Since this may very well be my last day of freedom (and since I finally got the backing track I've been after for ages) I decided to throw caution to the wind, and do one more tribute song.

Can The Dev Team Hear Us

Can you hear the players call
Got this bug and it ain't small
Because I die when I fall
Can the dev team hear us?

In the game, we cannot play
Without shots going astray
Why'd the Issues get delayed
Can the dev team hear us?

(Chorus
Come sing about bugs
That give us a green sky
Come sing about bugs
We find with ATI
Come sing about bugs
Time to speak to a guy
Can the Dev team hear us?

LAG!
We need to ping Union
NERF!
We've got confusion
CLIPPING!
It's like an illusion
Can the Dev Team hear us?

INF!
I'm not getting enough
COSTUMES!
I want to strut my stuff
LEVELS!
I should be really tough
Can the Dev Team hear us

Chorus

Issue Seven's on its' way
And I really want to play
But the bugs will get their say
Can the Dev Team hear us?

Now I really want to see
A finished Recluse's Victory
But the bugs are hassling me
Can the Dev Team hear us?

(instrumental)

Grant us hope that we will find
A bit of in-game piece of mind
Even one bug would be fine
Can the Dev Team hear us?

(Chorus)

Just a quick note - I was unhappy with the first version, so clicking on the link now will have a newer version, with a few bits cleaned up, some added, etc - it generally sounds better.

The sad thing is, with the exception of the actual words, it's a pretty authentic re-write of the excellent "We Beseech Thee", from Godspell (seriously, download it....by which I mean, buy the CD today. I don't condone downloading music at all). The 'instrumental' section that I recorded is actually missing some bits from the original song, purely because I got amazingly bored recording that section over and over - getting the timing to line up exactly on a multi-track section is irritating in the extreme, and every track I add on increases the background hiss. As a point of interest, I got this backing track after a lot of begging from the managing director of my theatre company (I convinced him I needed it as the main singer and creative director) because he has a bee in his bonnet about producing Godspell as a two man show - with myself and him as the two men. This is frightening in two different ways: one, he's a terrible singer (nice guy, and a hell of a poker player, but to say he's weak on the creative side of things is like saying I'm not too good at picking AT's/powers) and two, Godspell needs at least 14 people, with a good mix of men and women.

I'll be posting up the original song after I get back from work, if anyone's interested. OH! And be sure to tune in to Coin's spot tonight on Evo at 10. No real reason.

loved it. I tried doing an adaptation of here's to you by rascal flats as a tribute to my school for leavers day. complete failure. I might do it for when I eventually leave CoX. but that's not for ages

good job, I would love to hear another or a music video of this one. it's pretty good

You're no lemon demon but I salute you for having enought guts to sing on the web.
In other news: my name is Zalb the hobo, I've had that song from ask a ben 11 stuck in my head all day, prepare to die.
