This is a bit off-topic for BGTSCC, since it rarely corrsed over with Dragonlance. But since we have quite a few old-school players of D&D, I thought they might appreciate this stroll down memory lane.
For those of you who have never seen this, this is a song that was published in Dragon magazine many years ago. It is a Dragonlance song to be sung to the tune of Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody". I hope you all enjoy.
Companions Rhapsody
(with apologies to Queen)
Tanis: Is this my real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Where do the stars hide?
Why does evil close in on me?
Raistlin: Hourglass eyes
Look up to the skies and see.
I'm not a weak mage,
I know the truth, you see.
There will be Dragons Blue, Dragons White,
Dragons Good,rise to fight.
Any way the War goes
Doesn't really matter to me Ð to me.
Tas: Tanis, just look at me!
Found a purse all full of gold!
Oh, it's yours? Well, then I'll hold
Tanis - please let go of me!
I swear I thought you'd thrown it all away!
Sturm: Tanis hey, let him go.
He didn't mean to take your cash.
We must be off to find the Lance tomorrow;
Caramon, Caramon:
Where is Kitiara?
Kitiara: I'm late, to meet my firends.
Sent men to the front line
Greatest power wil be mine.
Good-bye, everybody,I've got to go,
Gonna leave you all behind and lead my troops.
Tanis (ooo-ooo), you deserve to die.
Behind my back you've fallen for Laurana
Laurana: I see a little Qualinesti in your soul,
Tanthalas, Tanthalas, can I be your companion?
The memories you're fighting,
That human woman's frightening me!
Tanis: Kitiara (Kitiara), Kitiara (Kitiara)
Kitiara Uth Matar
A Dragonlord!
Flint: I'm just an old dwarf, everybody bugs me.
Chorus: He's just an old dwarf, but he's still family.
He'll give his life so that we can be free.
Caramon: Easy go, easy come. Everybody thinks I'm dumb.
Chorus: Car-a-mon, we do not think you're dumb.
Caramon: I'm not dumb?
Chorus: Car-a-mon, we do not think you're dumb.
Caramon: I'm not dumb!
Chorus: We do not think you're dumb.
Caramon: I'm not dumb, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum!
Oh, brother Raistlin, brother Raistlin,
Brother Raistlin, where'd you go?
Raistlin: To Takhisis, she's a black robe set aside for me
For me
For me!
[musical interlude, headbanging, etc.]
Sturm: So you think evil dragons can beat the good guys?
So you think you can stab me and leave me to die?
Oh Lady you might do this to me, Lady
But you'll never win out,
You'll never defeat Good and Right!
Tanis: Paladine has triumphed
Check the skies and see.
Evil has no place here
We're free.
