We didn't start th fire WoT style

[konkoivu]

Afteer searching youtube for almost an hour i didn't find a version of Billy Joels We Didn't Start the Fire or wheel of time universe. It is time to correct that mistake. I have to admit that i don't have any musical scills but if someone has it's just great. I had the idea calling the song we didn't start the tarmon gaidon. Any ideas should it be from Breaking to the books or should it the song take place on the timeline of the books? Feel free to brainstorm or brainfart!

[moratcorlm]

I'd like to see that mistake corrected too, but it was written too long ago for balefiring Billy Joel to be an option. No, wait, that doesn't seem to be what you're... OH GOD WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?

[Nooska]

hehe

 

I'm too tired to make an entire song go here, but will probably do so in teh coming days;

For now the first chorus;

 

 

We didnt invent balefire

It was always burning

since the wheels first turning

We didn't start the battle

no we didn't like it

but we tried to fight it

[Evoke]

Heh.

[randsc]

I'm going to put my eyes out with a quill.

[moratcorlm]

See, you put that god-Forsaken song in my head.

 

Narg and Myrddraal, Mili Skane, Tarwin's Gap, Padan Fain

Dead Someshta, dead Balthamel, dead Ba'alzamon.

Lord/Wolfbrother indecision, Mirror worlds, Min has visions,

Aran'gar's new, Osan'gar, Lews Therin Telamon.

 

Toman Head, a'dam, Liandrin, Sheriam

Nynaeve for Aes Sedai, did Verin just tell a lie?

King Aemon and Eldrene, Adeleas, Vandene

Ingtar (Darkfriend), High Lord Turak, Ishamael: goodbye

 

We didn't start the fire

It was always burning

Since the Wheel's been turning

We didn't start the fire

No we didn't light it

But we tried to fight it

 

Alviarin, Mazrim Taim, Nynaeve's trapped and so's Elayne

Aviendha, Bain and Chiad, Gaul and Rhuarc

Samon quickly gone, Again Ba'alzamon

Turns out he wasn't the Great Lord of the Dark

 

Here ends Siuan's reign, but she escapes with Logain

Trollocs back in Emond's Field; Perrin marries Faile

Callandor holds Stone, snakes tell Mat where to go

Here's Amys; here's the Waste; trouble in Tanchico

 

CHORUS

 

Couladin, 'ghedien, Lanfear's gift's Asmodean

Aiel Car'a'carn tells what he saw as Charn

Egwene learns World of Dreams; Mat's hanged for memories

Forerunners, Cantorin, prepare a new invasion

 

Shaido reach Jangai Pass, Gawyn is a dumbass

Morgase is Compelled, Caemlyn's where Rahvin dwells

Graendal, Sammael: who murdered Jasin Natael?

Salidar takes Siuan in, followed by Gareth Bryne

 

CHORUS

 

Demandred, Shayol Ghul, let the Lord of Chaos rule

Dyelin, Cairhien, Taim teaching men saidin

 

Moiraine 'dead' out near the docks, the Black Ajah get Rand boxed,

Not missed, nor seen; Egwene is Amyrlin

 

Dobraine, Sorilea, Desaine false-flag double-deal

Dumai's Wells, blackcoat-quelled, Taim says kneel or be knelt.

 

CHORUS

 

Romanda and Lelaine, to Ebou Dar with Elayne

Sea Folk, Lan's back, cour'sovra, attack

Cyndane, Cadsuane, Moridin, liberated Illian

Using the Bowl of the Winds, now to Andor for the Kin

 

Seanchan Return, Dain Bornhald, damane freed, Tuon's bald,

Crazy Rand, dying land, Throne claimed by Trakand,

Saidin syphon, Mashadar, Rebels under martial law,

Crazy boring Shaido wars, I can't take it anymore

 

CHORUS

 

We didn't start the fire

But when we are gone

Will it still burn on, and on, and on, and on...

[Sid]

[Myrenna]

Moratcorlm...

 

*applause*

[dscott8]

Hmmm... could this be the overture to Wheel of Time: The Musical?

[Ozzie_aiel]

Damn! Some people have too much time on their hands!

 

Freakin cool though :biggrin:

[A2597]

....whow....

[Shimmer]

Brilliant

We gonna see someone sing it on youtube to music?

[Talmanes]

That is seriously epic! This song needs to be made!

God I love the discussion forums!

[charis sedai]

Wheel of Time: the musical. This is my purpose in life!

[Talmanes]

I'm seriously considering making this song...too bad I can't sing.

Morat are you planning on doing this? If not can I use you're amazing lyrics?

Love it.

 

Thanks for that.

[hotpocket2006]

I lawl'd so hard, I almost spit out my water over my laptop. Bravo.

 

Wheel of Time: the musical. This is my purpose in life!

 

Who would you play CJ, for surely there couldn't be a musical or any kind of play without you!

[Aiyen kin Leary]

Bravo, bravo, bravo! That is AWESOME! Kind of reminds me of a WoT version of "I am the very model of a modern major-general" that Emu on the Loose posted a while back. It was great too, though I don't remember all of it.

[Aiyen kin Leary]

Listening to the actual song you got the rhythms perfectly! Light, that's well done.

[dapianoplay3r]

Can you actually record this for all of us to hear?

[TylerRVG]

Well, that was quite a bump, dapiano.

 

The last post before yours is a month away to being two years old!

[dapianoplay3r]

It was linked to me in relation to the social faire this year.

 

But now that you tell me I feel like this

[phoenixtrinity]

As a huge fan of the original song, I must say seeing the WoT applied to it and made into its own lyrics is AMAZING. Nicely done.

[Asmodeanisdemandread]

"Demandred shayol ghul, let The Lord of Choas Rule"

priceless

 

I lol'ed so hard just then
