Hi, I don't know how all this works, so I'm just trying my to best to post this in the right place. In fact, I think I'll go ahead and use the template provided :)



Basically, this song is a song that's going to be sung by Warhammer Orks. They are mischievous, rough and tough, yet humorous hooligans. They have a sort of an slum distric English (cockney? I'm not sure) accent and an extremely obnoxious attitude going on. It would obviously help you if you could watch a few videos to get some idea of how that would sound like. They have extremely deep, raspy voices, and there is almost always a hint of happiness or mischievous humor in what they say. Here is some ork related stuff to watch to understand the kind of voice we are looking for:

Here is a cutscene from a game that should help understand the kind of voice the singer should produce - it is an ork warboss talking to his minions -

Anyhow, I don't know anyone musical at all, so if you could somehow fit in the background music from original song, that would be cool. If not, then once I have the vocals, I'll think of something, so hopefully they're timed more or less to the song. Basically this is a redub of "these boots are made for walkin" by nancy sinatra (http://youtu.be/SbyAZQ45uww)



Here are the song lyrics:

Yew keep sayin' you got somethin' fo me,
somethin' ya call war, but confess,
You been a messin where ya shouldn'ta been a messin,
and now da orks are gettin all yer best

Deze orkz are made for stomping
And dat's just wot dey'll do
One of deze days dese orks
Are gonna stomp all over you

yeeh...

You keep lying when you ought ta be truthin'
And you keep losing when you ought ta not bet
You keep samin' when you oughta ta be a changin'
Now wot iz right iz right but you ain't been right yet

Deze orkz are made for stomping
And dat's just wot dey'll do
One of deze days dese orks
Are gonna stomp all over you

You keep playin where you shouldn't be playin
And you keep thinkin dat you'll neva get burned - HA!
I jest found me a brand new box of rokkits - yeeeh
And wot dey do you ain't had da time to learn

Deze orkz are made for stomping
And dat's just wot dey'll do
One of deze days dese orks
Are gonna stomp all over you

Are ya ready orkz?!

START STOMPING!

Perhaps you could give it a try anyhow even with the bad microphone? Or perhaps you could borrow a microphone from someone you know? Or just check out local pawnshops, they have tons of cheap stuff. Maybe even someone on forums will send you their old one for cheap, if you ask around? Sorry, just some quick ideas - the word cannot isn't in my vocabulary :)
