Take a song and "X-wingize" it...

By Ribann, in X-Wing

I'll start:

Slipknot "Psychosocial"

"PsychoCelchu"
I made my move and I want shots
So slippery - roll - it doesn't hit
The dice are not so vibrant
The positioning, the sickening
A-wing test pilot rocks
Pseudo Soontir Fel perversion
Go screw your arcs, go fly away
Then call your actions with all the evades you'll need
Closing in, getting stuck again
I'm done! It has begun! I am the only one!
[Chorus:]
And my mods will kill you all...
Throw yourselves against the 'roid
But no one else can see
The preservation of the A-wing in me
PsychoCelchu! [6x]
There are cracks in the move you made
But where the ion missed
The decisions have gone bad
This is nothing new, but when I've killed it all
The dice was all I had
Who needs another roll?
We could start over
Just target lock me and hope for the best
Now there's only me to kill
Hard to hit, F.M.L.
I think you're done. Now I'm the only one!
[Chorus]
PyschoCelchul! [6x]
The limits of the IMPS!
Fake anti-Falcon lie - (PyschoCelchul!)
I tried Outmaneuver but - (PyschoCelchul!)
Your Hull Upgrades are giving out - (PyschoCelchul!)
Can't stop a killing idea - (PyschoCelchul!)
If it's hunting season - (PyschoCelchul!)
Is this what you want? - (PyschoCelchul!)
I am your killing blow!

Push it to the limit

Walk along the saber's edge

Don't boost past and don't get dead

And you can hit it

...and I'm done.

You wanna fly Hobbie

You wanna Col. Vessery

You wanna CR90

You better work *****

To the tune of Let it Go (Re-named to "Barrel Roll"):

Barrel Roll!

Barrel Roll!

Not in your arc anymore.

Barrel Roll!

Barrel Roll!

Your ship placement is so poor!

And there you'Il stand,

As I spin away,

Let the game rage on...

Range one never bothered me anyway!

Just crank up Iron Maiden's "Aces High."

Done.

To the tune of Bon Jovi's "Livin' On A Prayer".

"Rollin' On A Prayer"

In a galaxy far away, not so long ago

Biggs was out walkin' the dogs
Bringing up the rear
He's down on his luck
it's tough, so tough

Imps been shootin' at him all day
Gets shots where he can
He's dancing through the fray
for love, for love

Biggs says, "I've gotta hold on to what I've got.
It doesn't make a difference if I make it or not.
We've got each other and that's a lot.
For love we'll give it a shot."

[Chorus:]
Whoa, a close one there
Whoa, rollin' on a prayer
Take a Focus and you'll make it - I swear
Whoa, rollin' on a prayer

Bogies on Biggs' six o-clock, hot
Rollin' at Range 1
Biggs used to talk that smack
so tough, it's tough

Rookie sees Biggs get blown away
When he cries at the sight
Dagger whispers
"Rookie, it's okay, 'twas fate..."

They've gotta hold on to what they've got
It doesn't make a difference if Biggs makes it or not
They've got each other and that's a lot
For love they'll give it a shot

[Chorus]

Rollin' on a prayer!!!

[Figrin D'an solo]

They've gotta hold on with Biggs or not
Biggs lived for the fight now they're down one ship slot

[Chorus twice and fading...]

Now look at them rebels that's the way you do it
You play the focus on the HWK
That ain't workin' that's the way you do it
Target Locks for nothin' and evades for free
Now that ain't workin' that's the way you do it
Lemme tell ya them guys ain't dumb
Maybe get a blank on your attack dice
Maybe get a blank with Ten Numb

We gotta install Fire Control Systems
Proton Torpedo deliveries
We gotta move these Targeting Computers
We gotta move these Junky YT's

See the little wookie with the earring and the makeup
Yeah buddy that's his own hair
That little wookie got his own space feighter
That little wookie he's a millionaire

We gotta install Fire Control Systems
Proton Torpedo deliveries
We gotta move these Targeting Computers
We gotta move these Junky YT's

I shoulda learned to barrel-roll my Tie Fighter
I shoulda learned to remember evade tokens
Look at Kath Scarlet, she got it stickin' in the camera
Man we could have some fun
And he's up there, what's that? Ewokii noises?
Bangin' on the helmets like a chimpanzee

That ain't workin' that's the way you do it
Get your Target Locks for nothin' get your focus for free

We gotta install Fire Control Systems

Proton Torpedo deliveries
We gotta move these Targeting Computers
We gotta move these Junky YT's

From the perspective of one player to his 2v2 teammate.

