Satirical Rock Vocal Recording

I have a finished karaoke backing track of “The Final Shakeout,” of Europe’s classic anthem. I’ll send you the full lyric sheet; every word needs to be sung close enough to the original song but so it blends well as a parody, sticking closely to the original melody and high-energy feel.

What I need from you is a crisp, studio-quality rock vocal performance—think arena-ready power, confident belts, and the attitude that made the original so iconic. Please record on a pro mic chain in 24-bit/44.1 kHz (or higher), keep all takes clean and free of background noise, and give me both a fully-comped, lightly processed lead track plus the raw stem. Harmony or ad-lib options are welcome if they enhance the chorus, but keep the main melody front and center.

Here are the lyrics:

The Final Shakeout
We’re leaving bears behind,
Doubters yell “to zero!”
FUD is flying high,
Weak hands start to fold.
It’s the final shakeout,
Shakeout’s here right now,
Final shakeout,
Paper hands get out.
Masters of the blockchain,
Revolution’s near,
New highs are calling,
After the final shakeout.

Chorus: it's the final shakeout…
The final shakeout


Deliverables

• One mixed vocal mp3that drops straight onto my instrumental (same bar count, no offset)
• A dry, unprocessed stem for any future remixing
• Brief note on the gear and signal chain you used

I’ll handle the final mastering, so just focus on nailing that classic rock delivery with polished studio clarity. Looking forward to hearing your take!
