Above the Benbow

Up the-e-e-re, above the Benbow- Orphans si-i-igh.
There they stand, Marleybone moon in puppy dogs’ eyes.
…
Up the-e-e-re, above the Benbow- Howls in tu-u-une.
And with dreams, little dogs believe howls can reach that moon.
…
One day they’ll fish and venture far
And wake up in some loving arms…
…finally-y-y-y-y!
Where joy is felt and sorrow stops,
That day with love from moms and pops.
That’s whe-e-erre that mo-o-o-o-n leads!
…
Up the-e-e-re, above the Benbow- big eyes wi-i-ide.
Moon flies over the Benbow, changing the skyways tide.
…
Such hopeful little orphans dream-
Above the Benbow-- Marleybone moon…do-o-on’t.,..hi-i-i-i-i-i-ide!

I hope you enjoyed it and thank you for joining in the parody party and the fun. I've had a blast doing my best to tackle the requests and you all sure have come through with some amazing songs for me to attempt to parody.
....

LOVED IT!!!!

You really made my day with these songs... thank you Valkoor!!!

I pretty much sung along with both of these songs, I really loved "A Brave Bold Girl" - I think that has to be my favorite by far. As a matter or fact, I think it even makes a perfect theme song for my main Pirate.

You are very, very welcome and I'm glad that you liked them.

The Aladdin one was such a natural fit for pirates and living a life of adventure. I really enjoyed making that one and hopefully providing inspiration to the many, kick-tush girl pirates out there in the Spiral. I know from experience that many of you are far more fierce and formidable than lots of us guy pirates. But shhhhhh....I won't tell all of them that!

Feel free to sing those songs as much as you see fit. They've been in my brain and vocal chords all weekend long. Everytime you log in with your main pirate, belt out A Bold Brave Girl and commence with the girl pirate power and Spiral stompin'.

.......A NEW THEME SONG!!!

Yep, that's right! We all know that this game is beyond amazing & brilliant in every way. What's not to like? I mean, we right wrongs, we battle, we sail- we recruit companions with fuzzy tails. We slice & dice & meet corsair mice. We find justice where none was to be found, whilst we plunder bad guys & smack booty around...eh, I mean plunder booty & smack bad guys around. And so on & so on!

Yes, this is a game with mass appeal & unlike no other.

But, I've found that there is one thing that P101 is missing-- a theme song! Or at least a song to help recruit new players to join up in all the scurvyness-ish-ism! I can't even recall the last time I saw a P101 commercial or advertisement flash by, as I reluctantly watched gratuitous amounts of Sophia the First & Paw Patrol (thanks twins!). I used to at least see the commercial, every once in a while...but not anymore. THIS NEEDS TO BE REMEDIED!! Potential players everywhere need to be exposed to the glory & splendor that is Pirate101.

So, without further ado, I bring to you the new, officially, unofficial-- Pirate101 theme song (to the tune of Escape, aka- The Pina Colada Song).

Aheemm...

Pirates and Plunder
...
I was a tired ol' matey, playing the same games for too long.
Life was getting so boring, like singing the same ol' song.
So, while I lay there dreaming, a vision came to my head.
It was a pirate and a monkey, and this is what they said.
...
If you like pirates and plunder, and getting lost in a game!
If you lack adventure and wonder, and excitement untamed.
If you like sailing off in the moonlight, and crafting your own fate.
Here's the adventure you've looked for, your destiny awaits!
...
At first I thought they were crazy, and made a rather odd team!
But I didn't let it phase me, as this clearly had to be a dream.
Though I thought a pirating caper, didn’t sound half bad.
And wouldn’t you just know it, it’s the most fun to be had!
…
Yes I like pirates and plunder, and getting lost in a game!
And I like Eagles in togas, and meeting companions to train.
Good friends to greet you by the boatload, as your adventure takes shape.
In a world called The Spiral, it’s time to plan your escape.
…
If you’re waiting for some action, set sail with us today!
Come live the life of a pirate, where the fun is here to stay.
Become a daring and fearless Captain, joined in battle by your crew.
And explore so many skyways, there’s just so much for you to do.
…
Do you like pirates and plunder, and getting lost in a game?
Do you seek adventure and wonder, and combat that’s insane?
Do you like joining friends in a fight, along with pets and a crew?
Then set your sails for excitement, Pirate101 is for you!
…
SET A COURSE FOR ADVENTURE!!!
Don't you think P101 could use a new theme/recruitment song? Also, I'd like to do requests on songs that you guys/gals think would make a great P101 song. Just post a song title & I'll see what I can do!
Wow! Nice one! Hmm lemme try... *thinks* (takes two hours) Got it!
Do what you want cause a pirate is free
You are a pirate!
Yar har fiddle de de being a pirate alright to be!
Do what you want cause a pirate is free
You are a pirate!
Lol! I dunno, I'm not so good with coming up with songs
(Credits to Foxy the Pirate, which is obviously me ) And watch out Bonnie, there's a new Fox in town (not Bonnie the Bunny, I mean Bonnie Anne, Fox Gunslinger er... I mean Fox Highlander)!

