So, in a tradition I am completely making up, lets play the twist! but not like that. like this. take a christmas song and warp it, twist it, brutalize it into MD. points for making it fit your land. keeping the rhythym of the song the same. change the words to MD things/places. points for originalty molding it to md. and of course hearing your lovely voice singing/saying it. (Even if sung/said I need a copy of the lyrics)

Must be a seasonal song for the holidays (i.e christmas or an equivilent).

Must do the WHOLE song not just the chorus.

EXTENDED MUR WANTS MORE SINGING! Entries must be recieved before the 31 of this month.

For those of you who have the perfect song in mind, but can't find an acoustic only version and don't want to pay money for fancy tools, try this.
Audacity is free, and bonus - you can also use it to record your efforts ;)

Do we send it via PM, post it oorr? 

Posted preferably share your love of murmas :D

So we really have to SING? Or posting the lyrics will suffice?

It;d be great if it was sung or at least spoken but you can just post the lyrics if you are opposed to those.

So yea, I decided to make a fool of myself this year and sing a...dst style carol.

 

BEWARE! My voice is HORRIBLE!!

Forgot to add the original song:

Santa Claus is coming to town

 

Also, here are the lyrics to MY version :D

 

I'm hearing you scream
Get ready to cry
You'd better drop dead
You rude little guy!

DST is planning to kill



She's sharping her fang,
She's shining her gold,
She's gathering heat,
She thinks you'll be cold!


DST is planning to kill.

She chases you around,
She spells you more and more,
You try to run far and then hide
But you've already died!


I'm hearing you scream
Get ready to cry
You'd better drop dead
You rude little guy!

DST is planning to kill.

She watches you sleep
You've already guessed
Her name's DST
Cause that she does best

DST is planning to kill.

She knows you have been bad
She saw you use the bugs
She gathered all the logs(y)
So you better run and hide!

I'm hearing you scream
Get ready to cry
You'd better drop dead
You rude little guy!

DST is planning to kill.

Credits to this guy.

I have murdered (but will not be singing) Here We Come A Caroling. This seems to be Bethany Roberts version

 

[spoiler]

Here we go a-depleting

the herbs from every scene

Here we go a-grinding

on all the names we see.

 

Birds and trees will grow for you,

and the fenths that follow too

And Mur bless you and send you a Happy New Year

And Mur send you a Happy New Year

 

We are not the kids who scream

and throw cake on the floor,

But we do have Syrian

whose bear you will abhor

 

Birds and trees will grow for you,

and the fenths that follow too

And Mur bless you and send you a Happy New Year

And Mur send you a Happy New Year

 

The item list has been shifting,

common items galore

The marketplace is varied

with crit sales out the door

 

Birds and trees will grow for you,

and the fenths that follow too

And Mur bless you and send you a Happy New Year

And Mur send you a Happy New Year

 

The ghosts have all grown Santa beards-

their Christmas side on show

There’s people waiting on the tree

the tiny men have stowed

 

Birds and trees will grow for you,

and the fenths that follow too

And Mur bless you and send you a Happy New Year

And Mur send you a Happy New Year [/spoiler]

So yea, I decided to make a fool of myself this year and sing a...dst style carol.

 

BEWARE! My voice is HORRIBLE!!

so the one youre singing about is mrf?   : D

 

so the one youre singing about is mrf?   : D

Weeeeel...I added a personal message to MRF at the end buuut...

I am new so mine is probably very corny and I have no land  I wanted to at least give it a try though.  I can not sing nor speak the song at this time but maybe in the future I will at least speak lyrics if there is another chance to.  Original Christmas Carol I used as reference is Jingle Bells the easiest song for me to attempt to write to.   I am enjoying the creativity of everyone's entries.

 

 

 

Questing through the realm,

Action points going fast,

Clicking on everything,

How long are they going to last?

A fledgling never knows,

Until they give a try,

There is so much for them to see,

Unless they say bye-bye

 

MagicDuel, MagicDuel,

Adventure everywhere

Patience rules so keep your cool,

Don't quit or run off scared.

MagicDuel, MagicDuel,

Many places and things to find,

It's not what you expect to see,

Enjoy and expand your mind.

 

Creatures and Magic Spells,

Some Heat and Balance too,

Wherever you find your place here

Is entirely up to you.

Sometimes you may have to ask

For others to lend a hand,

But if you end up lost,

Return to No Man's Land.

 

MagicDuel, MagicDuel,

Adventure everywhere

Patience rules so keep your cool,

Don't quit or run off scared.

MagicDuel, MagicDuel,

Many places and things to find,

It's not what you expect to see,

Enjoy and expand your mind.

Ok, here's a horrible acoustic, ACKapella rended edition of "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen", by yours truly.
Yes, I dressed the part, so you'd know it's me.     Don't judge.  :P 

Could not find a friend willing to enable my insanity, so had to prop up the tablet and try in the largest area of hte apartment I could, Sorry for bad A/V quality.   Below is the Video and Lyrics.

