Does General have an anthem? I think we have an animal and possibly a motto, but no anthem comes to mind. I'm sure we could come up with some balderdash together. I'm looking at you, Pure Metal and Ashmoria, you're musical people. Or so I've been (mis?)led to believe.

How about 'The Wheels onThe Bus (go round and round)'?

"It's the end of the world (as we know it)" by The Ramones. It fits with the place. Many people here DO want to change it, and we're generally an understanding bunch...sort of...

:eek: what did i do?!

meh, i dunno... *tries to think of something witty*

*fails miserably*
bah!


though are you talking a real song or that we should make a song?
there have been many suggestions for mottos in the past... i still like "leave your sanity at the door" myself :p
(and are you who i think you are?)

How about 'The Wheels onThe Bus (go round and round)'?
The wheels on the bus go round and round
Round and round, round and round

It would have to be re-worked just to include some of our lovely, little debates here in the land of sulfur and brimstone. Of course it's me.

good thinking though it sounds like a lot of work... i'm tired... you do it ;)
wake me up when you're done :P
and see, this is why i said things would get confusing... i'm confused already! lol *shuts up*

Start out with a chant:

General!
General!
General!
General!

Then go to the intro:

Here we go again...people rantin' and ravin'...
Here we go again...we're always pissed about somethin'...

Then the pre-bridge:

But it's nothing to worry about...
Chances are, we'll all come out of this

Then the bridge:

Just the same as we were before
Nothing new, but it's never a bore

Postin', postin' all day long
My GWAM's got to be
at least a hundred and three

Then the chorus:

On the NationStates General Forum
That's right on the NationStates General Forum

Then the bridge:

Where we can talk about whatever we want
Day and Night
Night and day
Doesn't matter what we say

Then the chorus again:

On the NationStates General Forum
That's right on the NationStates General Forum

Then the outro:

People, people gather 'round...
Lookie, lookie, at what I've found
The NationStates General Forum

And that's it

The Macarana.

Just cause its annoying and everyone'll want to change it, leading to threads upon threads about what the 'New' NS General anthem should be.

Or anything by the Crazy Frog. Just to piss people off. :p

Minimalist scum.

Minimalist scum.

You are the wind beneath my wings, H. :fluffle:

Minimalist scum.
Elitist are we?

Minimalist scum.

Ha

I think we have an animal
We have an animal??

We have an animal??
I think so.

It's The End of the World As We Know It is by REM.

Elitist are we?
I am not Elitist, rather, I am the Elite. I, and I alone, stand head and shoulders above all humanity in my lordly powers and capacity for destruction.
You Shudra can feel free to start groveling and licking my boots at any moment you so choose.
The first 10 to swear their souls, minds, and bodies to be mine for eternity get a free trip* to Disney World!
Anyway, as the Supreme Being, I have put my Infinite Wisdom to the task of determining the perfect NS Anthem, and I have found it: "Old McDonald Had a Popular Chain of Restaurants, SO BUY HIS FOOD WITH YOUR SOUL!"

*A "Free trip" from a local hotel to Disney World. You have to get to the Hotel and get tickets, rooms, food, and boarding on your own.

Start out with a chant:

General!

I think Toolendusia's on to something. This is rather catchy.

The Macarana.

In that case, I recommend "Bananaphone." That song either pisses people off or makes them laugh rather a lot. I find it entertaining, though not at all related to NS.:D

Is there a song about breaking down all the time?

It's The End of the World As We Know It is by REM.
Errr...I already said that. Seems it's the only song with multiple votes so far. But, like everything else on General, the debate will never end. The moment you think it's gone...BAM! It strikes up again.

On second thought, "Kidnapped by Neptune" by Scout Niblett might be a better anthem: It is pointless, repetitive, and generally stupid. However, it doesn't annoy me enough to look for something better to listen to.

I'm surprised none of the anarchist or commie clowns have suggested the Internationale.

In all fairness it is a very pretty song.

being serious here (off-chance)
What about Internationale? we have people from all over so I think it would be a good idea.

WOah... seriously didnt read about internationale until after I posted....
I swear on my collection of floppy disks.

How about 'The Wheels onThe Bus (go round and round)'?

Damn It. I was going to suggest Highway to Hell but that made me laugh! :D

That is my vote!

We need more verses. Beacuse I made the song, I decide what gets on and what doesn't.

Speaking of wasting too much time on NS General, whatever happened to the musical? I suppose it just died?

It was said that the Ramones played that song.

Got another verse.
