Telltale Games

JedExodus · 04/29/2011, 05:18 am

So a good few folks around here play instruments so i'd thought it'd be fun if we all brought something to the table and tried to put a song together.

Putting it all together will be a bit of a nightmare but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. The very least we'll get from this is that we'll get to bounce a few ideas off each other and gave a bit of craic

For now we don't have to worry about recording quality and tempo cos we're esentially just brainstorming

Anyway, here's my rough proposal for a theme, I dunno if anyone would wanna work with anything in this vein but it's nice to hear feedback!

Likewise post your ideas, every style and instrument is welcome and hopefully between us all we can get something really nice going on

Wow! Thats was awesome.
(I'm still far from that level! :'( )

As for lyrics, for some reason the song wanted me sing about Duke Nukem rising from the grave.
(Since that was the last miracle I've ever seen! XD)

RingmasterJ5 · 04/29/2011, 05:54 am

Maybe we could base the song around TTG or its forums?

Rich, if you and Nate were to ever combine forces...well let me explain it sciency like.

Haha, here's the first thing that popped into my head. Doubt it does the great man justice

We'll do something good some day

doodinthemood · 04/29/2011, 08:33 am

I'm a rad pianist. Blast over some chords and I'll wig along with something.

[stops talking like a douche]

I'll gladly join in this

Edit: Quickly set up my mobile and worked out De Singe's theme from what I could remember of it.

This could be fun to watch as it develops

You could make a song about Telltale Forum Members.

We have to do a song about Dashing now.

Complete with bad puns and melodrama like this:

"OH DASHING!! YOU WERE SMASHING!
BUT NOW WE'RE CRASHING!
since the day you went away,
it just hasn't BEEEENNN THE SAAAHAAAAMMMEE!!

*the music dies down*

the worst part..... you didn't say.... goodbye...

*music gradually builds up*

GOODBYE!

GOODBYYYYEEEEIIIIEEEEIIIII!!!!

*music dies down*

*whispers gooodbye.....*

I whipped up a quick song about Rather Dashing.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WveqcHHtzDU
I cannot sing, and you cannot hear the words anyway, so here's the lyrics for you to sing along

I’m so confused
Are telltale’s games hard or not?
And that post above me
He got something wrong, but I can’t tell what

The forums are lame now
I hope it’s a phase
There’s not been a flame war
In 36 days

We know something’s missing
And likely for long
It seems for the moment
Rather Dashing’s gone…

YEAH! Lets make an Album about Dashing.

We'll call it

"Dashing Dashed Off! (and we want him back!)"

Here is your original work ruined by a moron

How about a song titled 'Everyone fancies Puzzlebox'?

Hehe! When people play it its should say "She's already taken!" then a Telltale Rendition of "Never Gonna Give You Up!" plays.

Astro Gnocci · 04/29/2011, 04:34 pm

Way too lazy to actually pay attention to what's being said or to check the sound sampl (i'll do that after i get some sleep, tho), but if i can find some way to record myself decently i might provide some crappy bass or guitar lines

And what's that about dashing being gone

?
First time i come back here after a while and i'm reading stuff about him everywhere

Alcoremortis · 04/29/2011, 04:46 pm

This is awesome! Also, if you need a back up singer or something at any point...well you know where to find me! And I know where to find singers!

The Space Sphere · 04/29/2011, 08:47 pm

Include lyrics about space, please.

I'm the best at space.

Sounds great but it really needs to be done to the tune of "Want you gone"

For the sake of the children!

We'll have to put that in the Hymdal for the Church of Rather Dashing. Oh, and that's a thing. Check out the religion thread.

doodinthemood · 04/30/2011, 05:41 am

I've given "everyone fancies puzzlebox" a shot.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hzIdSpRrbI
Once again, you cannot really hear me (and I still cannot sing) so here are the lyrics for you to sing along:

It might be how she is
Never unkind
It might be her wit in
“Whatever’s on your mind”

It might be the way she
always helps out
But one thing is certain
Without a doubt

That whatever it is

Everyone fancies puzzlebox
From her snorkel down to her socks
Yeah everyone fancies puzzlebox
She’d even look good with LeChucken pox

It might be her charm,
her grace, her style
It might be her jokes
that make it worthwhile

It might be how she
Never does wrong
It might be the way she’ll
Delete this song

But one thing I know

Is everyone fancies puzzlebox
From her snorkel down to her socks
Everyone fancies puzzlebox
She’d even look good with LeChucken pox
Look, she posted, I bet it rocks
Her DVD edition is deluxe
She smells nicer than a wild ox
Yeah Everyone fancies puzzlebox

Edit: Chords are Cmaj7, A7, Dmin7, G7, Cmaj7, A7, Dmin7, Gaug
C, Caug, C6, C7, F, Faug, F6, F7, Bb, Ab7, G7
C6, Amin7, Dmin7, G7
The final chord is C7 with added 13 and 11

RetroVortex · 04/30/2011, 10:35 am

How about:
Banang: The Musical!

3 whole acts of Banang!

(At least a Banang song!)

......

Banang!!

I'll have to listen tomorrow, my speakers aren't plugged in and I could not be arsed at the moment. I had an idea for it but I was at work all day today so it never got done, it was like a tribute to 'I've been everywhere' by Johnny Cash, haphazardly rhyming off the names of forum members who all fancy P-Box. No doubt yours is better.

Be prepared for me to dumb down your lovely chords with my bag of cheap guitar tricks
