Hey guys - here you can see the latest draft of the collab video which Gabriel is working on in this very moment:



Now to make this a real GMC hit we need your help with any of the following:

* Send us a video of you shouting "practice". If you havent got a recording setup you can just use the mic of your camera. Be sure not to have any backing music - we want to hear your voice, nothing else. We need as many contributors as possible and we will use ALL. Go for it!!

* Shoot yourself singing the last two choruses (starting at 02:16). We won't be using your audio here, only video. Check http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pn-6eOxnEMIfor inspiration (the band has used videos from their fans to create the music video)

* Shoot yourself singing any other parts of the song. I think it's a little boring to watch me sing the whole tune - I am sure your videos will make it more exciting.

GET RECORDING NOW!!!!!

PS Instructors - join in as well!

Can't wait to see your videos guys!! This will be exciting!!

This will be fun!

What are the lyrics for the chorus?

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Jan 25 2012, 05:32 PM

Here you have it!

We're talking hard...and rocking hard!
You don't know who the hell we are

Day and night, we make it right
And who's to say we've gone too far?

Practice - makes us better
Practice - gives us the strength we need
Practice - you know that we are ready
Practice - That's right baby, 'cause do you know who we are? (We are GMC)

We're flying far away
To the promised land of 'Axe n Shred'
It's time to set the sails

We're loving it, kicking it, playing it and doing it all at...

...GMC!

Hi there
I just stumbled upon this thread yesterday and this song nailed me! So I thought that maybe I could contribute something...
The vids show the second chorus. Don't know if you can use anything... but it was fun anyway!

Ok, here's the video of my solo. As expected, the quality is really bad, so I don't know if it will do . But this camera is not capable of anything better.

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Feb 3 2012, 10:01 PM

It's ok mate! Thanks!

Posted by: Cosmin Lupu Feb 4 2012, 12:16 AM

I have a poor camera, but I would be great to join in. Can I make a short solo for the song? Maybe I can also find a better camera
Regards

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Feb 8 2012, 07:03 PM

hey mate! if you can find a place in this mix to add some melodies I could add them, as well as your video! If not, you could participate recording a video of you singing the chorus or "practice" backing vocals...

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Feb 9 2012, 07:21 PM

Hi friend!! I'm having lots of fun with adding your video takes to the clip!!! Thanks everybody for the entries!!

If there is anybody else that wants to add a "Practice" or "Chorus" video, today is the last day!

This turned out amazingly well! And I love how my favorite word is all through it "PRACTICE!" the video looks just amazing and the edit is really impressive. The effects and graphics are spot on, and the mix RAWKS as a bonus. In short just plain, pure, AWSOMENESS!
