RR now open...geo yells "door open door open" and all go inside.

george has sunglasses on?

3:35 PM
HG in Kitchen and LR...
George asks, "What's our name? The Big Brother Five if they ask us?" Jamie says, "Oh George, what's in a name."
HG gathering outside Red Room door. Jamie, pacing, whispers in fake french, "Ooo Camera Man."

Josh stretches. Pug talk while they wait to get in to record their song. Jamie, "she's so cute." Curtis, "our good little pug." etc.

Door opens. Curtis says, "Oh, here we go." George yells, "Door open!" All HG enter RR except Curtis who is getting something off table. Door slams shut. Curtis yelps, "Ahh!" and quickly rushes into RR.

Camera stays on empty LR

all hg now in rr, and i guess we're left to our imaginations about what's taking place. a safe guess would be that various members of that new singing sensation, the bb 5, are butchering...


OOOOOH

HG jamming loudly in RR, wearing headphones. I came when George was singing his verse. George messes up his line.. "but we will all be together, BEFORE the final show." (it was supposed to be AFTER the final show.) They all start laughing and George says, "It was only one word." They continue singing the rest of the song.

AOL's 4-camera fed is showing all RR! We are treated to the 5 "singers" recording the BB song. I hope they have electronics to fix this, it's BAD! Even josh and Curtis sound off-key/hoarse.
they finish song, sorry can't ty0e fast enough to give your the words. BB gives instructions, they are going to do it again. I need ear muffs...

someone belches really loud. It was George.

Curtis is wondering where they left the Pug. (outside the RR door)

BB is now telling where the HGs should stand when they sing.

Eddie was complaining that Geo's "guitar" is in his groin

Take 2!

Curtis sounds good.

Josh sounds ok.

Chorus - George is WAYYYY too loud.

Jamie sounds horrible!

Chorus - Curtis is the loudest

Eddie should not sing that high.

George not good!

George now doing broom guitar solo.

Chorus - George too loud again.

Song ends.

George says he read the wrong lines.

Eddie said he f'ed it up.

They are getting ready for take 3.

They laughed at George's part because he sang the word "before" instead "after" for his lines. "We'll all be together BEFORE the last show"

Eddie says "I really love this broom in my groin. Looks like George is playing ME!"

They all threateningly say "Eddie.." when he says a swear word.

Geo & Jamie didn't know they had to turn up their individual headphones to hear the music.

Getting ready for the real deal...

BB asking them to adjust where they are standing for best camera view. Told them to be sure to face the mic when it's their turn.

George is using the broom as a guitar prop. It's got hot pink on the straw part.

Hee Hee. Curtis has his fingers on one side of the headphone, just like a pro.


Jamie's holding the lyric sheet.

AH! Eddie just messed up HIS lines when reciting the HGs names. Ended it rhyming with Brit - "I don't know this Sh*t!" (he's being a pretty good sport, considering how lame this is)

Eddie says in funny voice when they are done "Eddie f*ucked that ALL up, and that was funny too"

Doing the song again! George announces the song as "Into Our Lives, we're the Big Brother 5, take 3"

As a side note, having experienced both the regular and broadband feed, be careful about criticizing the singing if you are on the slow feed. It really is different on the fast feed.

Take 3 was actually pretty good. Now they are doing a little harmonizing after.

BB is now wanting each to do their own part. So they can mix it in later, I guess.

BB announces they got it with that take. Also adds the Partridge Family has nothing on them.

Now each HG is going to sing thier parts individually.

Correction, they are doing the chorus individually, not their parts.

They are in the RR singing. Jamie finishes her verse with a huge pagent smile. George has his sunglasses on most likely so he can read the lyrics. (ed - Looks he's trying to look like a rock star with the shades and green hair.) Song is over all are laughing. Zoom to mike hanging above the HG's. BB asks them to wait one moment.

BB asks them to sing it again. Name of the song is "Into Our Lives." Camera continually focusing on Jamie. Song ends and George says "Hey not bad!"

Curtis is asked to sing the chorus solo. Josh follows singing the chorus solo as well. (ed- I am having flashbacks of all the 70's shows where the cast decides to form a rock group.) Now it's Jamies turn and then George's to sing the chorus. Eddie takes his turn at the chorus. The others tell him he sounded good.