Thank you Esperanza, I really appreciate that and it's very kind of you to say. This is all practice for who knows what the future holds, but practice nonetheless. And it's quite challenging FUN!!! I agree that a fantastic video could be made out of that song and I just may try dabbling in the world of video making and editing, at some point. But if someone wants to beat 'The Perpetual Procrastinator' to it, I say go for it!

Thanks again and I'll be adding a few of my own songs here and there, just to keep the ol' creative juices flowin'.

While I think this game needs something other than a theme song (A new gosh darned world update, crafting, nautical pvp, etc.) a theme song would be cool. I'm thinking something smooth, but meaningful... like Reggae! I could totally imagine some Jamaican mons up in here! Throw a little bit of Bob Marley's Rat Race and Magic!'s Rude and I think we could have a real hit!

Hey there, Jack. Here's your pirate-y parody based on Estelle's, 'Stronger Than You'. Wow, this was a tough one & I didn't really know what to use for that 'I am made of love' part. But I thought that with you being the hidden & shadowy swashy that you are, 'I am made of fog' seemed fitting. I tried my best to make the lyrics work..quite challenging!

Stronger Than Moo

This is Morgan,
Jack-so-clever.
And I’m never bowing down to my foes and the evil Moo.
Because I’m a buckler
And every part of me is bringing the thunder!
.
And you can trust, we’ll never follow you fools!
Coming at you with skills trained in 5 pirate schools!
Let’s go, face me and crew!
Let’s go, coming for you!
.
Horns on head, you try and stop me- you’re not able.
Could it just be that you’re straight out of the stable!
I can see, you hate how we cause an upheaval..
But I think you’re just a mad cow that’s evil!
.
And you’ll never be on top, when we fight together.
We will never lose, not today or ever!
Try to tear us apart? You crazy whacked moo-er!
You’ll just end up like steak on this pirate’s skewer!
.
I am made
O-o-o-o-of
Fo-o-o-o-og.
O-o-o-o-of

Fo-o-o-o-og.
Fo-o-o-o-og.
Fo-o-o-o-og.

You can try so hard.
Stop me if you can.
Moo, if you think you can stop me.
Then you just might meet your end.
.
Cause I am a pirate,
With a will that never bends.
And you won’t even touch this Captain.
I’m coming at you with my friends.
.
Go ahead and try to stop me, you’re not able.
Frozen Tide, Infernal Wave can’t turn the tables.
I’ll be that nightmare- that something you’re afraid of.
‘Cause I’m brave and skill is what I’m made of.
.
What? I will never stand with the five of them.
Everything that’s fair and proud, that’s what I am.
I am a flurry, I am a whisper.
I am your downfall, Mister!
.
I am made
O-o-o-o-of
Fo-o-o-o-og
O-o-o-o-of
And I’m stronger than you.

Fo-o-o-o-og
O-o-o-o-of

So much stronger than Moo!

Hope you enjoyed it
...............THAT WAS BLOODY EPIC!!!! That was amazing lad, Genius, Masterpiece, and all out Creative. I couldn't be more impressed mate, brother ye've exceeded me expectations, I mean by Graybeard's Ghost I be utterly and completely Astonished well done mate, well done.

Lol...I can't argue with that!

Hello there & welcome to the message boards & this here goofy side of living the pirate's life. I totally agree that new worlds, updates, storyline continuation & new fun/ interactive stuff would go a long way to sprucing up the joint. We're certainly overdue for it & surely deserve it...& then some.

This thread & the "theme song" were created to serve a couple of porpoises....they are quite demanded sea creatures-- Ol' Eek & Squeek!!!

First purpose was to support the game & drum up some excitement & fun surrounding the game. To let new players know what they have in store for them & to just show enthusiasm for the game we all love.

