The Miko's Song Thread [spoilers]

[BisectedBrioche]

I remember there was one like this when Roy started his dirt nap and that went quite well so...here we go.

[RobbyPants]

Doesn't there have to be a song first? :smalltongue:

I seem to remember one from the Wizard of Oz being quite suiting:


Ding Dong the Witch is Dead!

[Dr._Weird]

I think the funeral dirge will do nicely. I'm gonna miss her, she was my favorite part of the comic. It was admirable that she managed to make half the OOTS board act like small children.

[Wraithy]

perhaps a lymeric?

[Kurald Galain]

Waiting to be recognized
Quiet applause will do
They shower you in flowers
When they bury you

-- Brave, by Marillion

[Yahoo_Serious]

How bout this (see Peter Gabriel, "Biko")

Comic #464
Azure City under the gun
Everything was all screwed up
In throne room number one
Oh Miko, Miko, because Miko
Oh Miko, Miko, because Miko
Shojo Hinjo, Shojo Hinjo
-The b**** is dead

Though she tried to pray at night
Her armor it was gray
The Sapphire Guard is blue and white
And the Celestial Realms so far away
Oh Miko, Miko, because Miko
Oh Miko, Miko, because Miko
Shojo Hinjo, Shojo Hinjo
-The b**** is dead

You can blow out a candle
But you can't blow out a fire
Once the flames begin to catch
Property values won't go higher
Oh Miko, Miko, because Miko
Shojo Hinjo, Shojo Hinjo
-The b**** is dead

And the eyes of Miko are
crosses now
crosses now

[Yahoo_Serious]

Goodbye Miko M
Though the Twelve Gods made you fall
You had the grace to hold yourself
While your legs were down the hall
The Sapphire Guard came calling
When you were but a young lass
You became a paladin
And they made you change your class

And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a stick was up your a**
Always knowing you were correct
No matter what would pass
And Belkar would have liked to have killed you
But so would many of your fans
Your body blew up long before
They ever had the chance

Loneliness was tough
The toughest role you ever played
Shojo created a monster
And pain was the price you paid
Even when you died
Oh the boards still hounded you
All the comic had to say
Was that Miko was split in two

And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a stick was up your a**
Always knowing you were correct
No matter what would pass
And Belkar would have liked to have killed you
But so would many of your fans
Your body blew up long before
They ever had the chance

Goodbye Miko M
Though you saved the goblin and the lich
We see you as something as more than uptight
More than just some ex-paladin b****

[Spiryt]

I guess that i can just say:

Farewell Miko.

Really i wasn't Miko lover, she was awful b****, indeed.

But when she said: "Will... will I get to see Windstriker again" she appeared as sympathetic character to me.
More tragic than hateful, really.

So R.I.P., Miko
" You are gone but you are not forgotten"

[LordVader]

Pretty good.:smallsmile:
Personally, I hope she stays gone. I'd rather have Roy back.

[BisectedBrioche]

Or perhaps;

yo listen up here's a story
about an unstable girl that lived in a blue world
and all day and all night and everything she sees
is just blue like her inside and outside
blue her armour with a blue cape
and a blue mount/pet
and everything is blue for her and herself
and everybody around
cos she don't want nobody to listen to

I'm no longer blue then I went and died [x10]

I have blue armour with a blue cape
blue is the colour of all that I wore
blue are the streets and all the spells are blue
I nearly had a boyfriend and he is so blue
blue are the people here that walk around
blue like my mount/pet, he's standing outside
blue are the words I say and what I think
blue are the feelings that live inside me.

I'm no longer blue then I went and died [x10]

I was blue (if I went blackguard I would die)

[Kesnit]

Very nice, Yahoo_Serious.



Why should Roy be the only one who gets a "Oh Danny Boy" tribute?

Oh fallen one, The 12, The 12 are calling
From far above, oh will you heard their song?
Your life is gone, and all your powers with it
But you, but you can move and carry on.

Your name will ring and echo through the city
And Belkar's rage will follow you e'er more
Because he couldn't get to you to kill you
Oh fallen one, oh fallen one, covered in gore.

