The original thread
The Sing-along collab!
Hey! Welcome to an awesome opportunity to do something fun and memorable!
Ceevro on Newgrounds explained it well so I'll use his words:
"So for those of you who have been living under a rock...Gord Downie, lead singer of The Tragically Hip, has just passed away. He was an icon in my home country of Canada, and a very sad loss to music.
BUT, his brother said on CBC Radio One that his eulogy will be spoken every time someone anywhere in the world picks up a guitar and sings one of his songs. I agree! And what better eulogy than for people all over the world to pick up a guitar, or some spoons, or bagpipes, or...I think we even had packets of oatmeal in one Singalong..."
To commemmorate this, we are doing a singalong of Ahead By A Century by The Tragically Hip where anyone with a microphone can sing the song, send us the recording and we'll add it to the song. Even if you don't know the song (I didn't when Ceevro asked me to produce this), take part anyway! It's a blast.
Our backing track
The lyrics
Be careful - we're doing this slightly lower than the original!
Here are some previous singalongs:
Bryan Adams - Summer of 69
Toto - Africa
So grab a mic and sing along with us!!! You can submit your recording here if you don't want to make an account on NG.
