If UZWorm is cool with being the master track for the instrumental stuff, then I'll wait on him to tackle it. That can be used as a reference for instrumental stuff! :allears: Also don't worry if you can't play an instrument well! It's the sum of all parts that makes these things neato! You don't need to carry the whole song on your back. Pirates weren't known for their broadway-tier skillsets, so don't be shy!

This'll either be amazing or an indecipherable cacophony of noise. I'm okay either way!

Also yes, Kuvo, you can auto-tune if you wanna be a Hatsune Miku of the high seas.

PS: I apologize once again for my inconsistent tempo. I wanted to go slowly at first and speed up but kind of just went all over the place.

That reminds me actually, in your master track for the last couple of verses you switch the "early on his birthday" lyrics for the "early in the morning" lyrics from the original. Just so the lyrics in my recording can match yours, was that intentional?

I've said it before but I really hate Link's appearance. His eyes are too big and football shaped compared to most of the other characters, and for all the "expressiveness" people claim it gives him, that's not really capitalized on in any way as you would have been able to do the same with a smaller head at the same resolution and distance from the camera.

Hello! I see you.


On the one hand, I love me a good sea shanty and have some semblance of singing talent. On the other, I am absolutely not drunk enough to sing sea shanties for an LP thread on the internet, and by the time I start to approach that level of drunkenness I'm also going to be mostly unconscious and therefore in no condition to perform.

I'm looking forward to hearing the results, though!

He actually entered with a decent Visual Kei song and I kinda hoped it'd make it to the finals but apparently it wasn't generic enough to put forward. Eurovision's weird like that.

Eurovision's had its fair share of sea shanties, though. I hope it can serve you as an inspiration in making your own. :)

I did something dumb, enjoy.
Dropbox Link

Yes I know that privateers are not pirates, but it's close enough.
I did it at a faster tempo than the original but I wanted to keep the time down a bit.

Geop's Privateers

O the year was Two-thousand and seven
How I wish I was on Youtube now
Ten bux was the price to pay in coin
To the scummiest forum I've ever joined

Chorus:
God drat them all
I was told we'd upload LP's for Youtube gold
We'd play no games, drink no beers
Now I'm a broken Lper with no peers,
The last of Geop's Privateers

O SA Geop cried the net
How I wish I was on Youtube now
For twenty brave goons all commenters who
Would make for him the Bonewheel's crew

Chorus:

The Bonewheel's setup was a horrible sight
How I wish I was on Youtube now
There were puns, bad jokes, and history class
And the injokes in the thread sucked major rear end

Chorus:

In the castle we posted an LP
How I wish I was on Youtube now
Ninety-one days to get feedback
And we were told that we were all hacks

Chorus:

On the ninety-sixth day we posted again
How I wish I was on Youtube now
When a great big rear end in a top hat hove in sight
With our cracked post buttons we made to fight

Chorus:

The Lper lay low down with gold
How I wish I was on Youtube now
He was broad and fat and had bad Let's Plays
But to mock him took the Bonewheel two whole days

Chorus:

Then at length he stood two cables away
How I wish I was on Youtube now
Our cracked post buttons made awful din
But with one bad vid he stove us in

Chorus:

The Bonewheel shook and pitched on her side
How I wish I was on Youtube now
Geop was smashed like a bunch of rocks
And the LPer called us a bunch of cocks

Chorus:

Now here I post in my twenty-third year
How I wish I was on Youtube now
It's been six years since we LPed away
And I just made Youtube fame yesterday

Chorus:
