chaosfreak - GH:WoR! Vox FC #1 - Bohemian Rhapsody

[chaosfreak07]

October 2, 2010:

So I have GH:WoR now, and got a pretty nice new vox FC in the form of Bohemian Rhapsody. More info in the bump.

September 20, 2010:

Just thought i'd post this, to mention why I haven't been updating lately. I've been busy with school, and I haven't really found much to do in this game recently. Not to mention I spent about a month with Green Day Rock Band getting the triple FGFC. I FC'd Brianstorm (on vox, of course) shortly before I bought GD:RB, but never even updated with it because I was lazy. For the time being i've mostly just been watching TV, doing school work as I mentioned, and other stuff, but I haven't had much motivation to play GH as of recent.

Don't worry, i'm not quitting. I'm still gonna buy GH:WoR eventually, but not this week, that's for sure. Sorry to say, but after all of that, I have nothing to update with here.

July 21, 2010:

Time for another helping of GH5 FCs:
Hungry Like the Wolf
Bring the Noise 20XX
Lithium (Live)
The Spirit of Radio (Live)
Kryptonite

And the two big ones:
Sweating Bullets
Sultans of Swing - This was my 250th GH vox FC, and makes for a good one.

That brings me to having 1/4 of the game FC'd.

July 18, 2010:

After I felt like playing some GH5 vox yesterday, here's what came out of it:

Steady, As She Goes
Bullet With Butterfly Wings - Both of these were fairly basic.

American Girl - Not the easiest one around, but it certainly has some nasty parts at times.

Superstition - Uh...pretty cool, I guess? This didn't take as long as I thought it would, but it is certainly not easy.

So yeah, major progress here, I can definitely get more done but won't have the easiest time.

June 27, 2010:

The Black River Bass FC - Got this yesterday, took three chokes after that weird gallopy part. This puts me at the 40 on-disc FC mark, and for the guest acts, all but War Ensemble are cleared off. As for that one...maybe someday by a stretch of the imagination, but not now, that's for sure.

Also, I thought i'd get myself a formspring account: http://www.formspring.me/chaosfreakSH I made it because I was bored and want questions to answer Go crazy.

June 26, 2010:

Well, I only have one FC for this update, but it's a pretty good one.

Disposable Heroes Bass FC - This song is like The Takedown, except on a LOT of crack and over twice as long. I had one pretty bad choke very late in the song, and another near said point, but I managed to get it rather quickly. The last seven songs outside of the monster three i'm still kinda shaky on, though. But for now, this will do.

June 23, 2010:

Got a few pretty good GHM Bass FCs. They weren't exactly easy, and I can get more, but it won't necessarily be easy.

Welcome Home (Sanitarium) - This was one I was dreading trying to FC the most because of that weird part near the end, combined with the end strumming. But I got the full song FC first try after hitting both sections in practice. o_O

Battery - Similar to 2 Minutes to Midnight in GH5, this is an example of a Rock Band chart gone bad, though not as "pointlessly stupid".

Creeping Death - My favorite bass chart in the game. Extremely fun to play.

See the bump for more in-detail and a breakdown of the remaining songs.

June 12, 2010:

Turn Off the Light can die in a fire. My results with grinding it earlier this week have been really unpleasant. So until then, all I can do is pick up other BH FCs, and redux some bad FFs. Read the bump for details.

June 5, 2010:

GH Van Halen Vox FGFC! =) Had a lot of songs that were fun to learn, but a few that weren't. I saved my favorite songs for the end. Go look at the bump for more info about it.

June 3, 2010:

So I snagged the Wii version of Van Halen, meaning i'll be able to get the FGFC easier. Like with Metallica, i'll have to jump between consoles for certain songs. I got the two monsters in relatively short time periods:

Ice Cream Man

Semi-Charmed Life

There's still a fair bit I have to do, though.

June 1, 2010:

First up, two Band Hero FCs I got yesterday.
Fascination - This was a re-FC because my first FC sucked when I forgot to drop the last activation where I should have. I don't care if people hate this song, I LOVE it :P
Love Story - Easier than I remember it being. Two tries, bad score.

Now for the VH FCs:
Somebody Get Me A Doctor - Had some pitches that were weird to discern, and one tiny kicker phrase.
Romeo Delight - Choruses are finicky.
Mean Street - Very tricky, choked the last pitched phrase at one point.
Pretty Fly (For a White Guy) - Sightread FC.
Everybody Wants Some!! - Extremely fun to sing.

Pretty good bunch here.

May 26, 2010:

Uh...

21st Century Schizoid Man
Song 2

Those two are easy, but then you have THESE...

Fame
So Lonely

The latter was a far more painful grind, but it's nice to have knocked these guys down.

May 25, 2010:

I'M THE ONE GH EXPERT VOX FC #200 - A pretty good way to mark a point like this. I'm also getting much better at the GH5 engine, and am hoping to get what I can there. Read the bump for more.

May 24, 2010:

Smash Hits Vox FGFC. It was inevitable after the Killer Queen FC, but yeah. Check the bump for more details.

May 23, 2010:

Just one FC this update, but it's definitely one i'm proud of.
Killer Queen Vocals FC - Long overdue FC, and i'm never playing that song again. Feels so relieved that it's no more.

