Me and Omar and pamie are going to turn this into a Battle Royale, y'all. Be afraid.

The Reigning Champ will take on all challengers with the grace and ass-kicking abilities with which she was born.

I wasn't going to enter again, but Omar and his smack-talking mouth (numbers 1 and 2 on the Chuy Hate List) have left me no choice!

It's on. Let's get ready to rumble.

I know I'm not part of "the group" here, but I found that site before reading about in the forum (I'm a karaoke junkie - we're talking 2 gigs of files on my hard drive from Napster) and was planning on entering.

Then I read about it on here and I must say I'm a little frightened by your intensity. Just kidding, I think it's great. Let the best one win!

You all don't even know. Allison's been talkin' smack over e-mail too, trying to intimidate me into not entering because she's afraid of a little competition. It won't work.

She's a cat. A fraidy one.

Our conclusion was that she's:

a. in need of back-up singers and reverb and some other Perry Farrell toys

b. something about a urinal cake that I don't remember

c. invoking the spirit of karaoke patron St. Dong.

But on this we agree: It's on.

Edited to increase the smackage talk level...

Oh, people.

I'm in. I just entered. Here's what's different from last year: now I know that you can listen to your entry before you send it. I didn't know that last year. I just hung up.

This means that this year I got to have the executive decision. This means, sadly, none of you will hear my rendition of "When You're Good To Mama," since I felt it just wasn't strong enough to win with all of the competition this year.

My entry? Gold, baby.

Nah, I don't know. As I learned last year, the biggest smack talkers get smacked the hardest.

But I think I accidentally entered twice.

(edited to say: Becky Barker's making me nervous)

Well, I entered! Actually, sometime last week, I entered. That's me doing the Tracy Chapman impersonation. And no, I ain't gonna talk any smack, cause I think I'm outta my league.

Pamie, Kathy Handley is giving us all a run for our money. I listened to her doing Believe, and I just wanted to crawl under a rock and die.

Okay so, I just went and downloaded Real Player so I could hear all you sillies belting out your show tunes (Omar, may I suggest for you perhaps "Luck Be A Lady" from Guys and Dolls?) and after trying very hard to avoid getting spammed repeatedly by real.com and it's products after the download, now it says it can't connect to the misinformer server. All that work for NOTHING!

What, pray tell, do you all use to open these .ram files?

wow, maaaynn...I'd do it, but the only song I can sing is Eyes On Me [the FF8 theme]. I might just sign up though...if I can find an instrumental of this. I got the soundtrack, but the one instrumental just sounds like it but I can't sing on top of it so scouring napster.

if not, I'll be sure to vote for one of ya. last year I was too late to vote.

I honestly thought she just played the song into the phone. Then I listened closer. Good god, that girl's got a voice. I'd be scared too. Actually, I am.

I'm home alone right now, so I'm thinking of doing my entry now. So nervous. Tee hee.

okay, y'all. I found a karaoke thing to this song. eek!!

I can suuure belt out the chorus though. do they only allow 2 minutes for each entry? cause this song is 5 minutes and the chorus doesn't even start till 2 minutes...heh heh. maybe I'd be saving some eardrums though if it just didn't get to that part...

I'm not saying I'll sign up yet. I've gotta rehearse and decide if I'd regret it later..

Oh good lord. I just did it. My boyfriend walked in like TWO seconds after finishing it too. PHEW!!!

So tomorrow you can hear my rendition of "Son Of A Preacher Man." Eek, I'm a little nervous now. Don't know why, the hard part is over, right? Oh wait, there's the voting.

People, please. She's all right...

*biting nails... what am I going to sing?!*

And B_Beatnik... MAD props to you for the Preacher man choice. That's a great one. I'm sure it will be excellent.

Not that I'm nervous or anything, but uh... you know what I said up there about how I was going to kick everyone's ass and stuff... y'all know I was just trying to be tough, right? Because I won last year and all. Doesn't mean I'm the best in the world or anything...

Oh, wait. Yes it does. It's still ON, ya amateurs (especially you, Omar).

okay, I did it. is it bad if I sent it accidently when I messed up and called back again? ya see I pressed 1 instead of 2 and in the playing of it I said, "aww shit" erm...so I resent it and it was okay but my voice cracked at one part.

for practicing, my mouth was pretty dry by the time I actually did it. we'll see. at least I sounded semi-okay.

Pamie, have you heard mine?

Terrible, terrible work. I've been chastising myself for hours.

Like, I even listened to it, but it sounded good, then!

mine'll probably be up tomorrow, so watch out, yo!

I just sang with no music [just lyrics in hand] to mom and she laughed at me and said I'd fit right in with the rest...she's a meany!! she should've heard me before I got the drainage out of my throat. now I'm at that awkward cracking voice, change tempo phase after too much hype..bleh.

anyway, be sure to tell me what you think when it goes up..I sang Eyes on Me from the FF8 soundtrack. mom said I picked a hard song; I guess.

Ooh, people, I just went and sang "I Touch Myself." After hearing myself sing about 3 or 4 times, and trashing each one as worse than the last, I finally got a version that didn't make me cringe, mostly because you can't hear me as well. Woo!

But don't you worry. I'm still kickin' all y'all's asses. Yup. How can I lose with the Divinyls on my side?

Whee!

Ok, now someone broke out with the trash talk. Divinyls ain't got nothing on Dusty Springfield. Nothing.

insert Judge Mills Lane saying "Let's get it on" here.

The proof is in the pudding. Uhm, yeah, and other tired cliches.

Hey, I'm just no good at trash talk, I can't help it.

(Shhhhh. I'm no good at trash talk either, but I figured tonight may very well be my one and only opportunity to do some karaoke trash talking, since my entry will actually be available for your listening pleasure as of tomorrow morning. For now, though...)

Oh, yeah? Oh, yeah?? Well, Dusty Springfield...isn't woman enough to touch herself!

YOUR ASSES ARE GRASSES!

Listen up. You done been told, now.

The lastest round has been posted.

Omar and Allison are suspiciously absent, which I find unfair. They can listen to me and then make their choices of songs. Humph. I thought we were all entering today.

Drama Princess ain't bad, yo. Not bad at all. And the choice of song? Pure gold. Geesh. Whoever can sing that and get away with it has MOXY.

And Pamie, wow. I'm skeered. The quality of yours came out a helluva lot better then some of the others. That ain't right.

Ok, I think I used the word "ain't" one too many times, I'm going to work now.
