Legend of Zelda ... with lyrics

*checks pulse*

Huh, what do you know, I am alive?

*blows dust off LJ*

Once you take a break from blogging, it can be hard to get back into it. You end up waiting until you have something EPIC to post about. And how often does that come along?

Fortunately I stumbled across the catchiest video game music vid since The Guild's "Do You Wanna Date My Avatar?" ... and felt compelled to share it with you.

What if the Legend of Zelda theme had lyrics? And was sung by a fake old man (complete with a fake beard that blows in the wind) in a quasi rock opera style?* Very few things are more epic than that.

Note: If you are old enough to have played the original Legend of Zelda, you probably don't need this warning, but there is some strong language in this video. Don't play it in front of your parents, unless they are fine with the MF word and/or are too technologically inept to email me. Also, near the end, there is a still photo of two giraffes about to get it on. Excelsior.

I could do without the "hey Link, you just might get laid" message, but that's because I prefer the "Excuuuuuse me, princess" version of the Link/Zelda relationship. (Wow, how annoying was that clip?)

And! If you liked Zelda with Lyrics, you MUST WATCH Brentalfloss's Megaman 3 with lyrics.** It is awesome. It includes such fine & insightful commentary as:

As for robot help
Dogs are much preferred
'Cause I can't do sh*t
With a robot bird

Rock on, Megaman. ♥

*When I was a kid I bought a sort-of-realistic bearded-old-man Halloween mask, for use in videos in the pre-YouTube age. It was one of my most prized possessions. (No, rly.) So this kind of ridiculousness speaks to my soul.
**Same language warning applies.
