SL Theme Song

Take any of the above, resample it to around 20 kbps, then random drop MP3 frames and replace them with static. Now you've got the SL theme song.

Neurotica by King Crimson

"Good morning, it's 3am in this great roaring
city full of garbage eaters ravaging parking
spots beneath my plaza window I see cheetah in their
tight skins and tired heels all-night hippo in
the diner crossing the street swarthy herds of young
impala flambastic gibbon even a struggling monza
and over there that brilliant head ornament on that
Japanese macaque but look closely at the hammerhead hand
in hand with the mandrill, it's a sight you're
unlikely to see anywhere else on the planet...
the stench and noise, yes, yes, the howler's
resonating repertoire is not too bad when mixed with
the more musical twern of the tropical warbler but the
impatient taxi blare the squawking elderly ibis and
the glass-eye snapper hawking papers I can certainly
live without also be cautious of the poisonous
boomslang laughter social droppings of the fruit bat
and purple queen fish and who's that babbler conversing
with a magazine stand? evidently he's getting a good
reply...
arrive in neurotica
through neon heat disease
I swear at the swarming heards
I sweat the foul terrain
I rove the moving scenery
I have no fin
no wing no stinger
no claw no camouflage
I have no more to say...
Say...isn't that an elephant fish on the corner over
there look at that blush baby mud puppy noolbenger
rhinoderma marmoset spring peeper shingleback skink
siren skate starling sun-gazer spoonbill and suckers,
they seem to be everywhere, well it's a live revue
random animal parts now playing nightly right here in neurotica...
so long..."

I've been listening to too much Steely Dan lately, so Deacon Blues, minus the depressing chorus:

This is the day
Of the expanding man
That shape is my shade
There where I used to stand
It seems like only yesterday
I gazed through the glass
At ramblers
Wild gamblers
Thats all in the past

You call me a fool
You say its a crazy scheme
This ones for real
I already bought the dream
So useless to ask me why
Throw a kiss and say goodbye
Ill make it this time
Im ready to cross that fine line

Chorus:
(deleted)

My back to the wall
A victim of laughing chance
This is for me
The essence of true romance
Sharing the things we know and love
With those of my kind
Libations
Sensations
That stagger the mind

I crawl like a viper
Through these suburban streets
Make love to these women
Languid and bittersweet
Ill rise when the sun goes down
Cover every game in town
A world of my own
Ill make it my home sweet home

Chorus

This is the night
Of the expanding the man
I take one last drag
As I approach the stand
I cried when I wrote this song
Sue me if I play too long
This brother is free
Ill be what I want to be

Chorus

haha Nice Songs.= ]

Didn't think Trans-X was that popular outside of Montreal.

I would suggest "You stink but I love you" by Billy and the Boingers.

It's on Amazon, if you have no idea what I'm talking about

Basement Jaxx - "Where's your Head at"

Lyrics:

Where's your head at, at, at, at?
Where's your head at?
Where's your head at?
Where's your head at?

Where's your head at?
Where's your head at?
Where's your head at?

Where's your head at?
Where's your head at?
Where's your head at?

Where's your head at?
Where's your head at?
Where's your head at?

Don't let the walls
Cave in on you
We can't evolve alone
Without you
Don't let the walls
Cave in on you
We can't evolve alone
Without you
Don't let the walls
Cave in on you
You get what you give
That much is true
Don't let the walls
Cave in on you
You turned the world away
>From you

Where's your head at?
Where's your head at?
Where's your head at?

Where's your head at?
Where's your head at?
Where's your head at?

You have found yourself
Trapped in this
Incomprehensible maze
Where's your head at?
Where's your head at?

Don't make it easy on yourself
Where's your head at?
Got to get
Got to get
Got to get
Got to get

Where's your head at?

Where's your head at?
Where's your head at?
Where's your head at?

Where's your head at?
Where's your head at?
Where's your head at?

Don't let the walls
Cave in on you
We can't evolve alone
Without you
Don't let the walls
Cave in on you
We can't evolve alone
Without you
Where's your head at?
Where's your head at?
We can't evolve alone
Without you
We can't evolve alone
Without you

Anything of Torley's really.
He R0x0rz.

