CB Idol, Let's get the ball rolling! ;)

Finally, we're ready to start the new round of CB Idol! For those who don't remember or weren't around last time, we had a lot of great participants and hopefully this time will be even better. Those who have expressed interest in the topic in feedback will be sent PMs to let them know this has been posted, and to anyone else who might be interested, please go ahead and send in your submissions! The more the merrier. _smile.gif

Submissions

1. Maggie (cup noodles) 2. Jane (My Cinderella.) 3. Reili (ai + you) 4. br34ker4lyfe 5. Anastasia (a beautiful nothing) 6. Danielle (danifbble) 7. Linda (dreamerOi)8. Kim (Days Nearly Over)
  • Sway by Michael Buble
9. Jelyn (juh-leen ) 10. Aimee (stolen)
    11. (gemulon)
      11. Alysa (alysaphobia)
        -------------------------------------------------------------

        Rules

        How it Works:[list]
      • This being the preliminary round, members who are interested send in a sample recording.
      • Before the submission deadline has passed, the judges will determine the number of participants for the first official round. Out of the submissions, we will choose the best in order to fill those spots.
      • Each round, based on community feedback and judges' opinions, a participant will be eliminated from the competition until only one is left, our CB Idol. _smile.gif
      Submission Guidelines:
      • Each submission should be at least 30 seconds long.
      • Use only your own voice - no background vocals or harmony.
      • Background music is allowed and recommended. If you don't know where to get accompaniment tracks for your songs, I suggest searching for a midi file - these can be easily found and are usually free.
      • Submission must be your own and must be something that was not previously posted elsewhere.
      While we're still just starting CBI2, any suggestions (themes, judging, or otherwise) can be sent to Libertie, Arjuna Capulong, or tic tac. Please send in your submissions by Saturday, May 5th. Good luck!

      (By the way, to those who have asked about why my entries from CBI1 have disappeared, they've been rehosted. You can now find them here.)

      Alright, here's my critique.

      br34ker4lyfe - You have a beautiful rich tone to your voice! Be careful not to sing through your nose, especially on words like who. Think of blowing out a candle, that's what your mouth should look like on words like who and you. With some proper vocal training you could really get somewhere! Keep it up!

      I get that alot. Thanks for the tip, I'll keep that in mind if I make next round.

      Anastatia:
      You have a great voice but the choice of the song was kinda eh.
      Try selecting a slow song. You vocals would shine more =P

      Danielle:
      It was very good just certain parts you were off tune.

      Jane:
      Very good also but you missed some of the high notes.
      And it sounded like you sang through your nose most of the song.
      Tone was good though.
      Part 2 Sounded much better than part 1.

      Jelyn:
      You sounded good =]
      I think you need a mic though =P
      (Talk to you at the party tomarrow =P)

      The judges will have critiques posted for each contestant, so everyone will get at least three opinions. =]

      When you sing, extend some of the words.
      It seemed like to sped up the tempo of the actual song.
      (EDIT:Yeah, you sped the tempo of the song in the begining, I compared it to the actual song )
      Also you sang at the same note most of the time.
      Kind sang some notes high when they shouldnt and some low when they shouldn't.
      You have the potential, just need to work on it^^

      Jane- Ah don't push the pop voice. It sounds like you're singing through your nose and with small mouth. Drop your chin and jaw down for vowels. Keep your mouth open and don't push the sounds. It will come naturally with practice.

      Thanks for the critique, guys. I'll be sure to work on that "singing through the nose" thing. _smile.gif

      Thanks so much for the help. I will do my best to extend the words ^^. I wasn't sure what song to sing and I ended up picking this. If you think there is a different song that would be better suited for me it'd be great if you could tell me. Thanks so much again. _smile.gif

      Anastasia- Ah don't make excuses ever! If you say something like that at an audition they'll ask you to leave right there. Watch words like you, truth and who. It sounds like you're saying ew. Drop your jaw to make it an ooo. Nice range though! At the end I can't understand a word you're saying. For future reference, when singing a capella never wait for where the music would be.

      You do realize I'm already a signed artist?














      Lol just kidding. :)
      Capella?
