ahhh, I'm so glad you chose that melody. it's been in my head since he posted it. lovelovelove it. can't wait to see how this song turns out with a full band.
LAWL!!!! I've been following this project for a while, and I think its totally AWESOME! Anyways, i was looking for bands that need members via google, so i typed in "Band Auditions" and this video was the second result!!!!!
Wow, this is going by so fast! We already have the whole song and there are member auditions already! Well, this is where I sit back and cheer everyone else on. My song was not used so YAYS to the people who were picked, and good luck to the people auditioning! (By the way...has anyone told you that you look lot like David Tennant? It's the hair. Kinda cool!)
A few questions: Since the chosen melody is now known, should we audition singing/playing this particular song? I guess that would be useful. If so, could johnnydark provide the chords? And finally, can female singers transpose?
Just wondering, considering I did the guitar part originally, do I need to audition again? I mean I might aswell just link one of my other music videos of me playing a whole bunch of instruments :/
I think that's a good plan if you can afford the trip! Flights to London are usually reasonably cheap its not like they're doing it in Macau or something :)
BBC Switch is also following them, so a bunch of people from there may also buy the single. In most cases yours would be a good point, but we're trying to keep the optimism levels high here. :)
DARN! ive been away for a week and just found out about the furthering of the project. that's my video response audition up now but if its not accepted as an audition then i guess that's just had the cooky crumbles. thanks anyways x
hi i have a question, erm if we are going to be putting up an audition for voice or anything, then do we have to sing/play the winning song...if we do could the winner/chartjackers please put up the song lyrics and a more clear sound track for us to learn from please.if not im gonna guess hat just means we can sing any song really...havnt decided properly yet...but yeh thank yoooooooooou! x
So, is the actual recording is still going to be in London? If you do make the band? Kind of sucks for the people who are underage and living in America or somewhere else that's similarly far away.
She has a show called, funnily enough, The Charlotte Church Show. It's a chat show, with funny sketches, and she usually sings with someone at the end. And, yeah, she's pretty big but not as a singer any more - as a TV host and celebrity in general.
I thought is was a really good melody, but perhaps there needs to be a section in a slightly different key or something like that? At the moment everything everything in the song seems quite similar, I think the seperate parts need to be differentiated a bit
Important question! if someone (like me) lives outside britain, films an adition clip, and gets picked, would i have to pay to get to britain, or would that be payed by someone on your side? or is it hopeless for anyone outside britain to get accepted?
I want to do a video to be the drummer, although seeing at its like 10 at night, (the night before the LAST submission date). i hope if i did a quick vid tomorrow morn, on the Wednesday, it will still be okay to send in?! tomorrow at some point?
I kind of like the idea about doing male / female duet if you split of the lyrics, the song actually makes a really sweet conversation like if singer 1 (really the roles can go either gender) sang any of the parts that said "I got nothin' " and then singer 2 would sing any of the parts that build the other up like "Cause you know love ain't forever, But I've won the greatest prize. etc etc etc" I think it would give the song a greater story and more sweetness
I'm not auditioning myself but, in order to make it fair for those who are, I think only one audition per person ought to be allowed. Some people have submitted five or more videos of themselves, either hoping that will make you remember them better or hoping you might one of many videos. It isn't fair and it really shouldn't be allowed. It wouldn't be fair if you chose someone who has submitted more than one audition. Everyone should have the same chance of showing you what they can do. x
It's all going really well. Good decision on the auditions change-of-plan. Btw, Jimmy, however shy you were about it when someone said it before: You are seriously damn cute, mate. :-)
Um... Just a question... I live in CANADA... and nobody wants to start a band with a fourteen year old girl... Do you know what I should do? Cuz I live in medicine hat ab so apparently you're wierd if you like music as much as I do. :C Halp?
The melody has a pretty good chorus, I'm not a fan of the rest of it though. It'll probably sound better when it's all spiffed up. It's pretty much guaranteed that we'll buy the song from, but to get the public on board with that song is probably going to be a bit more difficult.
Just realised video responses wont come up until they're approved by the guys :) Says so once you upload can't wait to see everyone elses and see what people think of mine :D Eeep this project is so exciting haha :D
BUT I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO METING YOU AL! ME AND MY FRIEND HAD GOT EVERYTHNG ARRAGENED, AND WE WERE GOING WEATHER OUR PARENTS LIKED IT OR NOT! -sniff-
Gosh wish I was that age again..oh and yes I could sing...now? so so.. Really enjoyed the video. Well done, and you remind me of a younger..obviously and even cuter David Tennant.That cant be bad,,
Charlotte Church? D: JEALOUSSSS!! And, I wanted you guys to choose the girl with the headphones. >:P I forgot her username, but yeah, I loved hers. AND, I don't like knees. That is all.
They wouldn't be able to provide transport from abroad, since the profit made from the show is going to charity. Also, it is a BBC thing - the British Broadcasting Corporation. Sorry for the bad news. x
A posh toff? Do you even know what that means, or do you just know nothing about about accents and dialects?
ahhh, I'm so glad you chose that melody. it's been in my head since he posted it.
lovelovelove it. can't wait to see how this song turns out with a full band.
The melody sounds great. I can't wait to hear the finished song.
im so glad you cjose that melody!!!! you guys have an ear for good music!!!!
Great melody choice. I'm so excited to see the final product. This is so greeat :D
definitely the best melody, good job guys!
and omg ur hair
sounds nice and catchy, looking forward to the finished product :)
I really like the melody chosen! I'm so glad you picked one of the more pop-ish songs. :D
i like the melody .. this project is going really well ! congratulations
LAWL!!!! I've been following this project for a while, and I think its totally AWESOME! Anyways, i was looking for bands that need members via google, so i typed in "Band Auditions" and this video was the second result!!!!!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow, this is going by so fast! We already have the whole song and there are member auditions already!
Well, this is where I sit back and cheer everyone else on. My song was not used so YAYS to the people who were picked, and good luck to the people auditioning!
(By the way...has anyone told you that you look lot like David Tennant? It's the hair. Kinda cool!)
yay i loved that melody choice! i think it's the catchiest and it's very bubbly!
I'm so happy that melody was chosen. It was my favourite.
i'd kill for a whole video of you saying "london" :)
*melts*
I agree, this one should have won!! I LOVED this one the most!
You met Charlotte, Paul and Lorraine? AWESOME!! Congrats boys!
Oh yes! The right melody won :)
Did enjoy the other entries but that was definately the best for a chance at number 1
A few questions:
Since the chosen melody is now known, should we audition singing/playing this particular song? I guess that would be useful.
If so, could johnnydark provide the chords?
And finally, can female singers transpose?
i honestly CANNOT get over how ridiculously goodlooking this boy is. i mean seriously!! :O
Love the melody, guys! :D
You know I think that melody could actually get us there xD it's got that sort of modern pop-ey happy bouncy thig going on :)
Just wondering, considering I did the guitar part originally, do I need to audition again? I mean I might aswell just link one of my other music videos of me playing a whole bunch of instruments :/
I think that's a good plan if you can afford the trip! Flights to London are usually reasonably cheap its not like they're doing it in Macau or something :)
Great job, dude.
great.youre the nicest humblest guy ever.
So that's how it works. xD
I guess I have to wait too.
This trully is so much fun!
YAY! That was so the best melody!!
I saw that guy, I liked it.
So hope you find a great band.
Such a fun melody!
cant wait for the final results
BBC Switch is also following them, so a bunch of people from there may also buy the single. In most cases yours would be a good point, but we're trying to keep the optimism levels high here. :)
DARN! ive been away for a week and just found out about the furthering of the project. that's my video response audition up now but if its not accepted as an audition then i guess that's just had the cooky crumbles.
thanks anyways

