Songs Doug Should Never *EVER* Play

 Quote:And indeed it was. Not a bad voice for a non-professional singer, although she has to stretch in a few places. As a Doug song, well, I can't see too much happening, either as a power or a backfire... Sorry, Ed. -- Bob --------- Then the horns kicked in... ...and my shoes began to squeak.
That's okay, Bob.
We'll have to see if "Run With Us" triggers anything with Doug. Ed.
I'll listen to it a couple times when I get home tonight and see what comes to mind.
-- Bob --------- Then the horns kicked in... ...and my shoes began to squeak.
A couple songs that Doug should definatly try to avoid are "How the God's Kill" by Danzig :
"if you feel alive in a darkened room do you know the name of your solitude if you ain't got the answer if you don't know the truth if you want the power then let it flow through would you let it go would you let it go they cannot end this mourning of my life show me how the gods kill if you feel alive if you got no fear do you know the name of the one you seek if you want the answer if you want the truth look inside your empty soul there you'll find the noose would you let it go would you let it go they cannot end this mourning of my life show me how the gods kill" Another to Avoid is Mettalica's "Creepeing Death" : "Slaves Hebrews born to serve, to the pharaoh Heed To his every word, live in fear Faith Of the unknown one, the deliverer Wait Something must be done, four hundred years So let it be written So let it be done I'm sent here by the chosen one So let it be written So let it be done To kill the first born pharaoh son I'm creeping death Now Let my people go, land of goshen Go I will be with thee, bush of fire Blood Running red and strong, down the nile Plague Darkness three days long, hail to fire So let it be written So let it be done I'm sent here by the chosen one So let it be written So let it be done To kill the first born pharaoh son I'm creeping death Die by my hand I creep across the land Killing first born man Die by my hand I creep across the land Killing first born man I Rule the midnight air the destroyer Born I shall soon be there, deadly mass I Creep the steps and flood final darkness Blood Lambs blood painted door, I shall pass So let it be written So let it be done I'm sent here by the chosen one So let it be written So let it be done To kill the first born pharaoh son I'm creeping death" Mettalica's "Of Wolf and Man" might be good if he wants to become a werewolf for a time. Rush's "Time Standstill" and Blacksabbaths "Ironman" should both have interesting effects. Rush's "Cygnus X-1, Part 1" could be used for an offensive and more destructive version of "Black Hole Sun". I absolutley shudder to think what the effects of Rage Against the Machines " Sleep now in the Fire" would be. "Die, Die, Die my Darling" by Metallica should be an effective single target kill song. Godsmack's "Bad Religion" may be intersting if he's feeling brave. Disturbed's "Enemy" should cause mass confusion. For Psi power "More Human than Human" by White Zombie may be good. There's alot of songs out there that I shudder to image what kind of effect they may have.
I wonder if I shouldn't plot out a Step that requires Doug use one or more of these "shouldn't use" songs...
-- Bob --------- Then the horns kicked in... ...and my shoes began to squeak. 
OOOOOOO.......
That IS evil!!!"I was an Otaku before those kids came along and changed the meaning of the word." -- HM "Howling Mad" Wilson to more than one team-mate. Hear that thunder rolling till it seems to split the sky? That's every ship in Grayson's Navy taking up the cry- NO QUARTER!!! -- "No Quarter", by Echo's Children
> I wonder if I shouldn't plot out a Step that requires Doug use one or more of these
> "shouldn't use" songs... Would that be one of these "expendable universe" things??? [grin] From RPGs, on occasion the GM manages to put the players and their characters under enough pressure that they "go nuclear", and use those abilities and items that have been carefully not used, sometimes for a very long time, if ever. I wonder if Doug has a similar 'setting'? "On 1 I'm capricious, on 2 I'm manic, on 3 I'm crazed... You don't want to see me on 4!" [grin] (Mis-quote from Mean Machine, in Judge Dredd (2000AD comic, not the film)) -- "It is the business of the future to be dangerous" - Hawkwind Quote:Yeah, ainnit? -- Bob --------- Then the horns kicked in... ...and my shoes began to squeak. Quote:You've already seen Doug hit one such "setting" in Chapter 12, you know. -- Bob --------- Then the horns kicked in... ...and my shoes began to squeak.
Yup, that we have.
One has to wonder just where on the 'Dial' he was ...."I was an Otaku before those kids came along and changed the meaning of the word." -- HM "Howling Mad" Wilson to more than one team-mate. Hear that thunder rolling till it seems to split the sky? That's every ship in Grayson's Navy taking up the cry- NO QUARTER!!! -- "No Quarter", by Echo's Children
"This one goes up to eleven." -- Nigel Tufnel
-- Bob --------- Then the horns kicked in... ...and my shoes began to squeak.
And has been used several times to GREAT effect in UF, IIRC
 "I was an Otaku before those kids came along and changed the meaning of the word."-- HM "Howling Mad" Wilson to more than one team-mate. Hear that thunder rolling till it seems to split the sky? That's every ship in Grayson's Navy taking up the cry- NO QUARTER!!! -- "No Quarter", by Echo's Children
uh... after being stumped for a while....
"Come sweet death" from Evangelion. if for no other reason other than the title... o_o _________________________________ Take Your Candle, Go Light Your World. Quote:Just for the title? I think the lyrics would have an even bigger effect: "I've screwed up everything in my life and my friends', so I think I'll just sit over here in the corner and die." No, not a Doug song by any measure. -- Bob --------- "Flan on!" -- The battlecry of the Human Dessert 
You want another 'Not Doug' song? I saw this one and *IMMEDIATELY* thought of this thread (Thanks to the second-to-last line, it's potentially worse than Messiah) (Translation by AonE_Inf, comments on the translation by me):
Makkana PLASMA ima Gareki no tsuchi ni tatsu Unaru kyotai Kami no keshin Seinaru na wa Go! Godannar! Oo eien no heiwa wo chigiriai, Oo, mi mo kokoro mo kasanete, Hagane no kende ban ban, Jaakuna tekiwo gan ga gan! Tamashi ni kome Full Power de, Ga Gan! Ga Gan! Ga Gan! Honou wo agete ban ban, Heart Breaker ga gan ga gan, Ozoke furuu konoyo no yami, aa, yakitsukusu made, ai ni junjiyou, Shinkon Gattai Go! Go! Go! Godannar! Godannar! Godannar! Translated, Red plasma, shining amidst the ruins, A roaring machine, the incarnation of God (1), Its holy name is Go! Godannar! Oh, swearing an eternal peace, Oh, putting heart and soul together, With a sword of steel, Bang, Bang, An evil enemy, Bang Ba-Bang, With my soul, in full power (2), Ba-bang! Ba-bang! Ba-bang! Burn them up, Bang! Bang! With a Heart Breaker, Bang! Ba-bang! Until the horrifying darkness of this world is burned away, I will sacrifice myself for love, Shinkon Gattai Go! Go! Go! Godannar! (3) Godannar! Godannar! (1) This could just as easily be translated as 'of the gods' or 'of a god'. (2) Personally, I'd have left out the 'my' and the comma in the translation and changed the 'in' to 'at'. (3) They did the translation of this a bit... oddly, so I left it as is. The title of the series this song is the opening of, Shinkon Gattai Godannar, is really awkward in translation. Godannar, as a proper name that's written out in katakana, can be left alone anyway, but 'Shinkon Gattai' could just as easily be written as 'Shinkongattai' or any other such combination, except for the subtle pause in the song between 'kon' and 'gattai'. Literally, though, it means 'God and soul combined into one'. See why I *REALLY* don't think Doug would want to use this one?------------------- *No,* Sachiel replied. *Aww, come on,* I answered. *Absolutely not,* he insisted. *What's so bad about my idea?* *While I have no problem with withdrawing and allowing you to handle the situation, I have... issues with your plan to tell the Lillim that you are the "3.14th Angel, Auwhotda'ell".* ![[Image: Aleh.jpg]](http://www.animecubed.com/billy/pics/sigs/Aleh.jpg)
Yeah, that would be a bit... problematic, wouldn't it?
Definitely keep that one away from the helmet... -- Bob --------- And all the girlies say I'm pretty dry for a wet guy...
Going back, I realized that 'Shinkon Gattai' could also be translated as "merged with a god's soul". Translating Japanese to English is... problematic at best, and a three-kanji combination like this is one of the harder structures for that.-------------------
*No,* Sachiel replied. *Aww, come on,* I answered. *Absolutely not,* he insisted. *What's so bad about my idea?* *While I have no problem with withdrawing and allowing you to handle the situation, I have... issues with your plan to tell the Lillim that you are the "3.14th Angel, Auwhotda'ell".*
Looking back at one of the classics, I found... this gem of a song that *MIGHT* be useful... if Doug ever finds himself needing a quick sex-change. Of course, for the duration, he won't be able to avoid being hit on by all sorts of overly hormonal men, some of whom won't take 'no' for an answer...
