..... and if you search the D20Radio Archives for the "Order 66 Podcast - Saga Edition" episodes, you can find several of these done in full audio for the show.....

That's how you are doing these. Here I thought you were doing these off the cuff.

Ah, Fulongamer strikes again. I figured he might show up in a thread looking for Star Wars parody songs. I remember hearing a lot of these on the D20 Order 66 podcast. Yeah, he has a lot of these stored up. Impressive talent I must admit. I love Iron Maiden Star Wars.

Thanks,
Duncan

Stand up slow clap.

Greetings gentlebeings, I’m KCK-Sim, and I’m your continuing guide on this, the 50^th Anniversary Musical Special presentation of the HoloMusicNet Top 10 Countdown.

Welcome to the conclusion of our series of top 10 listings that have been compiled from the hottest mainstream and underground hits from the last 50 years. Artists spanning from the last days of the Old Republic, through the Empire and Rebellion, and into the New Republic and the Vong invasion are showcased here. Great things have transpired in the galaxy over the last 50 years, and that of course means we have had some great music as well.

In these broadcasts, we will present the greatest hits that have been repressed for generations. Compositions that will survive the eons, that endured the wrath of war, and will reanimate the sentient and the romantic in all of us. Classic themes that carried the flame of the Rebel Alliance lie alongside the undeniable mastery of the Imperial propaganda machine. While state sponsorship helped entrench some of these classics, the creative passions of artists who lived one step ahead of the secret police have carved an indelible print across the cultures we celebrate today. And hey, don’t think the archives are the only representatives in our show! We have an astounding array of the hottest holovideos that are blazing over sub-space right now. From refugee charity concerts that are trying to cheer the displaced masses from the invasion to the novaflare backlash at the cracks forming in the New Republic. We have it all here for you with the inside comm, your backstage pass to the immortal worlds we bring before you tonight.

Rankings have been compiled from the affiliate stations on the HoloMusicNet: Holo-Hits One(HH1), Music HoloVideo (MHV), Bothan Entertainment Transmission (BET), and The Naboo Network (TNN). Additional rankings were defined by combining the records of the COMPNOR official and prohibited music archives with recovered documents on the ISB’s counter-insurgency operations.

Nothing epitomizes the romantic lure of the stars and the thrilling image of the smuggler like the following two words…Kessel Run. Topping off the bottom half of the countdown is a tribute to the madmen and ships who do what saner beings just can't compute. Just take Spice, credits, ships retrofitted so much you'd get an Imperial Citation just for sitting on a landing platform, a black hole cluster, and a complete disregard for the laws of Republic, Empire, or Physics, mix with enough greed or guts to choke a Hutt and you have the makings of a Kessel Run. This one kept the crowd at the Corellidome on the edge of their seats and brought the band out for three encores at that show…

05. "The Kessel Run" by Tramp Freighters

Well my name’s Jonli-Petti Moor

Same as my daddy and his daddy before

You hardly ever saw Grandaddy down here

Only set it down about twice a year

He’d load a hundred tons of Ryll and some Kathracite

Everybody knew that he ran the spice

Now the Interdictor man wanted Grandaddy bad

He headed up to Kessel with everything he had

It’s before my time but I’ll tell you son

He never came back from the Kessel Run

Now Daddy made his business in a black Barloz

Got the loan from Jabba and knew who he was

Naboo Sector Customs painted on the side

Just shot a coat of primer then he looked inside

Well him and my wookiee tore that engine down

I still remember that rumblin’ sound

Well the Jedi came around in the middle of the night

Heard mama cryin’, knew something wasn’t right

He was headed to Nar Shadda with hold of fun

You could see the wreckage burning on the Kessel Run

I volunteered for the Navy on my birthday

They draft for Stormtroopers first, ‘round here anyway

I done two tours of duty killin’ Rebel Scum

And I came home knowing how to get the job done

I take the spice from Arkania and Dagobah

I process in a complex at a place called Hoth

Well the Imperial Fleet’s got a blockade over there

I wake up screaming that the Bounty Hunter’s there

I learned a thing or two from ol’ Vader and his son

You better stay away from the Kessel Run

The Kessel Run

The Kessel Run

The Kessel Run

Greetings Gentlebeings, This is KCK-SIM with another in the ongoing galactic showcase of the HoloMusicNet Top 20 Countdown. Tonight's feature is from an outer rim artist who's proud to be a Nerf-Herder and brings this data to you with the tongue-in-cheek attitude they are famous across the sector for.

