Sorry, computer deleted my original post when I tried to edit it!
Defying Gravity track: http://www.box.net/shared/o6ufmyq8tq
Chords (I played without the capo) and lyrics:
VERSE

G D
Something has changed within me
G C
Something is not the same
G D Em
I'm through with playing by the rules
C
Of someone else's game
F G
Too late for second-guessing
F G
Too late to go back to sleep
F G
It's time to trust my instincts
C D
Close my eyes and leap

---CHORUS

Em
It's time to try
C G D
Defying gravity
Em
I think I'll try
C G D
Defying gravity
Em
Kiss me goodbye
C G D
I'm defying gravity
G
And you won't bring me down

VERSE 2

G D
I'm through accepting limits
Em C
'Cause someone says they're so
G D
Some things I cannot change
Em F
But 'till I try, I'll never know
F G
Too long I've been afraid of
F G
Losing love I guess I've lost
C Em
Well, if that's love
Am D
It comes at much too high a cost

CHORUS
Em
I'd sooner buy
C G D
Defying gravity
Em
Kiss me goodbye
C G D
I'm defying gravity
Em
I think I'll try
C G D
Defying gravity
F
And you won't bring me down

CHORUS 2nd time
Em
I'd sooner buy
C G D
Defying gravity
Em
Kiss me goodbye
C G D
I'm defying gravity
Em
I think I'll try
C G D
Defying gravity
G
And you won't bring me down
F G
Bring me down, Oh oh oooooooh oh

I'm thinking of doing some Glee songs when I start putting videos on youtube again. I'm in Auckland though ^^;

TinTango, wow I totally didn't expect you could sing! Haha not bad at all =]

**Guest** Guest

I would love to do something like this, but i've been busy practicing to wow the pants of my site members with the virtual asian idol contest XD

Actually I didn't realise they had some proper singers on CNZ! Now I feel a bit embarrassed about my effort Papa don't preach posted- Glee Singalongs - Page 2 37781

Hey Reiko, send me a link when you do post something up!

@ALL: I'm gonna post the Papa Don't Preach Song up next, simply because I looooove the guitar part. I'll do one with and one without me singing, cos it would be awesome if someone could record themselves singing to the track as I probably won't do it justice. *hint*hint*

>//< Haha I'm not really a 'proper' singer XP I just love to sing, really. I'll try and record one this week to see what you guys think, not sure which song yet ^^; Have to wait until morning to practice - damn apartment buildings!

Alrighty then, moving along, here's Glee song number 2: Papa Don't Preach.
It's short but sweet... I especially love the guitar for this, not so keen about the high notes, though I tried my best to hit them.

Let's hear what you thinK Papa don't preach posted- Glee Singalongs - Page 2 Icon_cool

Link to the chords: Note that I put the capo on first fret and
the first chord I played was Eminor relative to capo.
So I think it's in the proper Fminor key, with that modification.
http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/tabs/g/glee_cast/papa_dont_preach_crd.htm

And the words, so you can Singalong (will be played at Cosplay meetups
when i bring my guitar so be sure to practise):

Verse 1
Papa I know you're going to be upset
Cause I was always your little girl
But you should know by now, I'm not a baby
You always taught me right from wrong
I need your help daddy please be strong
I may be young at heart but I know what I'm saying

Bridge:
The one you warned me all about
The one you said I could do without
We're in an awful mess and
I don't mean maybe
Please

Chorus:
Papa don't preach
I'm in trouble deep
Papa don't preach
I've been losing sleep
But I've made up my mind
And I'm keeping my baby
oooooooh
I'm going to keep my baby
Aaaaaah

-Fin-

Id join in for sure, but... really am not comfortable singing and posting because if i randomly started singing at my comp at my house i would probs be looked at like i was crazy....

By TinTango. 07/01/10, 01:40 pm

Haha! That would get some funny stares... no the singalongs are for when we get together for Geddons, or Christmas in the Park etc. I'm not brining my guitar to the Auckland Cosplay Picnic though, because I want to be eating, not singing!

