Thank You Bungie - An Ode To Halo 3
Thanks Bungie for making a great game. You catch a lot of crap for some of the decisions you make. Halo 3 is the only game I own. It's the reason I bought my X-Box360. Keep up the good work on whatever you are working on for the future.
Whichever blog / forum you saw this on, please post on the thread so it will stay alive. Thank you!

*** and the lyrics are ***
I love you Bungie
Because you first loved me
I am so very glad because you gave me Halo 3
I love to melee with the ball
I love to get headshots
I love to wield the grav hammer and deflect nades and rocks
Halo 3 - the best game I'm convinced
Halo 3 - unique in the sense that we've got
Digitalph33r and Grifball.
T-squared (we're fragging like a pro)
Thank you Bungie, thanks for Halo 3
I try to go to sleep at night
But Halo's on my mind
I find myself on Xbox live when the clock strikes midnight
If I didn't have a wife I'd ask Halo to marry me
We could honeymoon on Avalanche
or Blackout's library
I love capture the flag on pit
I love slayer on narrows
Especially at the start where grenades fly like arrows
I'm not fond of HC snowbound
I guess it doesn't matter
I miss the shotgun but there's still
A ghost to go and splatter
Why does my BR not 4-shot?
Why can't I stand playing swat?
Can I have host for life
If I pay you with alcohol or brownies?

Bobbie Gentry - Ode To Billy Joe
You know the story. Billy Joe throws something off a bridge and later decides to go after it. Sounds like a good case for "Law & Order".

Spiderman 2 Intro Weird Al Yankovic Ode To A Superhero
I took the INTRO to Spider-man 2, re-cut with scenes from Spider-man 1, to the song "Ode To A Superhero" by Weird Al Yankovic. Thanks Weird Al and creators of Spider-man. For those who keep thinking this should be the Spiderman1 intro, watch the intro to Spider-man 2 again.
(The Original)
Since so many people ask what song this parodies, it's: Piano Man, by Billy Joel.

Leonard Bernstein performs Beethoven's Ode to Joy
Leonard Bernstein with the Vienna Philharmonic performs Beethoven's Ode to Joy. Notice how dramatic his conducting is; it's pretty funny. Because of Youtube limitations, I split this piece up into 3 sections. This is Part 1/3. I highly recommend sticking around for the choral reprise of the first verse in Part 2/3 and the prestissimo finale in Part 3/3.
Soloists are Gwyneth Jones, Shirley Verrett, Placido Domingo, and Martti Talvela.
This first video clip is divided into the following sections:
0:00-3:36 Bernstein's introduction
1:27-2:15 The Ode to Joy played solemnly by Cello and Contrabass
2:15-3:04 A lighter, sweeter variation now including Viola and Bassoon
3:04-3:51 Larger, more expressive second variation with addition of 1st and 2nd Violins
3:52-4:38 Triumphant and majestic third variation utilizing entire orchestra. Instruments added: Flute, Oboe, Clarinet, contrabassoon, cornet, trombone, and timpani
4:39-5:31 Dizzying flight of passion including the brief introduction of a blithe tune that is almost immediately interrupted by a thunderous cadence
5:33-6:30 The bass introduces the chorus to the audience
6:30-9:17 The Ode to Joy theme is now replayed with the significant inclusion of the chorus singing Schiller's poem.
German words and English translation:
Baritone Solo:
O Freunde, nicht diese Töne!
Oh friends, not these sounds!
Sondern lasst uns angenehmere
Rather let us sing more
anstimmen und freudenvollere.
pleasant ones, and more full of joy.
Choral Bass join in:
Freude! Freude!
Joy! Joy!
Baritone Solo:
Freude, schöner Götterfunken
Joy, beautueous spark of divinity,
Tochter aus Elysium,
Daughter of Elysium
Wir betreten feuertrunken,
We enter drunk with fire
Himmlische, dein Heiligtum!
Heavenly One, your sanctuary!
Deine Zauber binden wieder
Thy magic power reunites,
Was die Mode streng geteilt;
All that custom has strictly divided
Alle menschen werden Brüder,
All men become brothers
Wo dein sanfter Flügel weilt.
Where your gentle wing abides.
Chorus sans Soprano:
Deine Zauber binden wieder
Thy magic power reunites,
Was die Mode streng geteilt;
All that custom has strictly divided
Alle menschen werden Brüder,
All men become brothers
Wo dein sanfter Flügel weilt.
Where your gentle wing abides.
Solo Alto, Tenor, and Baritone sans Soprano:
Wem der grosse Wurf gelungen,
Whoever has been so fortunate,
Eines Freundes Freund zu sein;
To be the friend of a friend
Solo Soprano enters, Alto, Tenor, and Baritone continue:
Wer ein holdes Weib errungen,
He who has obtained a dear wife,
Mische seinen Jubel ein!
Add his jubilation!
Ja, wer auch nur eine Seele
Yes, whoever also one soul
Sein nennt auf dem Erdenrund!
Can call his own in the earthly round!
Und wer's nie gekonnt, der stehle
And who never could, he should steal
Weinend sich aus diesem Bund!
Weeping from this fellowship!
All Chorus responds (Bass one beat ahead):
Ja, wer auch nur eine Seele
Yes, whoever also one soul
Sein nennt auf dem Erdenrund!
Can call his own in the earthly round!
Und wer's nie gekonnt, der stehle
And who never could, he should steal
Weinend sich aus diesem Bund!
Weeping from this fellowship!
Tenor and Baritone:
Freude trinken alle Wesen
All beings drink joy
An den Brüsten der Natur;
At the breasts of Nature;
Alto enters:
Alle Guten, alle Bösen
All things good, all things evil
Folgen ihrer Rosenspur.
Follow her rosy trail.
Soprano enters:
Küsse gab sie uns und Reben,
Kisses gave she us and wine,
Einen Freund, geprüft im Tod;
A friend, proven even in death;
Wollust ward dem Wurm gegeben,
Ecstasy is granted even to the worm
Und der Cherub steht vor Gott.
And the cherub stands before God
All Chorus responds:
Küsse gab sie uns und Reben,
Kisses gave she us and wine,
Einen Freund, geprüft im Tod;
A friend, proven even in death;
Wollust ward dem Wurm gegeben,
Ecstasy is granted even to the worm
Und der Cherub steht vor Gott.
And the cherub stands before God
Und der Cherub steht vor Gott.
And the cherub stands before God
(Alto a beat ahead) steht vor Gott.
vor Gott.
vor Gott.

