I checked with the Mods and they said this was ok. I wrote this diddy using one of my favorite songs "Eye of the Tiger" and turned it into a spoof for KOTOR. So here it is. I give you:
The Eye of the Jedi
Rising up back on the streets
Take your time, take some chances
Don't lose your grip on the saber in your hands
You must fight just to keep him alive
[Chorus]
It's the eye of the Jedi, the will of the Force
Rising up to the challenge of Lord Malak
And the strong former Lord
Runs him through with the blade
And she's watching us all with the eye of the Jedi
Face to face, feeling the heat
Have the strength, have the courage
He stacks the odds when he takes in the strength
Of the Forge with the will to conquer
[Chorus]
It's the eye of the Jedi, the will of the Force
Rising up to the challenge of Lord Malak
And the strong former Lord
Runs him through with the blade
And she's watching us all with the eye of the Jedi
Rising up, straight from the heart
Hanging tough, feeling love
She beats the odds drawing on her love's strength
Gives a kiss when her love Carth survives
[Chorus]
It's the eye of the Jedi, the will of the Force
Rising up to the challenge of Lord Malak
And the strong former Lord
Runs him through with the blade
And she's watching us all with the eye... of the Jedi
The eye of the Jedi
Nice, can you do a version for the male Revan?
It's good, although very disturbing. Keep it up. :)
@Alkonium: Maybe with male Revan on a different song
@Hallucination: I know it's disturbing. I got the idea from kotorfanmedia
I'll have another up when the muse bites. :D
Kewl Man, you certinaly have a good ear for music.
Sincerely,
BastilaandRevan :lsduel:
thats a good piece of work. does it use the tune and beat of The Real Slim Shady?
It actually fits with the song Eye of the Tiger (Rocky III). I have the CD and my brother plays it like crazy on his stereo so the tune was stuck in my head.
actually, the Eye of the Tiger is a remix of Eminem's The Real Slim Shady, it has the same tune, only its a bit lengthened.
^ :lol:
The song 'Eye of the Tiger' came out _long_ before Eminem was ever on the scene. Eminem was only 9 or 10 when Survivor wrote/sang it. It's Eminem reusing it, not the other way around.
Fun lyrics!! I can so hear the song in my head. :D
This was actually an interesting piece of literature. And I thought it'll be too weird for my taste, though it is somewhat weird. In the end I'd like to second that suggestion on the male Revan song.
I am writing one as we speak for a male Revan. It will be a rap song. That is all I can release to the press at this time :D
Just as long as it doesn't start with:
''Yo! Yo! Yo! My name is Revan and I'm here to say:
There's a certain Sith I have to slay!''
As requested by two of our forumites, I have a new diddy concerning a male Revan. It was quite difficult to do but I think it sounds ok. Being a WWE wrestling fan, especially of John Cena, I made this diddy a rap diddy based on Cena's rap Right Now from his album You Can't See Me. This is actually a love rap to Bastilla from Revan and a few crew members. :lol:
You would have to hear the rap in order to get the gist. Hope you guys enjoy and stay tuned for Malak's own ballad :D
Revan’s in Love
[Revan]
Here now a minute and I’ll lighten the mood
Just tellin’ it like the chroniclers do
A bit of soul food I’d be rhyming to
And if you love me, I’m writing for you
Ride now put another coat of wax on my ride
For a minute put the beef on Malak aside
Cause this guy’s got a ride to chill to
And enjoy life for five minutes, it’s not gonna kill you
It’s ok to be hard and stay true man
But at the end of the day, we all human
This one’s for you, the one I’m close to
I’ll show some love, it’s what I’m supposed to
Right now forget the ends and the bends
We’ll pop a cold one Sweet and toast it with our friends
Give me a kiss cause we’re tight now
And everything’s lookin’ pretty good right now
[Refrain: Mission and Juhani]
Oh love, Revan’s in love
He says so to make you happy
Oh love, Revan’s in love
From the bottom of his heart he tells it to you
[Carth]
Right now baby, you’re goin’ for a ride
So place that saber on your hip aside
Your souls mate here in the Outer Rim
Touch hands you know you love him
Relax baby, now you’re here
Sit back baby, with you hearts endeared
And a kiss to him whose crowded near
For the Masters passed on in spirit they there
Revan’ll love you with a must
He’ll beat Malak or suffer a bust
He’ll fight for baby and tell you you’re strong
Whispering in your ear after righting the wrong
Now follow your heart baby everything’s real
When you together you enjoy that feel
Thank Force that you’re healthy and you’re keepin’ it tight
You keep your dreams lighthearted when you see him at night
[Refrain: Mission and Juhani]
Oh love, Revan’s in love
He says so to make you happy
Oh love, Revan’s in love
From the bottom of his heart he tells it to you
[Revan]
And right now I’m so grateful to my brothers and the old man
To my girl let’s get it on like the slow jam
To everyone I’m travelin’ down the lanes with
Y’all my family I know that you know this
My heart goes out to one girl
Who stayed by me under a watchful eye
Cause of Jolee watchin’ from afar
Bastilla you my heart and nothin’ but love
Thanks my Sweet for all that you was
A strong little lady makin’ me crazy with love
You saved me that is a fact
You helped me rebuild when I should’ve collapsed
And right now I’m blessed let me give you a kiss
And thank the Force for givin’ me back focus
Yeah my darlin’, what can I say?