They're going to take turns singing the chorus solo again. (I'm posting will be back later.)

BB wants the HG to keep change positions a little. They have Curtis step back and Jamie move closer to George. They want Eddie to move closer to George too. HG laugh a little.

BB tells them they will take it now, on their mark... Music starts, Curtis goes into his verse. Josh sings. All sing chorus. Jamie attempts singing. They all belt out the second chorus. Eddie tries his hardest but can't resist throwing in a wise crack. George the rock star gets encouragement from Jamie, "go George."

They all join in for final chorus. Song ends of the infamous line, "Private eyes are watching, see what they see."

After a few moments Eddie says, "Yah, we f*cked that one up too." George says they didn't do bad, "Good job, Eddie." Eddie says he got Karen mixed up so he decide he might as well mess with it. He insists it was all f*cked up."

They chat as they wait. George says, "This has gotta be hard for the sound guys."

BB reminds them to anounce the name of the song before they begin. BB tells them to take it again on their mark.

George gives the title, "Into Our Lives." Eddie jokes, don't forget what take it is, Take three.

Music begins and Curtis starts out again. This time they all get their words right.

Music ends. George says "Hey not bad!" Josh or Eddie? says, "It's amazing what technology can do."

BB now wants them to sing the different choruses individually. Jamie says it's because they can't hear them all seperately when they sing together.

They are supposed to sing the chorus individually, saying their name and "Chorus One" first. Curtis goes first, then Josh, then Jamie, who all says their name and then "Chorus One."

Next is George's turn. He starts with, "This is George, Chorus one, Take One." Eddie's goes next and says, "This is Eddie, Chorus One and the first and only Take." After he finishes Jamie gushes, "Oh Eddie, you have a good voice." Curtis teases, "Choirboy!."

BB tells them to do Chorus Two now.

Eddie has a really sweet voice! It's hard to believe that such profanity comes from that mouth!

all are recording individual versions of each chorus (in other words, hg, don't be surprised if you don't hear your own special voice in the final version of the choruses)

jamie gets better and better as she gets more confident. george, however, gets worse and more brazenly off-key.

"take five" as they all go to get drinks and let their vocal chords take a much-needed break.

[ok, i'm really out this time]

The camera just zoomed in on George's heart tattoo with his family's names and you can see just where he stopped shaving the top back part of his bicep.

Jamie compliments Eddie on the nice singing voice he's been hiding.

BB told them "that sounded fantastic" and Curtis snickers.

Eddie is the only one that stays in the RR, everyone else went to get a drink. He's sitting on the floor whispering to himself. Oh, he already HAS a drink.

(What! No cursing? At least throw me a "SLACKER", Eddie!)

He's inspecting the mic. Just tapped it. Now he's leaving the RR too.

Jamie tells Geor she liked his solo part with the guitar. He tells her "it's really been something in here"

He "really kinda likes them news things" (headline challenge) He observes that BB has been nicer to them, as far as pittin' them against each other

Jamie, pretending to be a professional, exclaims "Union break is over" when BB calls them back to RR for verse 2.

This time BB wants them to lipsync chorus 2.

cxn: one HGs sings chorus 2 and the others lipsync

BB now wants them to lip-sync to their words now. Eddie says, "F*ck! how cheesy is that!" George says, "Aw Eddie don't swear anymore." Eddie mumbles quietly, "F*uuck."

They begin with Curtis saying his name and starting the lip sync. George is really funny doing exaggerated mouth and facial expression while doing the group's chorus lip-syn.

Each person does their individual lip sync and they continue to all do the silent fake singing to the chorus they previously recorded which is being pumped over the speakers.

BB tells George to put his glasses back on (which he left out in the kitchen) so he goes and fetches them. He gets back in the RR, puts the glasses on and then BB tells him he needs the guitar too. So he has to go BACK outside again to retrieve it.

When he leaves the first time Eddie quips "Hello, welcome to the lame club"

Curtis says "I've been there for a while"

BB "Moving on the the third chorus"
Jamie has to explain to George what their doing

Same deal as last time - one sings & others lipsync
