1. You will see a list of songs w/thier artists.
2. You will claim a song to sing. PLEASE make sure no one else has claimed that song. You can scroll up the page again to make sure, we say please, always check the threads.
We only allow a song to be sung once.
3. If someone else has claimed the song you wanted, please choose another song. We go by the time of the claim.

You can get together in groups of 3's and duet the Time Warp, each taking a part, Riff raff, Magenta & Columbia
You will be judged as a group, so select your singers accordingly.. the winners will each get 2 points added to thier
scores and a bonus banner for thier page!

How this is done.
1. First person records the song
2. Second person duets the song and when saving it, opens the duet back up by clicking yes and allowing
duets as it will say no after a duet.
3. Third person goes to duet and adds thier part.
Have Fun!!
