Ok, let me review the songs:

 

Altador: Nothing special

Brightvale: I need this song *hits download*

Darigan: I know this song! While I think

is better, it's still a good pick *hits download*

Farieland: I only like Rock and Metal, so it would be best that you DON'T hear what I have to say about this. I know, I'm biased.

Haunted Woods: I had to laugh. You guys chose a classic, but I think

would've fit the horror theme better.

Kiko Lake: I had to laugh at this one too. The reason why is because I heard this just earlier today. Good choice, I like Smash Mouth. *hits download*

Krawk Island: Amazing choice. Fits the pirate theme perfectly! *hits download*

Kreludor: Seems alright. Who performed this song? *has finger on download button*

Lost Desert: Fits the theme, but I'm not sure what to think of it. Sounds somewhat spacey. I think Bye Bye Babylon by Cryoshell would've been better. It has a desert tune if you listen closely.

Maraqua: Who wrote and/or performed this song?? It seems alright, but I think Hammerhead by The Offspring would've fit better. If you listen to the beginning and chorus, you hear a surfer-like tune, which fits a wave, which is Maraqua's nickname. (pay no mind to the music video, I know it makes no sense)

Meridell: Do I hear lasers in the beginning??? Other than that the song somewhat fits.

Moltara: I don't get it. It doesn't fit. I can't think of any songs to fit, but

could be close. (I didn't give a link to the music video for the song because it's rather disturbing)

Mystery Island: Strange, but is passible. Umaga's theme song may or may not have been a better choice.

Roo Island: It's a little off the theme, but is still a good choice

Shenkuu: I saw this one coming, and I must say, EVERYBODY'S STILL KUNG FU FIGHTING!! :P Great choice, one of the few pop songs (if not the only) that I like.

Terror Mountain: It fits the theme, but I personally don't like it.

Tyrannia: I really don't get this. This must be the most off theme.

Virtupets: Missing theme because the linky doesn't work.

 

Overall: Pretty good choices. While some were off (Moltara, Tyrannia, Roo Island), most stood on theme (Shenkuu, Krawk Island, Meridell). And some I simply just loved (Brightvale, Darigan)

 

5 Best songs:

 

1. Darigan

2. Krawk Island

3. Brightvale

4. Kiko Lake

5. Shenkuu (EVERYBODY CONTINUES TO BE KUNG FU FIGHTING!!!)

 

 

5 Worst songs:

 

1. Farieland (not much a surprise coming from me)

2. Moltara (really didn't fit the magma theme)

3. Altador

4. Terror Mountain

5. Tyrannia

The Skenkuu one is absolutely my favorite. I didn't know they had theme songs. This is kind of cool.

I didn't much of like the Altador one though. But still, all of them were fun to listen.

I like the Moltara theme song. It's "St. Elmo's Fire (Man in Motion)." I recognized it because I like old-school music. :) Wikipedia has an article on the song and the original movie where the song is from.

 

I can see a new horizon

Underneath the blazin' sky

I'll be where the eagle's

Flyin' higher and higher

Gonna be your man in motion

All I need is a pair of wheels

Take me where my future's lyin'

St. Elmo's Fire

 

...

 

Just once in his life

A man has his time

And my time is now

And I'm comin' alive

 

I can hear the music playin'

I can see the banners fly

Feel like you're back again

And hope ridin' high

Gonna be your man in motion

All I need is a pair of wheels

Take me where my future's lyin'

St. Elmo's Fire

 

I can climb the highest mountain

Cross the wildest sea

I can feel St. Elmo's Fire burnin' in me

Burnin' in me

Yes, Moltara's is indeed St.Elmo's Fire. Inside The Fire was also an option, but I went with John Parr's classic this year.

 

Altador: It's a classic, c'mon! Here Comes The Sun is just one of the Beatles's best songs. And it fits Altador.

Brightvale: I went to find a song that few had ever listened to. It is one of my favorite songs. Try to guess what it is.

