- Click tracks below!
- Make sure there are NO other background sounds like talking, yelling, cars, trains, buses, planes, donkeys, horses, elephants!
- Clap out loud 3 times on the same 3 claps you hear in the recording so we can sync your audio more easily
- Sing your melody or harmony part of the WHOLE song!
- LOOKING FOR SOLOISTS ON VERSES: Pay attention to your sound while recording soloist videos!
- Annabelle would like EVERYONE to try the solo, so please submit a video of you singing the ENTIRE song all the way through. Verses AND choruses! It’s okay if it’s not perfect - accept the challenge!!

- Record multiple videos until you get it precise with your pitches, vocal quality and phrases matching the vocal example you hear and sing along with in the recording.
- Perform with energy the ENTIRE time! Even when not singing! Show your natural expression of the lyrics of the song! See video example videos below.