Yayyy that was my fave melody, excellent choice :D
hi i have a question, erm if we are going to be putting up an audition for voice or anything, then do we have to sing/play the winning song...if we do could the winner/chartjackers please put up the song lyrics and a more clear sound track for us to learn from please.if not im gonna guess hat just means we can sing any song really...havnt decided properly yet...but yeh thank yoooooooooou! x
i didnt fight! i merely told you you were the nicest most humble guy ever.ah well. and you corrected something that was obviously an error in typing.
oh wow they chose the melody. That guy was my favourite!
I was going to audition, but i dont stand a chance.. Good luck everyone who was brave enough to try! :) x
Yeah I agree. I wouldn't be able to do any shows or anything but i would still like to audition.
Bloody hell, you ran into some awesome names and STROM TROOPERS! Jealous.
does the song we audition with need to be THEEEE song
or just anything we fancy playing?
Yay, videos are up :D Everyone's are amazing! Welldone guys =]
True, I grant that. Still, I believe that the option should still be available. There are people that are able to afford the trip if selected.
that bare knee was soo sexy!! XD
cant wait to see how you guys progress during the weeks with this insane project!
GO CHARTJACKERS!
peace,
lia♥
So, is the actual recording is still going to be in London? If you do make the band? Kind of sucks for the people who are underage and living in America or somewhere else that's similarly far away.
ohhh I like the melody :D
its so happy sounding !
:D
I might audiiton, but idk... Im probably not good enough.
ChristyFriedRice you are actually amazinggggg you should TOTALLY be in the band fer sure
just wondering.. for the audition do we need to sing/play that song? or can you use another song?
Congratulations! :D
She has a show called, funnily enough, The Charlotte Church Show. It's a chat show, with funny sketches, and she usually sings with someone at the end. And, yeah, she's pretty big but not as a singer any more - as a TV host and celebrity in general.
shoud we audition with our own songs or with the one that you picked for the melody?? im confused... :S
I thought is was a really good melody, but perhaps there needs to be a section in a slightly different key or something like that?
At the moment everything everything in the song seems quite similar, I think the seperate parts need to be differentiated a bit
Important question!
if someone (like me) lives outside britain, films an adition clip, and gets picked, would i have to pay to get to britain, or would that be payed by someone on your side? or is it hopeless for anyone outside britain to get accepted?
Awesome choice for melody =D
I want to do a video to be the drummer, although seeing at its like 10 at night, (the night before the LAST submission date). i hope if i did a quick vid tomorrow morn, on the Wednesday, it will still be okay to send in?! tomorrow at some point?
Do we have to sing that song to that melody for the audition? or any song...
I kind of like the idea about doing male / female duet
if you split of the lyrics, the song actually makes a really sweet conversation
like if singer 1 (really the roles can go either gender)
sang any of the parts that said "I got nothin' "
and then singer 2 would sing any of the parts that build the other up like
"Cause you know love ain't forever,
But I've won the greatest prize.
etc etc etc"
I think it would give the song a greater story and more sweetness
yes! i am so glad chartjackers is doing well
I'm not auditioning myself but, in order to make it fair for those who are, I think only one audition per person ought to be allowed. Some people have submitted five or more videos of themselves, either hoping that will make you remember them better or hoping you might one of many videos.

