You could do it just one time to ALL 1.9 million people! Isn't that a lot less stress?  ;) :D

How about post it online on Youtube, and all 1.9 million can see it while you sing? Of course it'll have to be live though.  ???

Too much work to be done there.

It's a lot better than singing it 1.9 million times!  ;D

You could hire someone who can sing if you can't. And then you could lip-synch to it!
