Zygen Being a Manly Man! (I'll Make a Man Out of You Cover From Mulan)

Alright guys, so today is Monday, and it was a slow day, slow to get up, slow for school, ect. Mondays are always kinda slow ;p.

 

But anyways, I got home today, and my stepdad was out of the house on errands, and my mom was outside working (She works till 6, and doesn't come inside all that often.) and my brother had practice for Football.

 

So I decided it was a nice time to try and sing something, because I like singing, and that's basically what I do most times i'm home alone ;p. If not that and something else.

 

So this time, I decided to try doing "I'll Make a Man Out of You" from Mulan, why? Because Disney songs are fun to sing! And this one is fun to sing too(Fun fact, i've never actually seen Mulan) so of course I decided I was in the mood for it, and tried it out!

 

I originally thought i'd only be able to get in like 1-2 recordings, but I actually got in like 4-5 attempts, which is pretty good considering my first run was kinda eh.

 

By the 2nd or 3rd I had got the hang of things a bit, and so I decided that after listening to them some, that I would upload some, because why not? ;p(I love torturing your eardrums anyways :D.

 

So without further ado, enjoy my cover attempt at "I'll Make a Man Out of You" from Mulan.

Again, this is basically unedited, no autotune or anything(atleast to my knowledge, unless audacity does some kinda auto pitch correction or something, I don't really care for autotune in most cases when it comes to singing, but that's another discussion ;p.)

The only thing I did in audacity was stick the instrumental on, record my voice, edit out the noise in the background as much as I could without disrupting the audio quality to much, and threw in some gain so my quiet mic would allow you to hear me hopefully!

 

Hope you enjoy! Overall this run was pretty clean in my opinion, I actually considered just putting this on my regular blog, but idk, i'm starting to like putting my music on a specific blog, like all of it, but I am unsure, maybe you all can offer some input as to what you think I should do concerning this blog.

 

There are a few times I get off key, and miss some note, I also feel like I breath kinda heavily sometimes, but that's kinda something I've always sorta done, so idk how much I can fix that. Besides editing out breaths maybe.

 

Oh, and I cannot sing the random speaking part Mulan does, or really most of the speaking part anyways xD, i tried anyways ;p.

 

Oh and one more thing, I decided to throw this in as a little extra bonus material thingy, I don't know if this will become a reoccuring thing with this blog, I have thought of posting multiple recordings, and seeing what people think of each, but I don't want to bother people with having to listen to multiple recordings of me singing the same song, so I try and narrow it down to a single recording.

 

This time, I had a recording in which I messed up the lyrics to the chorus like twice, although otherwise it was pretty good, so I figured for either humorous reasons to laugh at the fact I can't sing lyrics, or simply if your curious as to how some of the other recordings went, that i'd post another recording as bonus material or something.

 

So here's the "bonus material" which is inferior in my opinion to the other recording, but I will post regardless. Tell me what you think if you do listen!

Alright, that's all for today I think folks, I'll have to see if I want to throw my random "Let it Go" cover I have on my computer at y'all or not, i'm debating on that one, since it's kinda overdone, and not the greatest attempt ever, leave your input if you'd like.

 

And thanks for taking the time to listen to myself sing! It really means a lot to me! Simply knowing that someone atleast was able to tolerate listening to me cover a song.

 

Have an awesome day!
