imo. A couple parts could definitely be better and I really lack the Rock edge in my vocals, but so be it. I was far more apprehensive recording this time, oddly enough and I really can't bring myself to rerecord right now so even with an especially rough ending it's probably the finished product.
That said, Malkon, it's still early in this season, but I really appreciate you hosting and being so positive!
I've wanted to make videos where I sing for Youtube for a long time now. Like years. And I think this is going to give me the confidence to get over my worries about it! So thank you in advance, because this is a lot of fun and it's pushing me past a barrier I've been aware of for a long time now!Half meme, Half real, All Aristophanes ;)- JingleAri has appeared way too competent for me to even pretend to know what they're thinking

Uploading my song now. Honestly, I'm not happy with it but after 30 takes I can only do what I can do with it.
I chose a faster version because I don't have the core control for the longer notes despite the amount of emotion that can be inserted if that were chosen.
It's a tough song and I knew that from the start. Could I have chosen something else that is easier and better ranged for my voice? Yes. But this is a competition and doing the same old gets you out eventually. If this does me in, at least I gave it a good try and stepped out of my comfort zone!
Dreading a head-to-head with Bella or Mina or Lilith who would have been much more suited for it and would absolutely destroy a piece like this!
Anyway, this was going to be a bunch of excuses for why it isn't perfect but I've decided instead to own it. So that's that hahahaHalf meme, Half real, All Aristophanes ;)- JingleAri has appeared way too competent for me to even pretend to know what they're thinking

I mean, I prefer redux/acoustic versions and assumed they would be fine too, as it's merely a style choice for the piece. (mentioning that because I'm doing it in this very round but also because it is relevant).In post 326, Malkon05 wrote:

Hey Malkon,
I usually have to sing early in the morning, like within an hour of getting up, not just because I don't want to bug my roommates for which this timing is optimal, but also because they watch tv SO LOUDLY that, from another room with the doors in between closed, it actually overwhelms my own voice in live chats and therefore does not work for this sort of thing.
Do you have any tips for how I can warm up or essentially stretch my vocal cords in the morning? I know it's not a optimal time for vocal recordings but it's the only time I can make work most days.Half meme, Half real, All Aristophanes ;)- JingleAri has appeared way too competent for me to even pretend to know what they're thinking

I haven't shouted in at least 15 years though and the last time I did I immediately started crying afterwards because I'd lost my temper and that's only happened like 3 times in my life. Coincidentally also the only times I've screamed. Ever.

Ari checking in to say that I am absolutely not surprised by this. I can't believe I made it this far when compared with the other voices and personalities int his competition! You are all fantastic and I mean that! I expected to be out long ago. I absolutely loved being able to do this though! The opportunity was fantastic and I've enjoyed every bit of it!
Congrats to the dual-winners! You both slayed!
But then again, so did everyone this round! I was so impressed!
Also, damn. I could have killed Country! I used to be really into it and know far too many pieces for anyone's own good
Thanks for all the pointers Malkon and Lil, and thanks to everyone who has been putting themselves out there in this! It's amazing toseehear! <3
Also I find it almost comical that this thing started off with "You really know how to pick the right songs for your voice" and what eventually did me in was 2 weeks of "that wasNOTthe right song choice" XDHalf meme, Half real, All Aristophanes ;)- JingleAri has appeared way too competent for me to even pretend to know what they're thinking

Red Solo Cup is awful. Toby Keith sings "You, sir, do not have a pair of testicles if you prefer drinking from glass."

I held off from linking this so it wouldn't effect people's submissions but I figured I'd sing along!
Definitely would have changed songs if this were an official submission because it is very cringe at parts, but ya know *shrugs*
Enjoy a bit of higher register Ari!

So much Little Mermaid! Love it! I am very excited to listen to these entries!
I would have also done that movie. For the record I'd have done more takes because there are some places where I screwed the lyrics but as a non-contestant I was happy with it.