Also, it was a sly, yet gentle, message in disguise for the fine folks at KI. We play the game...& we love it & we have a blast playing. New, future players will love it & have a blast too. But they have to first hear of it & catch wind of the adventurous fun & excitement. To continue our journeys, will require a constant flow of new players joining up. Potential new players need to know the game is out there-- not everyone who joins & plays, migrates over from Wizzy world. I had never heard of W101when I came aboard this ship.

Pirate101 is a game that deserves to be played, & thus deserves attention, promotion & advertisement. I hardly ever see anything advertising &/or promoting this amazing game, anymore. It shouldn't be that way & could use a bit of a marketing push if it is desired to float-on, by those that bring it to us. A new commercial or two, a theme/promotional song & other advertising tactics would do wonders to at least help unsuspecting scoundrels get hooked on this game. So I was sneakily trying to bring that to their attention while also having some fun trying to stir up some excitement for P101.

And perhaps the most important purpose behind creating this thread & the theme song was...I was in dire need of some new shower song material- all better now.

And roger that...Marley it is!

Fiorenza..I'm embarrassed to say that I came up with the first version before I realized there were actual lyrics to 'Baby Elephant Walk'!! I honestly was not familiar with the song so when I Googled it, I just watched the first couple of videos. Instrumentals, so I assumed..no actual lyrics. The 1st version was made up based solely on the delightful instrument "chatter". Then last night I actually Googled 'lyrics to...walk', & wouldn't you know!!! So, I made a 2nd version using Mancini's lyrics. Either way...tough song!

Lazy Tumbleweed Waltz
(DOH!, version)
.
Lazy tumbleweed slowly rollin'
Crazy Bumbaloons float on by...and byyyy-- keep on rollin'
Little tumbleweed keeps a rollin'
.
And in swings Toro, mask like Zorro
flippin' and skippin'- tumbleweed rollin', just Santo Pollo strollin'
.
Santo Pollo winds, don't stop blowin'
Little tumbleweed's gotta keep goin' on...and ooon-- keep a'rollin'
Blazin' Cool Ranch sun is a glowin'

Hey look, there's Sally, in that valley
Lazy lil' tumbleweed keeps a rollin', just Santo Pollo stollin'

Here comes trouble (oh no what's this?)
Lost it's tumble (no more windage!)

Hazy horizon is a showin'
Lazy tumbleweed keeps on rollin', my...oh myyy
Little tumbleweed were you goin'

Here in Junction, a tumbleweed's function
is to be free flowin'- just'a Cool Ranch rollin'

Lazy Tumbleweed Walk
(Say WHAAAT!!, version)
.
Tumbleweed you move so slow, but groovy
Watch as lazy Bumbaloons float high.
Just keep on moovin'
Puts me in a trance- just roll on by!
I watch you tumble, your quite a jumbled distraction
Lazy tumbleweeds in action walk.
.
See the big brown bull, he's Don Rodrigo
Watch the lazy tumbleweeds go dance
There's tres amigos
All the loco locals- in a trance.
Come to Santo Pollo and see distractions.
Lazy tumbleweeds in action walk.
.
If you plan on sailin' to Arroyo,
Don't dare bring your best shoes!
The land is dusty, with extra shares of the tumblin' blues.
Come to ol' Junction, you'll see a wonderful distraction.
Lazy tumbleweeds in action walk.

Best I could do
Lovely, Valkoor! I knew you could do it!

(And to be fair, I'd forgotten BEW had lyrics because we get the instrumental versions so often) :) Thanks for the reminder!

Won--der--ful, are all things when you rule.
And corruption is your best tool.

Count your score and…

All know that hidden face- those pockets lined by every place.
Pirates vanish- leave ne’er a trace-
Without any warning…new town by mid-morning,
Right time for pullin’ strings.
Fear with reverence!
Cha-ching-a-ching-ching,
ching-a-ching-ching,
ching-a-ching-ching!
…
You lead this band- this vagabonding creature!
You shake their hands and with just one look.
You’ve become a premiere feature!
You did well; you’re off with “hot” goods to sell.
And no one could even tell.
You bound to Squid Vicious- not a soul suspicious.
Love those smuggled up things and your smile says…
Cha-ching-a-ching-ching,
ching-a-ching-ching,
ching-a-ching-ching!
…
You walk this land, a charismatic creature!
All goes as planned, and with goods you took-
Making for the nearest seashore!
Life is swell, you’re off once again to sell.
Without care, you pillage well.
A hound causing upheaval, swashbuckling the people!
Swipe the loveliest things and your smile says…
Cha-ching-a-ching-ching,