Yeah, so just have a listen and practise singing along every now and then.

**Guest** Guest

Dude! i have no skills in Dancing or Singing, but let me sort a Dance for "Proud Mary" !!! PLEASE??

I know there is one for it already from Glee, but unless we can all get Wheelchairs...lol

SS

By TinTango. 07/01/10, 02:44 pm

Wheelchair cosplay? Ummmm if we all came as Rufus Shinra, or Professor Xavier it might work. Papa don't preach posted- Glee Singalongs - Page 2 Icon_razz

But yeah, you can go ahead and organise a dance... are you thinking Tina Turner-esque? I'd be keen... unless ofcourse Im playing the guitar.

In any case, I'll post Proud Mary up next, just for you. Though it may take a while as I haven't found the music or practised it yet.

**Guest** Guest

Yay! I have been watching her Dance on YT...well, her back up dances anyway...got some ideas Very Happy

Aww

Just for me? lol Very Happy

You should be Dr X! omg that would be awesome Very Happy

So cool~ I'm trying to figure out No Air and Don't Stop Believing on piano right now. Kind of failing though ^^'

I can't wait to hear the rest of your covers~ C:

By TinTango. 07/01/10, 03:05 pm

Thanx! To tell you the truth, I'm struggling with those 2 songs as well.
Well, No Air sounds good on guitar, but don't stop believeing takes a bit of effort not to sound too repetitive (hard to do when you only know 3 strums!). But hey, I reckon if we keep practisin at it, we'll get better. Youtube has some pretty good tutorials for most songs, if you need help.

Ofcourse, now you've posted, you know I'm gonna count you as one of the chorus singers when we do get together and sing these two songs, right!

**Guest** Guest

*has decided he sounds horrible through a mic and so refuses to do anything about anything*

**Guest** Guest

I'm looking really forward to this now, I've also just found a website with piano sheet music with No Air and Don't Stop Believing. I just need to practise singing now >.>

Cool~! I'm looking forward to the chorus meetup C:

**Guest** Guest

Gross Image ahead:

Jackie Sweating from Dancing to Tina Turner and the fact her house is closed so she is not seen dancing......LOL

I haven't worked this hard it ages ;D I think I have most, if not all of it now Very Happy

But to the Glee Version.

By TinTango. 07/01/10, 03:19 pm

@Nee: Oh yeah, I can't wait either! First one will be at ChChGeddon. Then Wellygeddon, then... I'm not so sure. But you can be sure I'll also do do this at Auckgeddon. Also, if you learn the piano parts, we could probably jam together sometime! Papa don't preach posted- Glee Singalongs - Page 2 94682

Papa don't preach posted- Glee Singalongs - Page 2 94682

@Shadeow: Are you sure about that? Come find me at the next geddon, and we'll do a Rockband group, you and me singing together/sharing the mic, then we'll see if you got any voice or not!

@SS: Professor X..... I hadn't thought of that! Will consider it in future X-men groups.
Addit: Tina Turner's Proud Mary is Win! You should do her dress, with all the bits that move when she shimmies... Papa don't preach posted- Glee Singalongs - Page 2 586737

Did Someone say I would have this ready by morning...? Oh yeah, that was me Very Happy

Finally Up Very Happy

Watch me dance like a Dork ;D LOL

Holy crap, I can't believe you learned all that in one night. I applaud you! And you cojones for posting that on YT. If I wasn't such a lazy thing I'd try and learn some of your routine... unfortunately, I am lazy D:

Also; just heard TT's covers. I really, really liked Defying Gravity. You adapted it well for your voice, dude. You don't sound like a beginner guitarist, heh.

**Guest** Guest

LOL I am ashamed of my dancing for the first two seconds, and then I just think it'd me well funny for others to see me trying to dance ;D

You should learn it, its really fun! That is why I could semi-get all it down in one night Very Happy

And TT's Singing is awesome ;D
