Everything started with my Roleplaying Character "Peacock the bard" and telling his story in some generated songs. To share them with my dungeonmaster and the other players - I started a youtubechannel. Perhaps some other roleplayer would like the songs, or some ungeonmasters could use them for their campaigns...
Then - my character got "the Devil`s Fiddler" - (there ara songs about how that happened), and some songs got real popular on youtube (from my point of view.. more than 100 people listend to one song).
The next step was the Idea of my Dungeonmaster that Mephistopheles would like to make a Motto Party about undead Pirates.. and the channel "explodet"..
(It was great fun - 97 Followers - and I waited for the magical ONE HUNDRED - then: two followers left.. WHYYY? Big drama.. )
It was (and is) great fun, to experiment with youtube, and find out, how to feed the almighty algorithm. So I decidet to go another step further, and send (some of) my songs to a distributor.. and feel like a rockstar ;)
So I hope you enjoy the music here just *like me*,
and I also would enjoy some feedback - If *you like*
about what *you like* , what you dislike, or what *you like* to tell me.
Thanks for listening
Peacock the Bard
Lyrics:
Hoist the sails, it's Christmas season, yo-ho-ho!
Time fer cheer and pirate reason, yo-ho-ho!
Trim the mast and hang the garland
Raise yer tankards, never silent
Oh, a bottle o’ rum, a bottle o’ rum
A pirate's wish on Christmas Day be a bottle o’ rum!
A bottle o' rum, a bottle o' rum
We'll sing o' joy till the mornin' come!
We'll drink an' toast, an' clap an' hum —
All we be wantin's a bottle o' rum!
On Christmas Eve, the waves be rollin', yo-ho-ho!
Storms be fierce, but spirits tollin’, yo-ho-ho!
The stars above like jewels aglow
A compass bright with mistletoe
Oh, a bottle o’ rum, a bottle o’ rum
A pirate’s heart, it stays so warm with a bottle o’ rum!
A bottle o' rum, a bottle o' rum
We'll sing o' joy till the mornin' come!
We'll drink an' toast, an' clap an' hum —
All we be wantin's a bottle o' rum!
To every mate that’s lost at sea, yo-ho-ho!
A toast to them, their souls sail free, yo-ho-ho!
Raise yer mugs to fallen friends
We’ll keep this life until the end
Oh, a bottle o’ rum, a bottle o’ rum
In honor true on Christmas night, a bottle o’ rum!
A bottle o' rum, a bottle o' rum
We'll sing o' joy till the mornin' come!
We'll drink an' toast, an' clap an' hum —
All we be wantin's a bottle o' rum!
So gather round, ye pirate clan, yo-ho-ho!
Raise yer flag an' make a plan, yo-ho-ho!
For Christmas cheer with salt an’ spray
We'll sail the seas an' shout hooray!
Oh, a bottle o’ rum, a bottle o’ rum
A pirate’s gift that’s worth its weight—a bottle o' rum!
A bottle o' rum, a bottle o' rum
We'll sing o' joy till the mornin' come!
We'll drink an' toast, an' clap an' hum —
All we be wantin's a bottle o' rum!