It’s a love from day one, you showed me the way
[Refrain: Mission and Juhani]
Oh love, Revan’s in love
He says so to make you happy
Oh love, Revan’s in love
From the bottom of his heart he tells it to you
It's good, although I can't quite see it as a love rap. Or any kind of rap. But then again I'm not the type to read lyrics and imagine what it sounds like. Keep up the great work! :D
P.S. Could you post the lyrics from the original?
I'll PM them to you when I find them. I learned it by listening to it and I think the original artist calls it hip hop or something. I'll try and find it.
Alright, thank you, and keep up the great job. :)
Query: Hip hop, eh? The thing when your hips hop?
(Just trying to be funny, I know what hip hop is :). Keep up the good work JM12)
ya good work dude. and the EotT thing, i was referring to Shaggy's remix of Eminem's song. w/e. you did good
In continuing with my semiinsane state, I created a new diddy using the song Foresaken from the movie Queen of the Damned. This type I thought suited the occasion in that this is sung by Darth Malak himself. I hope you enjoy and stay stuned for a Bindo moment :D
Dark Lord Malak
I’m hatin’ you
You see I’m rising in a dark power
Clouded by the dark side of the Force
At last I say:
My anger’s rising
I will conquer and I’ll make you dig your grave
But you’ve escaped my grasp now
Always foiling my plans
You’ll die Revan
[Chorus]
You see I will not stop this searching
Bastilla will be mine
We will crush you and the Republic
I am the Dark Lord Malak
I’m hunting you
Why couldn’t you just die on your blasted ship?
The Jedi saved, taking off the mask
At last revenge
My anger’s boiling
I will crush you and will kill you for sure
You will fight me
And your memory
Master versus apprentice
[Chorus]
You see I will not stop this searching
Bastilla will be mine
We will crush you and the Republic
I am the Dark Lord Malak
[Repeat Chorus]
These are a lot of fun. Looking forward to more.
im with her.
thats a good piece of work. i can just imagine the Dark Lord dressed in baggy bermudas and a long dog-tag with a reversed cap on his head rapping this out :lol:
nice rhymes, lol although malak sucks as rapper
That last one isn't a rap. :lol:
The last one is one of those Goth songs from the movie Queen of the Damned. It's the opening theme. Malak doesn't rap. He's Goth :lol:
Malak the Metal-Man! He he, see the dual meaning in this? :D
OH Dude! You snapped! Holy :swear:
A flashfire of a lyrical gumbo simmered to perfection.
Das what I'm talkin' 'bout!
I was laughing so hard my eyes were watering as I tried to read Eye of theJedi.
BRILLIANT. I could hear the music clearly as I scrolled through. Although flashes of Stallone wearing a jedi robe and boxing gloves appeared in my head at times as I read.
I went to RAW when it was in Milwaukee a few months ago and I've been peeking in at times on Monday nights, so I know Sena's song. I was able to follow. nice rendition.
