Truly excellent stuff, Fast Jimmy (and others). Great to see the art of parody is alive and well on the BSN.

Eerily enough, there's been a parody band lurking on a completely different set of forums here for over 2 years - the key difference being that they record the songs as well as crafting the lyrics.

...and...erm...that we missed this thread for 3 months.

Anyhow, its high time the Army of Gnoblars showed their face here. The second most popular song the band has recorded was about Dragon Age 2, and even got linked in the comments section on the now-infamous review by PC Gamer.

Its called Awesome Things, and is a tongue-in-cheek song from the perspective of an action gamer.

Its closely based on Scooby Snacks by the Fun Lovin Criminals.


Lyrics below:

Thought I'd try out a new game, so I picked up Dragon Age 2
Never heard of Bioware, but what the hell - the screenshots looked good
The hack n' slash is great because I don't care much for story
Watch me swing my massive sword and skip your allegories
I'll take down armies by myself and rise to power covered in glory

Because I'm running around doing awesome things with every button press
Turn my mind off and keep on bashing A A A and dealing death
(There's nothing wrong)

I'm a Call of Duty fanboy, action games are my favourite thing
I don't really like sitting through game dialogue 'coz I find it boring
Just tell me where to Fed Ex to and the rest I'll be ignoring
If there's more than thirty seconds between fights I'll start snoring
I don't play RPGs but I'm the audience I know you're adoring

I just like running around doing awesome things with every button press
Stab enemies and watch them all explode in such a gory mess

I like the way you streamlined all of my decision-making
Railroaded stat choice and companion itemisation
I don't quite understand this falling metacritic rating
Its like you changed the game in ways your fan base wasn't anticipating

But now we're running around doing awesome things with every button press
You could have re-used more places, and put in more waves to impress

Running around and doing awesome things
Running around and doing awesome things (There's nothing wrong)
Running around and doing awesome things (There's nothing wrong)
Running around and doing awesome things

Suck it up, princess

For some reason .. The first thing that came to my mind was ... Which song would be good to represent well electronic art ? After thinking for 1.5 sec ... I saw the light.

Ouch. In Soviet Russia, game designs YOU!

 Hey guys! sorry I have been neglecting this thread for a while, I have been caught up in the recent events here on the BSN (along with this whole "working" thing I got conned into doing a few years back... ). But I leave no work unfinished, let alone my planned tributes to MJ. With the 25th anniversary of the release of the"Bad" album this month, it makes this even more appropriate.

That being said, here we go!

To the theme of Jackson 5's ABC.

 


A buh-buh buh buh-buh....
a buh-buh buh buh-buh...

You played ME as Shepherd
Someone you never, never knew before
And watched him unite a whole galaxy
Against a Reaper threat at the door

Now now now, Catalyst's teach you (teach you, teach you)
All about AI's now (all about AIs)
Sit yourself down, take a seat
All you gotta do is repeat after me

Red, Blue Green! Its the endings of ME3
All pre-EC DLC
Red, Blue, Green, ME3 endings are so silly, Shep

Red, Blue Green! Its the endings of ME3
All pre-EC DLC
Red, Blue, Green, ME3 endings are so crazy, Shep 

Come on, see the plight of organics
Star Child's gonna show you how to sort it out
Come on, come on, come on
Let me see what the ME series is really all about

Levis, AIs and organics
All couldn't just let each other be
So they built Star Brat and called it a day, Shep
But the solution ain't complete

H-H-H-He's gonna show you (show you, show you)
How to save the day
Go left, right or the middle one, too
Listen to me Shep, that's all you gotta do

Red, Blue Green! Its the endings of ME3
All pre-EC DLC
Red, Blue, Green, ME3 endings are so silly, Shep  

Red, Blue Green! Its the endings of ME3
All pre-EC DLC
Red, Blue, Green, ME3 endings are so crazy

Don't die, Shep... I think I love you!
No, get up, Shep!
Show me that you can Refuse!

Shoot it, shoot it, Shep, come on now
Shoot it, shoot that Catalyst, ooo oooh
Shoot it, shoot it, Shep, huh
RBG, Shepherd oo ooh!
ME3, Shepherd nah nah!
So crazy, Shepy
That's how easy war can be

Its easy, its easy, like hopping in a beam
Or shoot a red doo-hicky
That's how easy peace can be
I'm not gonna tell you to pick Control
Because, because, because
That's what you just fought TIM about!

Red, Blue, Green! Its easy saving the galaxy
Except you're not, maybe
That's not as easy as war should be
What Catalyst's shows you don't make me proud
Don't make me proud, makes me go, makes me, it makes me hate
Red, Blue, Green and the entire ME series.

 Can you dig it? (We can dig it!)Can y'all dig it? (We can dig it!)

And... now I'm tempted to do a Whomp! There It Is parody somewhere down the line... 

[BioFan (Official)]

lolz.

[A Crusty Knight Of Colour]

[Fast Jimmy]

 To the tune of Michael Jackson's Black or White.


Deal with it.


WOOOOH!

Bodahn took a baby from the Deep Roads thaig
Is that beardless dwarf with you? Yes, we're one and the same.
Now, dwarves are good at enchanting,
but this kid can enchant out of sight! 

HEE!
    