May 22, 2010:

Another haul of Smash Hits vox FCs, some pretty good. Read the bump for more details.

May 21, 2010:

Trippin' on a Hole in a Paper Heart Bass FC - This chart can be horribly strict.

Shout at the Devil Bass FC

Having my throat get better, I decided to do some more singing:

Take What You Take Vox FC - Got this after watching Wooffus sing this in her stream while playing with kire. The verses took a bit of trips in practice, but FC first try in a run. =)

PLAY WITH ME VOX FC - Oh HELL yes! After way too many misses in different spots, I sure am glad to have got this. ^_^

Cowboys From Hell (Live) Bass FC - Easily one of my best GH Bass FCs yet, if not my best.

May 12, 2010:

Well, I finished the GH Metallica vox FGFC. For now, read the bump for info. I'll probably edit this more later, but right now it's 11:30 at night and i'm really tired.

May 9, 2010:

Didn't have much time to play today, so I only got two FCs, both on Wii, but i'd say they were both pretty good ones.

Stacked Actors - I wasted about an hour with this on 360 yesterday, farthest I got with my streak intact before breaking it was last phrase of second verse. I'll most likely re-FC it on 360 later.

STONE COLD FUCKING CRAZY - Got this first try after setting my audio lag. Laughably bad last freeform, but I don't give a damn.

They came rather quickly, and I guess that's what happens when I play them on 360 so much.

May 8, 2010:

Welcome Home (Sanitarium) - This one I had to do a lot of octave shifting on. And I had a choke on the second to last phrase. Darn.

King Nothing - This one had some oddities, but good thing I took it into practice. Unfortunately, as far as scoring goes, I had only my bare hands, and it resulted in me getting the lowest FC score of anyone. If someone can give me the optimal path, that'd be nice.

Hit the Lights - Took way too many tries, and I had a careless choke on "We got the lethal power". I'm not playing this one again anytime soon, that's for sure. >_>

For Whom the Bell Tolls - Easy. Horrible first FF though.

Mommy's Little Monster - Not too bad.

Albatross - Arguably the best FC here. Took quite a bit of grinding and choking.

The Memory Remains - Two 74th phrase chokes, one on the last. Short phrases can really suck sometimes.

Enter Sandman - Two tries, neither on that one phrase that gave me difficulty in RB1.

I also found the Wii version of the game, but caved and had to get it new. I FC'd Tuesday's Gone on it, and I have a pic, but it's on my iPhone which hasn't connected to my computer yet. Read the bump for my experience with the Wii version.

May 6, 2010:

Time for another productive evening:
Mercyful Fate - Arguably the best FC of this bunch. After going into practice and learning Satan's Fall, and the other parts, I was ready. I had three chokes in Evil, two on "And now i'm king of pain", and one on the first "Old lady cry". And a handful of chokes in Into the Coven, especially on "And meet our high priestess". While i'm no dr00bles or Wooffus, i'm pretty happy with 536.9k.
Am I Evil? - Yep, as you can guess, this one required some patience. Main choke spots were on phrases with slide parts, such as "As I watched my mother die". Thankfully, got the full song FC first time I made it to the second half. Just short of 300k, but I really don't feel like playing this again.
Hell Bent for Leather - Took two tries after hitting those two weird phrases in training.
Beautiful Mourning - FUCK YOU ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And if anyone's wondering how i'm doing with SCC, I played it twice today, both were -7's. I've only hit "I gotta get me get up and run" once, and it wasn't in a run where I was trying to FC the song. So for now, it's a matter of IF, NOT when, I can get more consistent at that phrase to go for the full song FC on 360.

May 5, 2010:

Um, well, I...

Fight Fire with Fire vox FC - I can't write anything here while i'm shaking. I'll edit this spot later.

May 3, 2010:

Band Hero bass FGFC. Not the easiest bass FGFC I have (i'd say that goes to TBRB), but still not too big a deal. Later today, I decided to play some GHM, and after sucking on bass, I did a bit of nice vocals stuff. Read bump for details.

May 1, 2010:

World Tour Vox FGFC! These were my last few FCs:

Love Spreads - This took longer than it should have. I had a few misses on those high parts in the choruses, and a choke at about 54 phrases, somewhere around there.
Rebel Yell - Repetitive, and not too tough, but this was a lot of fun to sing.
Nuvole E Lenzuola - By far the most irritating FC of this bunch. I had a ton of restarts on the 12th phrase, and a choke on the 58th. And I sorta wasted a bit of SP at the end. Don't care, I don't want to sing this again.
Weapon of Choice - Don't remember much about this one, except I got a few yellows at the end that don't look like they should have been. ;/
Band on the Run - Since this one was long, I had to go into practice and get everything down. First try after training = FC. And since it's Paul McCartney, it has to be good.
Hollywood Nights - After watching Wooffus' vid, I went for this one. I had two misses on the 13th phrase, and two on the 43rd, but I got it. I hoarded SP at the end to be ready for the freeform, so I wasted some, but it's an FC.
Assassin - Mostly long holds, so it wasn't tough, but at some points I didn't get the pitch right on. I'll go back for all green flashes later.
Scream Aim Fire - This one's quite fun once you get it down. Got it first try after training. Broken freeforms FTL though.
Too Much, Too Young, Too Fast - The last chorus wasn't too bad. The verses were harder, but not that that means anything.
Re-Education Through Labor - Not much I remember about this one, but it was pretty cool.
Mr. Crowley - Kinda neat, except for having two chokes on "I wanna know what you meant" at the end. And broken freeforms.
Sweet Home Alabama (Live) - In practice, there were a few phrases that were being picky, but I got it first try in a real run. No SP for the fifth FF though, so i'll probably re-do it.
Hot for Teacher - This was my last FC because I wanted to finish with a bang, and this song sure has that factor to it (to me, that's mostly because of the guitar playing). In terms of singing it, it's David Lee Roth, so it has to be awesome. Anyways, this took two tries, one being a restart after a Sloppy on the first "But then my homework was never quite like this". Stupid harmonies. >_>

