The GBATemp National Anthem

[Recorderdude]

This Song is flawed I shall improve it in the future.

Spoiler

Anyways, here's the GBATemp national Anthem! It's not perfect, and there might be a few quirks to it, but overall I feel it turned out great! I apologize for not covering everyone, but I figure I did a lot of Tempers justice - the thing is over Six minutes already!

LYRICS:

Oh, GBATemp, we all sing of thee
The land where emulation and opinions can run free
So let us all praise all of our fellow men
Who keep us all returning to the website once again....

There is p1ngpong, the head of all the members
An intelligent and witty 'temping man
He speaks the words of wisdom we remember
And even has a thread just for his fans

Oh, GBATemp, we all sing of thee
The land where emulation and opinions can run free
So let us all praise all of our fellow men
Who keep us all returning to the website once again....

Vulpes Abnocto is a mod who tends to
visit whenever he is feeling torn
He'll ask the forum; trolls just say "I troll you"
He smiles and happily raises their warn

Oh, GBATemp, we all sing of thee
The land where emulation and opinions can run free
So let us all praise all of our fellow men
Who keep us all returning to the website once again....

Raulpica is a valued moderator
Does his job well and does it with a smile
Surely there is no Mister Saturn greater
At keeping the peace, at least for a while

Oh, GBATemp, we all sing of thee
The land where emulation and opinions can run free
So let us all praise all of our fellow men
Who keep us all returning to the website once again....

The Rydian is often seen a-humping
Everything in the world, though "STOP!" they beg
Though in the EOF he is he is jumping
On The urge to go hump ol' p1ngy's leg

Oh, GBATemp, we all sing of thee
The land where emulation and opinions can run free
So let us all praise all of our fellow men
Who keep us all returning to the website once again....

The catboy is a lighthearted young temper
The official catboy of the whole site
Though often others seem to not remember
How much he helps the EOF shine bright

Oh, GBATemp, we all sing of thee
The land where emulation and opinions can run free
So let us all praise all of our fellow men
Who keep us all returning to the website once again....

Zorua is a valued temper also
Whose name is taken from a pokeman
He is well-known in the EOF, though
He helps others with consoles when he can

Oh, GBATemp, we all sing of thee
The land where emulation and opinions can run free
So let us all praise all of our fellow men
Who keep us all returning to the website once again...

The Ikki is a happy panda, you know
Who probly descends from china, see?
Though all his talk of hapiness and rainbows
Makes us think he's from Katamari Damacy

Oh, GBATemp, we all sing of thee
The land where emulation and opinions can run free
So let us all praise all of our fellow men
Who keep us all returning to the website once again...

The troll, AlanJohn is a quite well-known one
He trolls with joy and in it takes great pride
He often thinks in trolling he's surely won...
Till the mods slap some warns on his backside.

Oh, GBATemp, we all sing of thee
The land where emulation and opinions can run free
So let us all praise all of our fellow men
Who keep us all returning to the website once again....

The Sausage-Headed man is a troll also
But often repeats the things he has said
He answers most posts with a simple "no"
Or By excaiming "I am sausage head"!

Oh, GBATemp, we all sing of thee
The land where emulation and opinions can run free
So let us all praise all of our fellow men
Who keep us all returning to the website once again....

SHOW IT YOUR MONEY! Ooooh, Aeouuuuaeee. Hadeuyomayedejanoo. Hadoonyaaaanyaa.

 

[ThatDudeWithTheFood]

The lyrics are good now I'm going tolisten to the actual song.

Spoiler

Charles Manson inclusion is nice touch

 

[s4mid4re]

nice ending

 

[chyyran]

Lol, Costello was not mentioned at all. I think you should add that in, if you know what I'm sayin'

 

[Slyakin]

No Costello? CONSPIRACY!

Loved it!

 

[Recorderdude]

Lol, Costello was not mentioned at all. I think you should add that in, if you know what I'm sayin'

Costy was not mentioned in the original topic and I'd have to record the entire thing over again. I added Raul a long time ago but just got to recording now.

Meh, it's still pretty good.

 

[Sterling]

Sweet. You did a stellar job. A little feed back though, repeating the same verse every other verse is kinda tedious. If you had done it every third verse, or a differently worded, or emotional quest, it would be infinitely greater.

 

[Recorderdude]

Yeah, I suppose. I may actually get to re-recording it with costy (and possibly others?) and less of the chorus eventually, that would balance it out a bit - all depends on how soon dad leaves me home alone again as he doesn't want me to record gaming or gaming-related stuff too often, let alone twice for one song.

Honestly, if you need some input for who to write about, it would definitely be way to long to sing. This has given me an idea for a recoded narrative. Keep it so the mods and other prominent helpful members are mentioned, and you'll have a interstellar recording of epic proportions.

 

[Recorderdude]

Yeah, I figure I could do that. I may butt out the troll verses so I can add more for good people.

(Oh, and so you know, originally Rydian's verse contained lines about helping people with PSPs, but he requested there be more about humping in it

)

Should have said he humped their PSPs until they worked again. Dirty minds need not quote and reply to this.

 

[Rydian]

XD

Rye-dee-en.

But yar, that's a piece of work.

 

[KingdomBlade]

ADD FAST, AW, GUILD AND COSTY! (and me *ahem* JK)

Seems like the song is focused on EoF tempers almost exclusively.

 

[Sop]

ADD ME +1+1+1

-Sop

 

[CannonFoddr]

Dam - didn't make it into this one either

 

[Shockwind]

It's good, but...

Spoiler

Where's me?

 

[Frederica Bernkastel]

You sorta ruined it by only choosing certain members, and not even important ones at that. (except VA and raul).


EDIT: And some people seem to be upset you didn't mention them, perhaps in future you should focus more on the site itself, then cram in as many users as possible? (i.e. not one verse per person)

 

[Recorderdude]

emo rant

 

[KingdomBlade]

yeah, you know what? This was a really bad idea.

A REALLY bad Idea.

I've created a monster that I'll constantly have to add more to to appease some and will forevermore.

It's over for now.

I'm disgusted with the current version and I'm near considering kicking it off the face of the internet.

I SUCK.

I FAIL.

GOODBYE.

The point is, you made the song have exclusively trolls and EoF tempers except for VA and rauplica.

There's virtually none of the important staff (and non staff) members in there. Don't add any of us useless idiots if you don't want to, but add the truly important people. Like Costy, or FAST, or AW, or Antilogy, or tj_cool, or Trolley, or the creator of the site, KiVan.

You can make a new one instead of saying you suck, since the song is really nice, the content is pretty imbalanced.
