The count is rising! Cool! man, I better get this song happening. This could be the biggest internet collaboration in history! (which would be a good thing, I think!)

Ya I'll participate in some small faction, whatever's needed. I'm hoping the timing doesn't inerfere too much with the challenge, but squeezing off a chorus vocal or something shouldn't too taxing.

This is a priceless idea, the board's on a roll.

When ever I think of these "we are the world" tunes all I can picture is Neil singing "somehow our innocence is lo...ost"
 
What the hell? I've got the vocal range of a doorbell, but whatever key it's in I'm sure I can find a note or two to work with. Trying to coordinate a key that works for 50 people sounds a little nuts. I say, we just do it in a key that's good for all *instruments* (like Bb, maybe?) & let the singers deal with it.

But whichever way it goes, this sounds too out there for me not to be a part of it.:)

I wanna hear the song first before I commit. LOL :D :D

Hey Jude type song, okay.
We Are the Champions type song, okay.
I'd Like to Buy the World a Coke type song, no way. LOL

Hey, did you ever see that version of Perfect Day by Lou Reed, where they got loads of famous singers to take a line each of the song? Absolute magic. One of the main reasons was the song. It's a beautiful song, and ol' twisted Lou makes it even more beautiful - really inspiring.

Can you do twisted and beautiful? :D

I'm in.

Hey Dobro--its gonna be a challenge for sure. If it sounds like Buy The World A Coke, I'll commit hari kari! Twisted and beautiful? I'm not promising anything! The key to something like this is to find a style that lends itself to some diverse talents, you know? I have faith that it will be great, though. "If you write it...they will come". I dunno--I keep hearing voices! Between writing this, the HRC4 challenge and a couple of other unfinished things on my plate, this might not be ready for a bit. I will bump this thread or start a second when the time comes.