We're no rookies to X-Wing

You know the rules

And so do I

A full TIE squadron's what I'm

Thinking of

You wouldn't get this from

Any other guy

I just wanna tell you how I'm flying

Gotta make you understand

Never gonna give you up

Never gonna let you down

Never gonna fly around

And desert you

Never gonna make you cry

Never gonna say goodbye

Never gonna lose a TIE

And hurt you

Cuz I felt like making one that was less of a joke. (Also, Never Gonna Give You Up is a good song. No, seriously, I'm not joking.)

To the tune of "Do you wanna build a snowman?" Also from Frozen.

Do you wanna build a Squadron?

Come on let's go and play

I never play you anymore

Come out the door

It's like you've quit the game

We used to be best buddies

And now we're not

I wish you would tell me why

Do you wanna build a Squadron?

It doesn't have to be a Squadron

Go away Groggy!

Okay bye

Sung to the tune of The Beach Boys "Little Old Lady From Pasadena".

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwtVpOU_als

It's the little old lady from Corellia

The little old lady from Corellia

Go granny, go granny, go granny go

Has a pretty little flower bed of white Mycosia

Go granny, go granny, go granny go

But parked in her rickety old dock

Is a brand new shiny red super stock Hawk

And everybody's saying that there's nobody meaner

Than the little old lady from Corellia

She flies real fast and she flies real hard

She's a real terror on the Kessel Run

It's the little old lady from Corellia

If you see her on the Run don't try to chase her

Go granny, go granny, go granny go

You may have a go but you'll never catch her

Go granny, go granny, go granny go

She's gonna get shot at sooner or later

'Cause she can't keep her foot off the accelerator

And everybody's saying that there's nobody meaner

Than the little old lady from Corellia

She flies real fast and she flies real hard

She's a real terror on the Kessel Run

It's the little old lady from Corellia

Go granny, go granny, go granny go

Go granny, go granny, go granny go

The TIEs come to chase her from parsecs around

But she'll get to range one and shoot 'em down

And everybody's saying that there's nobody meaner

Than the little old lady from Corellia

She flies real fast and she flies real hard

She's a real terror on the Kessel Run

It's the little old lady from Corellia

Go granny, go granny, go granny go

Go granny, go granny, go granny go

Go granny, go granny, go granny go

Go granny, go granny, go granny go

Here is the video you want to have playing when you follow along with the following lyrics:
Let's, play!
Hear the sound of the rolling dice
Coming down like a Vader crew card crit!
The shields!
The ones who died without a chance!
Hear the TIES blocking all my moves!
To a plan called "Screw you too!" (Hey!)
And lose, the actions you thought to spend this round....!
I beg to cloak and roll from all the low PS skill
This is the undoing of the rest of your list!
On ACD!
Roll the all the blanks it makes me smile
Another RGI has PTL'd
To find, my turrets have another shot!
Can I get another reroll? (Reroll!)
There's a Predator EPT yet to fire (Hey!)
A blank, rerolled to give me a crit!
I beg to cloak and roll from all the low PS skill
This is the undoing of the rest of your list!
On ACD!
(Play!)
(Let's play!)
"The Troll WonderWAAAGH has the floor!"
Hey Ribann you think you're a troll?
No one can top me on my posts!
I'll harass you till the end of time!
You starting threads I'll be sure to post!
Bang bang goes the ban hammer!
Report all the casuals that don't agree!
Trolling posts, setting fires!
It's not a way we approve!
Just cause (hey, hey, hey), just cause, because Ribann rules!
I beg to cloak and roll from all the low PS skill
This is the undoing of the rest of your list!
I beg to cloak and roll from all the low PS skill
This is the undoing of the rest of your list!
This is our meta with ACD!

