copy and pasted credits under the cut bc i ended up writing a lot.

like 3 utau things that im working on bc im suffering and bored but also this kinda only makes me suffer more so idk lol. as you can tell they're super rough and nowhere near done at all lol.

honestly, im not totally sure who made the midi of Candy Store or Walking on Sunshine. The thing about me making utau covers of popular English songs is that theyre more of a personal fun practice "can i finally learn how to do english utau???" plus i never really completely finish or publish anything, so i'm not too sure of any etiquette when it comes to finding random midis and stuff, if it even exists...anyways if i do finish it, since the original midi isnt mine, i dont have any plans on sharing the usts or anything. id be happy to like write the vccv english that i used in a text file and put it on google drive or something, but i dont think i'd feel cool w/ sharing usts based on other things that technically aren't mine? you know? this also goes for the weight of the world english cover that i'm attempting (read: cobbling together noises that vaguely sound like english).

anyways! i'll still try to give credits even tho idk some things! in order of appearance:

Yami Ryone English VCCV belongs to Ts99 (孙雅99) - http://ryoneyami.com/ Candy Store - Heathers the Musical (song written by Laurence O'Keefe and Kevin Murphy. I specifically listened to the version performed by Jessica Keenan Wynn (Heather Chandler), Elle McLemore (Heather McNamara) and Alice Lee (Heather Duke)

Random internet midi - mididb.com (says it's by The MIDI Karaoke Backing Tracks Production Team. yeah, idk who they are either)

音暖ののん / Nono Nonon-English (VCCV) (what a long name...) belongs to hznonosuka - https://hznonoka.wixsite.com/utau

Walking on Sunshine - Katrina and the Waves (written by Kimberley Rew) (although the version that I grew up listening to was Aly and AJ's cover on Disney Channel lol) (the original music video is really silly though too - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iPUmE...)

Random internet midi - freemidi.org (i guess the 14 tracks were every instrument and harmony? aaa i had to sort through it to find the vocal track and it was uhh. a difficult time. it turned out to be track 5.)

Karasu Yuutsukoe / Karasu Yuutsukoe English belongs to revolocities - http://www.karasu.utau.us/

Weight of the World - NieR: Automata OST by Keiichi Okabe/Keigo Hoashi/Kuniyuki Takahashi. Japanese version sung by Marina Kawano, but for the English cover it was J'Nique Nicole. (I'm trying to channel Emi Evans and see if you can uh wrangle the sounds of VCCV English into her famous and confusing Chaos language that's used in the NieR series. it's uh. it's in even more baby stage than this cover and uh. it's nothing but suffering. please don't try to to do pure conlang song covers kids....)

Weight of the World UST - by Drk and Vanillars (https://soundcloud.com/martyrups/the-...) (that's right, this was an actual ust from soundcloud) (their cover w/ Rouon Aro sounds so good! i feel bad that i'll probably be messing up their good tuning later to make the english blend better aaaaaa please listen to the original japanese cover they made on soundcloud!!)

oh, yeah, also sorry for the obs popping up. don't understand what's up with that, but i assume it's insulting my internet connection by the "can't connect to server" or whatever error? if anyone has an answer as of how to stop it from interrupting while im trying to record, you'll be a real swell pal by commenting below on how to stop obs from making my awkward and unprofessional videos even more awkward and unprofessional to watch.

anyways, that's it. fall semester of my senior year of college started a week ago so i'll either be so busy that i can never finish these, or i'll get really bored and procrastinate by actually finishing something.

#utau #gummytruck rambles #i try to make stuff #it doesnt sound good lol

Ravin’ Girls Special Episode: Opal

Episode Summary:

Welcome to our Opal Special Episode, covering the short story released with the paperback edition of The Raven King!

There’s a lot packed into 38 short pages, and both Shannon and Nievita have a lot of feels (ALL THE FEELS!) and a lot to say. Nievita loves little old (Cloud) ladies brazenly reading trashy romance novels (to be fair, Shannon does, too). Shannon thinks Opal needs to be introduced to Mr. Rogers (to be fair, Nievita was unfamiliar with the episode in question). They both agree that Opal is awesome and adorable and also creepy. There’s also plenty of discussion about how the story ties into the upcoming Dreamer Trilogy and what it means for our expectations. As always, stick around to the very end to hear us being ridiculous!