All of that down, I have to say I honestly didn't think this would happen at first. Thanks everyone who supported me throughout this ^_^

Maybe next i'll look for a cheap Wii version of Metallica or Van Halen and attempt to FGFC that...after I FGFC Band Hero bass first.

April 29, 2010:

First up, the vox FCs.
Shiver - After seeing BrianBAM's vid of this, and spending time in practice with it, I decided I was ready to get back at this one. After a few tries, I made it to the end...only to choke on the last phrase. My throat was hurting after this. And guess what else? I like this band a lot. And I have no idea why people hate them. So sue me if you please.
Love Removal Machine - I don't know what it was, my anticipating a much crazier song, the fact that the phrases are just cool, or the singer's voice, but this song was freaking awesome to play.
Toy Boy - Having gotten down those "You bla-ey-ame me for the day" parts in practice, I decided to do a run. First time making it to the dododededododedes = FC. All my misses came in the verses.
Spiderwebs - Good thing I was able to find a video of this one. So I took the song into practice, and after a bit of time with it, I got the full song FC in ONE TRY. I literally scared myself. o_O

And while I was here, I decided to do some Bass, as well. Here are the notable FCs that came out of it:
Prisoner of Society - Sweet. This didn't take long.
Trapped Under Ice
Hollywood Nights - Why do people have such a hard time with this song?
Mr. Crowley

April 28, 2010:

Stranglehold - I actually got this the same night I got American Woman and Vicarious (after I did that update). Good thing practice mode exists in this game, because this would have been torture without it. I had two chokes after the long break, one on the first "Come on, come on, come on" and one on the THIRD TO LAST PHRASE. Unfortunately, on the FC run, I rushed the last activation because I forgot there were freeforms, causing my SP to miss the first one by a hair and have none for the last one. Whatever.
Kick Out the Jams - I took a lot of time in practice mode to get everything down here. This was a little weird, but thankfully I had no chokes in the last verse. I'd say I lost about 50 minutes to this one.
The Joker - This one, on the other hand, was even worse. I managed to learn the verses in practice, but in real runs it just really got stupid. I counted a total of a whopping EIGHT chokes on the 33rd phrase (the "Woo-hoo" after the break), two on the 38th, and one on the second to last. And to top it all off, I came pretty close to missing the last phrase, and nearly had a heart attack.
Hotel California - Fun song. Got it first try after a bit of time in training.
The Kill - This was a real throat killer at some parts.

Now for today's treasures:
Hail to the Freaks - Don't remember too much about this one, except there was one part in the second chorus that I missed on a few times.
Vinternoll2 - This one was just...weird. Got it after a lot of time in practice, and I knew the freeforms were broken. Didn't use SP in any of them, and I forgot to activate on one phrase near the end, so awful score.
Soul Doubt - That "I gotta know what she's all about" phrase in the middle gave me a bit of a problem. Not to mention I dislike this song, so it's a good thing I got it out of the way. Also, fun fact: When I imported this score, I saw this when the page refreshed with it. So many zeros.
Escuela de Calor - Foreign songs usually tend to be difficult, and this is no exception. Of course, tidus' vid really helped. The first time I made it to that middle which he said was the hard part, I had one miss on the last all singing phrase of it. That section is easy to run out of breath on. Other than that, it's a very cool song musically, too.
One Armed Scissor - The "unknown origins" part took a bit of time to get down, as did the bridge leading into the final chorus. I didn't have any chokes in the latter, but LOTS of stupid misses in the former. But worst of all, I had a choke on the last phrase. That's what I get for not being ready for it

See the bump for summaries of the songs I have left.

April 26, 2010:

Vicarious - Yep, that's right. I had to do whatever I could to ingrain it in my head. I had two chokes on the first "La la la la, la la la lie", one on the phrase before "from a distance", and quite a few others to count. Good think the stuff after the freeforms is the easy part. 440.4k is good enough for me.

Love Me Two Times - This one was an absolute jerk. It got really irritating to learn. I had two chokes on the 36th phrase, one on the second to last, and a few on the first "Yeah, my knees get weak". Not my idea of a fun time.

Ramblin' Man - Didn't take too long, had two misses in the first verse and one in the second. However I made a stupid SP mistake when I had a full bar at the end and forgot to activate on the last phrase, so it all went into the freeform, but whatever.

