Thanks! I think I messed up on a few songs (had trouble remembering lyrics for all three songs), but I just went with the flow. I tried to sing two songs in my vocal range (It's Gonna Rain, and Neiro), and a song that I just like to sing that's a bit out of my range (Kiss and Cry). The judges stressed that you're being a performer on stage, and not just a singer. So just go out there and have fun with the songs, and keep the audience in engaged.

The way its been done in the past is first round you have to pick a song from an anime, second round is from a J-Pop/rock artist/group, 3rd round is a song of your choosing from either of those categories, meaning you can do a song from a J-pop/rock group, or a song from an anime. What I'd like to try doing this year is throw in something a bit different, at least for the 3rd round. If its plausible, since I dont know how well people would know stuff from this category, I'd like to include "songs from a video game" as an option for the 3rd round as well as either a song from an anime or J-pop/

I'm practicing to enter the contest, but I'm kinda worried that the audience might get shocked to see a tall, black guy singing J-ROCK. D: Plus do you have to sound like a professional to sing in the contest ? D:
