<p dir="auto">You must remember this</p>
<p dir="auto">DISMISS is still DISMISS</p>
<p dir="auto">It's Treguard saying bye</p>
<p dir="auto">The detrimental things apply</p>
<p dir="auto">As blades go by</p>
<p dir="auto">And Series 4 Team 2</p>
<p dir="auto">The first ones to go through</p>
<p dir="auto">Not knowing that they'd die</p>
<p dir="auto">But danger's what the Dungeon brings</p>
<p dir="auto">As blades go by</p>
<p dir="auto">Blades in the corridor</p>
<p dir="auto">Never out of date</p>
<p dir="auto">Screams of advisors</p>
<p dir="auto">Team 2 Series 8</p>
<p dir="auto">Watchers look on, directions come too late</p>
<p dir="auto">Then Treguard says goodbye</p>
<p dir="auto">It really can get gory</p>
<p dir="auto">The game of luck and glory</p>
<p dir="auto">A case of do or die</p>
<p dir="auto">The Watchers always welcome Knightmare</p>
<p dir="auto">As blades go by*</p>
<p dir="auto">[*Series 8 Short Cuts not included.]</p>

<p dir="auto">Here come the thoughts of an advisor who is determined that his team won't fall foul of the Corridor of Blades - or any other obstacle. Based on Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now by Starship. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3wxyN3z9PL4" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc">Music video</a></p>
<p dir="auto">Lookin' in your eyes I think about the prize</p>
<p dir="auto">This realm that we've found is too good just to watch</p>
<p dir="auto">Want us to be right there, want to be on Knightmare</p>
<p dir="auto">Pursuing a quest that I know we won't botch</p>
<p dir="auto">Let 'em say we're crazy, I don't care about that</p>
<p dir="auto">Put the Helm on your head, matey, don't ever turn back</p>
<p dir="auto">Let the world around us just fall apart</p>
<p dir="auto">Matey, we can make it if we're heart-to-heart</p>
<p dir="auto">And we can win this game together</p>
<p dir="auto">Standing strong forever</p>
<p dir="auto">Nothing's gonna chop us now</p>
<p dir="auto">And if the Causeway starts to crumble</p>
<p dir="auto">We won't take a tumble</p>
<p dir="auto">Nothing's gonna drop us, nothing's gonna chop us now, whoa no</p>
<p dir="auto">I'm so glad to guide you, I'm not gonna lose you</p>
<p dir="auto">Whatever it takes, I will give help to you</p>
<p dir="auto">Take you to the good guys, see you past the bad guys</p>
<p dir="auto">Whatever it takes is what we're gonna do</p>
<p dir="auto">Let 'em say we're crazy, what do they know?</p>
<p dir="auto">Hold on to the eye shield, matey, don't ever let go</p>
<p dir="auto">Let the world around us just fall apart</p>
<p dir="auto">Matey, we can make it if we're heart-to-heart</p>
<p dir="auto">And we can win this game together</p>
<p dir="auto">Standing strong forever</p>
<p dir="auto">Nothing's gonna chop us now</p>
<p dir="auto">And if the wall becomes a blocker</p>
<p dir="auto">It won't be a shocker</p>
<p dir="auto">Nothing's gonna block us, nothing's gonna chop us...</p>

<p dir="auto">[Autumn Of '89 / You Don't Have To Slay A Goblin, originally posted Monday 15 January 2007, 18:40]</p>
<p dir="auto">This song parody is about Ross' quest in Series 3. Based on Summer of 69 by Bryan Adams. Official music video <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9f06QZCVUHg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc">here</a>.</p>
<p dir="auto">I got my first real helmet</p>
<p dir="auto">Hoped to wear it for some time</p>
<p dir="auto">Treguard put it on my head</p>
<p dir="auto">It was the autumn of '89</p>
<p dir="auto">Me and some guys from school</p>
<p dir="auto">Had a team and we tried real hard</p>
<p dir="auto">Gavin Twigg, Fu Wang and Sharsad</p>
<p dir="auto">I said, "ya know, we're gonna get far"</p>
<p dir="auto">Oh when I look back now</p>
<p dir="auto">That autumn seemed to last forever</p>
<p dir="auto">And if I had the choice</p>
<p dir="auto">Yeah, I'd always wanna be there</p>
<p dir="auto">Those were the quest days of my life</p>
<p dir="auto">Ain't no use in complainin'</p>
<p dir="auto">While the Greater Game is played</p>
<p dir="auto">Rolled a die, entered a portal</p>
<p dir="auto">And then I met the maid</p>
<p dir="auto">Standin' on a trapdoor floor</p>
<p dir="auto">She told me that I'd won her favour</p>
<p dir="auto">Oh and when she fell right down</p>
<p dir="auto">I wondered if I had to save 'er</p>
<p dir="auto">Those were the quest days of my life</p>
<p dir="auto">Back in the autumn of '89</p>
<p dir="auto">Man we were doin' well</p>
<p dir="auto">We were clever questors</p>
<p dir="auto">We knew when to dispel</p>
<p dir="auto">I guess nothin' can last forever, forever, no</p>
<p dir="auto">And then the times got harder</p>
<p dir="auto">Met Morghanna and her axe was strong</p>
<p dir="auto">Sometimes when I'm watching my Knightmares</p>
<p dir="auto">I think of Melly, wonder what went wrong</p>
<p dir="auto">Standin' on a trapdoor floor</p>
<p dir="auto">She told me that I'd won her favour</p>
<p dir="auto">Oh and when she fell right down</p>
<p dir="auto">I wondered if I had to save 'er</p>
<p dir="auto">Those were the quest days of my life</p>
<p dir="auto">Back in the autumn of '89</p>

<p dir="auto">Here is this thread's [as was] second parody of Dusty Springfield's <em>You Don't Have To Say You Love Me</em>. Lord Fear is explaining what he expects of Lissard. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8l2Vq0qdBBE" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc">Official audio</a></p>
<p dir="auto">When I said I needed you</p>
<p dir="auto">Didn't know you'd look like this</p>
<p dir="auto">You are a slimy seneschal</p>
<p dir="auto">And my, you stink of fish</p>
<p dir="auto">Don't you see that now you're here</p>
<p dir="auto">In the employ of Lord Fear</p>
<p dir="auto">That you have to follow me</p>
<p dir="auto">And grant my every wish</p>
<p dir="auto">You don't have to slay a goblin</p>
<p dir="auto">Just be mean to Hands</p>
<p dir="auto">You don't have to stay forever</p>
<p dir="auto">Two years would be grand</p>
<p dir="auto">Believe me, believe me</p>
<p dir="auto">I can't help but loathe you</p>
<p dir="auto">Don't deceive me</p>
<p dir="auto">Or Hands will tie you down</p>
<p dir="auto">Here in my Pool of Veracity</p>
<p dir="auto">Misbehave and I will see</p>
<p dir="auto">So obey my orders and</p>
<p dir="auto">Of course suck up to me</p>
<p dir="auto">You don't have to slay a goblin</p>
<p dir="auto">Just be mean to Hands</p>
<p dir="auto">You don't have to stay forever</p>
<p dir="auto">Two years would be grand</p>
<p dir="auto">Believe me, believe me...</p>