_{Uneasy Flyer – The Tusken Raider Band}

Uneasy Rider - The Charlie Daniels Band

I was takin a trip to Coruscant

Toolin along with my Hyper on

Tokin on a number and diggin on the holonet

_{Just as I crossed the Mandalorian line}

I heard that hyperdrive start to whine

And I knew that coolant line was about to blow

_{Well the spares were shot and I got uptight}

Cause there wasn't an astromech in sight

So I just limped on in to somewhere outer rim

_{I went as far as I could and when I found a star}

I was right in front of this little bar

Kind of a nerf-herd lookin joint called the Dew Flap Inn

_{I stuffed my saber up under my vest}

And told the bartender that he had a guest

And would he be kind enough to take my creds for a call

_{There was one thing I was sure proud to see}

There wasn't a soul in the place except for him and me

He just looked disgusted and pointed toward the holocomm

_{I called up the station down the well a ways}

He said he wasn't very busy today

And he could have somone out there in just about 10 cycles or so

_{He said," Now, you just stay right where yer at!"}

And I didn't bother to tell the chu-ba

That I sure as hell didn't have anyplace else to go

_{So I ordered up a beer and sat down by the gate}

When some guy walked in and said, "Who owns this Crate

With the peace sign, the comm dish and quads on the hull?"

_{He looked at me and I **** near died}

And I decided that I'd just wait outside

So I laid a credit on the bar and headed for the port

_{Just when I thought I'd get outta there with my skin}

These 3 Wookiees come strollin in

With one old drunk Squib chick and some fella with green skin

_{I was almost to the door when the biggest one}

Said, "You take a bow to this lady, son!"

And when I did, that lightsaber fell out from underneath

_{Now the last thing I wanted was to get into a fight}

In Mid-level Nar Shadda on a Saturday night

Especially when there was four of them and only one of me

_{They all started laughin and I felt kinda sick}

And I knew I better think of something pretty quick

So I just reached out and kicked old green skin right in the knee

_{Now he let out a yell that'd curl yer hair}

But before he could move I grabbed me a chair

And said "Now watch him Folks cause he's a fairly dangerous thing!"

_{"You may not know it but this man is a spy.}

He's a undercover agent for the SBI

And he's been sent down here to infiltrate the Hutt Kadjiic!"

_{He was still bent over holdin on to his knee}

But everybody else was looking and listening to me

And I laid it on thicker and heavier as I went

_{I said "Would you believe this man has gone as mean}

As slappin Incom stickers on the hulls of YTs.

And he voted for Bail Organa for Chancellor."

_{"He's a friend of them long haired, jedi-type, Rebel bands!}

I betchya he's even got Republic flags

tacked up on the walls inside of his Barloz."

_{"He's a Nek Battle Dog, I tell ya guys.}

He may look dumb but that's just a disguise,

He's a mastermind in the ways of espionage"

_{They started lookin real suspicious at him}

He jumped up and said "Now just wait a minute Grem!

You know he's lying I been living here all of my life!"

_{"I'm a faithful follower of Master Freedon Nadd}

And I belong to a Mandalore Deathwatch band.

And I aint even got a Barloz, you can call home and ask my Droid!"

_{Then he started saying somethin bout the way I was dressed}

But I didn't wait around to hear the rest

I was too busy moving and hoping I didn't run outta luck

_{When I hit the port I was making tracks}

And they were just setting my ship back on its jacks

So I threw the droid a credstik and jumped in and fired that mother up

_{Master Quinlan wouldda sure been proud}

Of the way I was movin when I passed that crowd

Coming out the door and headed toward me at a trot

_{Now I guess I should of gone ahead and run}

But somehow I just couldn't resist the fun

Of chasing them all just once around the cantina

_{Well they headed for their ship but I hit the jets}

And spun around and headed them off with the best

I was swingin’ blasters and puttin’ a ton of dust in the air

_{Ha Ha! I had them all out there steppin and fetchin}

Like their pelts was on fire and their asses was catchin

Then I figgered I had better go ahead and split before the Imps got there

_{When I hit the sky I was really screamin}

Had Ions fryin and repulsors squeelin

And I didn't slow down till I was almost to Arkania

_{I think I'm gonna reroute my trip}

I wonder if anybody'd think I'd flipped

If I went to Bespin, via Onderon

/sigh. . . I will go in the corner and start feeling insignificant now. . .