I can picture Juhani and Mission quickly waving their hands in front of their faces then activating their stealth units, disappearing. "You can't see me!"
I never saw Queen of the Damned, but when I do, I'm sure to smile.
Nice work. No wonder you haven't dropped anything on the Echani thread in a while, you've been busy honing your lyrical skills for the Diddies. Commendable.
It may be time for a country diddie. Bastilla sings Shania Twain, if you have time, of course.
...Oh, and by the way,
TRIPLE "H" baybay!!!!!! :hit4:
Cygnus. The rap is not his entrance song but you can see the music video for Right Now on the WWE website. :D
Thanks for the praise...I think. ;)
What's the next song you're planing? I was thinking, since you did a rock, hip-hop and metal (goth) song, you could try a pop, or a dance song next time.
I am working on one involving Jolee Bindo but here is another one that I will leave you guessing as to where it comes from before I tell ya.
When You’re a Sith
When you’re a Sith, you’re a Sith all the way
From your first bloody kill till your last dying day
When you’re a Sith ya do what ya can
They can’t stop ya now, no one stays your hand
You’re always alone but never disconnected
You’ve minions around but never well acquainted
You’re semi-protected
Then you are set with a capital ‘S’
Which you’ll never give up till they send ya to bliss
When you’re a Sith, you stay a Sith!!
When you’re a Sith you’re the bad boys around
You’re with the man and his heavyweight crown
When you’re a Sith you grab what you can
We’re not noobs here now we are grown up men
The Siths are in gear we always know the workings
We always walk tall cause all of our killings
Are lousy Republics
Here come the Siths like a tukata hound
If someone gets in our way they won’t be around
Here come the Siths stand away, stand aside
You get in the way we will beat your poor hide
We’re drawin’ the line and making us a claim here
We’re taking what’s ours and having us a cold beer
We’re something to fear
Here come the Siths, yeah, and we’re gonna beat
Every last ole Republic on the whole damn street
In the whole lousy galaxy!!! Yeah
Ok I know it's been awhile since I posted a new diddy but I have a brand new one. It is another number from West Story. The last one was about the Sith and their gang on Dreshdae. This one is about the perks and falls of being on the Ebon Hawk with the gang, the EHawks. Sung to the number entitled America.
The Ebon Hawk
Revan:
The Endar Spire, pride of the Republic
Let it be blown into bits
Always chased by the Sith fleet
Always the engines take a beatin’
And the blast to the seat
And too slow for speeding
And the crewmen complaining
I like the freighter Ebon Hawk
So take your complaints
And blow it out your rear
EHawk Gals:
I like to be on the Ebon Hawk
Just right for me on the Ebon Hawk
Everything here on the Ebon Hawk
Carth:Crammed in a seat on the Ebon Hawk
Revan:Playing a smuggler is so nice
Carth:One look at us and they shoot twice
Mission:I have my own swoop bike
Canderous:In a garage fit for a trike
Revan:Engines go vroom on the Ebon Hawk
Bastila:Hyperdrive zoom on the Ebon Hawk
Juhani:Fighters go boom with the Ebon Hawk
EHawk Guys:Nine in a room on the Ebon Hawk
Revan:Two new bunkrooms with more space
Carth:Lots of people standin’ in our face
Revan:I have my own compartment
Carth:Zaalbar will have to stand bent
Revan:Lights are bright on the Ebon Hawk
EHawk Guys:And always a fight on the Ebon Hawk
EHawk Gals:Travel’s all right on the Ebon Hawk
EHawk Guys:If you're air tight on the Ebon Hawk
Revan and Bastila:Here we have speed on our side
EHawk Guys:Unless they tractor our own hide
Revan and Bastila:Speed to counter an ambush
EHawk Guys:Speed turrets that are sluggish
Carth:
Cleaning out grime on the Ebon Hawk
History of crime on the Ebon Hawk
Dangerous times on the Ebon Hawk
Revan:You forget I’m on the Ebon Hawk
Carth:The cockpit is a welcome room
Revan:I know a tunnel to go through. Bye-bye
Carth:Nothing in there to jeer
Revan:Then you miss all the fun in here
All: Ole!
HK-47:Ready!
awesome! i could picture the tune in my mind! you go girl! :D
the last line was a classic, though:
Ready!
