Hi Sayle,
the other day I was listening to "Ironic" by Alanis Morissette in the radio.
For those SC2 Newbies of you who weren't even born yet when the song came out:


I got the chorus stuck in my head thinking about my favorite caster. So I made my own version of the song:

I'm sorry in advance for your ears




Lyrics (original lines on top):


An old man turned ninety-eight
Flash's Winrate turns ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next Day
He plays Jaehoon next day and he can't win that game

It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
It's a nice word by Kiante

It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
It's an observer poppin' two seconds too late

Isn't it ironic...don't you think

Chorus:

It's like rain on your wedding Day
It's like sayle without a hunger for grapes

it's a free ride when you've already paid
it's a reaver that he micro'd ok

It's the good advice that you just didn't take
It's a ladder game that you awfully failed

Who would've throught...it figures
when your food count was bigger


Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to FE
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye
He leaves his main base with an early worker guy
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
He waited his whole damn early game to take that FE
And as the plane crashed down he thought
And as the peruvian all ins he thought
"Well isn't this nice..."

And isn't it ironic...don't you think

Repeat Chorus

It's like rain on your wedding Day
It's like sayle without a hunger for grapes

it's a free ride when you've already paid
it's a reaver that he micro'd ok

It's the good advice that you just didn't take
It's a ladder game that you awfully failed

Who would've throught...it figures
when your food count was bigger

Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Well SC has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything's okay and everything's going right

And life has a funny way of helping you out when
And SC has a funny way of helping you out when

You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up
In your face

A traffic jam when you're already late
A 5 pool when you're about to off gate
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
A Lurker line on your sunken break

It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
It's a tempest goon when your name is Light[alive]

It's meeting the man of my dreams
It's like meeting tossgirl
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And then meeting reach

And isn't it ironic...don't you think
A little too ironic...and yeah I really do think...

Repeat Chorus

It's like rain on your wedding Day
It's like sayle without a hunger for grapes

it's a free ride when you've already paid
it's a reaver that he micro'd ok

It's the good advice that you just didn't take
It's a ladder game that you awfully failed

Who would've throught...it figures
when your food count was bigger


Life has a funny way of my sneaking up on you
SC has a funny way of my sneaking up on you
Life has a funny, funny way of helping you out
SC has a funny way of my sneaking up on you

Helping you out



I hope you like it. It's a little thank you for everything :-)

This is extremely difficult to process, but I have a feeling it might be one of the future classics. ROFL at the picture. Otherwise pretty decent job on the lyrics and the awkward singing felt appropriate. 5/5

Bisu[about JD]=I was scared (laughs). The force emanating from his facial expression was so manly that I was even a little jealous.
