Title: Meeting to Record Song in Toronto
Vee - July 28, 2006 04:36 AM (GMT)
I thought it might be best to start a new thread because it was getting off topic in the other thread. I wasn't sure where to post it cuz I wasn't able to start a new topic in the other sections, so I just started one here. hope it's okay. lol
Anyways, so are we really getting together and recording this song? If so, which song(s) should we pick? we have plenty of time to make changes since we're not rushing it for the Malaysia event.
and who has good recording equipment?
UPDATED
so here is a list of everyone who is interested and when they are available:
Vee - Aug. 18-28th, weekends after
Kozzi - Aug. 11-28th, weekends after
Simplicity - after Aug. 23
Ellen - after Sept. 5
super_vivi - until Sept. 5, weekends after
Joanna - before Aug. 14, after Aug. 28
c-lai - ??

getting together sounds great to me! i bet it'd be a LOT of fun!!! hehehe. it was a shame that we ALL could have met much earlier at the ray meeting. :P
kozzi - July 28, 2006 12:37 PM (GMT)
Or, we can be cheap and just go to a karaoke place and record there hahaha.
I'm free after August 11th and before August 28th. After Aug 28th, I can do weekends :)
Vee - July 28, 2006 02:10 PM (GMT)
haha yaah we can do that...since they'll have all the songs anyways
So I guess for now it's after Sept. 5. I think that we should all practice a few times before actually recording it. haha it'll be a lot of fun, just a bunch of crazy girls singing off-key (I know I will!)
I have a mic and md player that can record. do U think that is good enough? and then we can transfer it onto the computer.
super_vivi - July 28, 2006 03:05 PM (GMT)
hahaha!! That sounds like fun!! ^^ instead of singing while wandering the streets! :P
I am free anytime! until school starts that is! :P

let's make a list of songs we wanna do first.
which karaoke places would have Bosco's songs? or if ppl don't mind, maybe we can go to someone's house to record.
I guess we can come up with a song(s), and then we can practice on our own, and get togther the weekend of Sept. 5 to put it together. how does that sound?
GeLiGuoLu - July 28, 2006 06:01 PM (GMT)

simplicity - July 28, 2006 07:05 PM (GMT)
hmmm. im sure christine (c-lai) would be interested tooo. she seems very busy lately though. hope she can make it after sept 5 as well.
soo many toronto girls! hehe!! :yea:
Ellen - July 28, 2006 07:39 PM (GMT)
First of all, it seems like most ppl don't mind doing it after Sept 5, as long as it's on weekends - so I just want to say a BIG THANK YOU! :hug: B/c now I can participate!
As for Ideas: I was thinking, Bosco has a couple of songs out...so how about we try and do all of them? There's quite a number of us anyway..and some ppl who want do can do more than one (if there's more space)
Songs of the top of my mind:
1) ARS themesong (yes...first one to come to to my mind b/c I KEEP listening to it!)
2) Put Your Hands Up
3) WOIL themesong
4) Na Zha song
5) Greek Myth Song
#4 & #5 are a bit harder to sing..but we could try and see what happens...
I remember him singing Jacky Cheung, Andy Lau and Jordan Chan's song at some functions too, so we can even add those in if we want.
And if more than one person wants to sing a song/part, then they can either decide amongst themselves...or do a draw??
Let me know what everyone thinks!
super_vivi - July 28, 2006 08:26 PM (GMT)
Ellen! That's a really great idea! I'm up for it! ^^ But I have to know what song I am singing waaaaaaaaaay before hand so I can learn the words! (by using english pronounciations! hahaha...) cause my chinese is really bad! and I usually mix words up! :P Unless we sing in groups!! :D

I strongly suggest we sing in groups...emphasis on strongly haha
I like the ARS theme song, Put your hands up, and WOIL theme song...I think the WOIL song is very kewt...I haven't heard the other ones
Ellen: do U have any of these songs that can be downloaded? I don't have any of them cuz I've just formatted my computer
kozzi - July 28, 2006 09:11 PM (GMT)
Check the audio section here:
http://media.bosco-wong.com^^
Ellen - July 28, 2006 10:05 PM (GMT)
super vivi: don't worry, me too! I can barely read Chinese so when I listen to songs, I have to listen and think about English translations! Don't worry! And since we're not rushing for this coming function, we DO have some time.
Yeah, for the ppl who are comfortable with singing in groups mroe, they should sing in groups. If some ppl are ok with signing solo, then they can sing solo - unless SO many people want to sing solo. In that case, I propose that we divide up the song into verses...the person #1 can sing Verse #1, person #2 sing Verse #2, then they can sing chorus together! How's that sound?
As for which songs I like...ARS, Put your Hands Up and WOIL are all good with me..but I have a feeling that's what everyone is going to like. We can see what the others think and then decide on a fair way to do it!

Thanks Kozzi!
I'm good with some Chinese...not too much
Ellen/super_vivi: are U guys CBC's?! I am. :P
I like Ur idea about splitting it up into verses if ppl prefer singing solo. and we can also make our own English pronounciations for the songs and post it here for others
I made a poll. are there any other songs U guys want to add in before ppl start voting? what about that Olympic song he sang with Sammul, Ron, Kenneth, etc? I don't know what it's called tho... :sweat2:
Ellen - July 28, 2006 11:56 PM (GMT)
mmm, I don't know what it's called either. And I can't seem to see it on the multimedia site.
Um...the only songs I caan think of are the ones that I've listed. I think...the other songs he sung are:
Andy Lau's "Bun Siu Hai"
Jacky Cheung's "Ngoi See Wing Hung:
Jordan Chan..can't remember the title.
So if we all all of these, that's total of 8 songs...should be enough....
super_vivi - July 29, 2006 12:45 AM (GMT)
hahaha...yeah, I like Put your hands up and the ARS themesong too! :P and it is easier to sing then the other ones!! ^^ I don't know........so hard to choose!! -__-"
Vee - July 29, 2006 01:10 AM (GMT)
hmm the only problem is I dunno how to edit/delete the poll so I can add in the new selections
here are 2 vids from youtube of the 6 guys singing:

