After a lot of delays, it's finally here, folks!
SPECIAL THANKS:
Snow Mexican for the guitar solo
Fentongoose for the thumbnail and "proofreading"
Mild Squirrel for the brief "Life is Precious" echo (Sorry, couldn't really fit anything from it in the anthem)
Unfortunately, the key is not very compatible with my voice and the lyrics were shit and it would've sounded trash anyways. So instead of boring lyrics, I throat sung for the main part of the anthem. However, the lyrics for the rap part are obviously still there.
The tune for the main part is from the Tuvan Anthem. Sounded really badass for us.
The tune for the rap part is from the Marathon track, [i]Rushing[/i].
Enjoy, folks. I'll keep this in #offtopicanthem in case you need to access it.
Rap lyrics below (The rap is cringe, I know, but trust me, it's entirely intentional):
[spoiler]B.net veteran, I'm a Bungie veteran
Been here since '04, call me a floodian
Got a limited edition of Marathon,
You wanna try it? You're gonna have to pay a ton
On the blood of our fathers, on the blood of our sons
Got 99 problems but a ban ain't one
99 alts, that's what I own
I completed all Halos on LASO
I got my Halo 3 emblem avatar
Used to be a Reachtard, not anymore
I'm a master troll, I'm a master troll
I'll b8 Destiny till it's no more
I'll shoot you up like I'm Master Chief
I'll slice you up like I'm the Arbiter
I spammed the most on Ginger Day
And I got bant, but that was my alt
Ban Deej, ban Deej, yuh
Ban Deej, ban Deej
Activate the Holy Rings,
Wipe out #Destiny
Ban Deej, ban Deej, yuh
Ban Deej, ban Deej
Activate the Holy Rings,
Glass their subforum with a beam[/spoiler]
Plz no ban ninjas, it's just a sonk

When I heard this, my heart litteraly soard forth from my chest. My mortal human frame could not contain the oceans of pride swelling within me. I was dead, while my heart flew with the pigeons and Great Crested Egrets, racing through the opaque mists of cumulonimbus clouds. I was alive, even in death.

I have to say it's pretty shit but quite catchy which is often the case 10 out of 10 for effort.
-
You're trying to tell me that you have a kazoo, and you haven't played any Dragon Ball Z music yet?

Edited by ZoniCat: 9/3/2017 2:06:49 AMI wouldn't call myself an offtopic veteran, only joined when destiny came out, so definitely not a floodian. But I've seen what this subforum has to offer, maybe not in it's entirety or exclusivity, and maybe not during it's prime, but I can wholeheartedly say that this song perfectly - and outstandingly shamelessly - captures what this little subforum, this little, cozy hovel of ours is all about.