But there's no way Sandal is the Old God Baby,
that don't make sense at all, amiright?

The two dwarves helped save all of Ferelden
Sandal's encahnting was second to none
Then I heard him talk about a prophecy
wow, he's got to be The One, sure as night!
Sandal is the Old God Baby
U jelly that I'm totally right?

He time traveled to this age
He was teleported in the buff
He's here to stop Flemeth
from doing some really bad stuff

He time traveled to this age
He was teleported in the buff
He's here to stop Flemeth
he's about to "not enchantment" some mo' fo's up!


[Rapper Anders]
While Thedas goes to war with its nations
due to Mage/Templar relations
He's got his eyes on a global scale
He knows there's more than two sides of the tale
See, it's not about mages, or Templar bases
Not if you can cast, he's just trying to unify the races
He may seem like he can't get duller
But just try saying that in front of his mother.[/end]

Don't tell him "Hey come live with me"
And then complain about footprints on the lights!
Because Sandal is the Old God Baby
U just jelly 'cause I'm totally right.
Yes, he's a time traveling OGB
Don't argue, you know its totally right
And you won't meet his brother 
The New God Baby until the Sixth Blight

U jelly? I'm right
Its tough to accept the light
U jelly? I'm right 
U jelly? I'm right
Its tough to accept the light...

WOOOOOH!

 I wanted to do a few more songs, but I think I'm going to wrap up my string of MJ songs with the quintessential Bad.



Searching the Korcari Wilds
right outside the Blight
Looking for Warden treaties
That will help our fight

Allistair's got your back
with darkspawn to kill
Daveth and Jory...
well they're not ideal

Darkspawn... darkspawn..
collecting their blood, alright...


Morrigan creeps up from behind a tree
Says she can show you the stuff... but not for free
You have to come with her to meet her mom
A Wtich of the Wild? This seems wrong...

Morrigan says there's a time limit
But I'm not sure that's really true
She's says "do you think they'll swoop in?"
Allistair says that's not cool... because

Swooping is bad! Its bad... (really, really bad!)
Swooping is bad! Its bad... (really, really bad!)
Swooping is bad! Its bad... (really, really bad!)
And the Warden has to answer right now
Just to tell Morrigan... its bad!


The word is out, the ambush failed
Loghain is after you, your ship has sailed
He's hired the Crows to take you life
A master assassin, to end the strife
A woman's plea brings you to the man
He says to kill you all in the trap he's planned

Well, his minions circle round
and surround all of your crew
Well I guess Allistair was right
Because this just won't do... because

Swooping is bad! Its bad... (really, really bad!)
Swooping is bad! Its bad... (really, really bad!)
Swooping is bad! Its bad... (really, really bad!)
And the Warden has to answer right now
Just to tell Zevran... its bad!

We can end the Blight tomorrow
Before its ever increased pace
But on the tower of Drakon,
The Archdemon drops down on your face!

Swooping is bad! Its bad... (really, really bad!)
Swooping is bad! Its bad... (really, really bad!)
Swooping is bad! Its bad... (really, really bad!)
And the Warden has to answer right now
Just to tell the Demon again... its bad!

Swooping is bad! Its bad... (really, really bad!)
Swooping is bad! Its bad... (really, really bad!)
Swooping is bad! Its bad... (really, really bad!)
And the Warden has to answer right now
Just to tell the Demon again... its bad!

(Repeat six times)

And the Warden has to answer right now
Just to tell the Demon again... its bad!

Swoop's bad!

 To the tune of Blue's Travellers Hook




It doesn't matter what my PC says...
as long as I can choose his intention
It makes me feel he can convey
a nice/funny/mean emotion...

But I've chosen no dialogue so far
And the paraphrases can be misleading or fake
'Cause it don't matter who your PC's are...
If their doing their job, its your immersion that breaks...

Because the wheel holds you back...
I ain't telling you no lie...
The wheel holds you back...
On this you can rely...

 
There is something amiss!
My choices aren't clear...
In fact, I didn't mean to say any of this...
Still the emoticon will appear

To confuse the player and infer
where the response of the NPC will go
No matter how much tone you can confer
What made fanbase refuse to grow...

Was that the wheel holds you back...
I ain't telling you no lie...
The wheel holds you back...
On this you can rely...


{BAWS HARMONICA SOLO}


Suck it prin, suck it prin, suck it prin
suck it up princess as I begin
You don't like wheel? Tough tootin'
And then begin to see what RPG have begun to be
This cinematic is not for free
And my non-PC is killing me
So desperately I cling to the

list!

Sure, also choice and role and dialogue that is true to self
And I can't keep these old school ideas to myself
I've tried... well, no in fact I lied
It'd be video game cyanide and I've got too much in mind beside
Epilgoue slides
Let me have any ending I decide and choice I've eyed, even how my PC died
And with the canon I would abide
But the wheel precludes
Any control over my destiny
It busts every RP balloon
and doesn't let me burn a single city to the ground!

I've found you cannot mess around
with how I play, but hey
doesn't everyone want to play this way?
I have a rant to rave
That's really all this was
And when I'm feeling stuck on a parody slump
I don't grasp at straws


I'll say that the wheel holds you back...
I ain't tellin you no lie!
The wheeeeeeel...

On that you can rely......!
