CAGiversary!

I was thinking about holding a contest for people to submit entries for a CAG theme song. I wanted to post it here and see what everyone else thought? I was going to have the contest run until about the end of May for anyone that wanted to enter and then have a prize for 1st place (haven't decided what yet), but most likely a videogame (I'd make it a good one).

Anyone have any ideas/comments/suggestions about the idea for this contest?

EDIT:

Okay as it stands right now, the contest is running until the end of May (May 31st) and you guys can be as creative as possible to try and record a song (with music) and submit it on here by then.

Currently I've only decided to give a prize out for first place because I think that we may only get 1 good song from this contest.

Here are the current prizes:
1st place: SEALED COPY OF SUIKODEN IV (AS OF 4/12/06)
2nd place: The joy of coming in 2nd!
3rd place: A pat on the back by your imaginary girlfriend!
 
I think that's an awesome idea. I'm going to start on one today.
Speaking of music contests, my band is in one right now with MTVU, where we win a record deal and music video if we win. We made it to the top 25 out of 1,000 bands, so I'm pretty proud. If any of you want to help a fellow CAG out, here's the link:

All votes would be greatly appreciated!

Any ideas for what kind of song the CAG song should be? Could it be any genre? This is gonna' be fun.

JOSH
 
OK! This is my entry if there even is a contest......

If we're motivated enough, my friends and I will do a CAG song based off "TNT" by AC/DC with real instruments since we're a damn good band.
 
I was gonna hit Best Buy until I got cheap
I gonna get up and find the wallet but then I got cheap
my credit ain't messed up and my bills don't creep
- cause I got cheap [repeat 3X]

I was gonna go to Wallmart before I got cheap
I coulda splurged and I coulda overspent but I got cheap
The stuff I bought I better have the receipt
- cause I got cheap [repeat 3X]

I was gonna buy a ring but then I got cheap
Maybe a house or a dog, but I got cheap
I'm forced to flip even tho it's beat
- cause I got cheap [repeat 3X]

I was gonna hit Ebay before I got cheap
MIB some SNES RPGs but then I got cheap
Now I'm hitting garage sales, feeling the heat.
- cause I got cheap [repeat 3X]

I was gonna pay my car note until I got cheap
I was gonna gamble on the boat but then I got cheap
now the psp is collecting dust and the preorder makes me weep
- because I got cheap[repeat 3X]

That's enough for now I think
 
That jaket/stealthy seal rap is embarassing. How old is he 12?

Any cheap deals on some cotton balls? My ears are bleeding.

on behalf of hundreds of users, i concure!
 
[quote name='yukine']Hell, maybe even CheapyD can use the winner's theme song as an opening for CAGcast.[/quote]Absolutely.... at the very least.

[quote name='sevdustflyer']That jaket/stealthy seal rap is embarassing.[/quote] Come on, it's so bad it's good!

"With the friendly advice from another cheap-o
You could probably find a discount at the home depot"


That's gold...or something.
 
I actually wanted a recorded song. So I could play it in my mp3 players & stuff like that. Sorry I wasn't more specific I was just seeing if people were interested in the idea.

[quote name='bearcatjosh']Do you just want lyrics, or did you want a fully recorded song? I think I might have read too much into it. Hell, I'll record anyway.[/QUOTE]

EDIT: That song by Jaket is a good example of a recorded song, except I'd rather have a better song than that. I'd like to hear some of the other lyrics that were put on here recorded. I still haven't thought of what I'd give first place, but I'm sure it'll be good.
 
Okay, so I have until the end of May to learn how to play an instrument, learn how to sing, and write a song. Now where is that recorder from elementary school?

Who's CAG[/FONT][/QUOTE]

This probably isn't what you where thinking when you typed that out but I white boy rapped it out with my crappy mic I got from Amazon for 9 dollars and my copy of Audacity.

I pieced it together out of 2 takes so it isn't the greatest but it is semi-decent for what I was going for. Also it was midnight when I recorded that so I tried to keep my voice down so I wouldn't wake up the family. If anybody wants to put it to music feel free too.

-edit Man, I just listened to StealthySeal's (Jaket) song and it kicks the crap out of mine. :( He even put music to it...looks like I was 2 years to late for a white boy rap about CAG :(
 
Hey ODD, I think your song has potential (since I think your voice is better than Jaket's). But you do need some music in there to keep the beat.

Maybe people aren't submitting entries because I haven't thought of a prize yet? I've been trying to think of a good one, so far I can only come up with my sealed copy of Suikoden IV that I have lying around. I'm trying to come up with something better than that, but hey no one's really been entering the contest.

You guys have until the end of May to submit something good, I say get cracking! :)

Ah, looks like I'll have to bust out my copy of Acid Pro and try to whip something up. :lol:
 
BUMP for any new songs? I hope so, I guess no one wants a free game!?! Isn't this CAG? If no one enters the contest with any serious entries then we'll have no winner...has that ever happened? Anyways, wake up and start singing!
