SimGirl And Snook's Bad Karaoke Contest - Round 6 Entry - Owl City: FireFlies ruined by SirCork

Hey Again Steemitizens

Lately, I've been trying posting on alternative sites like dlive, dsound, memeit.lol and others, just to keep in touch with what's happening around the platform.

Today, I got asked to enter this contest, so I figure, trying out contests is kinda like trying out other interfaces to the chain, right? Doing something different than I usually do, I guess, is the thing I'm trying to explain here. Maybe it's good to try that sort of thing now and then? The things we don't usually do?

I don't normally enter contests on the platform, preferring to let even smaller minnows than me take their shots at them. And I definitely love to sing, but nobody loves to hear me do it.

But I got asked... so here is my awkward, uncomfortable karaoke video.

I really like fireflies, and I really like this song, and I don't sleep right, and it touches on that too. So there's that. That's why I picked this song to massacre for #KickAssKaraoke Round Six - formerly known as #BadKaraoke if @Snook and @SimGirl do indeed decide to change the name. If so, I leaked it here first. I hope that doesn't screw up my chances of winning!

(By the way, I don't even know what the prize is. I am doing this for fun, and cause I was invited to participate.)

Here is my entry:

Here's the original:

For a brief comparison, I overlaid a short clip of the the original with the matching section of my karaoke version, sloppily aligning the audio tracks on the fly from youtube by ear and doing so badly.
