I think the critics mean the "distorted" parts. The original song has these parts and its nice to try to emulate it, but they just don't sound as good. It sounded great if you recorded the entire thing in the way you did the first verse.

Cool song though. I really liked the DTs on top song too by those other guys.

I laughed between 1:51 - 2:10, I quite liked it. But I liked the Tik Tok StarCraft song better though.

7mk seems like a really good singer but his accent is too strong for this song. I would love to hear him sing in German though.

hey, you want to PM me with a link to the source files? I can see if I can fix it up (hopefully the quality is good enough) to sound all autotuned legit if you want (or no one else wants to). You can sound just as good as he does (obviously, he does the same thing... computers fix everything).
Sweet.

It shouldn't offend you. I'm just saying someone like Nick Pitera should sing it :D!
So don't feel offended :-)! I still see the great effort behind it




Edit: Yup, thats no fake, he's singing both, male and female part to perfection.

I love Fireflies and didn't think the singing for an amateur was bad at ALL. Way better than the Tik Tok remix.

It's saying it's unavailable. And is the source an MP3, not a Wave (and one file? I was assuming you had a back track and a vocal track that were separated).
Sweet.

well, before recording I actually thought "you're not gonna be able to make it sound the same so just do your own thing" (plus I don't really like autotune) and I figured that a Lo-Fi preamp (-> distortion) would be an interesting choice.
But I guess this difference makes it even weirder if you know the song (I didn't know this song at all until baller PMed me the video to it ^^) and maybe it's sub-optimal either way.
but yeah thanks for the input..and for the edit (or thanks jinro if you did it ^^)

Good god... Can someone with actual singing talent remake this? Sorry OP, but my ears nearly bled out :/

I have no idea what you are talking about, I like his singing.

Awesome song imo =]


I like his voice, there are just 2-3 parts that are blatantly out of tune. I don't think it should be redone by someone else who is better at singing - instead, the OP should redo it himself with a little more attention to tone and all that jazz.


Could you tell me which parts you're talking about? Thx


Bold = errors, big and small
Italics = parts with great execution, intonation, etc.

You would not believe the cries - should be same tone as "be-" in "believe"
Ten million Korean guys
Lit up the world in five countdown beeps - semitone low
When Jae Dong goes* 3-hatch lair**
And Bi Su goes 1-gate sair
You'd think me rude,
But lately I just don't care - semitone low

* you want to emphasize this word just enough so that we can clearly hear the 1-note drop
** lair and beeps should be elongated, or else you have this awkward pause length until the next line

[And] I'd like to make myself believe - didn't quite hit these notes, semitone low i think
That StarCraft One dies slowly.
It's hard to say that I'd rather play - semitone low
A game that's not as deep
Is StarCraft Two as easy as it seems?

Cause I'd fix a thousand bugs
Give Idra a thousand hugs
But Blizzard keeps giving noobs a chance
No more mm micro spreads,
One big control group instead, - semitone low
Did you read that angry* team liquid thread?

* you gave yourself a bit of pause time to make sure you hit the note for "angry" - great!

I'd like to make myself believe
That StarCraft One dies slowly.
It's hard to say that I'd rather play
A game that's not as deep
Is StarCraft Two as easy as it seems?
(Should I make the leap?)

I heard that mutas now can't stack?
(Please take me away from here.)* - very shaky on intonation here
Lings auto surround when they attack.
(Please take me away from here.) v
Why are roaches so fucking cheap?
(Please take me away from here.) - the "from" especially
Even noobs can macro in their sleep**! -

* high notes, so its okay.
** here is a case where it's good that you end the phrase quickly, since it's the end of the verse

Ten million Korean pros
From Yo Hwan to Young Ho - good execution
I got misty eyes as they said farewell. - your tone dropped too low, probably to hit "eyes"
But I'll know where several are
Like those with sense of star
Cause I saved some reps,
And I keep them in a RAR.

-- from here on your intonation is fine

I'd like to make myself believe
That StarCraft One dies slowly.
It's hard to say that I'd rather play
A game that's not as deep
Is StarCraft Two as easy as it seems?
(I should make the leap) - this just sounds a bit weird, not sure why.

I'd like to make myself believe
That StarCraft Two grows quickly.
I hope this game won't fade away
And lives for ten long years
Because by then we'll have StarCraft Three

- Most of the spots where you lose your intonation are places with large jumps in notes, so it's understandable. For example, each time you have to go up and hit "I'd" in the chorus, (kind of hard to explain) instead of one exact note you shift/slide up until you think you have the correct note. This can be used for good effect (sair / care in the first verse), but can also sound bad.
- I don't exactly like whatever sound effect you used for 2nd and last verses.
- Overall, pretty good execution. It's hard to catch intonation errors by oneself.
