finally after 25 minutes of arranging who is singing which part and running through the song a few times we finally organized it and i think we're ready. daniel and corbyn went to go get a keyboard and a guitar while zach and jack went to go get microphones and the microphone stands as for jonah he was going to get a sound system and a speaker. i was making last minute adjustments to my camera.

few minutes later everyone came back with their items. zach and jack handed microphones out to everyone and placed a microphone stand in front of mine and daniels stool. he connected them to the speaker/sound system. daniel set the keyboard in front of mine and zach's stool then he set his guitar on his stool.

the boys settle down on the stools doing a little sound check just to see if everything works. the order from left to right is jack, jonah, zach, me, corbyn, and daniel. once everything is settled i turn on the camera and i go back to my stool and i sit down to start my intro.

"ciao è lana marino e bentornato al mio canale. if you guys are new and you don't know what that means it means hi it's lana marino and welcome back to my channel." 

when i usually do my intro i use big arm motions and i didn't want to do that today because you know i got 5 boys around me and a lot of equipment so i'm not trying to knock them all down like pins at a bowling alley.

"today i am doing a cover of the song stay by rihanna featuring mikky ekko and we have very special guests today the why don't we boys!"

i put my hands under zach and corbyns chin.

they all wave.

"so boys say your name and we'll start on the left side which our right side."

"i'm jack." he does a little grin and waves.

"i'm jonah." he smiles.

"i'm zach." after he says his name he does his legendary look which includes turning his head so his good side shows the camera.

"i'm lana obviously i mean you're watching my video!" the boys chuckle and we all look at corbyn.

"i'm corbyn." he smiles and waves.

"and i'm daniel." he does a cute little wave.

"now that the boys are introduced we will be singing a cover of stay by rihanna featuring mikky ekko."

daniel starts strumming his guitar for a few seconds before i start playing the keyboard.
we play our instruments to the tune of the song for 4 eight counts until we start singing but playing at the same time.
(don't listen to the people singing in the video just the instrumental + imagine them singing this)

lana & daniel:
all along it was a fever
a cold-sweat, hot-headed believer

corbyn & jack:
i threw my hands in the air, said show me something
he said if you dare come a little closer

zach:
'round and around and around and around we go

jonah:
oh now, tell me now, tell me now, tell me now you know...

lana:
not really sure how to feel about it
something in the way you move
makes me feel like i can't live without you
yeah it takes me all the way
and i want you to stay

wdw boys:
it's not much of a life you're living
it's not just something you take, it's given
'round and around and around and around we go
oh now, tell me now, tell me now, tell me now you know
