  1. A Starbound Christmas parody of




    After spending a few days without internet access, I ended up writing 3 different parodies, but this was the only one I felt was suitable...
    It was Christmas eve guys,​
    In the depths of space,​
    I was cold and alone,​
    Wandering place to place,​
    A rock I landed on,​
    A planet full of fun,​
    I turned around to see,​
    A Floran watching me​
    She came up to me,​
    Beneath the Christmas tree,​
    Looked out into the sky,​
    And with a longing sigh,​
    She said "I want to see,​
    "The snow, the skies, the seas,​
    "I want to travel far",​
    And then she took my hand​
    Flying far through the stars,​
    My Floran and me,​
    Searching for adventure,​
    No fears had we,​
    When you first took my hand,​
    On that cold Christmas eve,​
    You promised you'd show me​
    The stars and the seas​
    The Human,​
    The Floran,​
    The evil old cap'n,​
    When the ship started crashing, he threw out the food,​
    The Apex were dancing,​
    The Robots were fasting,​
    Our ship got shot down,​
    By some Avian scum​
    And the guys from the development team,​
    Were working on the game,​
    As we all sat waiting here,​
    On Christmas day​
    Fighting Viorbs and Rats,​
    There were Aeroplane Bats,​
    As we ran through the caves to the underground sea,​
    Bad Moon almost caught us,​
    My Floran got nervous,​
    "But it's Christmas" I said, "So we'd better run fast"​
    And the guys from the development team,​
    Kept working on the game,​
    As we all keep waiting here,​
    On Christmas day​
    There's still so much to see,​
    Let's do it, you and me,​
    Let's go and see it all,​
    The trees, the Space Narwhals,​
    We'll build a space station,​
    And travel far from home,​
    We'll tour the galaxies,​
    With you I'm not alone​
    And Tiy and the development team,​
    Are still working on the game,​
    So we'll just sit waiting here,​
    On Christmas day​
    It turns out it's a lot harder to write a song with two themes, a "Starbound" song isn't too hard, neither is a "Christmas" song, but a "Starbound Christmas" song... well...
    And it seems really weird to be listening to (and recording) Christmas songs after Christmas., even if it is still within the twelve nights...

  2. Have a recording...
    To be honest, it's still kind of a WIP, and I'd appreciate any last minute feedback...


    I probably should have bought myself a pop filter and a half decent mic first, my headset wasn't designed to record music...
    I also hate to listen to my own singing, hope you guys don't :p


    Edit:
    Nope.
    Due to people (who must have been from here, the video was unlisted) being less than polite on youtube, I'm afraid I had to remove the link.
    Sorry, but you should blame the minority who decided to be jerks.

    Edit 2:
    I sneakily put the video back, don't tell anyone.

    Very well done my friend! If only I knew the tune. (Sorry probably wasn't around when it came out.)
    EDIT: Nevermind, I've now listened to it

    Maybe you could reupload and block comments?

  7. I'd completely forgotten you could do that :p
    It was kinda rushed when I uploaded it the first time...
    We'll see... I might sneakily edit it back in and not tell anyone :3
