If I Did It: Dtoid Theme Song Entry
ArrestedDeveloper | 4:22 AM on 11.17.2007 10 comments



A few months ago when the Theme song contest was announced I went full force into creative mode and wrote down some lyrics to the tune of Man-God Rick Astley's "Never gonna give you up".

After spending a couple hours working out the lyrics I came to the sad realization that I really had no way of recording and uploading the song. I lost my microphone, the music track I bought had DRM, and I have no idea how to make a youtube video. So all in all I'm screwed but I wanted to at least post what lyrics I did come up with, the timing of the syllables can be a little awkward but you should get the idea.

Hit play and sing along.





We're no strangers to robots.
You like to play games and so do I.
And when it comes to video game news,
we wouldn't get it from any other site.
I just want to ask you all a question,
who the Fuck is Jim Sterling?

*Chorus*
Never gonna read joystiq,
reading it would make me sick,
everyone on there's a dick and a homo.
Only gonna read Dtoid,
or else Niero'd be annoyed,
Workman would be unemployed and homeless.

Been reading Dtoid for so long.
They've added blogging, stickam and ventrillo.
Updated daily or they've been murdered.
They know their games and they will review them
and if your asking what they'll score them,
Twighlight Princess got a 4.

*Chorus*
Never gonna read joystiq,
reading it would make me sick,
everyone on there's a dick and a homo.
Only gonna read Dtoid,
or else Niero'd be annoyed,
Workman would be unemployed and homeless.

*Repeat Chorus*

Joystiq sucks
Dtoid rules

Never gonna read, never gonna read
Joystiq sucks
Only gonna read, only gonna read
Dtoid rules

Been listening to the Podtoid for so long
They talk about game news, also touching children.
For old game news there is Retroforce go
King of all dolphins, Chad Concelmo.
Collete and Topher with his Slurpee
Dyson hates Metroid Prime 3.

*Chorus*
Never gonna read joystiq,
reading it would make me sick,
everyone on there's a dick and a homo.
Only gonna read Dtoid,
or else Niero'd be annoyed,
Workman would be unemployed and homeless.

*Repeat Chorus*

*Repeat Chorus and fade out*

Awesome. I think it should still be considered as an entry for the contest whether it was recorded or not. Great job AD!

We could all do this! Ok, we all need to get come recorders and tape this. Then we'll mail it to Ron and have him edit it. He'll add some epic credits and post it on YouTube. The whole thing will be priceless!
