Tankers and tankeresses! Are you one of those who can't spend a day without music? Want to write something that can tickle your funny bone, and hone your songwriting skills at the same time?
 
Read on!

 

 

As the title literally suggests, you shall be creating a parody about a highly popular song, pertaining to Tanki Online. I hope I don't need to tell you what a parody is, but make sure it is funny enough to get us all in splits! This contest will hopefully bring out the best of this community's humour and creativity!
 
Oh, and I forgot to mention: though it's a sequel to the original contest, this one's gonna have..... a twist!

 


RULES

  • Since we expect parodies of high calibre from you all, we want you to pick songs of high calibre. That is why, in this contest, the song you choose has to be the holder of at least one Grammy Award.
  • If your entry does not meet the above basic requirement, it will not be considered.
  • All parodies should be Tanki Online-themed.
  • All songs chosen must be in English.
  • Your parody shall consist of at least two verses and a chorus. This is a minimum limit, you may go over that if you choose. Also, this bar can vary depending on the song you choose.
  • Reserving posts is not allowed.
  • There shall be no profanity or sexually explicit content in any of the entries. Observing such will lead to disqualification and a warning from the forum mods.
  • Plagiarism will lead to disqualification from this contest and all contests henceforth. Please, please do come up with original stuff!


WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

  • All entries must be submitted by 28th October 2016, 23:59 UTC+0. You may edit your entry as many times as you want during this window but will not be allowed to once I lock this topic.
  • Your entry must contain the following - The name of the song, the artist (featuring artists if any), the year the song you chose won the Grammy and for which category it did so, and finally, your parody. Note that you won't need to actually sing anything! All you need to do is write your parody and post it here.
  • While the first four components must be at the beginning of the post, the parody itself is to be put inside a spoiler for the editor's convenience.
  • Entries will be judged based on the following criteria - Song chosen, Songwriting style, Lyrical usage, and Adherence to the beat.
  • For those of you having trouble finding a song to cover, I'd suggest you look at this webpage, part of the official Grammy website where you can not only view each year's category winners, but also search for them based on artist and year. Good luck!


A SAMPLE ENTRY
 


Song: Clarity - Zedd ft. Foxes

Year of Grammy - 2014

Category - Best Dance Recording

 

It seems that I'm low on health,

I may drop dead anytime,
I'm out here, surviving on dregs,
My Hornet needs a recharge
 
I look round for repair kits,
There are none, is this the end?
Garage supplies; down to zero,
Await the ruin of my D/L
 
But what, is this I see,
That's it, he's all I need,
Just wish, he'd come to me,
My friend, where have you been?
 
Isida! Embrace your role,
Come and be my remedy,
Isida! The saviour,
My health bar's been awaiting!

 

 


REWARDS
 
Ah, rewards, where would we be without 'em? Anyway, straight to the point. Songwriting is no easy task, and hence your rewards for submitting in an epic parody will be thus -
 

 

First place shall receive 30,000 crystals

Second place shall receive 20,000 crystals

Third place shall receive 10,000 crystals

 

Other noteworthy entries shall also be recognized here, in addition to being rewarded with 5,000 crystals.
 

 

And that's about it with the dilly-dally. You have three weeks, what are you waiting for? LET'S GET PARODIZING!

OMG, I had a nice one for 'Fortunate Son' by Creedence Clearwater Revival', but this song was not a Grammy winner....  :(

 

 

Some folks are born made to steal the flag
Ooh, the red or the blue
And when the trumpet alerts the camp of a flag thief
Ooh, they point their cannon at you, Lord
 
It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no buyer's son, son
It ain't me, it ain't me; I ain't no fortunate one, no......

To keep the entries limited and of high quality, not to mention making the contest a little challenging, and hence making the reward more worthwile? :P

CONTEST ENTRY:

 

Song: Pharrell Williams - Happy

Year of Grammy - 2014

Category - Best Music Video

 



On that day the first time I'm in the game

What's this turret it seems so lame

Gotta, firing shots one by one with a steady pace

With a crit, I leave your broken tank in red flames

 

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you feel like your firebird is a fluke

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you feel like your meek hornet just got nuked

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you know I will overshadow you

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you feel like any other gun won't do

 

Here come a rager shouting this and that

Give me all you got, spam drug packs

Well I should probably warn you your damage's tame,

Compared to my smoky and its deadly aim,

Here's why

 

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you feel like your D/L is point-O two

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you feel like your thunder has got no use

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you know there is nothing you can do

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you feel like you forgot how to shoot

 

Smoky, bring me down,

Can't nothing, bring me down

Damage's too high, to bring me down

Can't nothing, bring me down

I said bring me down

Can't nothing, bring me down

Crit is too high, to bring me down

Can't nothing, bring me down

I said

 

