From the people who brought you: "How to be pro at Guns of Icarus," "Occasionally Effective," "Why I fly," and General Silliness. Bring to you the Guns of Icarus version of Discovery's "This World is Awesome" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=at_f98qOGY0).
Now, me and Qwerty could easily "karaoke it up" but we want you! Yes YOU! People of the community to sing for us! You are the voice of the people! All you have to do is record you singing a lyric we need, send it to me, and it will be put into the final video! (Just don't go all hammy and mess it up, we would hate to cut it out D:)
Here is the full lyric list that me and Qwerty slaved over a hot stove to bring you:
Keep in mind that one lyric is a single line. If we need more, we will request that if people want to do two, they can.
Prolog:
Aeronaut 1: It never gets old, huh?
Aeronaut 2: Nope.
Aeronaut 1: It kinda makes you wanna.....
Aeronaut 2: Break into song?
Aeronaut 1: Yep.
Song:
I love the moonshine,
I love the 2v1's,
I love to ram ships,
I love to harpoon squids.
I love the whole game
And all its ups and downs.
Boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada,
boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada.
I love to engie,
I love to commentate,
I love to go fast,
I love when we don't die.
I love the whole game,
and its community
Boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada,
boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada.
I love the snowmen,
I love to level up,
I love the clear skys,
I hate the dust bowl clouds,
I love the whole game
And all its ships and guns
Boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada,
boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada.
Boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada,
boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada.
Boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada.......
The submission can be Audio or video, just make sure your singing one of these lyrics along with a "Boom-de-yada."
You can send your submissions to me at mrhoneybad@gmail.com with the subject "Here you go you friggin Jagg" or just "Jagg" so I can easily find them!
I will be giving updates so check my posts on this thread so you don't record a lyric that was already recorded! Or do! Maybe yours will be better! (Just kidding)
Thanks to N-Sunderland for the original idea! And reminding me to credit him!
P.S. Hamster if your reading this, and if you wear your getup and sing one of these, (and a boom-de-ada) I will straight up throw my chair into the pool and record it.
-
Make sure you give me credit for the original idea :P

Don't worry, edited.
-
It doesn't work.
I love the mountains, (A)
I love the clear blue skies (B)
I love big bridges (C)
I love when great whites fly (B)
I love the whole world (D)
And all its sights and sounds (This is a continuation of D, not a new "I love the"
Boom-de-yah-da, boom-de-yah-da (twice)
You need a rhyme pattern, otherwise it sounds wrong.
Either way, good luck.
-
Wow, this sounds pretty nice. Can't wait for it to happen c:

Actually Keon, on most of the song, its A, B, A, B, and then C. It just sounds different because of the different voices/Volumes.
I've sung over my version, it works
*Edit* I stand corrected, but the rhyme pattern is the same in the original. and I don't use a new "I love" I go into another lyric, but it doesn't really sound like a continuation of D.
-
I wasn't gonna do this because.. but then I did... and man
I sound wierd... but if ya still need it I'll send it, lol
-
Yeah, I've recorded me doing some lines. Don't get your hopes up. Although, as an idea, we need Mawdjulus, Twinkie, Ataris etc to do one. Their voices and accents would show the variety of the game and how wacky the community is.
Also, I just want to hear Mawdjulus say he loves something, that in itself is worth it.

Oh yes, and we need RethBurn. His accent is pretty great. I'd also suggest Satchmo, but it's been forever since I last saw him.
-
Ah, I'll see if I can get RethBurn. Does anybody know Mawd well? We don't talk enough for me to be able to persuade him at all, and he might even dislike the idea
-
If you recorded it, send it to me!
-
Everybody tell everyone about this! and send your recordings if you have any to mrhoneybad@gmail.com

I'm gonna regret this aren't I

We've both done a lot of things that you're going to regret, but I think we can put this all behind us. For science. You monster.

I'll see if we can get a video contribution for this.

Get Hindenburg back here.

I guess...
though my whale voice is broken at the moment.
Though the shots of the whale noises should be snapped from each map (with nothing going on) from Dunes to Flayed.
-
We need to modify that opening dialog's imagery. Maybe two gunners looking at a skywhale or something.
-
We need more recordings, ;_;
All we have is Sgt Spoon's recording.
-

I'll throw my recording at you when I get out of class.

-
What's the rythm for the song gonna be? I wanna join but I need to know at what speed I should sing, even if only for one line.
-
Make it be like this in terms of speed and rhythm and all that:

Besides spectator mode is there a way to hide more of the hud?
-
You can bind keys to make HUD disappear. Check the second page of the keybindings menu (general, I think).
