The Ultimate 90s Gaming Anthem
Featured on Eiffel 65's multi-platinum album Europop, "My Console" is a high-energy tribute to the PlayStation era. While "Blue (Da Ba Dee)" took the world by storm, this track became a cult favorite among gamers for listing iconic titles like Tekken 3, Metal Gear Solid, and Resident Evil.
To sing this well, you don't need an expansive vocal range. Instead, you need incredible rhythmic precision and clear diction. The delivery sits somewhere between rapping and chanting, heavily stylized with the electronic production of the late 90s.
Phase 1: The Spelling Chant (0:15 - 0:45)
The song kicks off by spelling out "P.L.A.Y.S.T.A.T.I.O.N." This isn't sung melodically; it is rhythmic chanting.
The Trap: Rushing ahead of the beat. The synthesizer plays a strict 4/4 rhythm. You must place each letter squarely on the grid. Keep your tone flat and robotic to match the "AI" persona of the band's aesthetic.
Phase 2: The Game Roll Call (Verse)
This is the core difficulty of the song. You are listing titles: "Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil, Gran Turismo, Omega Boost..."
- Breath Control: There are few pauses between titles. Take quick "sip" breaths rather than deep inhales.
- Tone: Jeffrey Jey uses a bright, slightly nasal placement (typical of Eurodance) which helps the voice cut through the heavy bass and synths.
- Pitch: While mostly spoken, there is a fundamental pitch centered around D3/E3. Do not let your voice drop into a "fry"; keep it energized.
Phase 3: The Melodic Chorus
The line "We're gonna play the game, the PlayStation all day" introduces the melody. It’s a simple, catchy hook that contrasts with the verses.
Switch from your staccato chanting voice to a smoother legato singing style here. Ensure you hit the higher notes of the melody clearly without sliding up to them.