It is said that the Dark Side the Jedi speak of takes many forms like hatred, selfishness, greed, and anger. But few disagree that one being in this age has captured all these vices and more like no other has since the days of the Emperor himself. Of course I am speaking about the Vong Executor Nom Anor. The crimes one can lay at the feet of this creature are beyond the pale of even the wildest ravings of Palpatine's twisted mind. Who else has served up no less than the galaxy itself for his own aggrandizement and advancement? Our next artist is no less controversial, as his name plainly states. Not to be confused with the Galactic Betrayer, the performer has set his sights on the music of our galaxy with as much cunning and in-your-face audacity as his namesake. Banned from MusicHoloVision for his explicit performances, Nom Anor has still undeniably earned the number 4 slot on this countdown with this breakout hit that has all the subtlety of a Super Star Destroyer.

04. “Lose Myself” by Nom Anor

Look, if you had one shot, one opportunity

To seize everything you ever wanted…One moment

Would you capture it or just let it slip?

His armor’s sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy

There’s blood out on the stage already, where’s the Jedi

He’s nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready

To drop bombs, but he’s still misrepresentin’

What he broke down, the whole crowd goes so loud

He opens his mouth, but the truth won’t come out

He’s chokin’, and everybody’s knowin’ now

The clock’s run out, time’s up over, blow!

Snap back to mortality, Oh there goes gravity

Oh, it’s Nom Anor,

He choked, he’s so mad, but he won’t give up that easy

No? He won’t have it, he knows the whole Republic’s nodes

It don’t matter, no hope

He knows that, he’s no dope

He’s so wired in control

When he goes back to his Master’s home, that’s when it’s

Back on the rack again, no

This whole spy biz

He better go capture this Jedi and hope it don’t kill him

I better lose myself in the movement, the moment

I own it, I better never let ‘em go

I only get one shot, do not miss my chance to throw

This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, No!

Solo’s escaping, through that hole there it’s gaping

These worlds are mine for the taking

I’m a king, Emperor of a, ‘Nuther New Order

A normal Vong is borin’, but the Invasion’s close to post mortem

It only grows harder, only grows hotter

He throws us all over, these infidel slaughter

Back to back foes, he drinks blood on the altars

Jedi robes? They’re no Gods even so

He grows poison at home, he’s everyone’s plotter

He owns you and plays every side on the other

But hold your prose ‘cause here goes the cold water

His warmaster want’s him no mo’, he’s on notice

They moved on to the next goal who knows

His plans fold and go Jabba

So the battle it grows and unfolds

And suppose there’s no back way to leave the attack

Da Da Da Dum, Da Da Dum, Da Da Dum

(Imperial Theme)

I better lose myself in the movement, the moment

I own it, I better never let ‘em go

I only get one shot, do not miss my chance to throw

This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, No!

No more playin’, Ima change what you call pain

Tear this Jedi goddess nonsense into bloody rain

I was playin’ in the beginnin’, then it went insane

I will bleed you and beat you and bring you shame

And I keep on lyin’ and sidestep the trip wire

Best believe someone else will be payin’ my piper

All the pain a lie to get by in my caste

And I sacrifice everything left in my past

And I can’t be caught as unfaithful in my betrayal

‘Cause man, these **** Jedi keep flying those fighters

And it’s no holo, there’s no Luke Skywalker, this is my life

And these lies are so hard and it’s getting even harder

Tryin’ to breathe and fake my belief, plus

Seein’ horror not up to bein’ a martyr I’m the war starter

Baby Ben Mara’s screamin on and

Too much for me to bother

Stayin’ in one spot, I got to jam I’m not

Getting’ enough to get by, I’m on the trail

I’ve got to formulate a plot ‘fore I end up in jail or shot

Success is the only way I’ll live no option, failure’s not

Tsavong is ailing but my failure has got to go

It’s my head to fail my master plot

So here I go is my shot

Fleet fail me not ‘cause maybe the only opportunity that I got

I better lose myself in the movement, the moment

I own it, I better never let ‘em go

I only get one shot, do not miss my chance to throw

This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, No!

I can do anything I set my mind to, man

Slow Clap for "The Modern Star Wars Admiral."

Well played m'lord!