American Woman - Here, I was actually having a harder time getting to the ending with an FC *cough "Got more important things to do" cough* than the ending itself. In fact, I got the full song FC the first time I made it past the freeform with an FC. So many close calls.

Mountain Song - Not much to say about this one. I'll just say it went well and leave it at that.

October 2, 2010:

So I have GH:WoR now, and got a pretty nice new vox FC in the form of Bohemian Rhapsody. More info in the bump.

September 20, 2010:

Just thought i'd post this, to mention why I haven't been updating lately. I've been busy with school, and I haven't really found much to do in this game recently. Not to mention I spent about a month with Green Day Rock Band getting the triple FGFC. I FC'd Brianstorm (on vox, of course) shortly before I bought GD:RB, but never even updated with it because I was lazy. For the time being i've mostly just been watching TV, doing school work as I mentioned, and other stuff, but I haven't had much motivation to play GH as of recent.

Don't worry, i'm not quitting. I'm still gonna buy GH:WoR eventually, but not this week, that's for sure. Sorry to say, but after all of that, I have nothing to update with here.

July 21, 2010:

Time for another helping of GH5 FCs:
Hungry Like the Wolf
Bring the Noise 20XX
Lithium (Live)
The Spirit of Radio (Live)
Kryptonite

And the two big ones:
Sweating Bullets
Sultans of Swing - This was my 250th GH vox FC, and makes for a good one.

That brings me to having 1/4 of the game FC'd.

July 18, 2010:

After I felt like playing some GH5 vox yesterday, here's what came out of it:

Steady, As She Goes
Bullet With Butterfly Wings - Both of these were fairly basic.

American Girl - Not the easiest one around, but it certainly has some nasty parts at times.

Superstition - Uh...pretty cool, I guess? This didn't take as long as I thought it would, but it is certainly not easy.

So yeah, major progress here, I can definitely get more done but won't have the easiest time.

June 27, 2010:

The Black River Bass FC - Got this yesterday, took three chokes after that weird gallopy part. This puts me at the 40 on-disc FC mark, and for the guest acts, all but War Ensemble are cleared off. As for that one...maybe someday by a stretch of the imagination, but not now, that's for sure.

Also, I thought i'd get myself a formspring account: http://www.formspring.me/chaosfreakSH I made it because I was bored and want questions to answer Go crazy.

June 26, 2010:

Well, I only have one FC for this update, but it's a pretty good one.

Disposable Heroes Bass FC - This song is like The Takedown, except on a LOT of crack and over twice as long. I had one pretty bad choke very late in the song, and another near said point, but I managed to get it rather quickly. The last seven songs outside of the monster three i'm still kinda shaky on, though. But for now, this will do.

June 23, 2010:

Got a few pretty good GHM Bass FCs. They weren't exactly easy, and I can get more, but it won't necessarily be easy.

Welcome Home (Sanitarium) - This was one I was dreading trying to FC the most because of that weird part near the end, combined with the end strumming. But I got the full song FC first try after hitting both sections in practice. o_O

Battery - Similar to 2 Minutes to Midnight in GH5, this is an example of a Rock Band chart gone bad, though not as "pointlessly stupid".

Creeping Death - My favorite bass chart in the game. Extremely fun to play.

See the bump for more in-detail and a breakdown of the remaining songs.

June 12, 2010:

Turn Off the Light can die in a fire. My results with grinding it earlier this week have been really unpleasant. So until then, all I can do is pick up other BH FCs, and redux some bad FFs. Read the bump for details.

June 5, 2010:

GH Van Halen Vox FGFC! =) Had a lot of songs that were fun to learn, but a few that weren't. I saved my favorite songs for the end. Go look at the bump for more info about it.

June 3, 2010:

So I snagged the Wii version of Van Halen, meaning i'll be able to get the FGFC easier. Like with Metallica, i'll have to jump between consoles for certain songs. I got the two monsters in relatively short time periods:

Ice Cream Man

Semi-Charmed Life

There's still a fair bit I have to do, though.

June 1, 2010:

First up, two Band Hero FCs I got yesterday.
Fascination - This was a re-FC because my first FC sucked when I forgot to drop the last activation where I should have. I don't care if people hate this song, I LOVE it :P
Love Story - Easier than I remember it being. Two tries, bad score.

Now for the VH FCs:
Somebody Get Me A Doctor - Had some pitches that were weird to discern, and one tiny kicker phrase.
Romeo Delight - Choruses are finicky.
Mean Street - Very tricky, choked the last pitched phrase at one point.
Pretty Fly (For a White Guy) - Sightread FC.
Everybody Wants Some!! - Extremely fun to sing.

Pretty good bunch here.

May 26, 2010:

Uh...

21st Century Schizoid Man
Song 2

Those two are easy, but then you have THESE...

Fame
So Lonely

The latter was a far more painful grind, but it's nice to have knocked these guys down.

May 25, 2010:

I'M THE ONE GH EXPERT VOX FC #200 - A pretty good way to mark a point like this. I'm also getting much better at the GH5 engine, and am hoping to get what I can there. Read the bump for more.

May 24, 2010:

Smash Hits Vox FGFC. It was inevitable after the Killer Queen FC, but yeah. Check the bump for more details.

May 23, 2010:

Just one FC this update, but it's definitely one i'm proud of.
Killer Queen Vocals FC - Long overdue FC, and i'm never playing that song again. Feels so relieved that it's no more.

