@shavixmir saidI guess a name picked by Trump and a tune like that deserve each other.

The US Space Force has revealed its song.
Now, let me be the first to get down on my knees and beg Satan, Jesus and Tinkerbell that this isn’t a hoax.
It’s so fukking horrifically awful, nearly nazi-esque and retarded that I got dispensation from the mods for swearing.

God damn. That will have the alien stormtroopers doubled up in fear, no doubts!
Too bad Warp Speed was taken for COVID. ๐
@soothfast said“Rah rah Rasputin, Russia’s greatest love machine” was better than “guardians beyond the blue.”
It's like a high school fight song.

@shavixmir saidIt’s exactly what I’d expect from the sitcom ‘Space Force’ which is actually quite funny in a Steven Carell kinda way.
The lyrics are so bad, it boggles the mind.
“Beyond the blue” ???
“Invisible front line” ???
“Space force from on high” ???
Whoever wrote that was bloody high.
No. Sorry. The Beatles were high and they wrote great songs. This just oozes Christian Just-Say-No drool.
Good grief. I wonder what Neil deGrasse Tyson has got to say about it…
@shallow-blue saidI’m getting nothing on Google, was it the CCP before covid
A classic! It's almost as good as:
There's a feeling everywhere of bigger things in store
Of new horizons coming into view
Our aim is clear: To make each year exceed the one before
Staying in the lead in everything we do
(Now, who here remembers those BEEPs?)

He may be good at playing this tune with his vibrating butt-plug. I can picture him now making the music. If only Trumps name was in the song you could really picture him (playing) away. His poor next-door neighbors.
@moonbus saidDon't insult Dr. Lehrer by associating him with this flag-masturbating tripe.
Yes, it’s embarrassingly bad. Tom Lehrer would’ve done better.
John Philip Sousa, TAFKAP, and Nicki... OK, maybe not her, but let's say Ariana Grande would also have done better, and been closer in style.
@fiandrunko saidLook, can you just go back to jail - again?
"Hail to the Redskins! Hail Victory!"
Fuk I hated that song.
@shavixmir saidThe Beatles were high before and after they wrote their songs. They knew better than to write things while being high.
Whoever wrote that was bloody high.
No. Sorry. The Beatles were high and they wrote great songs. This just oozes Christian Just-Say-No drool.
Good grief. I wonder what Neil deGrasse Tyson has got to say about it…
This has nothing to do with Christianity. It's all atheist Freemason ritual.
And as for Tyson... he's probably lapping it up. Sorry, but I have no respect for the man whatsoever. Give me Brian May or Patrick Moore.

If you had your first IBM-compatible computer in the 1980s (or rather, your parents did), it would have come with either BasicA or GWBasic. And with that would have come a diskette - yes, a separate diskette - with sample Basic programs on them. One of those would have played tunes. And one of those tunes, in fact the most notorious one, would have been "Ever Onward", the IBM corporate rally song.
Here, listen to this beauty: . And keep in mind that in those days, the lyrics would appear on your computer screen in full 80x24 character resolution, so you could sing along.
It did teach this teenaged European a rather tawdry lesson about American culture, back then.
@shallow-blue saidHa insane and so much to unpack, I still think they’ve ripped off the lyrics from an old Maoist marching. ‘Revere our leaders’ was a dead give away.

According to the lyrics only men worked for IBM. I do have fond memories of BASIC though really accessible for the domestic amateur.
@kevcvs57 saidA dead giveaway for the personality cult of the American entrepreneur, you mean. TJ Watson was born a decade or two before Mao, and was revered as the Great Leader as long before.

Uncommunist China is bad enough, but nothing compared to the anti-communist USA.

Get on soundcloud and post some licks there, guitar? Mandolin, whatever. It's free to get an account there, we can see how well you play.