And when you go and meet Roy in the next place
And see he's Good, as only Good can be
Then will you stop and think about mistakes made
And consider what much change for you to see?

Then will you come back to this Plane we live on
And live again, this time without the pole
T'was up your rear, and perhaps gain redemption
And earn again loved Windstriker and become whole.

[ObadiahtheSlim]

Ashes to Ashes
Dust To Dust
We Commit Miko
To the Earth's Crust.

[Yeril]

I heard somthing much similar to this on a different comic but it still made me laugh, Im a miko fan personaly but still I think this is adaquate

Azure's gem went smashy smashy.

:smallbiggrin:

[BisectedBrioche]

Hurray for Limariks;

There once was a paladin named Miko
Who assassinated her liege Shojo
Then she smashed her gate
Which blew up in her face
Now she's feeling a bit late

[TinSoldier]

By Simple Plan -- one of my favorite songs:

I open my eyes
I try to see but I'm blinded by the white light.
I can’t remember how
I can’t remember why
I'm lying here tonight
And I can’t STAND the pain
And I can’t make it go away
No I can’t STAND the pain


*CHORUS*
How could this happen to me
I've made my mistakes
got nowhere to run
The night goes on as I’m fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me

Everybody’s screaming
I try to make a sound but no one hears me
I’m slipping off the edge
I’m hanging by a thread
I wanna start this over again
So I try to hold
On to a time when
Nothing mattered
And I can’t explain
What happened and I can’t erase the things that I’ve done
No I can’t

*CHORUS*
How could this happen to me
I've made my mistakes
got nowhere to run
The night goes on as I’m fading away
I’m sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me

I've made my mistakes
got nowhere to run
The night goes on as I’m fading away
I’m sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to meThis is now Miko's song.

[Bozidar]

(The Streets of Laredo)

As I walked out, on the streets of Azure City
As I walked out in Azure City one day
I spied a poor paladin wraped in grey linen
All wraped in grey linen, as cold as the clay

"I can see by your outfit, that you are a Paladin"
These words she did say, as I boldly walked by
"Come and sit down beside me, and hear my sad story
For i'm severed straight through, and i'm dying today"

"Twas once in the saddle, I used to go riding
Once in the saddle I used to go jumping
First to conclusions, and then to accusations
But i'm severed straight through, and i'm dying today"

"Let six solem Paladins come carry my coffin
Let six handsom squires come carry my pall
Throw bunches of roses all over my coffin
Throw roses to deaded the clods as they fall"

"Oh, beat the drum slowly, and play the fife lowly
And play the dead march, as you carry me along
Take me to the green valley and earth o'er me
For I'm a poor paladin, and I know I've done wrong"

[Snipers_Promise]

How about The Patriot Game (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_mfTC--wYo). I think it captures Miko perfectly.

[TinSoldier]

When I was just a lad of ten, my father said to me,
Come here and learn a lesson from the lovely Miyazaki.
Dont put your faith in love, my boy, my father said to me,
I fear youll find that love is like the lovely Miyazki.

[BisectedBrioche]

Miko was a member of the IRA?

[Ridureyu]

Irish songs don't really fit somebody named Miko Miyazaki.

I was going to compose Haiku, but all of mine ended up being about food.

I look at my food.

Mournfully, I hunger now.

But the phone has rung.

[lavidor10]

Who knows what you were thinking when your sword cut through
The wise old man on the throne of blue.
Now you have fallen, and destroyed a gate too,
But as you have found, in Azure City, throne cleaves you.

Well, we have had a Bicko, I challenge someone to do a Hey Mickey :smallbiggrin:

[Liliedhe]

Return this girl to her gods' breast
Beyond the wild, impartial skies;
Grant to her a warrior's rest
And set the last spark of her eyes
Free from the smothering clouds of wars
Upon the torches of the stars.
Let the last surge of her breath
Take refuge in the cradling air
Above the dreams of ravens where
Only the hawk remembers death.
Then let her shade to her gods rise
Beyond the wild, impartial skies

Not good, I know. But it's a very beautiful farewell for a warrior...