May 22, 2010:

Another haul of Smash Hits vox FCs, some pretty good. Read the bump for more details.

May 21, 2010:

Trippin' on a Hole in a Paper Heart Bass FC - This chart can be horribly strict.

Shout at the Devil Bass FC

Having my throat get better, I decided to do some more singing:

Take What You Take Vox FC - Got this after watching Wooffus sing this in her stream while playing with kire. The verses took a bit of trips in practice, but FC first try in a run. =)

PLAY WITH ME VOX FC - Oh HELL yes! After way too many misses in different spots, I sure am glad to have got this. ^_^

Cowboys From Hell (Live) Bass FC - Easily one of my best GH Bass FCs yet, if not my best.

May 12, 2010:

Well, I finished the GH Metallica vox FGFC. For now, read the bump for info. I'll probably edit this more later, but right now it's 11:30 at night and i'm really tired.

May 9, 2010:

Didn't have much time to play today, so I only got two FCs, both on Wii, but i'd say they were both pretty good ones.

Stacked Actors - I wasted about an hour with this on 360 yesterday, farthest I got with my streak intact before breaking it was last phrase of second verse. I'll most likely re-FC it on 360 later.

STONE COLD FUCKING CRAZY - Got this first try after setting my audio lag. Laughably bad last freeform, but I don't give a damn.

They came rather quickly, and I guess that's what happens when I play them on 360 so much.

May 8, 2010:

Welcome Home (Sanitarium) - This one I had to do a lot of octave shifting on. And I had a choke on the second to last phrase. Darn.

King Nothing - This one had some oddities, but good thing I took it into practice. Unfortunately, as far as scoring goes, I had only my bare hands, and it resulted in me getting the lowest FC score of anyone. If someone can give me the optimal path, that'd be nice.

Hit the Lights - Took way too many tries, and I had a careless choke on "We got the lethal power". I'm not playing this one again anytime soon, that's for sure. >_>

For Whom the Bell Tolls - Easy. Horrible first FF though.

Mommy's Little Monster - Not too bad.

Albatross - Arguably the best FC here. Took quite a bit of grinding and choking.

The Memory Remains - Two 74th phrase chokes, one on the last. Short phrases can really suck sometimes.

Enter Sandman - Two tries, neither on that one phrase that gave me difficulty in RB1.

I also found the Wii version of the game, but caved and had to get it new. I FC'd Tuesday's Gone on it, and I have a pic, but it's on my iPhone which hasn't connected to my computer yet. Read the bump for my experience with the Wii version.

May 6, 2010:

Time for another productive evening:
Mercyful Fate - Arguably the best FC of this bunch. After going into practice and learning Satan's Fall, and the other parts, I was ready. I had three chokes in Evil, two on "And now i'm king of pain", and one on the first "Old lady cry". And a handful of chokes in Into the Coven, especially on "And meet our high priestess". While i'm no dr00bles or Wooffus, i'm pretty happy with 536.9k.
Am I Evil? - Yep, as you can guess, this one required some patience. Main choke spots were on phrases with slide parts, such as "As I watched my mother die". Thankfully, got the full song FC first time I made it to the second half. Just short of 300k, but I really don't feel like playing this again.
Hell Bent for Leather - Took two tries after hitting those two weird phrases in training.
Beautiful Mourning - FUCK YOU ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And if anyone's wondering how i'm doing with SCC, I played it twice today, both were -7's. I've only hit "I gotta get me get up and run" once, and it wasn't in a run where I was trying to FC the song. So for now, it's a matter of IF, NOT when, I can get more consistent at that phrase to go for the full song FC on 360.

May 5, 2010:

Um, well, I...

Fight Fire with Fire vox FC - I can't write anything here while i'm shaking. I'll edit this spot later.

May 3, 2010:

Band Hero bass FGFC. Not the easiest bass FGFC I have (i'd say that goes to TBRB), but still not too big a deal. Later today, I decided to play some GHM, and after sucking on bass, I did a bit of nice vocals stuff. Read bump for details.

May 1, 2010:

World Tour Vox FGFC! These were my last few FCs:

Love Spreads - This took longer than it should have. I had a few misses on those high parts in the choruses, and a choke at about 54 phrases, somewhere around there.
Rebel Yell - Repetitive, and not too tough, but this was a lot of fun to sing.
Nuvole E Lenzuola - By far the most irritating FC of this bunch. I had a ton of restarts on the 12th phrase, and a choke on the 58th. And I sorta wasted a bit of SP at the end. Don't care, I don't want to sing this again.
Weapon of Choice - Don't remember much about this one, except I got a few yellows at the end that don't look like they should have been. ;/
Band on the Run - Since this one was long, I had to go into practice and get everything down. First try after training = FC. And since it's Paul McCartney, it has to be good.
Hollywood Nights - After watching Wooffus' vid, I went for this one. I had two misses on the 13th phrase, and two on the 43rd, but I got it. I hoarded SP at the end to be ready for the freeform, so I wasted some, but it's an FC.
Assassin - Mostly long holds, so it wasn't tough, but at some points I didn't get the pitch right on. I'll go back for all green flashes later.
Scream Aim Fire - This one's quite fun once you get it down. Got it first try after training. Broken freeforms FTL though.
Too Much, Too Young, Too Fast - The last chorus wasn't too bad. The verses were harder, but not that that means anything.
Re-Education Through Labor - Not much I remember about this one, but it was pretty cool.
Mr. Crowley - Kinda neat, except for having two chokes on "I wanna know what you meant" at the end. And broken freeforms.
Sweet Home Alabama (Live) - In practice, there were a few phrases that were being picky, but I got it first try in a real run. No SP for the fifth FF though, so i'll probably re-do it.
Hot for Teacher - This was my last FC because I wanted to finish with a bang, and this song sure has that factor to it (to me, that's mostly because of the guitar playing). In terms of singing it, it's David Lee Roth, so it has to be awesome. Anyways, this took two tries, one being a restart after a Sloppy on the first "But then my homework was never quite like this". Stupid harmonies. >_>

