Hey there, here's a little song about Battle.net 2.0.
I wrote it like a week ago, by now I feel it's become rather pointless since blizzard is well aware of the issue and dont need some idiot to take a great song and turn it into shit for that but oh well I still felt like recording it today because why not.

I'm sure you all know the original by Lennon, my version sounds a bit darker because my guitar is in D minor open tuning right now and I'm too lazy to change that to play it like the original.
Didn't put much effort into any of this, was even too lazy to use a metronome to get the timing right for the recording, which is very noticeable right before the chorus where the rhythm is completely fucked up.
But oh well, I'm way too lazy to correct or rerecord anything.
I hope noone's ears bleed out.




lyrics:
+ Show Spoiler +

Imagine theres no chat rooms
its easy if you try
no op irc below us
only a friends list to find
Imagine all the people
with no place to talk


imagine no lan latency
it isnt hard to do
takes long to kill or die when
your army takes ages to move
Imagine all the people
playing games in lag

Chorus:
you may say I'm a dreamer
but im not the only one
maybe some day youll join us
activision and blizzard will rule the world as one


Imagine no cross region play
I wonder if you can
Our need for greed is your hunger
tough shit, just buy another game
Imagine all the people
playing without their friends

Chorus

I might have said this to you before on a different song but your voice reminds me so much of Tragically Hip. It's good. Was it you with the firefly song that people said your voice was bad? If so, they're wrong.

Sick lyrics too. Well done bro

heh I remember looking up tragically hip last time you wrote that. I'll be honest, I didn't really see the similarity but I'll take it as a compliment, that dude has a very good voice

glad you like it, thx bro!

Yeah, theres something I can't put my finger on. Just kinda the tone I guess. You sing quite a bit lower than that guy though.

Clever.


Idea- more people need to write their posts as songs, it would clean up the forums a lot and sounds nice to boot.

By the time the last expansion for SC2 is out, you'll have enough material for a greatest hits album

heh, when I do my own acoustic stuff I actually usually sing higher than in the SC2 songs I've done. Often about as high as I can get without using falsetto (which isn't very high though :p)

I'm admittedly kinda jealous of people with slightly higher voices. Usually I can just do that high E. I just want that G and I'd be happy

I can do a mean Johnny Cash though

Edit: I'd love to hear your "real" voice. Record one of your normal songs sometime?

That's the plan...I'm having serious problems with getting stuff done though cause when I do serious songs I want everything to be perfect and I never manage to do that ^^
But it's not like this isnt my "real" voice :p it doesnt sound too different in any of my real songs, I think this recording is pretty representative, more so than abuseful day/the fireflies song.
But a week ago I met an old friend at a party who offered to produce me so maybe I'll just work with him as soon as I have 5,6 songs I'm really comfortable with.

Hahaha that would be awesome! Seriously, though, you have a really good voice, you should do a song for the tsl 3 whenever that is, would be totally sick!

Nice and nifty lyrics. You've a great voice to! You should totally sign up for next "American-Idol( I guess that would be Germany Idol)", and perform this song, that will definitely catch blizzards attention.

Neat, but I had a hard time sometimes making out what you said, working on improving clarity would be nice. I liked your lyric choice a lot.

i'll sign that.

you could have worked a little bit on the lyrics part, guitar sounds just fine, maybe some more work on changing from choruses to verses.

great job.

Eh compared to it sounds kinda bad and nothing like the original, oh well. But when heard as a variation not that bad.

But mad props for yet another voice to the chorus. Blizzard I still hope you take notice of your horrible new policies and change them. Now people even start writing songs about it