[Totally Guy]

Fight lies
Up in the spire
Fight lies
How lose you lose the trail?
How can the truth that shone so knightly
Suddenly become stale?
White lies

[RocketBard]

Miko is in her grave

She died doing her duty

What a tragic death.

[Bozidar]

Irish songs don't really fit somebody named Miko Miyazaki.do irish songs fit a black skinned character name "roy", in your opinion? :)

[ThorFluff]

Who knows what you were thinking when your sword cut through
The wise old man on the throne of blue.
Now you have fallen, and destroyed a gate too,
But as you have found, in Azure City, throne cleaves you.

ARGH! SIGGED FOR AWESOMNESS!

[TinSoldier]

Return this girl to her gods' breast
Beyond the wild, impartial skies;
Grant to her a warrior's rest
And set the last spark of her eyes
Free from the smothering clouds of wars
Upon the torches of the stars.

Take refuge in the cradling air
Above the dreams of ravens where
Only the hawk remembers death.
Then let her shade to her gods rise
Beyond the wild, impartial skies

Not good, I know. But it's a very beautiful farewell for a warrior...That was beautiful! I think that you underestimate yourself.

Oh, and I think that I will follow Thorfluff's lead and sig part of it as well, with your permission.

Now you have fallen, and destroyed a gate too,
But as you have found, in Azure City, throne cleaves you.This was pretty good too.

[delguidance]

To be nice...

The Lonely Shepard by Zamfir is in a lot of kung fu movies and Kill Bill

To be mean

Hell by the Squirell Nut Zippers

The D and the A and the M and the N and the A and the T and the ION. Lose your face, lose your name, then get fitted for a suit of flame.

::Sways side to side holding up a lit cigarette lighter::

[Razzle Bathbone]

Curve (my favourite band nobody's ever heard of) does a particular kind of angst which, in my opinion, hits the right note for Miko. It's hard to make out their lyrics a lot of the time, but the music in "Cherry" (one of their early singles) is perfect for her death scene, her desire to have been right about all that stuff she was wrong about, and her desire to be with Windstriker again.

"I've been waiting for the stars to change
So we'll talk again
I've been patient for the sun to change
It's my need for you"

[BisectedBrioche]

do irish songs fit a black skinned character name "roy", in your opinion? :)

It does make slightly more sense IMO ¬_¬

[Alysar]

do irish songs fit a black skinned character name "roy", in your opinion? :)

What? You've never heard of 'Black Irish'?

And 'Roy' is a Gaelic name.

[Firestar27]

I heard somthing much similar to this on a different comic but it still made me laugh, Im a miko fan personaly but still I think this is adaquate

I wanted to do that!!!
Saturday Morning Breakfast cereal.

Hey, can we get someone to sing one the songs posted here and put a link to the mp3?

[OOTS_Rules.]

Dang, my Ode to Roy thread is finally popular!!

I can't believe that Miko is now dead,
Got blasted out of a castle, body separated from head.
What will we all do now, our board's hot topic now no more?
We can't by another at the grocery store.
So who will take up the mantle, and try to kill the Order of the Stick?
We need another paladin, one that acts like a ****.
If Thog was that new paladin it would be really fun,
But that is just impossible because he's evil and dumb (no offence)

[nifler]

Words cannot be used to describe this, but they go something like this... Oh. My. God. Wow. Wowowow. Wow, and so on and so forth. I am putting this in my sig, 'cause it's awesome like that. Full credit and stuff, but still, WOW.

[yoshi927]

"We Are the Champions", sticking to the original lyrics. Other than that, the poem thing by Liliedhe was awesome. There are a few lines from "Wheel of Time" that fit;


Life is a dream

All dreams must end.


Wash the spears, while the sun rides high
Wash the spears, while the sun rides high
Wash the spears, while the sun falls low
Wash the spears, who fears to die
Was the spears, no one I know
(Swords, perhaps, in Miko's case)


And dance with Jak o' the Shadows.

[Snipers_Promise]

Then theres a song by someone i forget who. Think it was called the meaning of life or I want to get physco.