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you feel like I'm crittin' everytime I shoot,

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you feel like your double armor's just for show

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you know your aim will be never true

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you feel like you are dying like a noob

 

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you feel like your firebird is a fluke

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you feel like your meek hornet just got nuked

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you know I will overshadow you

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you feel like any other gun won't do

 

Smoky, bring me down,

Can't nothing, bring me down

Damage's too high, to bring me down

Can't nothing, bring me down

I said

 

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you feel like my shots cannot be juked

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you feel like smoky players never lose

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you know I will paint the map with a dark red hue 

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you feel like giving up is the thing to do

 

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you feel like the loser's always you

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you feel like some nerfing's overdue

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you know I will overshadow you

Because I'm smoky

Don't get mad if you feel like any other gun won't do

Pity it has to be music. I'm no good at it.

Well I have heard some pretty decent rock songs by renowned bands though those songs may not have won a Grammy, they were still of a pretty high standard. And.. I don't really take part in contests just for crystals.

Song- the real slim shady

Year-2002

Category -Best rap performance

 

 

May I have your attention please

May I have your attention please!

So will the real king of XP please stand up?

I repeat, So will the real king of XP please stand up?

We gonna have a duel here.

 

Y'all acting like you never seen a skilled person before

Jaws all open on the floor

Like Druggers rushed open through the door

And started rekting you worse than before

They first were divorced flipping her over the cover

It's the return of the- oh wait,No wait,he just didn't say what I think he did,did he?

And @Pizzarrific said - nothing you Hy6s Pizza's never uses red!

Feminine tankists love Google's skill

Chiga-Chiga Noob kids

Am sick of them

Look at them

Walking around like you know what

Using equipment like you know who

Ya but there so cute though!

Ya I probably got a couple of screws up in my turret lose but no worse than what's going in Server 17 of RU

Sometimes I wanna get on YT but can't

And it's cool for noobs to hump a dead dude!

My laser is on your hips

Laser is on your hips

And if you feel something's special

I might release the my finger from the space

And that's the message we deliver to little kids

And expect not know what an hy6 is

Of course they gonna what an hy6 is when they hit the warrant officers they got Oufa with em don't they?

We ain't nothing but tankers

Well some of us our Xp players who mult in battles like sleeping bears

But if we can't rek gizmos and marshals there is no reason for biyers to buy more

If you feel like I feel I got the antipode, mult in battles like sleeping dogs and let's all go capture flags in Parkour!

Da Da DA DAda....(Continue random strumming for the next 10 seconds)

 

OH goldie goldie gold..... (Times 3)
Oh  you know I love you,
You know I care.
Just drop whenever
and I'll be there.

You want my tank...
Cus I'm so dankkk
then I won't never ever need to rank.

You aren't just an item,
so don't stop falling
When you're dropping,
don't need the light-on
Then there's another, who got in your way
That fat tank  took your crystals before me
and I was like

Goldie Goldie goldie oooh
Like goldie,goldie ,goldie ,
             noooo
Like goldie,goldie,goldie
              oohhh
I thought that you were to be mineee

 

For you,I would have killed whoever
and I just can't believe you've gone to another

and I wanna take you, but I keep missing.
with you I'll buy anything
I'll buy everything

and I'm so angry,goldie helpp
        me
and your love has taken me
'til I can snatch you from that fatty

You're dropping down down,down
      down,downn,
and I just can't believe that where your dropping is not around

and I'm like goldie goldie goldie ooohhh
Like goldie,goldie,goldie
noooo
Like goldie,goldie,goldie oohh
I though you'd always be mine,mine

 

Yesh, I know it's not a Grammy, but perhaps an exception for this masterpiece? lol

If not then it's more of  a  joke then anything else :D

Song- Where Are Ü Now
Year- 2015
Category- Best Dance Recording

 
 

I gave you the flag when the tunnel wasn't open, just admit it
See, I gave you flag, turned your doubt into hoping, can’t deny it
Now I’m all alone and my health is decreasing
Tell me, where are you now that I need you(isida)?
Where are you now?
Where are you now that I need you?
Couldn't find you anywhere
When you took the flag I didn't leave you
I was by your side
So where are you now that I need you?
Where are you now that I need you?
Where are you now that I need you?
Where are you now that I need you?
Where are you now that I need you?
I was putting mines when nobody else was mining
I gave you the gold, what you saying?
To keep you happy
I showed you the game everybody else was playing, that's for sure
And I was flipped when nobody else was defending, oh Hy6s
Where are you now that I need you?
Where are you now that I need you?
