Open PaulSpence opened 1 year ago

PaulSpence commented 1 year ago

Hey kids. I want us to win the Most Creative Lightning Talk at the COSIMA workshop. Please help me re-write the words to "Its a long way to the top" by ACDC to match the science of our paper. I'll play it (badly) on Uke and you can sing it with me.

Lyrics:

… Ridin' down the highway Goin' to a show Stop in all the byways Playin' rock 'n' roll Gettin' robbed Gettin' stoned Gettin' beat up Broken-boned Gettin' had Gettin' took I tell you, folks It's harder than it looks

… It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll … If you think it's easy doin' one night stands Try playin' in a rock roll band It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll

Blowin' down the coastline Goin near the shelves Movin' all the sea ice Playin' downslope flows

Gettin' blown Gettin' cold Gettin' advected Safe in homes

Lesser' blown Lesser' cold I tell you folks, The easterlies have flown

Its a weak wind down the coast if you wanna sink my home Its a weak wind down the coast if you wanna sink my home

Easterlies are easy to understand If your playin' with a github band Its a weak wind down the coast if you wanna sink my home

PaulSpence commented 1 year ago

can you play bag pipes?

navidcy commented 1 year ago

No. I can sing and help w lyrics. I can try bagpipes but won’t come out good. Will give it a go.

navidcy commented 1 year ago

This is a descent lyrics attempt. Will it be karaoke-d? What are you envisioning?

navidcy commented 1 year ago

Perhaps will rhyme better with

Who else is in this band? We need rehearsing...!

PaulSpence commented 1 year ago

Playin' downslope flows --> Goin' down the slope

Nice edit!
