My Ns-themed Song Remakes!

<div class="IPBDescription">"Because You Loved Me" and "In The Navy"</div> Ok, so some of you may remember two months ago, when i came here with a song called "Ode To Commander" which was a remake of Celine Dion's "Because You Loved Me" song, i dont know why i picked that song, probably because it was the most rediculous one i could think of, however, it turned out pretty well i think.

Ive been singing it on the NSA servers pretty regularly, and those who dont mute me think its frickin hilarious, and it was thier encouraging that made me try to get it to be an actaul song with the original backround music, much like many of you guys have already done with your NS-Themed Remakes...

However im a nub in this category, and for the better part of 2 months, all ive been able to do is get a grainy copy of the original song with the vocals largely muted to barely audible levels, and any attempt to sync it with my singing using that big scary Audio Suite has no frickin effect because i dont know what im doing....

So basically i need some help, and i was wondering if anyone could be of any assistance???

Here is the lyrics

Ode To Commander:
A Re-Make of Celine Dion’s “Because You Loved Me”

For all the ammo you gave me
For all the scans you gave me to see
For all the guns that you brought to my life
For all the hives that you made die
For every hive we ran into
The aliens we must pursue
The aliens are dead, commander
You're the one who held us up
Never let us fall
You're the one who saw us through, through it all

You gave me meds when I was weak
You read my mind when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the grunt that was in me
Dropped me HA, As I shout with glee
You gave me guns 'cause you believed
We won the game today
Because you trust me

You gave me wings and made me fly
You dropped a phase to take out the hive
I lost my gun, you gave it back to me
You said no game was out of reach
You stood by me throughout the brawl
We watched in tears, the hive will fall
I’m grateful for each day you commed me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was commed by you

You gave me meds when I was weak
You read my mind when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the grunt that was in me
Dropped me HA, As I shout with glee
You gave me guns 'cause you believed
We won the game today
Because you trust me

You were always there for me
Dropping meds to carry me
Off to the hive, I know I wont die, when you are there
You've been my inspiration
Of all the things we did to lose
The game was a better game because of you

You gave me meds when I was weak
You read my mind when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the grunt that was in me
Dropped me HA, As I shout with glee
You gave me guns 'cause you believed
We won the game today
Because you trust me

You gave me meds when I was weak
You read my mind when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the grunt that was in me
Dropped me HA, As I shout with glee
You gave me guns 'cause you believed
We won the game today
Because you trust me

We won the game today
Because you commed me



And if anyone wants to listen to what i sound like singing it, here is a version i recorded of me singing it on NSA's Servers.... :-P

<a href='http://www.users.muohio.edu/LangJV/Commander1.m3u' target='_blank'>Ode To Commander</a>

I need somene's help either in getting backround music and them singing it synced so it can be released, or telling me in detail (cuz ive been trying and im a total retard with this audio stuff) how to get it done on my own.... <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->



Also, ive been working on a remake of the "In The Navy" Song.. and have hit a brick wall after only one verse...

Im open to ANY AND ALL SUGGESTIONS, as i think finishing this song would be hilarious as well......

This is what i have so far:

Natural Selection, it’s a competition,
fighting aliens, you see?
Where can you begin to battle the enemy
to dominate the galaxy?
Get all of the big guns, Waste all of the ammo,
fight a big bad enemy?
listen to your commands, or your death is at hand
the Kharaa are your enemy

The TSA, fighting for more than just peace
The TSA, don’t you dare sit back at ease.
The TSA, SDJASON to COMMAND
The TSA, though you still may be out manned.
The TSA, come on, you’ve got to understand
The TSA, though we don’t have the upper hand.
The TSA, come on, and we’ll make a stand.
The TSA The TSA The TSA

They want you! They want you! They want you as a new recruit!


and this is what is remaining to finish:




If you like adventure don't you wait to enter
the recruiting office fast.
Don't you hesitate, there is no need to wait;
they're signing up new seamen fast.
Maybe you are too young to join up today
but don't you worry 'bout the thing
for I'm sure there will be always the good Navy
protecting the land and sea.

In the Navy...

They want you! They want you! They want you as a new recruit!
They want you! They want you! They want you as a new recruit!
..But..but..but I'm afraid of water!
..hey..hey..look, men...
I get seasick even watching it on the TV!
They want You! - Oh my goodness!
They want you! - What am I gonna do in a submarine?
They want you! They want you!
In the Navy.

In the Navy... (fade out)


Meh, any help you guys could give me with both of these, thanks a lot!!

    You find a way to make this into a song, it will be apart of my ns_ambient music...

    SDJASON: Marines are expendable.... if you have a postive kill to death ratio... im giving you too many god damn meds.... freaking go do something useful like knife a node, and die already

    Marines were created to survive **** and stuff where the army was supposed to die and be expendable...

    Jason , catch me on IRC in #naturalselection and I would be glad to assist you with any issues you have with sycronization, perhaps even sing it for you.

    I'll be home later tonight around 5.

    I wouldn't say Justin Timberlake...But yeah..good voice. I can't even make my voice go that high....

    I like the comm one (better with music..but thats a WIP). The TSA one sounds weird when I sing it but then again I don't know what the beat should be.

    Congradulations this is gonna be on "The Show" on nsradio, at least parts of it. Tune in Friday april 1st to hear the April Fools have two hours of pure stupid humor on <a href='http://www.nsradio.net' target='_blank'>nsRadio.net</a> 6PM PST.

    I was WAITING for Fangs to pop out of nowhere.

    When "music" or "custom ns sound" is mentioned, FFT people seem to come from random bushes or drop from the cieling magically.
