Popular Post ccstat he/him Posted March 2, 2017 Popular Post Posted March 2, 2017 In a cosmere version of Taylor Swift's Shake It Off, I present Khriss singing Nazrilof (I've spoilered one stanza that deals with Secret History) Nazrilof You say you’re not that tough Complain you’ve got it rough But we don’t have enough, mmm-mmm We still don’t have enough, mmm-mmm No need to act so gruff Just one more list of stuff We still don’t have enough, mmm-mmm No we don’t have enough, mmm-mmm You just keep collecting, searching and detecting.

lookingglass she/her Posted March 2, 2017 Posted March 2, 2017 This actually makes Taylor Swift bearable! 1
Farnsworth Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 This would certainly explain his complaints that he writes on the maps!
ccstat he/him Posted March 7, 2017 Author Posted March 7, 2017 I got really excited about this and started to put together a music video of it. Picked out a bunch of cosmere fan art for the visuals, then recorded me singing the song to a karaoke track of Shake It Off.... It turns out my man voice doesn't sound good for Khriss or for impersonating Swift. I could do a grumpy Nazh, but that doesn't fit for the whole song. So, if anyone wants to volunteer their vocals, consider this your invitation. As a side note, there seems to be zero fan art of Nazh. Several billion of Kal, Shallan, and Vin. Nearly that many Adolin, Jasnah, and Lift. A decent handful of Vasher, and even one or two of Khriss, Silence, and Sixth of the Dusk. But no Nazrilof that I could find. If you know of any, please point me to it.
The Technovore he/him Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 This is the most amazing thing I've ever seen (with TLR's version of "You're welcome" taking close second). If Cosmere! The Musical ever happened, this would be a required musical number.

By the by, I was genuinely headbanging my table while reading the chorus and oh my God I heard Taylor Swift singing the words 'cause the Mistings gonna burn, burn, burn, burn and I was having a moment of complete, unabashed lack of self-awareness after that. You just made my day~ 1

WHERE IS THIS? Sorry for being a Necromancer, but this is great and I can't find TLR's "You're Welcome". Edited September 25, 2017 by Hafrigado

The Lord Ruler's "You're Welcome" Reveal hidden contents Okay, okay, I see what's happening here You're face-to-face with greatness and it's strange You don't even know how you feel, it's pitiful Well, it's nice to see that skaa never change Raise your head, let's begin Yes it's really me, It's Rashek, breathe it in I know it's a lot: the hair, the bod When you're staring at a Sliver of God. What can I say except "you're welcome"? For the Ashmounts, the koloss, the sky Hey, it's okay, it's okay, you're welcome All my enemies are doomed to die! [Verse 2] Hey, who pushed Scadrial across the sky, When you were waddling ye high? This guy When Ruin escaped the Well, who had built bunkers down below? You're looking at him, yo! Oh, also I blotted out the sky, you're welcome To darken your days and so you don't die Also, I discovered Hemalurgy, you're welcome To spike your friends and make them cookies [Chorus] So, what can I say except "you're welcome"? For giving Scadrial some new geography It's required to pray, you're welcome It's hard to hide my superiority You're welcome, you're welcome [Verse 3] Well, come to think of it Child, honestly, I can go on and on I can explain every natural phenomenon The plants, the microbes in the ground Oh, that was Rashek just messing around I killed Alendi, I took his place Used the Well, saved the human race What's the lesson? What is the moral here? Don't mess with Rashek or you'll disappear And the bracers here on my arms Contain the powers that keep me from harm Look at this world, I made everything happen Look at my Inquisitors just gleefully hacking Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, hey [Chorus] Well anyway, let me say you're welcome For the wonderful world you know Hey, it's okay, it's okay you're welcome Well, come to think of it, you gotta go Hey, you didn't think to say "you're welcome" So Inquisitors are going to hunt you down your execution's today, you're welcome 'Cause Rashek doesn't like to see you frown You're welcome, you're welcome I've quoted the post for you @Hafrigado. It came from this thread. Edited September 25, 2017 by ccstat 2
Faceless Mist-Wraith he/him Posted September 25, 2017 Posted September 25, 2017 This is really great @ccstat! It fits really well with the music, and the image of serious Khriss singing this to even more serious Nazh is hilarious. *I received a notification about being quoted in this thread, and I honestly couldn't figure out how I had been quoted in a thread I hadn't even heard of until I checked the page. That was funny.
Modal Seoul he/him Posted September 25, 2017 Posted September 25, 2017 (edited) Okay, what? (I don't know the feelings that come out of this.) Edited September 25, 2017 by Captains Domon Forgot parentheses. :P