"All I Want" I forget who made it...It's that song in Crazy Taxi that plays in the intro when the taxi flies off the top of the hill

Maybe "Personal Space Invader" by Sugar Ray? "Whole New World", the theme song for Phantasy Star Online, would be good in a trailer. When I'm building, I always have music playing, usually songs from Dance Dance Revolution...most of those fit

"Your only friends are make believe" by the Bloodhound Gang

FTW!

Ciggerettes and Alcohol - Oasis

*snork!*

I used to go with Detachable Penis or Banana Phone, but lately, I've been all about this:

Frontier Psychiatry

Titties and Beer - Frank Zappa

I don't effing think so! LOL that song falls under my list of:
"WAY too often requested club songs that should never be played again, no matter how much people want to hear it"

Kinky Friedman - The Take-it-easy Trailer Park

Dearly Darlings,

The one song I don't think I'd be sick of after five minutes of re-booting after another crash would be the theme song from "Peter Gun" by Henry Mancini-- 1958 I think it was....I'll have to go look.

I hope you all all have a lovely day.

Ever Yours,

Mrs. Showdog Tiger

Switchfoot - Meant to Live

Fumbling his confidence
And wondering why the world has passed him by
Hoping that he's bid for more than arguments
And failed attempts to fly, fly

[Chorus]
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside
Somewhere we live inside
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside

Dreaming about Providence
And whether mice or men have second tries
Maybe we've been livin with our eyes half open
Maybe we're bent and broken, broken

[Chorus]

We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than the wars of our fathers
And everything inside screams for SECOND LIFE, yeah

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live
We were meant to live

Or perhaps Pink Floyd - Learning to Fly

Into the distance, a ribbon of black
Stretched to the point of no turning back
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Standing alone my senses reeled
A fatal attraction is holding me fast,
How can I escape this irresistible grasp?

Can't keep my eyes from the circling sky
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earthbound misfit, I

Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything
No navigator to guide my way home
Unladened, empty and turned to stone
A soul in tension that's learning to fly
Condition grounded but determined to try

Can't keep my eyes from the circling sky
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earthbound misfit, I

Above the planet on a wing and a prayer,
My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air,
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
Out of the corner of my watering eye
A dream unthreatened by the morning light
Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night

There's no sensation to compare with this
Suspended animation, A state of bliss
Can't keep my eyes from the circling sky
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earthbound misfit, I

Some things in SL are bad,
They can really make you mad,
Other things just make you swear and curse,
When you're chewing life's gristle,
Don't grumble,
Give a whistle
And this'll help things turn out for the best.
And...

Always look on the bright side of secondlife.
[whistle]
Always look on the light side of secondlife.
[whistle]

If SL seems jolly rotten,
There's something you've forgotten,
And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing.
When you're feeling in the dumps,
Don't be silly chumps.
Just purse your lips and whistle.
That's the thing.
And...

Always look on the bright side of secondlife.
[whistle]
Always look on the right side of secondlife,
[whistle]

For SL is quite absurd
And LL has the final word.
You must always face the curtain with a bow.
Forget about your sin.
Give the audience a grin.
Enjoy it. It's your last chance, anyhow.
So,...

Always look on the bright side of death,
[whistle]
Just before you draw your terminal breath.
[whistle]

SL's a piece of shit,
When you look at it.
SL's a laugh and LL's a joke it's true.
You'll see it's all a show.
Keep 'em laughing as you go.
Just remember that the last laugh is on you.
And...

Always look on the bright side of secondlife.
Always look on the right side of secondlife.
[whistle]

Always look on the bright side of secondlife!
[whistle]
Always look on the bright side of secondlife!
[whistle]
Always look on the bright side of secondlife!
[whistle]

I think we should make up our own SL theme song, to the tune of the Batman theme song (from the TV show).
Thoughts?

Only if we get a campy spinning logo for scene changes.

"Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives." *cue dramatic music*

A lot of these threads should start with that one.

I vote for "Dare to be Stupid" by Weird Al Yankovic

Too bad their lead tongue thwaper got caught doing good wholesome things thereby destroying the reputation of the band and causing their ultimate destruction.