Darigan: AC/DC always fits. :P

Faerieland: it fits the theme for FL, they aren't a rock-type theme.

Haunted Woods: obvious reasons, classic.

Kiko Lake was actually suggested by me by BV fans, but I knew immediately that wouldn't fit BV, so I picked it for KL.

Kreludor - The Killers awesome song.

Krawk Island - classic.

Lost Desert - it's Sting's and was suggested by many people so I went with it. Whilst some may not really like it, it's is quite of a classic and has that Desert theme to it.

Maraqua - Waving Flag by K'naan. It's MQ official song and WAM! actually chose it. You'll hear it a lot this year if you watch the World Cup. ;)

Meridell - I needed to transmit a better sense of Meridell, and I was actually going to go with "The Climb", but this fit better.

Moltara - the most downloaded song until now. It may not be the /best/ fitting song out there, but it works.

Mystery Island - It's Tarzan Boy, how is that strange?

Roo Island - it /is/ a small "town" (island) and he sings about his love for a small "town", hence RI.

Shenkuu - obvious.

TM - I didn't find a lot of stuff, but for who likes Electronic songs will like this.

Tyrannia - I liked it, it went well actually.

Virtupets - link works. ;)

Yes, you have to download it. Each song is nearly 3 to 4 mb. Download it, the songs are worth it. :laughingsmiley:

The songs are indeed very much worth the download! :yes:

 

By way of explanation: there's simply no way our servers could handle the strain of serving downloads for the Altador Cup team songs (which is why the songs are hosted on MediaFire, which doesn't support streaming), let alone host audio streams. If we tried to set up streaming for the songs on our servers, they would very likely explode in a gigantic, fiery ball of smoke, shrapnel, and custard pie, which would result in TDN going down completely. :(

That is because TDN team songs are very popular! Fans just love that feature in our coverage! ^_^

Not exactly. If you hit download, it'll ask you if you want to open or save it. Open it if you just want to hear it. But save if you want to download. That's what I did

 

Virtupets - link works. ;)

 

It didn't work for me. I mean when I click on the Virtupets icon, it won't work.

 

People should take into my choices. If anyone can, listen to them and compare my thoughts with the official song choices.

 

Oh, and I made a mistake. Krawk Island's theme is my 2nd favorite. I'll edit that now.

Hey guys, I have heard this Darigan theme song somewhere, but can't remember though. My brother has this song. He always sings it. Is it by any chance AC/DC?

Altador-I love the beatles, and this is one of my favorite songs of theres. Here comes the sun, doodoodoodoo it's alright...

Brightvale-I'VE NEVER HEARD IT BEFORE, BUT I LOVE IT!

Darigan-AC/DC is great, and this is one of their best, great choice!

Faerieland-I actually like this song! and the lyrics fit FL like "you haven't seen the best of me" which is exactly the real theme of FL right now

Haunted Woods-'CAUSE THIS IS THRILLER, THRILLER NIGHT AND NO ONE'S GOING TO SAVE YOU FROM THE BEAST THAT'S ABOUT TO STRIKE, GREAT CHOICE :D

Kiko Lake- one of my favorite songs, I know all the words! great choice again!

Krawk Island-fits the theme perfectly, I love it

Kreludor- love it, perfectly fits kreludor and the position they're in, i love this song

Lost Desert-fits the theme, and has a nice groove to it, awesome choice

Maraqua-great song, one of my favorites, really reminds me of underwater

Meridell-horses are yes for meridell, but lasers? o_O Anyway, the rest is great for meridell's theme

Moltara-lyrics fit the theme but not the background music

Mystery Island-perfect for the tropical island theme, nice song too

Roo Island-really does fit RI, I really like it

Shenkuu-perfect, who isn't kung fu fighting fast as lightning a little bit frightening with expert timing?