All of that down, I have to say I honestly didn't think this would happen at first. Thanks everyone who supported me throughout this ^_^

Maybe next i'll look for a cheap Wii version of Metallica or Van Halen and attempt to FGFC that...after I FGFC Band Hero bass first.

April 29, 2010:

First up, the vox FCs.
Shiver - After seeing BrianBAM's vid of this, and spending time in practice with it, I decided I was ready to get back at this one. After a few tries, I made it to the end...only to choke on the last phrase. My throat was hurting after this. And guess what else? I like this band a lot. And I have no idea why people hate them. So sue me if you please.
Love Removal Machine - I don't know what it was, my anticipating a much crazier song, the fact that the phrases are just cool, or the singer's voice, but this song was freaking awesome to play.
Toy Boy - Having gotten down those "You bla-ey-ame me for the day" parts in practice, I decided to do a run. First time making it to the dododededododedes = FC. All my misses came in the verses.
Spiderwebs - Good thing I was able to find a video of this one. So I took the song into practice, and after a bit of time with it, I got the full song FC in ONE TRY. I literally scared myself. o_O

And while I was here, I decided to do some Bass, as well. Here are the notable FCs that came out of it:
Prisoner of Society - Sweet. This didn't take long.
Trapped Under Ice
Hollywood Nights - Why do people have such a hard time with this song?
Mr. Crowley

April 28, 2010:

Stranglehold - I actually got this the same night I got American Woman and Vicarious (after I did that update). Good thing practice mode exists in this game, because this would have been torture without it. I had two chokes after the long break, one on the first "Come on, come on, come on" and one on the THIRD TO LAST PHRASE. Unfortunately, on the FC run, I rushed the last activation because I forgot there were freeforms, causing my SP to miss the first one by a hair and have none for the last one. Whatever.
Kick Out the Jams - I took a lot of time in practice mode to get everything down here. This was a little weird, but thankfully I had no chokes in the last verse. I'd say I lost about 50 minutes to this one.
The Joker - This one, on the other hand, was even worse. I managed to learn the verses in practice, but in real runs it just really got stupid. I counted a total of a whopping EIGHT chokes on the 33rd phrase (the "Woo-hoo" after the break), two on the 38th, and one on the second to last. And to top it all off, I came pretty close to missing the last phrase, and nearly had a heart attack.
Hotel California - Fun song. Got it first try after a bit of time in training.
The Kill - This was a real throat killer at some parts.

Now for today's treasures:
Hail to the Freaks - Don't remember too much about this one, except there was one part in the second chorus that I missed on a few times.
Vinternoll2 - This one was just...weird. Got it after a lot of time in practice, and I knew the freeforms were broken. Didn't use SP in any of them, and I forgot to activate on one phrase near the end, so awful score.
Soul Doubt - That "I gotta know what she's all about" phrase in the middle gave me a bit of a problem. Not to mention I dislike this song, so it's a good thing I got it out of the way. Also, fun fact: When I imported this score, I saw this when the page refreshed with it. So many zeros.
Escuela de Calor - Foreign songs usually tend to be difficult, and this is no exception. Of course, tidus' vid really helped. The first time I made it to that middle which he said was the hard part, I had one miss on the last all singing phrase of it. That section is easy to run out of breath on. Other than that, it's a very cool song musically, too.
One Armed Scissor - The "unknown origins" part took a bit of time to get down, as did the bridge leading into the final chorus. I didn't have any chokes in the latter, but LOTS of stupid misses in the former. But worst of all, I had a choke on the last phrase. That's what I get for not being ready for it

See the bump for summaries of the songs I have left.

April 26, 2010:

Vicarious - Yep, that's right. I had to do whatever I could to ingrain it in my head. I had two chokes on the first "La la la la, la la la lie", one on the phrase before "from a distance", and quite a few others to count. Good think the stuff after the freeforms is the easy part. 440.4k is good enough for me.

Love Me Two Times - This one was an absolute jerk. It got really irritating to learn. I had two chokes on the 36th phrase, one on the second to last, and a few on the first "Yeah, my knees get weak". Not my idea of a fun time.

Ramblin' Man - Didn't take too long, had two misses in the first verse and one in the second. However I made a stupid SP mistake when I had a full bar at the end and forgot to activate on the last phrase, so it all went into the freeform, but whatever.

