    Zero to Hero
    Deadline: Before April 26th.



    Notes;

    AHAHAHA, good luck. Who suggested this? xDD Oh man. What a great night.

    Ahem. But seriously. There are a lot of 'ad libs'. Lots of gospel 'Aaaaah!'s and stuff. Feel free to do those, lol. Oh god. I'm sorry.

    Now the way this works is that I'll have this thread closed until the singers are revealed and reply to my invitation. No one claim lines except for the ones who receive the invitation. This song was chosen randomly, as will the four singers be. You'll not know who you're singing with until I get a reply from everyone.

    The deadline is shorter than a week and always will be unless the song is really long or in another language. There are only four people singing as opposed to 13+ so we really don't need more than a couple of days. That being said, there is no drop-out grace period. If you reply to my invitation and say that you can do it, I'll be expecting your lines unless there is a emergency.

    If you KNOW you're going to be too busy to record in the next couple of days, then please reply to the invitation letting me know you'll be busy and can't participate. If I don't get a response from you in 24 hours or less from the time I send you the invitation, I'll be generating a new number to take your place.

    Keep in mind that there is a difference between busy and not knowing the song well/not liking the song. If you're going to be fickle depending on the song choice then this project may not be for you. The potential challenge/unfamiliarity is part of the event/game. Try to stick with it. I will always try my absolute best to be respectful towards you and the things you absolutely cannot do. I will re-draw if your name comes up and you've stated you're uncomfortable with the type of song.

    I also promise on everything I love that I will not be tampering with any of the randomization of it all. I will hit generate, and that is that UNLESS two of the same numbers come up or the song that's chosen doesn't have a find-able instrumental.

    To pick your 'parts', all you have to do is post when the thread is opened (I'll let you know) and chose the shape you want.

    The Song?

    Lyrics/Parts:

    Black Lines = EVERYONE records that part.

    ♥ = Saxima

    ★ = Mish

    ✿ = Sumi

    When all of the shapes are black, I've received all confirmations.
    When a shape reverts back to red, it means it's taken by another singer.

    [♦] Bless my soul
    Herc was on a roll
    Person of the week in evry Greek opinion poll

    [✿] What a pro
    Herc could stop a show
    Point him at a monster and you're talking SRO

    [★] He was a no one

    A zero, zero

    [♥] Now he's a honcho

    He's a hero

    [♦] Here was a kid with his act down pat

    From zero to hero in no time flat
    Zero to hero just like that


    When he smiled
    The girls went wild with
    oohs and aahs


    [✿] And they slapped his face
    On ev'ry vase

    [★] (on ev'ry "vase")

    From appearance fees and royalties
    Our Herc had cash to burn
    Now nouveau riche and famous


    [♥] He could tell you
    What the Greecizns earn.

    Say amen
    There he goes again
    Sweet and undefeated
    And an awesome 10 for 10
    Folks lined up
    Just to watch him flex


    [♦] And this perfect package
    packed a pair of pretty pecs

    Hercie, he comes
    He sees, he conquers
    Honey, the crowds were
    Going bonkers
    He showed the moxie brains, and spunk
    From zero to hero


    [✿] a major hunk

    Zero to hero

    [★] and who'da thunk

    [♥] Who put the glad in gladiator?

    Hercules!

    [♦] Whose daring deeds are great theater?

    Hercules

    [✿] Is he bold?

    No one braver

    [★] Is he sweet

    Our favorite flavor
    Hercules, Hercules,
    Hercules, Hercules
    Hercules, Hercules


    Bless my soul
    Herc was on a roll
    Undefeated
    Riding high


    [♥]And the nicest guy

    not conceited

    He was a nothin'
    A zero, zero
    Now he's a honcho
    He's a hero

    He hit the heights at breakneck speed
    From zero to hero
    Herc is a hero
    Now he's a hero
    Yes indeed!

    Thank you. *___*

    Mmkay. So, I've gotten 2/4 confirmations. One person has seen the PM and thread but has neglected to respond. The other hasn't been online. I'll wait for the one who hasn't been on, but I may go ahead and replace the one who seems disinterested before the 24 hour limit, so everyone else has enough time to record and work on it while I'm offline.

    I've opened the thread so that those who have confirmed their places can pick what they want. Before I go away (in a couple of hours) I am going to contact one of the fill-ins.

    I'd like the diamond lines please, just in case you don't see the PM until it's too late. c:

    Some keep the oxygen on standby, because after this I'm sure the people who'll be singing will need a deep breath after all those lines.
    Looking forward to see how this one will be sung though

    Oxygen takes on standby....too bad I don't remember CPR, otherwise that would help too. Unfortunately even though I was good enough in Health Class while i was kid that I was certified to give emergency help, I kinda forgot it
    And I think your biggest concern is probably saying those 6 Hercules' over and over

    Can't WAIT to hear the results of this song, should be amazing :D All the years and millions of times I've watched Hercules and I didn't even realise what half of these lyrics were, I've just kinda made my own up without realising it.

    2/4 received.
    Sumi asked me to let her send it in this morning. It's 2:30pm, lol. Saxima hasn't said anything at all, so.

    gonna contact more fill-ins in 4 hours.
