Is it me or was something up with the vocals? Like there was an H added to every other word or something.
Cute dog.

Any chance of mentioning the dice game Yahtzee in connection to the Man himself? One thing is for sure, people get excited whenever they see either one.

Okay. I have an idea for the yahtzee song. It's quite fast-paced at times, but upon further thought I realised that'd be rather suitable.

---

Dear Yahtzee,
How're you doing on the other side of the world from me?
Across the seven seas?
And the oceans too?
Anyway, how are you?
Dear Yahtzee,
Have you gone to those anger management sessions I told you to?
Are they working for you?
Are they wearing you down?
Are you wearing a frown?
Dear Yahtzee.

CHORUS

But I can tell
Under all that cyncisim and aggression
You're probably a really nice person
And I think we'd get along (maybe)
Oh please don't take this wrong
Dear Yahtzee.

---

I couldn't think of other verses but it's a start, can be edited of course to work better.

Nifty said:
Cut your grass, you damned hippie.
LOL

As for Yahtzee - sing about the sensitive, vulnerable side underneath that near impenetrable bile-coated exterior. The story of a man who was somehow so slighted that he traveled to the other side of the world to both take out his frustrations, yet still make a living.

The video should include you being surrounded by numerous Wiimotes and plenty of come hither glances. Throw in a crocodile or two for the Aussie reference.

I'd just like to say that i'd never thought i'd love your singing this much :D first time was more of a "yeah why not" but your songs are very touching, and for someone that regularly delves into realms a la "gears of war" i think it takes some effort to get me that far.
thank you very much, and please continue :)

Well I haven't thought of anything lyrical...

but for the video, you can do a Yahtzee-styled video instead of filming yourself this time. That would be interesting. :)

BTW, I forgot to include how much I liked this new song. Really really charming and cute.

Looking forward to the epic win :)

How about:
Some say your the Devil, surrounded by imps.
Disliking Peggle, and all the mainstream chimps.

That's quite a unique looking time machine (if that is what it was meant to be)! After seeing that video, I'm tempted to dig the clothes horse back out the cupboard and try it myself. Amazing what you can do with the average household item....

Thanks Ms. Rebecca for another video!

Anyone want to give there thoughts on the meaning of the song. I am having trouble relating all the lyrics.


Preemptive Thanks!

Maybe you could make a song about singing? About writing and performing.
Maybe you could make a song answering popular interview questions and really think about where in the album this song should be.

Just rock up to the Mana Bar in Brisbane in a little black dress if you want to get the guys attention.

Ok, so here are some Yahtzee lyrics I can come up with off the top of my head. You'll probably have to trim them or otherwise make them suit music:

With maniacal glee and antipathy
He delights me
With his love of tea and pickle
I just wish his heart wasn't so fickle

Sure he's got his likes
Dark apartments, half lives
Wooden planks and portal technology
But could he like anyone like me?

Oh Yahtzee
You have a silly hat
Oh Yahtzee
You know where you're at
Making silly videos
Like a fiendish impressario

Why do you talk so fast?
Don't you want this moment to last?
Press X not to die
Grab your jetpack and fly

Oh Yahtzee
You have a silly hat
Oh Yahtzee
You have a mighty moustache
and a beard that's weird
But it suits you.
It suits you anyway.

White figures against a yellow screen
They dance and prance and sing
About all of the things you hate.
Your fiendish wit cuts like a sword
You rule the Web with your cruel word.

Oh Yahtzee
You have a silly hat
Oh Yahtzee
You should know that
Love is not a quick time event
It takes time to understand that
It will all be OK.

You know what I see
When I use a salt-covered teddy
To find a hidden room in a mansion
That I'm trapped in
I see bad gameplay and unclear objectives
It gives me a sense of perspective
Why'd I have to drain that pool anyway?

Oh Yahtzee
You have a pretty nice hat
Please tell me that under that
Oh Yahtzee
You think of me.
Oh Yahtzee
You don't criticize me
Oh Yahtzee
That you're really real.

I feel both very proud and deeply ashamed that I actually did this.

Better than your other songs in my opinion. Sounds like you broke your mold for it.

Glad you did!

As for Yahtzee?

How about a song about a eccentric english person who was forced to Aussie land for his obviously criminal critiques on gaming today. 8)

There is being a devils advocate and there is being Yahtzee. One is considered journalism, the other entertainment.
