"There's No Leopard Like Snow Leopard" - The OS X 10.6 Musical!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hepzPo_DAjU

EDIT: It's a video I made for fun... don't take it too seriously! Obviously everyone has their own opinion, but its meant to be taken lightly... so lighten up!

The idea came to me in the shower so I wrote the song and made the video in two days... Lemme know what you think!

EDIT 2: Here are the lyrics!

There’s no Leopard like Snow Leopard,
like no Leopard I know…
Everything about it’s 64-bit,
Gimme 16 billion gigs of RAM,
Safari 4 is now quite crash resistant,
And multi-core is easy to program…

There’s no OS like Mac OS,
like no OS I know…
Expose can now be accessed from the dock!
Ohh so simple, drag and drop,
Put back files that you didn’t want to erase,
And save six gigs of space!

Faster / shut downs / even faster to wake up
Smarter / preview / Now text selection’s not so tough

Redmond has this thing called Windows 7 / It’s nothing but a Windows Vista skin…

There’s no Leopard like Snow Leopard,
like no Leopard I know…
Navigate through folders right from stacks,
Plus assign programs to any space!
Multi-touch for all the older macs,
Even support for Microsoft Exchange!

There’s no OS like Mac OS,
like no OS I know…
Lots of great new features packed in Quick Time 10,
New interface, screen recordin’
I’ll never run a copy of Windows again!
Put your PC in the recycle bin!
So this September, guess what I’m doin,
I’ll upgrade, so upgrade, just upgrade, nice update, for only 29 bucks!

Mods: This isn't spam, so please don't delete. It's very related to OS X and Snow Leopard. If you feel it should be in another sub-forum, then move it...

[rdowns]

Wow, just wow. I think you should stay out of the shower.

[Sky Blue]

I threw up in my mouth a bit.

[tempusfugit]

you're shameless, I'll give you that.

Props on the zeal.

[terriblyjordan]

You should take that video down. I only watch 5 seconds of that, it was just that bad.

[Sky Blue]

embarrassing video,
and you're to blame,
you give Mac users,
a bad name.

[rth231]

Obviously you guys are taking this too seriously... lol
It's meant to be funny! Name me one better song about Snow Leopard...
And thats not my real voice...
You should take that video down. I only watch 5 seconds of that, it was just that bad.
Well the first 5 seconds are just for entertainment!

[rdowns]

It's meant to be funny! Name me one better song about Snow Leopard...

OS X Snow Leopard....

[jessica.]

Oh man. Oh man oh man.

Here's the deal. Whomever made the comment on your video makes zero sense. Nevertheless, ... man oh man. I like snow leopards too but this is too much.

[rth231]

Oh man. Oh man oh man. Here's the deal. Whomever made the comment on your video makes zero sense. Nevertheless, ... man oh man. So I wasn't the only one who didn't understand that comment...

[jessica.]

Nope, all I got was that we're trolls if we comment.

[rth231]

Nope, all I got was that we're trolls if we comment.
I removed it... too confusing. Feel free to comment!

[rdowns]

Tell you what. Let's see if you have any real talent. Post a mashup of you doing Single Lady. :D

Name me one better song about Snow Leopard...

The Fresh OS of Cupertino

Now this is a story all about how
My OS updated all around
And it only took an hour
Well, actually, less
And now I'm rockin'
A 64-bit OS.

*little musical bit*

In west Cupertino, designed and coded,
In the test labs my kernel nearly exploded!
Bug reports, rewrites, and testin' it well
And all keepin' it secret; we're too scared to tell
When a couple of guys from stupid Redmond
Started think they'd be all like James Bond
We kicked 'em out but they saw a little of our heaven
And now they're pushin' out in October Windows Seven.

You got a glimpse at Double-U-D-C
But that's just the start of what Snow Leopard can be
We shaved the code down and we prettied up the UI
We changed to base 10 and said that everyone would lik' (like) it.

Cheap price! Yo, this is nice!
Twenty-nine for an upgrade; Can't beat that price.
And what are the folks at Redmond charging?
Hmm... It might be $500!

But, wait, I hear it's better, fixes and all that...
Is Seven now a threat to me, the cool cat?
I don't think so,
We'll see when we're both out
Hope they're prepared for the Snow Leopard flair!

Well, I...

In September when I come out
I'll have a month's jump on Seven;
That's something I can tout!
I ain't tryin' to cop the market-
Share; well, not ALL of it...
I'm just tryin' to carve out a piece
Of the OS world!

For now I'll twiddle my thumbs while developers work
And tell my designers how to fix up the bugs... jerk.
If anything, I can say my coding is tight;
No room for Blu-ray, maybe some other night!

I'll... come... out to the public at the end of September
And be hailed by the critics as "A Launch To Remember"
Look at my kingdom, I'll finally be there
To sit on my throne of 20% marketshare!

How was that? :cool:

*Nothing in the English language rhymes with "month". Shame.

[BrianKonarsMac]

you all need to relax! I thought it was amusing

[Sky Blue]

Now, that was awesome *claps*

[rth231]

The Fresh OS of Cupertino

Did you just write that on the spot? If so, props on that!

you all need to relax! I thought it was amusingNow, that was awesome *claps*
Yes! Thank you!

Tell you what. Let's see if you have any real talent. Post a mashup of you doing Single Lady. :D

[OttawaGuy]

Change

I'll... come... out to the public at the end of the month
And be hailed by the critics as Apple's first real shunt*

to September, then you'll have more things to rhyme with. ;)

[Tallest Skil]

Did you just write that on the spot?

Yes, I did. I just fired it up in iTunes to listen along while I wrote to get most of the syllables in the right place.

Now, that was awesome *claps*

http://www.gifs.net/Animation11/Science_and_Body/Hands_and_Feet/Clapping.gif

Thanks much.:D

Change *quote*

Yep, you're absolutely right. Better?

[rth231]

Nice one! Props! But stop stealing my thunder :(

[rdowns]

Thunder? Sorry, dude. It was more like a fart.

[Dagless]

Oh. My. Word.

[Abstract]

The idea came to me in the shower....

Are the ideas that you produce while sitting on the toilet s***tier than this?



Anyway, it was funny, so I guess it's not so bad. ;)

Yeah, the video was really dorky, and the lyrics sucked. Sorry.

Was that a pre-existing jazz tune that you sung on top of?

[Dagless]

(I'm trying to get people hyped about Snow Leopard!)
From here it seems you just want people to watch your video.