American Woman - Here, I was actually having a harder time getting to the ending with an FC *cough "Got more important things to do" cough* than the ending itself. In fact, I got the full song FC the first time I made it past the freeform with an FC. So many close calls.

Mountain Song - Not much to say about this one. I'll just say it went well and leave it at that.

No worries if you have to start a thread over - I can understand your reasons perfectly fine.

Well, a FGFC could be possible - for most vocalists, that would be a starting FGFC to make a move on thanks to the leniancy for the engine in general. True, there are some of us out there who FGFC'd Smash Hits first though; but if you're able to 5* the big monsters in even the tougher games in the series (re: your runs on "Superstition" and "Stone Cold Crazy", then you may be able to get GHWT in its entirety as well.

Go for it

Well i've done a lot better on Superstition than I did when I had that vid up. SCC, not so much.

But again, my biggest problem with GHWT is that I don't know a LOT of the songs in this game (case in point: while playing through career, I didn't even 5* Spiderwebs or Hollywood Nights). That's one thing about WT I don't like-no star meter to tell you how you're doing.

Thanks anyway. I'll update later today, because I have to leave for school in a bit.

Nice job with the FCs so far. Wanna race to a FGFC? It could be a good race.

And sorry if I was one cause of the destruction of your old thread. (Which I may haveb been. )

Anyway, awesome job on the new FC's, especially Purple Haze. Feel free to try and sue me, but it can be more annoying than "The Wind Cries Mary". Ya know, short phrases are the bane of my existence.

Keep it up, maybe the FGFC is unlikely, but what about digging some more FC's so we can see what this can end on?

B-Fuzz: Nah, you already have a full game 5*, which gives you an edge. And I can understand why you would think that, but it's not necessarily what you think-it's because of, well, the kind of thing I was talking about when I was thinking of quitting (case in point: people like JOE2210, who I can't stand getting in arguments with, since he would treat me like some god or something). As well as the fact that my OP was horribly disorganized. But don't worry about it, again, my reasons are my own.

tidus: Thanks! Yeah, I remember you saying you found Purple Haze harder than The Wind Cries Mary (which I narrowly pulled out the 5* my first time playing). I'd have to get more knowledge in before going for 5*'s or FCs, though. At least a half game FC will be good, or 3/4. An FGFC is a LONG term goal, but nothing i'm really gonna go out of my way for. Maybe i'll pick up the Wii or PS2 versions of Metallica or Van Halen sometime, too.

Now for another update, mostly consisting of songs from Rock Band 2:
The Middle - Sightread FC.
Go Your Own Way - Two tries. Guess where I missed on the first one? The first fucking phrase. Of course, a first phrase miss is no big deal, right?
Today - Two tries, one was a restart on the second "I wanna turn you on".
La Bamba - Even though i've heard this song 3281576494189507 times, I thought it would be a bit tougher. I sightread FC'd it, with a few close calls.
Lazy Eye - Sightread FC, but pretty bad score. Didn't see all those hypes coming.
Everlong - Of course, this one was my last FC when I FGFC'd Rock Band 2. Here, it was a sightread FC. Not much else to say here.
Obstacle 1
Our Truth - It's so easy to run out of breath on the "Oh-uh-wah-ha-eh-oh-uh" (whatever) parts.
Livin' on a Prayer

Summaries of the songs in the final two venues:
One Way or Another: Pretty easy to pass and 5*, but to FC...ugh. I'll look at it more later.
Shiver: This was a total trainwreck. I fell into the red at least three times, but I passed it, ending with 3* and 70%. Shows how much I really need to learn more about these songs.
Antisocial: Pretty easy 5*, should be able to FC it with practice.
Re-Education: Missed the 5* by a hair.
BYOB: Already FC'd this a long time ago.
L'via L'viaquez: 4.4*? Somewhere around there.
Beat It: Easy 5*, might be able to FC with work. I think I know the right touch to the "Beat it, beat it" phrases, I just need consistency.
One Armed Scissor: Easy choruses = easy 5*. Might be able to go for it.
Toy Boy: Took me three tries to 5*. That funny part in the bridge is funny.
Good God: Got the 5* my first time through the whole song, but not by much (3.111x).
Never Too Late: I have a tech FC of this one, and really want to FC it, but placing it all together won't be easy. Plus, it hurts my throat. I've been practicing this song a lot this week.
Pull Me Under: See BYOB.

Maybe i'll just go for some more easy FCs for the time being. And I guess I shouldn't worry about not being able to 5* songs if I want to try to FC them later (but it's hard to feel confident at such painful moments). Perhaps i'll go back to bass for a little bit and try to familiarize myself with some of the songs.

Just one FC today, but it's by far my best WT Vox FC yet.



Well, last Friday, after completing the Sunna's Chariot venue in career, I decided to grind this song some, to no avail. I woke up the next morning only to find out my HDTV's screen wouldn't display anything. It turned out that the internal lightbulb in my TV had died out, so we had to order an extra. I had to wait until today before we could pick up the lightbulb in the city. After my parents got home today, we looked at the TV, and replaced it, so I was all set. After a bit of thinking, I decided to go into practice mode, choose this song, and make sure I was consistent with every part before tearing into it. First I was troubled with the "You follow on" near the end of the second verse, and a few phrases in the outro part. I managed to find it, so I decided to hone the attack. After around an hour of restarting, due to missing after the hypes, most notably on "Yes I have, yes I have", the phrase before it, and the first one after the "Ah" part, while managing to keep from losing any of my temper whatsoever...



