Song is by Machine Gun Kelly & blackbear.

A DLC song I knew well enough to wanna try this out with. The gameplay in this video is of an FC run of the harmonies chart done solely by myself with two mics. Obviously though nailing all phrases by yourself for most songs is impossible, but getting an FC just means you got "Awesome" rating for at least one part in each phrase.

The fun part of this video is that I recorded myself singing each individual part in practice mode and put it all together. Also tried to mix it to the best of my ability for volume and even adding some radio static filter for certain parts to match the original song. Each run you hear was me getting an FC (though there are a couple sections that are swapped out for other parts of my runs, in the interest of making this sound presentable).

Lead is obviously pretty straightforward, but the tricky part comes in the second half of Blackbear's verse where it becomes the harmony. Harmony 1 is also relatively straightforward, but I kept having to restart in the final chorus for the split pitch at around 2:02. That's surprisingly hard to get right when it's out of context like that. I kinda cheated and harmonized with the way lead sings "Love" there. Harmony 2 is mostly an octave lower than the main melody, which is decidedly out of my range. But surprisingly it wasn't that difficult to FC this singing there. Lenient vocal engine ftw. Overall, not that hard. And harmonies is definitely the preferred way to play because on solo, some of the blackbear parts are jammed in pretty tightly with the MGK parts. Please let me breathe HMX.
