Calling all J~land!!!

I want J-land to get together to record a song!! I know it sounds lame, and I can already hear some of you saying 'No way, I can't and WONT sing', but please think about it. About 10 years ago, the BBC released a song called 'Perfect day', originally sung by Lou Reed I think, but they managed to get together a whole bunch of people to sing each line. You can check this video out below.

I've ALWAYS wanted to re-create that in the same way.

What I'm proposing is that those who can (anyone with a microphone built into their webcams or external mics) record ONE line of the song and send it to me so that I can fuse em all together. I can even meet you on msn messenger while you record a line using the 'speech' button, or any other way.

It doesn't have to sound great and you can even SPEAK the line if you want, as long as it fits into the song on time and is kinda in tune. It doesn't matter what accent or tone or anything. The main reason for doing this is because we're all different,so nothing matters. As far as I know, this has never been done online in this way, so why let's not give it a go?

I know for a fact that the end result will be awesome, and I'll make a video as well as an mp3 recording with a pic of everyone who took part. I'll work on it and release it as part of J~land's birthday.

Anyone up for it?? Please let me know if you're interested and I'll add the music track on here for you to download, or I'll send by email. Remember, you don't have to record the song. You just have to sing one line onto your pc and I'll do the rest.

Please try to let anyone who might be interested know about this. Thanks a lot.

Thanks!
