Do They Know It's VR?

They do now. Here it is, in the mp3est of all formats, the mp3 format.

LINK!

Yes, months of hard work, hard waiting and THAT TUNE has finally paid off. It's finished, probably badly balanced, looks absolutely horrible on a wave diagram but IT'LL DO.
It became a huge Audacity file and very difficult to work with (the computer struggled to load all of the tracks at the correct time and took a minute to recover after being stopped)

Please don't tell me if I've left anyone out. Actually, do tell me. But be quiet about it.

So thanks to all of the above, in various proportions. 'specially the James for tricking people into thinking it was a team effort, and Claire for getting as impatient as I did.

Here are the lyrics, pilgrim:

Do They Know It's VR?

It's wrist-slit time,
College was so sh*t today,
You feel maligned,
Someone took your lunch money away,
And you just want to post it,
On Things That f*ck You Off No End,
For all the boys and girls,
And Sammy Tsang.

You would go out,
But you’re a discard,
So you f*ck about,
On the shoutbox of VR,
And there's a world inside your PC,
In the depths of the internet,
Where hordes of the bourgeoisie,
Who've mostly never met,
Will play Word Disassociation,
And post about what they wear,
They spam and rant as though,
You even care.

Well, you could have a meet in Edinburgh this summertime,
If you're prepared to come back home in drag, oh-ohhhhh-oh,
You’d harass people in the street,
Several times, and then repeat,
Or simply lose your virginity.

Here’s to n00bs, who think they're so bizarre,
Acting cool with their Megaman avatars,
Don’t they know it’s our f*ckin’ VR?

VR, ooooh,
What a place to vent your spleen.
VR, ooooh,
Founded on the Mega-Zine.
We are, the...
Saddest tw*ts you've ever seen.
VR, ooooh,
Most of our posts are obscene.
It's improved:
You can change the colour scheme.

Merry Christmas, one and all!

Perhaps we could, like, do dinner sometime make another someday soon. If anyone can write a good enough parody and find the karaoke track (or MIDI file, if we must), it's worth trying.

i was thinking we could do 'the twelve days of christmas' in VR form. that would be ace

also, if bob the builder can get to #1 then im sure we can!

Like the YouTube Choir thingy! I'd link but I'm off to work.

And yes. Off to work, and I'll be late now because I had to listen to this first. Had to. And it was worth it - this is all kinds of good, apart from the cringing, but even that's good. And funny. Woo!

/me sends track to mp3 player for the journey walking in...

this is awful.

Good work, team.

I did literally nothing, but shout at a microphone. Now downloading.

But with my "Pretending to Be In Charge as Well" hat still on, thanks to everyone who sent their contributions and made Colin hate Bob Geldof and the other Band Aiders with every inch of his being as he sat through the karaoke track for the 500th time.

EDIT: Listened to it. Jesus f*cking Christ, we rock.

For a follow up I think we should do a cover of the theme tune of Fresh Prince of Bel Air. The long version.

This is the most I've wished I had broadband to download something ever.

I would second that Fresh Prince theme tune motion.

This is more magnificent than Robert Johnson. Good work team.

And i third the motion for the Fresh Prince theme.

Wow, I could actually be bothered waiting for it to download on dial up. The Patch music section has its first record of the week.

you could just stream it from the myspace link above.

too late, im guessing

I WANT TO LISTEN TO THIS SO SO SO SO BADLY.

Sadly,. I've been in public places and thus, have not been able to treat myself yet, but, uh...I will trust everyone else's judgement and pretend I've listened already and say WELL DONE!

cannae wait to hear it!

Oh man, I can't believe you cut me!

Person singing 'what a place to vent your spleen' - who is it? Cause it sure as hell ain't me.

I don't really mind but I think I should make some show of kicking up a fuss.

It is you....

Somebody is now going to say "everyone says that when they hear themselves on tape", so I'm going to provide a little relevant fact that will make you all go 'oooo'. Except for the ones who already knew.

When you hear yourself on tape, thats how you actually sound. You're just used to hearing yourself through vibrations in your jawbones, rather than through the air like everyone else.

Somone please pretend they didn't know that already

THIS IS AMAZING!

Oh god, this is so amazing!

Who sings the "things that f*ck you off no end" bit? They've got a great voice.

claire, i believe i like emma 37th! especially the echo. tres amusing.

Also, Gary's "aohhhhOOoOOO!!" makes me giggle every time

I didn't make any "aohhhhOOoOOO!!" noises

So Phil "aohhhhOOoOOO!!"s and you feel the need to send him chocolates and flowers afterwards?



And why did my Martin quotage above turn into Neen quotage?

Quote: Beautiful_World

because you deleted the middle bit of the post... where one of the /quote bits was...

trust gary to take out his bits

I've just listened to this...

...It is simulteneously the most hideous and amazing thing I have ever heard in my life. Good effort people
