Okay. So I did a project for school where I wrote a song to a book I read. So I decided to do was write a song to the portal theme. So I need someone to make a GLaDOs voice and match the lyrics to the song. Yes this is okay with my teacher.

Quote from Song


I have a story
Its about me right now: Dra=cula
It takes a while for you to understand it

Wallachia
I drink what I must because I'm dead
For the good of only me
Because I'm real selfish

But there's no sense crying over every mistake
I'll just keep on trying till I kill the human race
And the filing gets done or I'll make another one
To keep my books for when I'm still Alive

I'm not reall evil
I only want you to help me now
Even though I stole you
from your homstead
and ruined your life
and drove your friends across the world

As you died it hurt because I was so happy for you
Now this limited catolouging looks real fine
You kept good order
In that limited time

I'm real sad you got dead
Although not a tear I'll shed
for this time that I'll be still Alive.

Look, it seems, they've found me.
I need to find a good place to hide.
MAybe I'll go to that one monastry thing,
Maybe at Snagov
That was a joke, haha Fat Chance.

Anyways this life is great
Its so unnaturaly long
look at me still stalling when there's people outside
When I look out there it makes me glad I can't die
There are books to collect
and people to abduct
to serve me while they are still alive
And believe me I'm still alive
I'm stalking people and I'm still alive
While they're dying I'll be still alive
When they're dead I will be still alive
Still Alive.
Still Alive.


Here are the portal lyrics for reference: http://www.halflife2.net/forums/showthread.php?t=132255

Apparently you can use this website http://vixy.net/ to convert this karaoke version of the song (I couldn't find a download for it) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70-eEAE7Tvg into an mp3.

I really need some help with this.

Please and thank you.

I got your PM, and I would help, but I don't have anyone to sing the song.

If someone wants to sing the vocal part in time to the acapella, I'd be glad to convert it into a GlaDOS-type voice, but until then I have nothing to work with.

I wish i knew how to make a GLaDOS voice, but all I can do is make a T-Pain voice, and where can that get me?

Oh yeah, a platinum CD.

But I don't have a high voice, can't sing it high enough.

?

Also if you (exilement) really need a voice I could probably sing it. Even though I can't sing really high it is a song about a guy (the person singing is supposed to be dracula) so it might be better if it actually sounded like a guy voice.

Well, you could use a LOT of pitch editing, but it would sound really weird after a certain level.

Go ahead and record yourself singing it and I'll see what I can do with it.

And yeah, FL comes with some kind of vocoder, but that's not what I'd use.

Well it doesn't have to be good.

It just has to work.

=/

And I'd rather not sing.

Edit: It turns out my microphone is brokeneded.

So if you could do that with a crappy robot voice that would be wonderful.

And I would love you forever.

And give you back your dog.

Play Through Portal With Commentary On, I'm Not Sure What Level, But There's One Commentary Where The Voice Actor Explains How They Did Gladdos's Voice, I Think She Talked About Making The Song Too.

Hey. Guys, I has two more days.

Feel free to work on this.

Pweashe?

I really don't mind if it has a computer voice or not. It just needs to be so that I don't have to sing it in public.

hey Exilement? could you tell me what a GlaDOS-type voice is? or is it just a synthesized voice?

If there's a program for doing it, tell me.....

lol...
