(upbeat pop music)
- You already know what it is.
Whoo, all right Grace, we're here.
Sharers let's do this.
We've gotta go record this, you ready Grace?
- Whoo oh yeah, I am ready.
- By the way, check out my new lime-green backpack.
I am so excited for it, bringing it into the studio.
I think it's somewhere over here, let's go this way.
- [Grace] All righty, let's go.
- We're about to record the best song ever,
the best summer song you're ever going to hear.
- I love the beat, it's already stuck in my head
which you know is a good song if it gets stuck in your head.
- Let's go inside behind these secret doors.
Oh it's locked.
This is how you know it's top secret,
you've got to push the button and they unlock if for you.
(buzzing)
Ooh it's top secret, hey what's going on?
- Ooh, oh yeah.
Coming back here to give you a little tour of everything.
Some awesome, famous artists recorded in this studio
such as the Foo Fighters.
There's a bunch of artwork on the studio,
so it's super classic.
I'm excited to try the studio out.
I've never been to this one before.
Let's go in here, this is going to be the main control
center room.
This is awesome.
So check this out, this is the control center board.
This is where you mix and master, what is this?
- We're tracking through this.
We're gonna be mixing through this, doing everything.
- Sweet, and then I'll be in there?
- You will be in there in front of that big microphone.
We've been testing some mics for you.
We've got two that we think are going to work
particularly well.
- Okay very cool, this is awesome.
Then they can slide these knobs up and down,
twist these knobs like crazy.
This is what I'm talking about and this is gonna be wild.
Let's go check out the room with all the microphones,
this way.
Wow, check out this room.
This is the microphone room, but it's got a bunch
of crazy stuff in here.
It's got a surfboard up there.
- [Grace] Whoa, a fish.
- A giant fish on the wall.
Oh yeah and then check this out.
Here's all the microphones.
Am I singing to all of these?
- Yes, basically you'll be sitting there
and you're just gonna sing into all of them.
I'll see which one fits your voice the best.
- Sharers, this is cool.
This red microphone right here is the same type
of microphone Taylor Swift used.
- [Grace] On all her songs, too.
- That's so awesome, so I've got one, two, three,
four, five, six, seven microphones that they're going
to figure out which microphone my voice sounds best in.
So I'll just sing.
♪ Share the love ♪
And we'll figure it out.
And it goes even bigger, check this place out back here.
- Wait, it looks like a mini studio because look
how low down this microphone is.
It's like (singing).
- This is true, live recording.
You have your drums here, guitars here.
So pick up if you were playing in a real band and stuff.
This is really cool.
And now we're ready to record.
So they took away a couple of the mics.
We're left with two.
Now the question is which microphone am I going
to sound better on?
We have the Taylor Swift microphone, the red one.
And we have this black one which is the microphone
that the Beatles used.
We're going to sing a little bit into both microphones.
They're in the studio right there.
They're going to take a listen and whichever microphone
my voice sounds better on is the one we're going
to end up using.
Comment down below which microphone
you think I'm going to use,
whether it's the Taylor Swift one or the Beatles one.
I'm going to vote #TaylorSwift because I think
that's pretty cool.
Let's test it out real quick.
♪ Wake up, it's a brand new day ♪
♪ The sun is shining, looks like summer's here to stay ♪
Okay we just tested it, now let's go to the control room
and they're going to decide which microphone
I sound better on.
I'm hoping it's the Taylor Swift one, but we'll see.
Let's find out.
All right, which one is it going to be?
Which microphone?
- [Sound Tech] Are you ready?
- I'm ready, which one is it?
- [Sound Tech] Taylor Swift mic.
- It is? Yes, Taylor Swift microphone, the red one.
All right, that's the one I wanted the whole time.
- [Sound Tech] It's destiny, you're about to become
a pop star.
- Sweet, it is decided.
- Can you go straight for the mic and through way.
- All right, we're going to use the Taylor Swift microphone.
Let's get it set up, let's do this.
Now that we got everything set up and we're using
the Taylor Swift mic only, now we gotta go back in
and actually get the song recorded.
So let's do a little mic check real quick.
Mic check one, two, one, two.
Do I sound like Taylor Swift?
- [Male] Yes.
- Perfect, let's do a little Taylor Swift check.
♪ Ain't nobody ever find another like me ♪
♪ Ooh ooh ooh ooh ♪
That sounds good, Sharers?
Oh we've gotta add one more thing.
We've got to add the pop filter.
This helps with, what does I help with exactly?
- It just helps so all the p, and the t's don't
peak to the level.
It just adds a bit of filter.
- So all the jump and dive on the slip and slide.
So that way it sounds a lot better.
Okay cool, so we've got the pop filter set up.
Sounds even better now.
Now we're going to go and record the song.
Let's do this.
And of course, before we sing we've gotta do
a little workout, so let's do some jumping jacks.
Gotta do this.
- [Grace] Arms higher.
- Higher, working hard.
- [Male] Put your hands together.
- I'm gonna be out of breath, I'm not gonna be able to sing.
And now we've gotta warm up the vocals, here we go.
(singing)
- Stephen, act like you're recording the music video
and everyone's around you.
You're just screaming, you're moving, you're hype.
Just move, loosen up your body.
♪ Jump in, jump in ♪
- Like you can be over excited, and if it's too much
we can record it again, versus being not excited enough.
- All right, I got this.
Hold on, let me just jump a little.
Whoo, Sharers we gotta get more energy for this song.
It's called Jump In, for a reason.
All right, jump in, jump in, oh yeah.