kozzi - July 29, 2006 12:13 PM (GMT)
Since I suck at singing, I'd probably prefer to do groups. Except maybe the rap parts in the WOIL theme. Those are probably done easier as a single person.
My choice? Put Your Hands Up, WOIL theme, ARS theme :)
GeLiGuoLu: YES! You should come join us! We can make it a weekend! And we'll show you around Toronto or something :P
super_vivi - July 29, 2006 03:03 PM (GMT)
yay!! In groups!! haha....my horrible voice can be drowned out! :P
Ellen - July 29, 2006 03:42 PM (GMT)
umm...I'm ok with singing myself or with groups....so it's ok with me. I'm not a very shy person (except I imagine I might be shy if I met Bosco) ..haha...lol. As long as if I sing by myself, I HAVE to have some time to practice!

hehe I guess it's settled then? :shy:
1. Put your hands up
2. WOIL
3. ARS
what sections do U guys wanna sing?
let's all sing in each song, and just have separate lines. (some in groups)
who wants the rap portion of WOIL?
:P can't wait to actually do this. it'll be so fun!

yah GeLiGuoLu! U should come join us! U live in NY right? that's so close!! maybe come for a long weekend or sth! are there any holidays in Sept/Oct/Nov besides Labour day? Thanksgiving? hmm
super_vivi - July 29, 2006 06:18 PM (GMT)
hehehe...I can't wait either!! But I definetly don't want to do the rap part of WOIL!! I can't even sing properly!! :P
kozzi - July 29, 2006 06:32 PM (GMT)
lol I wouldn't mind doing the rap parts! those are my favourite parts, especially Bosco's rap.
simplicity - July 29, 2006 10:44 PM (GMT)
i think it's better to each sing a verse, then sing the chorus as a group. but, if people are shy, it's ok. :)
if everyone sings in a group, i'll sing in a group. if everyone sings solo, i'll sing solo too. lol. i dont mind singing solo if it's in a karaoke setting. i feel better when the music covers half my voice. :P
rap? haha. i can't rap bosco's songs since i have never tried before. i can rap edison songs lol!
Ellen - July 30, 2006 03:12 AM (GMT)
mmm...I'm getting so excited! I don't really mind doing any part..as long as it's not too low key. As for the rap parts, I don't really mind either...but if someone really wants to do it more..then they can do it!
How many ppl are singing exactly?
And when are we getting together?
Vee - July 30, 2006 01:54 PM (GMT)
hmmm I might not mind the rap parts either...since it's not reallie singing haha
for put your hands up, we should assign who sings in place of whom, and then we all sing the English parts
WOIL, maybe we can have 2 ppl each for Bosco, Myolie, Liza...since there should be 6 of us
hmm would the first weekend in Sept. be too soon? cuz we all have school and work to care for first. I think we should just all prepare our parts first, and then decide when to meet up after we're good and prepared.
super_vivi - July 30, 2006 04:05 PM (GMT)
hahaha..yeah, that's a good idea!! cause I need plenty of time to practice my part! :P

ok...so...
1) Put Your Hands Up - so 1 person assigned to each guy, and then all 6 of us sing the English parts?
2) WOIL - so...2 for each Bosco, Myolie, Liza...then one person does the singing, one the rap?? BTW: does anyone have an mp3 version of this?
3) What about ARS?
I think we should meet a bit later then the 1st week of September b/c a lot of ppl will be just starting job/school - do they need that weekend to settle in??

yaah oops, I wasn't too clear
1. Put your hands up: 1 person assigned to each guy, so 4 girls. (unless anyone wants to do their part in group of 2), and all 6 sing the chorus (English parts)
2. WOIL: 2 each for Liza, Bosco, Myolie. I guess U can split it up so
a) one sings and one person does the rap
b ) both do the singing part, and then one of U do the rap (if one of U is
shy and doesn't want to sing alone)
3. ARS: I guess we can split up in groups of 3 and then assign verses for each
group. I thot of groups of 2 but some ppl might feel shy and rather sing in
a larger group. in a group of 2, one person might singer louder than the
other so it'll sound like only one person is singing.
yah, some of us might go to that show on Sept. 3 and not be able to meet up. btw, who's planning on going? I think I am.
super_vivi - July 31, 2006 03:00 PM (GMT)
oh, I want to go!! ^^ Do any of you know which stars are going yet?
umm....you are talking about the one at Wonderland right? :P
Joanna - July 31, 2006 05:02 PM (GMT)
lol.. i wont mind doing the rap part either.. I like what you gals planned on.. =).. let's do it! lol.. tehehhe

do U guys have any other suggestions as to how to do this?
simplicity - July 31, 2006 06:18 PM (GMT)
so are we doing it at karaoke? i know a great karaoke place but it's kinda very far (richmond hill). lol. you pay $7.99, 3 hrs, ALL YOU CAN EAT foods (or 4 hours with 2 drinks). very new songs :P
super_vivi - July 31, 2006 07:03 PM (GMT)
simplicity: eee...yeah, that is really far! :P but if they have very new songs!....hehehe...
Vee: i like how you planned it out!! I don't think there are any other simpler way to plan it. Unless we all sing the whole song together in a group! So, yeah, I like your way better! heheh...