Leonard Bernstein performs Beethoven's Ode to Joy - Finale
Leonard Bernstein conducts the Vienna Philharmonic in Beethoven's Ode to Joy. This is the final part of the piece, which contains the incredible Prestissimo Finale.
This portion of the movement begins with the contrapuntal union of the Ode to Joy and the Church Theme from the previous clip by the full chorus.
After the choral fugue, the soloists return in a lighter, more carefree rendition of the Ode to Joy theme (2:32). Seizing on their excitement, the chorus join the soloists in the song of joy (3:10). Soon, however, the chorus falls silent as the soloists reflect one final time on the divine inspiration for joy and brotherhood with heart-rendingly beautiful cadenzas (4:13).
These cadenzas lead us to the Prestissimo finale. After a silence and a quick crescendo of strings (5:18-5:27), the entire cast, every chorus member and every player down to the triangle, launches into the finale with guns blazing. After one more interruption by a gigantic, surreal Maestoso (6:14-6:37), the orchestra charges full speed ahead to the final cadence.

Leonard Bernstein performs Beethoven's Ode to Joy - 2/3
Leonard Bernstein conducts the Vienna Philharmonic in Beethoven's Ode to Joy. This is the 2nd of 3 clips of this performance.
It is structurally divided into four components.
1. A Turkish March with a tenor solo. (0:00-1:50)
2. A breathtaking instrumental double fugue. (1:51-3:22)
3. A reprise of the famous first verse. (3:23-4:35) (This is one of the most dramatic and celebrated parts of the Ninth.)
4. A new sacred theme different from the Ode to Joy. (4:37-8:44)
I've included words and translation:
Allegro assai vivace

Froh, froh, wie seine Sonnen
Happily, happily, like his suns
seine Sonnen fliegen, froh,

Through Heaven's splendid firmament,
Laufet, Brüder, eure Bahn,
Run, Brothers, your course.
Laufet, Brüder, eure Bahn,
Run, Brothers, your course.
Freudig, wie ein Held zum Siegen,
Joyfully, like a hero towards victory.
Wie ein Held zum Siegen,
Like a hero towards victory.
Laufet, Brüder, eure Bahn.

Choral 1st Tenor, 2nd Tenor, and Bass:
Laufet, Brüder, eure Bahn.

Freudig, wie ein Held zum Siegen,
Joyfully, like a hero towards victory.
(Solo Tenor re-enters)

Where your gentle wing abides.
