So you fancy yourself a singer, eh ... alone, in your car, with the windows up, when no one's looking. Well, now you can test your pipes against Martina McBride and Elvis Presley in private, and if you like what you hear, you can share them with your friends via email.
As a promotion for "Elvis Presley Christmas Duets" album, Sony BMG Music Entertainment has created a Web site that allows you to record "Blue Christmas" as a duet with Presley, singing McBride's part from the album.
The site, www.singwiththeking.com, provides a phone number and access code so you can belt out your lines over the phone. If you're pleased with the recording, you can send it in a Christmas ecard.
Or, if you discover you sound more like Alvin and the Chipmunks than Presley and McBride, you can send the album version of the song instead.
The whole thing is free.
"Someone in our digital area came up with the concept," said JJ Rosen, executive vice president of Sony BMG Music Entertainment's Commercial Music Group. "It fits the duets concept of the album so well."
Because the campaign leans heavily on technology, Rosen said it brings Presley and his music to a younger generation. "We're always trying to keep the Elvis brand alive."
The site launched Dec. 5 and has drawn 30,000 people from nine countries. It's scheduled to end sometime in January.
The promotion has been successful enough that Sony plans a similar one for Mariah Carey's upcoming release "The Ballads" for Valentine's Day.

Greetings Jon,
In sharing here is a little story about Martina McBride's Loves The Only
House CMT Video, I was truly honored when early in the morning I received a
call by Martina McBrides Manager and the video Director. They asked that I
meet with them in Los Angeles. Martina was a great fan of my work and asked if
I would like to creatively contribute to the exclusive release of her new
social conscious song. After review of the song and lyrics, I responded by
saying yes. After several production meetings with the Director Thom Oliphant
approved of my proposed concepts in collaboration.
We were shooting in the hot summer in the Barrio of the Valley. The principle
actors had completed their scenes and wrapped however the Mural was large in
scale over two stories. The mural was taking longer then expected so I had to
stay behind finishing the mural by myself. Evening approached and I was still
painting in the dark alley on a ladder. Just then a LAPD squad car droved up
the dark alley and shined his searchlight on me. They drew their guns and asked
that I come down slowly off the ladder with my hands in the air. When I stepped
off the ladder I was restrained and put in handcuffs and read my Miranda
rights. I then responded that I was asked by a Music Company RCA and a
Directorial House The Collective out of Nashville Tennessee to create a
spray-paint mural for an exclusive Martina McBride video release.
The LAPD officers laughed and didnât believe my so-called story as there was
no production personnel anywhere in sight. My response was that the creation of
the mural took longer then its shoot bringing me into the wee hours of the
morning.
All good things work themselves out and eventually I was allowed one call to
contact the Producer who provided my permit and release. I finally completed
the mural by the morning light. So in sharing the true street justice premiere
