OPEN BATTLE : : Represent your favourite song.

[Phix]

I'm gonna start preparing my volley about Europe's "Final Countdown".



Not really, but I'm gonna try to post something soon

Oh man!! That's a great song. Actually, its the "theme song" if you will for my group of friends... just had to add that in here

[MasterRex]

I think I might get started in these competitions through this thread.

My song shall be: Moonlight Shadow

The last that ever she saw him
carried away by a moonlight shadow
he passed on worried and warning
carried away by a moonlight shadow

Lost in a riddle that Saturday Night
far away on the other side
he was caught in the middle of a desperate fight
and she couldn't find how to push through

The trees that whisper in the evening
carried away by a moonlight shadow
sing a song of sorrow and grieving
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.

All she saw was a silhouette of a gun,
Far away on the other side.
He was shot six times by a man on the run
And she couldn't find how to push through.

I stay, I pray
See you in heaven far away.

I stay, I pray
See you in heaven one day.

Four A.M. in the morning
carried away by a moonlight shadow
I watched your vision forming
carried away by a moonlight shadow

I am at work, and all I have is GIMP here... so I shall give it a go with GIMP, then do it correctly in PS when I get home.

Oh, and if you would like to hear the song... it is tied into a slideshow a freind and I put together for our NYLF experience this summer. (I am the white kid playing DDR. Don't be fooled by the innocence.)

I am loving this thread I have never been in here till now. I think I will have to do up an image for this. Sadly some of Saints images and all of altys are not showing up and a few others I just keep seeing the flickr/whatever hosting you use hot link image

People pay the $25 a year and get a Flickr Pro account

[MasterRex]

This was made with GIMP... I simply didn't have the resources necessary to do what I wanted. Very poorly done.



However, I promise better things when I have some time later to work in Photoshop.

Refer to my prior post for the Song/Lyrics/Music itself.


*Photoshop version taking a hell of a lot longer than I planned to put into it...

May be done... next week... at this rate...

This big old car, gonna take us home
Gonna take us home to what we know so well
This big old car gonna take us home

i think its aussie country music...never heard of it.

[ViRGo_RK]

Well I had a dream
I stood beneath an orange sky
Yes I had a dream
I stood beneath an orange sky
With my brother and my sister standing by

[Ghostgirl705]

That's right, I am bumping this thread because I feel like it.
Time for me to get back in the swing of things right?
Knights of Cydonia is my current favorite song.

"Knights Of Cydonia"

Come ride with me
Through the veins of history
I'll show you how god
Falls asleep on the job

And how can we win
When fools can be kings
Don't waste your time
Or time will waste you

No one's gonna take me alive
The time has come to make things right
You and I must fight for our rights
You and I must fight to survive

No one's gonna take me alive
The time has come to make things right
You and I must fight for our rights
You and I must fight to survive

No one's gonna take me alive
The time has come to make things right
You and I must fight for our rights
You and I must fight to survive

I was reading Nordy's thread and I realized I have not used Photoshop to do anything but make website mock ups in almost 6 months. Though, it has taught me many new ways to use Photoshop, it is not very creative.

So here goes, comment, crits welcome as always.

Though decision to choose one's favorite song... but I guess my lifetime song would be "Planet Claire" from The B-52's, so here it is:

Planet Claire by The B-52's

Ahhhahhahhahh

She came from Planet Claire
I knew she came from there
She drove a Plymouth Satellite
Faster than the speed of light

Planet Claire has pink air
All the trees are red
No one ever dies there
No one has a head

Ahhhahhhahhahh

Some say she's from Mars
Or one of the seven stars
That shine after 3:30 in the morning
WELL SHE ISN'T

Ahhhahhhahhahhahhahh

...

I just aced that on medium Guitar Hero. I figured everyone would like to know my very important accomplishments.

[herr_dada]

I was bored... so I made another favorite of mine

Total Eclipse by Klaus Nomi

Big shots argue about what they've got
making the planet so hot, hot as a holocaust.
Blow up, everything's gonna go up
even if you don't show up in your Chemise Lacoste.

Total eclipse, it's a total eclipse,
it's a total eclipse of the sun.
Can't come to grips with the total eclipse
Just a slip of the lips and you're done.

Fall out, nobody left to crawl out
If someone calls, we're all out, turning in to French fries
Last dance, let the entire cast dance, do the dismembered blast dance
as we get atomized!

If you don't know who Nomi was, go google it, it was one of the best performers at his time. No one quite like him (not for the weak of heart though...)

This is a song from a band that is pretty good. My Chemical Romance have a handful of songs that really blow me away, and the rest (in my opinion) are mediocre. Helena is one of those songs that blew me away when I heard it.

..::HELENA::..
by My Chemical Romance

Long ago
Just like the hearse you die to get in again
We are so far from you

Burning on just like a match you strike to incinerate
The lives of everyone you know
And what's the worst you take
from every heart you break
And like the blade you stain
Well I've been holding on tonight

What's the worst that I can say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight

Came a time
When every star fall brought you to tears again
We are the very hurt you sold
And what's the worst you take
from every heart you break
And like the blade you stain
Well I've been holding on tonight

Can you hear me?
Are you near me?
Can we pretend to leave and then
We'll meet again
When both our cars collide?

What's the worst that I can say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
And if you carry on this way
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight

[Saint Benedetta]
