I had a dream, once. A dream that <a href="http://www.songfight.net/forums/viewtopic.php?p=3988#3988">SongFighters would unite to cover The Sound of Music in its entirety</a>. Some SongFighters couldn't do it, though, so a bunch of other, cooler and more noble Fighters stepped up to the plate, and now it's going to go down. However! I am in search of a kind soul who will do justice to the song "Something Good." (A crappy website that has the lyrics is <a href="http://www.metrolyrics.com/lyrics/43654/The_Sound_Of_Music/Something_Good_(Maria_And_The_Captain)/">here</a>.

Besides that, though, I'd like to invite anybody who wishes to cover a song from "The Sound of Music" to do so. They'll be put up on the page along with the officially-requisitioned tracklist, and I'll call 'em bonus tracks. It'll be brilliant.

To the people whom I have asked to do songs: do your songs! Don't forget, get them in by FEBRUARY 28, and then I'll make a page once they're all done.

And that pretty much finishes it as well, no?

not quite...

I was thinking the same thing.

I would LOVE to cover a song from Sound-Of-Music. Don't know if I'll have time so I guess I'll be a potential 'Bonus Track'.. but if I find time soon I'll try your missing track 'Something Good.'

Oh my god I would totaly be into this. I want "16 going on 17" so bad. That would be the song I would want to cover so bad. I even know a girl who would do the girls parts and I would do the guy parts. (Not to mension I'm 18 and she's 17)...

EDIT:

Darn. I read the old thread. You've already got artists layed out.

I dreamed of Hoblit singing "16 Going on 17" once. I posted to that effect in the ol' Monkey Affairs II thread.

You can cover it too.

Set a deadline, please, even if it is months away.

by **mkilly** » Wed Jan 12, 2005 3:58 pm

Okay um... February... 28.

by **Hoblit** » Wed Jan 12, 2005 5:47 pm

Hopefully I'm in

I love this movie. Always have. Running out of time.

by **Hoblit** » Wed Jan 12, 2005 5:52 pm

also, for those of you who can't sing. PLEASE do not attempt Edelweiss. Thank you.

Feel free to butcher any other song. I certainly will.

Ummmm..... there goes that idea :lol:

by **Caravan Ray** » Wed Jan 12, 2005 7:18 pm

I'm seriously thinking of having a go at Eidleweiss - regardless of what Hoblit thinks of my singing

(I also still can't get the idea of a Rolf Harris Coverfight out of my head. That would be totally awesome!)

by **Denyer** » Wed Jan 12, 2005 9:37 pm

Do people in other countries even know rolf harris? We can have a two person coverfight if they don't.

by **Caravan Ray** » Wed Jan 12, 2005 9:45 pm

Ha!

The Poms would know who he is - the Seppos probably don't (silly bastards don't know anything).

I'd love to hear you do Jake the Peg:

I'm Jake the Peg
I got three legs
I'm gonna shoot you in the head...

by **Denyer** » Wed Jan 12, 2005 9:47 pm

Ha ha. Maybe I will.

by **mkilly** » Mon Feb 21, 2005 5:44 am

One cover's in, and it's an excellent ambient-y electronica thing. More to come, everybody's still invited to submit anything they like up until 11:59 pm February 28th!

Kellis:

Where do I send my song to? Tell me quick, and then I will be able to get it in by the deadline.

I am up against the clock on this one. I may or may not have something ready in time.

Being on overnight shifts was enough to really, REALLY mess with my head for a while there. I am back to my normal shifts on monday though! Glee!

ROCK!