ROFL!
Nice. I could almost hear the melody of the song. :lol:
Nice. I could almost hear the melody of the song. :lol:
Me too :lol:. Best one yet.
:rofl:
"Crammed in a seat on the Ebon Hawk" and "Nine in a room on the Ebon Hawk" had me just howling. :D
*takes a bow*
Thank you all. Believe me, I was busting up when I reread those lines. That one I had jogging around in my overactive brain for a long time. It was in there with a disturbing number called "I Feel Evil." Thank you all for bustin' a gut and enjoying this. I'll be out with another as soon as I have the lyrics down.
Those are Hilarious. Keep it up.
Off Topic, but doesn't Green Day have a version of "Eye of the Tiger" as well?
Very good, now I have to see West Story so I can appreciate your effort more.
@ Maverick: I wouldn't know. I am only familiar with the version on Rocky III
@ Hallucination: Always appreciative. I think you may like West Side Story.
Those are Hilarious. Keep it up.
Off Topic, but doesn't Green Day have a version of "Eye of the Tiger" as well?
i dont think so. but the words "Green Day" got me thinking. i'm just gonna rework the lyrics of one of their songs to suit SW. it'll probably be about the CloneWars. id post it here, but it's JM12's thread. of course, if i had her permission...
Permission...hm...hm...
Could I beta it for you before posting it? I'll give you your due credit unless you want to start your own.
sure, no prob. i'll PM it to you once i've done it. i'm not starting a new thread because i probably won't make another one.
Well here is a new one. It is actually comes from my fic Heart of the Guardian. It is an Avalonian song about a flower of all things. The tune though sould be familiar as it comes from another musical.
Jasilyn, Jasilyn
Every morning you greet me
Pure and white
Shining bright
You bring joy here to greet me
Blossom of love
May you bloom and grow
Bloom and grow forever
Jasilyn, Jasilyn
Bless the morning forever
Very short, compared to your other ones. I like it though. And I don't recognise where it is from.
Short and sweet. Keep it up. :thumbsup:
@ Pottsie: It is in Ch 21 of Rise of the Blood King. It's the song Kirabaros sings to Mission on Rakata Prime.
OK. It's been awhile since my Jasilyn song so I have a new number for you. This is in honor of our forum mum Jae Onasi who wrote one of the best fics on Jolee Bindo. This is done to the song I Will Survive and comes from the point of view of my favorite cranky Jedi: Jolee Bindo. So without further ado, enjoy...
Will I Survive?
I admit I was afraid
Shoot I was petrified
I never thought that Nayama would fall to the darkside
I’ve sat here thinking what else could go wrong
It’s been so long
Then she had to come along
Now I’m back
And here to fight
Though I’m just an old man watching two lovebirds ruin my poor sight
I should’ve stayed home
I should’ve shooed her away
I should’ve known she’d nag me to help her save the day
Standing there
Right in my door
Wondering why I never asked about the free food before
The Wookiee smells like dirt
The Twi’lek, a mouthy little thing
And Revan and Carth have their little fling
And I sigh
Will I survive?
These youngsters will haunt me till the day I die
Dammit I’m an old man
Just here to give advice
I just hope she won’t have to pay a price
So we searched
For the Maps
Trying to help my mate Sunry, the poor ole broken chap
She asks me more questions
And soon and very soon
She had to nag about dear ole Exar Kun
And here we are
Upon the Forge
She’s gone through the door to face him alone
So we stand here waiting
Ready to get her and flee
Waiting for her to find her destiny
Very good. I think Jae will love it, if she looks.
Will I Survive?
:lol: :rofl: :lol:
Great one, JM12. Pure classic! I lolZed my a** off. Keep 'em coming.
ROFL! that was great! very nice, JM12 :thumbsup:
Standing there
Right in my door
Wondering why I never asked about the free food before
The Wookiee smells like dirt
The Twi’lek, a mouthy little thing
And Revan and Carth have their little fling
:rofl:
"Free food" :lol:
And since I actually remember hearing that one on the radio, I can hear the tune in my head, too. :giggle1:
Thank you. I busted up every time I wrote a line for this piece. This one was for you Jae. :)
