Inspired by the forum post here: http://sea.battle.net/sc2/en/forum/topic/73167424 by the Blizzard Community Manager Daxxarri! We were surprised that nobody had recorded them yet, so we decided to do it ourselves! We ended up changing a lot of the lyrics because of rhyming or syllable issues, but we still give Daxxarri full credit for coming up with the idea, thank you very much!
Also a HUGE thanks to our stream viewers for helping us refine the lyrics, we love you guys! If anybody is curious and wants to join in the fun, our stream is at http://justin.tv/akagaming
And of course, shout-out to you all over at SCReddit for coming up with the meme, we love you guys! http://reddit.com/r/starcraft
Let's play in style, lets just cheese for a while Silver can wait while we're watching Day9 Hoping for the best but expecting some Thors Are you going to drop the nuke or not? Let us stay bronze or let us play forever We don't yet have mad skills but we never say never Sitting in a bunker, life is a short trip The upgrade's for the stimmed marine Can you imagine when this fight is won Turn our golden visors into the sun Praising our tactics we're getting prepared Music's playing from a medivac
Forever bronze, I don't want to be forever bronze Do you really want to play forever, forever forever Forever bronze, I don't want to be forever bronze Do you really want to play forever Forever bronze
Some are all-in, and some just always cheese Some make one unit that starts with a V Sooner or later that all will be gone Why don't they stay bronze? It's so hard to proxy gate and not get caught Don't want to die just like that Zealot Smurfs are just masters on low ladder And masters stay forever So many quick matches couldn't happen today So many games that we forgot to play So many marines are coming out of the queue Depots let them come through
Forever bronze, I don't want to be forever bronze Do you really want to play forever, forever forever Forever bronze, I don't want to be forever bronze Do you really want to play forever, forever forever Forever bronze, I don't want to be forever bronze Do you really want to play forever, forever forever Forever bronze, I will be forever
Very good job Andy. It's been a blast rewriting the lyrics with you and the other viewers. Your voice was better for the high notes compare to the pratice we had.
Hope you can still talk with your manly voice after that :p .

Haha thank you for your contributions Bashrai! And it turns out the only run of the night had the best high notes in it, which proves that it's almost impossible to get it if I don't do it on the first try haha, it's wayyyyy too high for me I hope I'll have my manly voice back, we'll have to see tomorrow on the stream! XD

It was actually much better then i thought it would be, you guys definitely did it justice.
Well... I added a post to that thread 6+ months on with a link to that article. Now I just need to see how much hate I get from the people on that server lol.

Nice song as well.
The OP of that thread is coincidentally still in bronze.

Also one of the first parodies of non-pop/-recent songs :D
Fly like Aiur (music sponsor of the NASL) is based on 'Straight to Hell' from The Clash which are not pop nor recent
Well its also been remixed by MIA VERY recently = where they got it I am sure. Speaking as they attempt to mimic the same female voice. MIA Paper Planes.
Just saying.
Also I loved this Forever Bronze parody thought it was pretty decent. Some of those high notes were a bit rough, but they would be for any male singer who isnt insanely talented. nice work still tho

Thank you! And yes, I am well aware of the strained high notes haha, I thought it added to the anguish I was feeling towards my fellow bronzies whilst singing it.

Hey thanks! And yes, we stream every night Thursday-Sunday, though Friday Saturday Sunday is mostly during the day into the late evening. So we stream for quite a bit!
Thanks for your continuing support everyone, more stuff on the way!
I was so happy when 1. I saw you were making more sc parodies 2. I saw the song was Forever Young by Alphaville, one of my favorite songs
The rhymes and lyrics in this one just didn't appeal to me, but hey I liked your other ones a lot, and hope you keep making them. In my opinion I prefer these types of songs much more than rap, so it's great that someone is making parodies with songs that I happen to like(Losing My Religion and Forever Young).
Thanks again for making these songs and also the mp3 downloads!

I respect your opinion, thank you for letting me know I am definitely going to continue with more of these kinds of songs instead of the "big name" songs.

Maybe this song will suit your fancy a little better? I never really intended this song to become popular, I sang it way out of my vocal range on purpose
