Edit: this is it. Last 2 days! Get it to me by the end of the 10th!
Above is the link for the various tracks mentioned in this post, and lyrics. You will need them in order to participate. If you have questions, ask them in the comments here so others with the same question can see my answer.

I wanna do another big sing project and THIS song features some GREAT harmonies. The way Talk uses vocals for emphasis in the chorus of this song makes me wonder why it's so rare. Blast out 3 or more part harmony and I'm in heaven. SO let us make a little heaven together shall we?
Click the link above. You will find 3 harmony tracks and one melody track. Choose one or more or all. See which ones are in your range, not too high, not too low. Listen through, practice a few times with the track until you don't have to think about it anymore.
THEN. Listen to the track through HEADPHONES, and record yourself singing along with it. If you have software to make this process easier, great! If not, you can always sing into your cell phone's voice recording app. If you do not use headphones, your microphone will pick up the backing track, rendering your take useless. Please use headphones and check your recording before sending it. The song is at 119bpm if a metronome helps you.
You will need the following:
-Headphones, and something to play the guide track from
-A recording device, e.g. a cellphone.
-The ability to export an audio file (48Khz, 24bit if you know what that means) and email it to me at PepperCoyote@gmail.com I recommend Drop Box for sending multiple, or larger files.
-Deadline is May 10th, 2023

If you have a higher voice, it might make sense to sing the lowest part up an octave. Heck ANY of these parts are acceptable up an octave (or down an octave). More voices equals fuller sound.
You do not need to be "A good singer" to participate. Let this be an opportunity to try new things, or get back into singing. It's supposed to be FUN!
