3 times in a row! I seriously gotta move to China.

First the Blizzcon Contest, then the Waterfilm Contest and now the Rise to Power contest! Deamn, I should stop entering contests already xD. So, one month ago I got a mail from Blizz saying that I won the Rise to Power contest. Today they actually made it official for the community, took them some time atleast it's up now. I shared the place with 3 other amazing winners. Olibith, Baron Soosdon and Erunno! I'm happy to see a contest where it's not just one winner, since I couldn't really choose a favorite of the three. Now for you have haven't seen it, here is my entry!
You can view the rest of the entries here! I'll write more about the other entries and about Welcome to the Deadmines in the next post if you wonder.
Though, for all you fans out there, I've got Wallpapers!.. Hello?... Anyone??... Doh!

Congrats on winning. It's great (and jealousy inspiring) to see your massive talent rewarded like this. Will there be an mp3 file of Welcome to the Deadmines available sometime?

Thank you very much

Was that song an original or was it based on something else? The structure reminds me of a Disney Aladin song almost, but I can't place it.

Great work!

MARVELOUS WORK and CONGRATS for the price. Awesome.

The sound reminds me a bit of a "Hardware Store" by W. Al Yankovic.

See your next projects soon!

Now you need to make a Welcome to Shadowfang Keep.

Could not find them anywhere, so had a go at transcribing the lyrics... [???] indicates it is a word I cannot hear/understand

Enjoy!

Welcome to the Deadmines
========================

DPS ... check
Healer ... check
Tank ... check

Err, what's a tank?
You are a tank, OK?
Oh... huh huh huh!
Now, where were we?

Guys, do you hear that?
Hear what?

Welcome Ladies and Gentlemen!
Have you ever been to the Deadmines before?
No
Never
Nope
I should [????]
Well, there was this one time...
Really? Then let me show you around!

Everybody look, a-look around
All the passages are filled with sound
Everybody's jumping up and down
In the burrow grounds

You say that you are challenging
The leaders of the Brotherhood
We hope that you have understood
That you never could

We have come for the bounty on your head
The Stormwind Nobles want you dead!
You can't believe all that you've read
For Stormwind we have bled

We should smash you, just all exit
You no go to the magic pit
You don't scare me one bit,
When you've seen [?? pista prow ??] with it

Welcome to the Deadmines
Mysteries in the Deadmines
Welcome to the Deadmines
To the Brotherhood's base

Welcome to the Deadmines
Mysteries in the Deadmines
Welcome to the Deadmines
To the unforgotten place

Hello friends, I am Sneed
For cash, I've got what you need
Beware of my machine
Unpleasantries from me indeed

Welcome to the Deadmines
Mysteries in the Deadmines
Heroic in the Deadmines
The end of every place[?]

Welcome to the Deadmines
Mysteries in the Deadmines
Now you're here in the Deadmines
Just like the good old days

Alright stop!
Hammer time!

About that make it [?] "That could only mean trouble"
Revenge will be ours and Stormwind rubble! Mwah hah hah hah!
I've got a bad feeling about this! (*bubbles*)

We're under attack!
Avast ye swabs!
Repel the invaders

Argh, Listen up you scurvey weeks[?]
'Tis Captain Greenskin now who speaks
Defend our marvelous ship
Whilst swinging in time with our hip

Welcome to the Deadmines
Mysteries in the Deadmines
Welcome to the Deadmines
We're back in our old base

Welcome to the Deadmines
Mysteries in the Deadmines
Now you're here in the Deadmines
Now what do that a taste[?]
???Now that you want a taste
(*mass levelling ding*)

Welcome to the Deadmines
Mysteries in the Deadmines
You venture to the Deadmines
Like the Good Old Days!

Hah hah hah hah hah hah!

@Tequima

Actually, there is lyrics in the video. xD

Tequima said...

Ahh, that explains it. The version published for the contest http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_dAkB2f__o
by World of Warcraft (and linked too from "Beyond the Tree" in the comments section, http://beyondthetree.wordpress.com/2010/03/21/185-this-cave-is-creepy/ - which is how I came across it) does not have the lyrics...

Thanks for the lyric'd version - makes a lot more sense now LOL

(btw excellent video - have passed the link onto my fellow guildies. Looking forward to the next one!)