Maarek's Lament:

I wanna be the very best
Like no-one ever was
To kill Rebels is my real test
Pleasing Vader is my cause
I will fly across the field
Banking far and wide
For each Advanced to understand
The power that's inside
Chorus
TIE Advanced!(Gotta kill 'em)
It's you and me
I know it's my destiny
TIE Advanced!
Ooh, you're my best friend
In a world we must defend
TIE Advanced!(Gotta kill 'em)
Our hearts so true
Our courage will pull us through
You teach me and I'll teach you
TIE Advanced!
Gotta kill 'em, gotta kill 'em all!
Yeah
Gotta kill 'em all!
Every Falcon along the way
With courage I will face
I will battle every day
To claim my rightful place
Come with me, the time is right
There's no better team
Arm in arm we'll win the fight
It's always been our dream
Chorus
Gotta kill 'em all!!!!!!

This. It would help for teh lulz

I liked including the youtube link for easy listening/reading along with the posted lyrics.

I turn like a rock and then I take a target lock

I have to fly like a fugitive to save the life I live

I'm gonna be Flying like a Y-Wing with Ion (repeat)

Flying Y-Wing Ion

I'm on the run but I ain't got no gun

See they building a Death Star

So they fighting civil war

And they say I'm Flying like a Y-Wing with Ion

Flying like a Y-Wing with Ion,

Flying Y-Wing Ion


I turn like rock, (flying and you flying)

I take a target lock, flying like a fugitive)

I had to fly like a fugitive just to save the life I live

I'm gonna be Flying like a Y-Wing with Ion (repeat)

Flying Y-Wing Ion, Flying Y-Wing Ion, Flying Y-Wing Ion

Flying like a Y-Wing with Ion, Flying like a Y-Wing with Ion

Flying like a Y-Wing with Ion


Flying like a Y-Wing with Ion



Defenders! Screaming across the skies!

Imperials wage their battle to destroy the evil forces of the Rebellion

Defenders! K-turning on a dime

Defenders! Screaming 'cross the skies!

Defenders!


Transformers of course.

And here's another from those lovely saturday mornings:

Thundering across the stars to save the universe from the Empire. Luke searches for his Yoda to learn the Jedi Force and lead his Rebel Alliance to victory over the massive armies of Vader. X-Wings explode into battle – Rebels Strike!
There’s a power that comes from deep inside of you
‘Cause every day you’re reaching toward the light
And you know there’s a long long way ahead of you
But when your wings get you there,
Things will turn out right!
Just keep ‘em turning, don’t stop ‘em banking
The fire is on–Rebel X-Wings!
Battle lasers burning, S-foils are moving– Rebel X-Wings
Rebel X-Wings!
Cause we can just keep ‘em turning, don’t stop ‘em banking
The fire is on–Rebel X-Wings!
Battle lasers burning, S-foils are moving– Rebel X-Wings
Rebel X-Wings!

I'm really flattered to know that I've made such an impact in someone's life that they write songs about me. Thank you, thank you. :D

This... is a bad topic for me.

Howlrunner, a love song.
Why do TIES
Suddenly appear?
Every time, you are near?
Just like me
They love to be
Close to you
Why are rebels
Exploding in the sky
Every time you fly by?
Unlike me
They can't stand to be
Close to you
On the day that you took wing
Designers got together and decided
To create a dream come true
So they added rerolls to your swarm
And watched the rebels as their panic grew
That is why all the TIEs in town
Follow you all around
Just like me
They have to be
close to you
[TIE screaming noise]
Close to you

To the tune of "Logical Song" by Supertramp

from the point of view of a frustrated TIE Advanced player.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBoYZqmcZuc

Please ignore the video, it's the only studio version of the song on Youtube.

Verse 1:

When it was wave one, it seemed x-wing was impeccable,

reliable, it was dependable, infallible.

And all the ships in the game, well they'd exist in such harmony,

parity, symmetry, equality.

But then they released new waves, including ships that were powerful,

effectual, indomitable, practical.

Then they changed the meta, and it became so unuseable,

impractical, illogical, nonfunctional.

Chorus:

There are TIEs, at 12 points they're so cheap

The Phantom's too OP

for such a TIE Advanced

FFG, please tell me what's in store,

I know it's underpowered

please fix my TIE Advanced.

Edited by IronTau

Every thing is awesome!

Everything is cool when your HP is 16

Everything is awesome

When you're flying a VT

I had a whole song for this but forgot it. Someone not on a phone forum search it up!

I love Supertramp, ah the memories.

I love Supertramp, ah the memories.

I immediately regretted picking a song with so many -le ending words. But I was too far along.

Amazing song and band overall. Love it