Good idea!
I was like :Uhhh, I don't live in the Uk! **Sad face**"
but now it's one of those shiny **Happy Face***
Yeah! I can't wait to see who you pick!
Good luck guys! I'll be watching (in a non-creepy way)!
Can you sing any song for your audition? Just wondering, probably a stupid question. I know.
i don't think so, because i presume all the recording and getting together will be done in london... or if not in london un the UK at least...
I absolutely agree. I said this earlier.... I hope they take this into account, that people uploading more than one video are being greedy. x
It's all going really well. Good decision on the auditions change-of-plan.
Btw, Jimmy, however shy you were about it when someone said it before: You are seriously damn cute, mate. :-)
love the melody
aww I was a pretty big fan of the crazy piano kid. Oh well. this one is quite solid I think
To audition for voice shall we just post a song or the the song they're going to use?
hopefully by wednesday cos i want to do my audition early tomorrow morning (on net tomorrow morn)
i realli like the melodie. i think this song is gunna b gr8! the show will b on in a few mins and ive set a reminder hehehe xxx

Um... Just a question... I live in CANADA... and nobody wants to start a band with a fourteen year old girl... Do you know what I should do? Cuz I live in medicine hat ab so apparently you're wierd if you like music as much as I do. :C
Halp?
yey! then we can whach the orditions too!
The melody has a pretty good chorus, I'm not a fan of the rest of it though. It'll probably sound better when it's all spiffed up.

What kind of things should we play for the audition?
ChristyFriedRice:

No - how would you expect to get to the recordings?

OMG THEY PICKED ME!

They wouldn't be able to provide transport from abroad, since the profit made from the show is going to charity. Also, it is a BBC thing - the British Broadcasting Corporation. Sorry for the bad news. x
Nice alternative choice!
