I had been thinking for quite a while to make an SA parody of When You Believe, because the line "seeking faith and speaking words I never thought I'd say" fits so well to me with the whole how you become a Radiant thing, and I finally wrote the parody. Last night. At 3am. I fixed it up, and recorded it as well. Oh, and I changed up the Hebrew to fit the Stormlight Archives theme better than it does XD And now, without further ado, the lyrics and a recording of me singing: Many nights we've prayed With no proof anyone could hear In our hearts a hopeful song we barely understood Now we are not afraid Although we know there's much to fear We were breathing stormlight far before we knew we could There can be radiance when you believe Though hope is frail it's hard to kill Who knows what radiance you can achieve When you say the words, somehow you will You will when you believe In this time of fear when prayer so often proved in vain Hope seemed like the grass on ground Too swiftly hides away Yet now I'm standing here (Now I'm standing here) With heart so full I can't explain Seeking faith and speaking words I never thought I'd say There can be radiance when you believe (When you believe) Though hope is frail it's hard to kill (It's hard to kill) Who knows what radiance you can achieve (You can achieve) When you say the words, somehow you will You will when you believe Ashira l'tanavast; ki gaoj ga-ah Ashira l'tanavast; ki gaoj ga-ah Mi chamocha baelim tanavast Mi kamocha nedar ba’kavod Nachita v'chas-d'cha eved zu ga-alta Nachita v'chas-d'cha eved zu ga-alta Ashira, ashira, ashira Ashira l'tanavast; ki gaoj ga-ah Ashira l'tanavast; ki gaoj ga-ah Mi chamocha baelim tanavast Mi kamocha nedar ba’kavod Nachita v'chas-d'cha eved zu ga-alta Nachita v'chas-d'cha eved zu ga-alta Ashira, ashira, ashira There can be radiance when you believe Though hope is frail it's hard to kill (It's hard to kill) Who knows what radiance you can achieve (You can achieve) When you say the words, somehow you will Now you will You will when you believe (When you believe) You will when you believe SA_When_You_Believe.wav

Thank you! I really enjoyed singing it! I had not seen it, and went to check it out, it's really cool!

Thank you!!

Ye asked, and ye shall receive XD (with permission from @kuiinteth of isaana) (a version with me playing piano as accompaniment will be sent, as soon as I'm done managing to play the accompaniment) Kaladin_Let_it_Go.wav

Thank you! The Kaladin Let it Go is awesome, by the way (I know I already said it on the Discord, but it had to be said again)

Thank you!! Really? I'm gonna have to go find that and listen, it sounds cool!

I like writing, and parodies of songs are a specific thing that I enjoy writing sometimes. Yesterday and on Monday, I worked on writing a Stormlight Archive parody for the song from Mulan "I'll Make a Man Out Of You", and then sang it, so, enjoy! I'll Make a Crew Out of You Let's get down to business To defeat the Parsh. Did they send me dun spheres When I asked for light? You're the saddest bunch I ever met But you can bet before we're through Misters, I'll make a bridge-crew out of you. Tranquil as a sphere But a storm within. Once you find your center You are sure to win. You're not a spineless, pale pathetic lot But still you haven't got a clue. Somehow I'll make a bridge-crew out of you. I'm never gonna catch my breath Say goodbye to those who knew me Boy, was I a fool at work for skipping runs This guy's got them scared to death Hope he doesn't see right through me Now I really wish that I knew how to swim BE A CREW We must be swift as those swordy fellows BE A CREW With all the force of a great highstorm BE A CREW With all the strength of a chasmfiend Mysterious as the dark sides of the moons Time is racing toward us 'til the Parsh arrive. Heed my every order And you might survive. You're unsuited for the Thrill of war So I think it's time to fight Somehow I made a bridge-crew out of you BE A CREW We must be swift as those swordy fellows BE A CREW With all the force of a great highstorm BE A CREW With all the strength of a chasmfiend Mysterious as the dark sides of the moons BE A CREW We must be swift as those swordy fellows BE A CREW With all the force of a great highstorm BE A CREW With all the strength of a chasmfiend Mysterious as the dark sides of the moons Hoo-ah! And me singing the song: Ill_Make_a_Crew_Out_of_You.wav (a version with me playing piano accompaniment to this will be uploaded as soon as I'm done learning the accompaniment)

Yeah, it does. After reading your response I decided to look at biblical Hebrew, to see what the word בית would be, and found that it's that way (I had immediately thought of modern Hebrew, whoops). I was also a bit thrown off by how Isaac had pronounced the word, since the spelling of the pronunciation he used seems to be the one that means house, and not house of (בַּיִת - Baith/Ba'eeth, which means house, versus בֵּית - beit/h, which means house of), unless, of course, I'm reading the pronunciation wrong.

So, I'm a native Hebrew speaker (I'm Israeli), and I find it a bit odd that Isaac used the word "בית" (baith/ba'eet) for family, since when I think of family, I think of משפחה - mishpacha, and בית is house, or home. I asked my classmates for what they would translate בית to in English, and family to in Hebrew, and they responded the same way, family - mishpacha, baith- house/home.

I loved the parts with Shallan. I find her a really awesome character

I'm good. I already ate, but thanks anyway

Hi! I'm Shallan314, and I've read all of the cosmere books besides Whitesand. I started reading the cosmere's books two years ago, and became hooked. Sanderson writes really well. Anyway, Hi!