Got around 25k from the freeform, and I can say I managed to have a really good run. 3rd on SH? I'll take it. ^_^

Wow, awesome job! Now you're good to build your own journey for the FGFC.

If you struggle with some songs, I'm game. And there are some GHWT vids as well!

P.S.: That was a good freeforming. But...was your character made to err...compete with mine, in terms of hotness?

Thanks. Yeah, I might actually start going seriously for the FGFC now. I do have a few vids ready to hit up for detail. If only I could find some for OWOA and the foreign songs like Nuvole and Escuala...

And about the characters, I understand why you would think that. But not necessarily. At one point in GH5, I was messing around with the random character creation and it made her, then in WT I found the same pieces. But since you mention it, I guess it'll save your girl the hassle, because...well, you said she's yours, didn't you?

Don't worry about that, just a curiosity.

"Escuela de Calor" and other foreign songs are hard just because the pitches are hard. Don't let the foreign lyrics intimidate you, enounciating them is just an option. "Antisocial", for an example, is piss easy. It only gets hard if you try to sing all of those fast French lyrics.

Anyway, songs we can't find a vid of is always a problem. But you can always take the trouble spots to training anyway. Good luck!

note : tidus is SO RIGHT about the lyrics thing ! You'll have time to learn them later ^^

[chaosfreak07]

(Warning: Large post coming up)

B-Fuzz: "Quality, not quantity" much?

tidus: Yeah, I would figure any song would be hard because of pitches. Thanks anyway.

arvain: Because I felt like remaking it ;D Thanks, and I hope to FGFC eventually.

Now for the update:

Antisocial - Most of my chokes came in the first two phrases of the last chorus. Had 1/2 a bar leftover at the end though. Thanks Wooffus, your vid helped me get this =)
Beat It - Yep. Took me three tries last night. At one point I missed the last phrase before the second freeform. First time making it to the guitar solo with my streak still intact = FC. No chokes on the "Beat it, beat it" phrases in the outro, but I had a few close calls on the spammery. Here's a tip: For those phrases, it helps to try to hit the words a little early. 1/2 a bar at the end here, too, stupid activation mistake, but idc. That means I get this:


Santeria - This one was shaky, especially in the phrases just before the choruses. I also almost missed the last phrase (and I say "missed" instead of "choked" because I didn't see it coming). D: Thanks again Wooffus, your vid helped on this one.
Some Might Say - Those choruses are horribly shaky.
The One I Love
Monsoon
Demolition Man - Tidus is right, this song is overrated. Found a vid of it and took it into practice. Gave me a good idea of how to take it. I did have a choke on the "Don't need it" phrase after the second chorus though.
Freak on a Leash - Uh...on my sightread of this one, I dropped into flashing red pretty quickly. It felt so weird, what the game was trying to ask for in the verses (like Sowing Season, Stacked Actors and Turn the Page). I had a dumb pathing mistake in the part with the talkies. Much like in Santeria, I also almost missed the last phrase because I didn't see it coming. Don't care, never playing this again. I mean, this band isn't too bad, but this chart blows.
Stillborn
Trapped Under Ice - Sightread FC. However, I knew the freeforms were broken, yet I was a fool to activate in one of them anyway.
Prisoner of Society - This was actually my second FC in this game a while back, but I had to play it in career, so I thought, "May as well". I had three chokes on the last "And if you count to three". But i'd say it was a nice tradeoff for a good 111.3k increase.

Since i'm at the halfway mark (1 away, close enough), I thought i'd bring up the songs i'm really worried about, in alphabetical order:
American Woman - As if the ending wasn't bad enough in Rock Band 2...blah
Escuala de Calor - yeah
Good God - 5*'d in career setlist, but i'll have to practice it.
Hollywood Nights - Another song I couldn't even 5* on SR. I suck at it.
L'via L'viaquez - No comment.
Love Me Two Times - See Hollywood Nights.
Misery Business - The hardest phrases for me are the "But I got him where I want him now" parts. I'm close to getting this, but I suppose that's not saying much.
Nuvole E Lenzuola - See Escuala de Calor.
One Way or Another - meh
Parabola - I'll have to learn this one before going for it.
Schism - See Parabola. This one should be the easiest of the Tool songs though.
Shiver - I think what I said earlier says it all.
Stranglehold - Dear god, this one I am not looking forward to.
The Wind Cries Mary - Barely 5*'d this first time in setlist, but i've since took it into practice. This will probably be the next really tough one that I attack.
Toy Boy - I'm actually having more difficulties with those "You bla-ey-ame me for the day" phrases than the dododededododede part.
Vicarious - See Stranglehold.

If I luck out on all of those, then I will force myself to sit through and learn the remaining songs, which isn't fun. Yuck.

(Wow, that was a big post.)

But if you think that's insane, how about...this?

Generally put, that song can be a major pain. I didn't have SP for the third or last freeform, but I can't be expected to do amazing on it. Got the FC first time after making it past the third freeform with an FC going.