[log="Lyric transcript"]

Mur rest ye merry, MD’ers
Let nothing you dismay
Remember, keep your VE up
Or Mirrir Rit all day
To save us all from Eon’s power
When heads comp is today
O Attacklock and Movelock enjoy,
spellspam enjoy
O Attacklock and Movelock enjoy,



In GoE, in MDP,
This crowd has gathere’d round
And duels with random stranger
Repeat that combat Sound
Awaits the Tree and presents come
Upon is Murmas morn
O questing and dueling enjoy,
Dueling enjoy
O questing and dueling enjoy,



From Mur and Chewett and Dude2
A coded Angel came;
And unto certain MD’ers
Brought tidings of the same:
How that in GoE quite Soon
Some presents to your Name.
O presents and gifts to all enjoy,
Gifts to enjoy
O presents and gifts to all enjoy,



"Fear not," said Confused Sa-anta,
"Let nothing you affright,
This day is you all receive something
Throughout this Murmas Night,
To all who’s AD is quite high
And even idler’s might."
O presents and gifts to all enjoy,
Gifts to enjoy
O presents and gifts to all enjoy,



The active folks these tidings
Rejoiced much in their mind,
And left their crits a-feeding
For heat and wins to grind:
Then sacrificed them for their fenths
And Depleted resources find.
O Tools to harvest, weekly grab and bind,
Grab and tools bind
O Tools to harvest, weekly grab and bind,



And when they returned to GoE
Where gazebo now stood Tree,
They found they could not get presents,
If they were low AD;
And arguing, complaints and flames
All through the crowd did see.
O give us stuff, we want it all for free,
Toys for Me!
O give us stuff, we want it all for free,



Now to the angiens heard their call,
All you within this place,
Each mindpower and your Friendlist too
A PM you embrace;
This blessed time of Murmas
Your anger does deface.
So, new jail time the worst of you enjoy,
Good folks get toys
But the worst of you, some dst time enjoy….

ok, I cannot believe I did it too :P

 

lyrics are in the video.

 

https://vimeo.com/149521758

Only lyrics I'm afraid due to current computational traumas. Song is from nightmare before xmas called what's this.

 

Lyrics

[spoiler]What's this what's this
There's questing everywhere
What's this
A Make it snow link there
What's this
I can't believe my eyes I must be dreaming
Wake up Zlei, this is so rare!
What's this!

What's this What's this
The arguing has gone
What's this
There's people singing songs
What's this
The scenes aligned with tiny men all laughing
Everybody seems so active
Has the cake gone radio-active?
What is this?
What's this!

There's children drawing pictures
Instead of drawing swords
They're busy having dinner
and running through co-ords
The GOE's been pilfered
Oh I can't believe my eyes
and in my hooves I feel the warmth that's coming from bonfires

Oh Look, What's this
They're sending out PMs, to post
Snail mail cards
Inspired!
They're gathering around to hear a riddle
Roasting pickles on a fire
What's this!

What's this, Oh my
The GOE's a tree
How odd
and who would ever think
and why
They're covering it with tiny little gifs and pics
Using image editing tricks
and there's a smile on everyone
So now correct me if I'm wrong
This looks like fun x 2
Oh could this be Magic Duel?
What's this?!

Oh My, What now?
The admins are asleep
but look
there's nothing to resolve!
No hacks
No abusers here to scream and scare them or ensnare them
Only awesome questy things
Secure inside their cube land

What's this!

The quarrels are all missing
and the murders can't be found
and in their place there seems to be good feeling all around
Instead of screams I swear I can hear music in the air
The smell of cakes and candy are absolutely everywhere

The sights the sounds
They're everywhere and all around
They're never felt so good before
This empty place inside MD is filling up
We simply cannot get enough
I want it oh I want it oh I want it for our own
I've got to know I've got to know
What is this place that I have found!
What is this???

Christmas Duel? Hmm...[/spoiler]

You have been warned.

 

Murdered Night (by Aeo) - Botched version of Silent Night.

Lyrics

[spoiler]

Silent Night, sunny Night,

Oh they cheer, wait for Mur.

Round the tree, peasant and knight,

Drunken and joyfully they slur:

"May Mur's pockets be deep!

May Mur's pockets be deep."

 

Silent Night, moonless Night,

Oh they think they've been good.

Fools they are, Mur has just sticky goo

Run while you can, he has brought an axe.

He is wearing a forced smile!

He is wearing a forced smile.

 

Screaming Night, bloody Night,

All these bones, all these skulls.

It is time to grab some shovels,

All Necrovians harvesting bones:

"Mur is so generous!

Mur is so generous."

[/spoiler]

Lyrics:

Dashing through the snow

tumbling all the way

Over bob we go

Rolling all the way!

Sparkling gifts around

Making sirits bright

What fun its to laugh and sing

Be greedy all the night!

 

Jingle bells Jingle Bells

Jingle all the way

Oh what fun it is to ride

a piss piss open sleigh!!

 

Jingle bells Jingle bells

Jingle all the way!

Oh what fun it is to laugh

tumbling all the way!

 

A day or two ago

A story I must tell

I stood in the gazebo

And nommed a candy pelt!

 

My little drachorn roared

A huge little bow he wore

My archer picked a marshmallow

and instead got a smore!

 

Jingle bells Jingle bells

Jingle all the way

Oh what fun it is to nom

a red coloured little candeh!

 

Jingle Bells Jingle Bells

Jingle all the way!

Oh what fun it is to nom

a warm little smore instead!

 

PS: MRF I DID THIS ONLY FOR YOU :P I WOULD HAVE NEVER EVER DONE IT OTHERWISE :P
