Haha Steffen, this is an easy one- relatively straight forward even...I was going to have you all cover Motorhead, but thought better of it- here we go!
Seasons of the Ukulele Season 18
Starts- Sunday June 16th, Ends Sunday June 23rd.
CHALLENGE
Record any song as a duet. My favorite videos are the ones where we collaborate, or drag our mates into them, or our significant others, so I figure this a convenient way to ask for more. Song may be an original composition or a cover.
PARAMETERS
Video must be one take (it may be take 56)- no overdubs. It must also be a new video.
Both parties in your duet need not play the Ukulele, but both need to sing parts of the arrangement.
The Ukulele must be the central instrument in your arrangement
State at the beginning of your video that it is for Season 18 of the Ukulele
Post your videos in this thread
Duets may be male-female or single gender
Multiple versions of the same song are OK
You may enter as many times as you would like, but your final video is the one that is judged
JUDGING CRITERIA
Points will be awarded as follows:
Musicianship /15 (this is an overall score for both people if both play)
Singing /15 (applied to both singers)
Overall performance /10 (this is your ability to sell the song...charm and panache folks)
Set and Costume /10 (I hate doing this part, but like watching it)
This allows for fifty points from each judge. Scores will be collated and averaged for final score.
*** BONUS POINTS You had to know that was coming. Many singers leave us way too early, one of the finest IMHO was Miss Tammi Terrell. Together with Marvin Gaye she left quite a mark on the music world for a 24 year old. Do one of their songs and you get +3
Your esteemed panel of judges is as follows: Myself, Roxhum, Ksiegel, Canoelady and 23skidoo.
