Biscuits are better in time fer yule.
Over on the Grand Order forums, Pycella has worked hard to create a hobbity yule calendar, with plenty of surprises coming in them days before yule: Recipes, drawings, videos, music, etc.
I figured I’d send in one of me old yule songs there, since I found out that I had never made the song lyrics public before. However, since I am somewhat fond of the song, I also thought I could try turn it into a video. Not least since I wanted to field-test my editing program after a major update, before we start work on the 2017 hobbit yule video.
So, I had some spare time the other day and came up with the video below. Given that the song is from my childhood days up in Brockenborings, I was ably helped by Tibba playing the role as me scary ma. Hope yer enjoy it!
Biscuits fer yule – Lyrics
(best sung to the tune of The First Noel)
On a night long ago, it was raining outside
I was hungry and went to the larder to pry
There were biscuits up there, so I started to climb
But me ma yelled before I could finish me crime
So I fell off the stool, and I felt like a fool
Let us all hope fer better in time fer yule
So me ma bought a lock, quite a sturdy old latch
And she smiled as she thought I had now met me match
But it wasn’t to be, she stopped dead in her tracks
When she saw me set course fer the door with an axe
So I lost the old tool, and I felt like a fool
Let us all hope fer better in time fer yule
On a night long ago, it was snowing outside
I was hungry and went to the larder to pry
On a plate near the floor, many biscuits for me
And a note from me ma said: “Have these with yer tea”
Though the weather is cruel, me ma’s a jewel
There is nothing like biscuits in time fer yule
Well done! Grand song and actors play well! Cheers Lina and Tibba!
Want to notice:
– The idea and realization are perfect
– Miss Tibba with rolling pin look amazing smile
– The use of signs to cover biscuits smile
With these few options we have it take guts to make such video!
If someone from SSG will read this, please as a Yule gift, give miss Lina ability to freely move in game camera as Cordovan did during the Harnkegger Games! You must support old school community and creativity!
Listen to me God damn it smile
Tee hee, thanks! And thanks for the intro logo as well!
Oh, I’d love to have the admin camera options. That’d make for some grand sweeping scenes. Still, it is fun to play around within the limitations we currently have too. If nothing else, it makes you think hard about how to set up the various scenes.
