2 - Loop the section or entire song with a few extra seconds at the end, and record arm your mic pair.
3 - Start recording. For each loop, stand at a different spot on the floor and sing one of the parts. Continue for however many parts you want to capture.
4 - When finished, explode the takes into separate tracks. No need to do any panning; moving around the room while recording did it all for you. Put all these inside a folder track and put a mid-side decoder plug in the folder effects.
Quick & clean...