Honey Flash (the opening to Cutey Honey) Kono goro hayari no onna no ko Oshiri na chiisa na onna no ko Kotchi wo muite yo HANII Datte nanda ka datte datte nan da mon She's the sort of girl who's always in fashion And her behind is the cutest one we know of Please look my way Honey! On account of, on account of just because *Onegai onegai kizutsukenaide Watashi no HAATO wa CHUKU CHUKU shichau no * Oh pretty please, oh pretty please, Please don't hurt my heart this way The fast drumbeat of my heart Tickles, tickles, ticks deep inside! **IYA yo IYA yo IYA yo mitsumechau IYA HANII FURASHU! ** Oh, don't, No don't Give me that look in your eye Honey Flash! Imadoki ninki no onna no ko PUKU- to BOIN no onna no ko Kotchi wo muite yo HANII Datte nan da ka datte datte nan da mon She's the sort of girl who's always in fashion And her breasts are the nicest ones we know of Please look my way Honey! On account of, on account of just because Onegai onegai chika yoranaide Watashi no o-hana ga HIKU HIKU shichau no Oh pretty please, oh pretty please, Please don't come close at all Pressure build up in my brain Giggle, giggle, laughter comes out! IYA yo IYA yo IYA yo mitsumechau IYA HANII FURASHU! Oh, don't, No don't Give me that look in your eye Honey Flash! * repeat ** repeat * repeat ** repeat Kawaru wa yo I'm going to change ------------------- *No,* Sachiel replied. *Aww, come on,* I answered. *Absolutely not,* he insisted. *What's so bad about my idea?* *While I have no problem with withdrawing and allowing you to handle the situation, I have... issues with your plan to tell the Lillim that you are the "3.14th Angel, Auwhotda'ell".*
Is Doug allowed to boostrap himself up???
"Honey Flash to Iczer One!" "Summon Iczer Robo!" Two hundred metre tall mecha steps out of sub-space storage, and a tractor beam sucks Doug/CH/I1 into the pilot's seat. "Hmm", looks down at ant-like humans, "Do any of them look as though they would be good at emoting, to power this thing?" [grin] -- "It is the business of the future to be dangerous" - Hawkwind Quote:I don't think I could get away with that in a game, so... no. Cool idea, though... -- Bob --------- And all the girlies say I'm pretty dry for a wet guy...
Actually, the lyrics don't mention Honey's changing ability, so I wasn't thinking of the song giving Doug *THAT* power -- just turning him into an attractive woman with... well...
Quote:and Quote: Moreover, given the *OTHER* lyrics, namely Quote:I was thinking that it also might... err... 'ditzify' Doug for the duration. Edit: Minor (one word) edit to clarify something that seemed... off.------------------- *No,* Sachiel replied. *Aww, come on,* I answered. *Absolutely not,* he insisted. *What's so bad about my idea?* *While I have no problem with withdrawing and allowing you to handle the situation, I have... issues with your plan to tell the Lillim that you are the "3.14th Angel, Auwhotda'ell".*
Quote:Yeah, I can see that... That's not all that useless or dangerous by itself; I actually have a song cued up for use in a hypothetical Step which would do the same for any given girl or woman. But... Quote:Yes. Definitely. So definitely don't use it... -- Bob --------- And all the girlies say I'm pretty dry for a wet guy...
> > I was thinking that it also might... err... 'ditzify' Doug for the duration.
> > Yes. Definitely. So definitely don't use it... I have never managed to see any "Cutey Honey", so I am not sure whether the song implies that CH is ditzified, or people who look at her "perfect form"? I bow to superior knowledge and wisdom! [grin] Also, if Doug saw the intro and heard the song together, might his mage gift not grab on to the "transform to Cutey Honey" power, or at least give him the "Honey Flash" power? "So, I listen to this song, and it gives me the power to transform into people gaining their specialist abilities, and alter my appearance. But, I have to go through a naked transformation sequence. Get back to you on this one..." [grin] I suppose it depends on your interest in seeing Doug naked... [grin] -- "It is the business of the future to be dangerous" - Hawkwind Quote: Quote:My wife might have something to say there, but I quite definitely don't. -- Bob --------- And all the girlies say I'm pretty dry for a wet guy...
