I want to know how to video me singing whilst recording. I see peoples videos on youtube, and i wonder how they do it.. do they record it then video themselves miming to it?

I'm pretty sure they just record using the microphone and the video at the same time, and then later edit in the audio from the microphone into the video using some software like Vegas or Final Cut. Or the cheap poor person version of those programs, which I'm not sure what those would be... I've never done any vocal things like that, but a few of my friends have, and that's how they did it.
So basically, just cut the audio from your camera and replace it with the audio you recorded into your DAW using a video editing program.

It depends on whether they are singing to a backup track (like karaoke) or a fully done recording. I lipsynch mine, and don't worry too much about matching up to the music exactly.

^What he said.
If it's a music video, I'm fairly certain they typically just lip sync the whole time. If you're doing something like a vocal cover, Most people I know just swap out the camera audio with the fancy vocal mic audio. Then nudge it around until it's all synced up.

I would run everything through a mixer and into the mic inputs of the camera. This will allow you to get the live sound you're looking for.