Hi! I've been listening to the songs, as I told Mireia I would (happy?), so here goes my review:

 

Faerieland: one degree over perfection, I agree with Mireia, I can see those faeries with their hairbands and leggings jumping all over the place! XD

 

Shenkuu, Krawk Island, Kiko Lake, Maraqua: fun and fitting, they're just perfect (but not as much as faerieland XD)

 

Darigan Citadel, Brightvale, Meridell, Mystery Island, Haunted Woods: they're very fitting, but somehow, don't get quite the same reaction as the others. It's still a high score.

 

Lost Desert, Terror Mountain, Kreludor: the songs fit, but no high score here. They sound a bit as if you couldn't think of anything else.

 

Virtupets: the link doesn't work.

 

Tyrannia, Moltara: I really don't know what to think about these ones.

 

Altador: I'm not sure if it's a hit or a miss. I guess I was expecting something more 'olympic'. Even if it meant leaving The Beatles aside and putting 'Charriots of Fire' on their place (that sounds like a blasphemy, doesn't it?)

 

Roo Island: It's a miss. Roo Island is not 'a small town', it's the casino over the rainbow. If you play dice-a-roo, you'll probably end up wondering what those blumaroos had for breakfast, and whether it was legal or not. I mean: "122NP is a lot of money!", "tralala!", and that weird obsession with neobadges... Not to mention their king is a jester. I think you should have gone for a Carnaval de Rio sound, it's like the faeries and 'fame': I can see ten thousand blumaroos dancing 'Samba de Janeiro' XD

 

So, overall, you did a great job. And, Mireia, a veure si et mullas!

Ok, I'm working on my reviews, but my general opinion is half-half. There are some great fitting songs, but there are others that doesn't really like me...

I feel a general lack of sportive epicness, if you know what I mean.

 

And Tyrannia should have something more agressive!

 

Thanks Fea, però és mulles no mullas ;) The ortographic avenger will visit you tonight!

Yes it's AC/DC, and one of their best songs ever.

 

Meridell - I needed to transmit a better sense of Meridell, and I was actually going to go with "The Climb", but this fit better.

 

If you chose The Climb, I would forever lose respect for you and Meridell.

Ooh, I didn't even know there was songs!

I'm such a music dork that I've got to review them now :laughingsmiley:

 

ALTADOR: Love the beatles, totally fits- the lyrics and the vibe of the song.

BRIGHTVALE: Nice song, very calm and medieval. Like it! I was sort of hoping that I wouldn't like it because Bat for Lashes has such an intense, medieval court sort of feel; but both choices (MD as well) are stellar so I can't complain :P

DARIGAN: Perfect! I laughed a bit because my kid sister is Darigan and much more Miley Cyrus than AC/DC :laughingsmiley:.

FAERIELAND: Reading everyone's comments from before I was expecting some sort of bubblegum girlpop. I was pleasantly surprised and immediately sucked into fame flashback mode. Love it!

HAUNTED WOODS: I so expected this, but its too perfect to pass up.

KIKO LAKE: Love the song, great for such an underdog team.

KRAWK ISLAND: Classic, no complaints.

KRELUDOR: I like the killers and the lyrics fit. Solid choice.

LOST DESERT: I really like this one, its got a very arabian, desert vibe to it. I was half hoping for 'walk like an egyptian' (80s pop love), but I surprisingly like this better.

MARAQUA: Okay so I obviously knew this song, but I turned it on thinking it was for MI and I was like 'holy perfect love match'. I was literally smiling, alone on my couch, because the beat and lyrics are so happy and so MI. But then I realized it wasn't for MI...I think it really should be! It works for MQ as well, but not as well! The beat is so islandy, there is island chanting, and cmon- 'singing songs under the sun'? SO MI! My personal choice for MQ would be "The Ocean" by Against Me- good beat for an AC anthem, and the lyrics are perfect.

MYSTERY ISLAND: Should be Waving Flag! Please?

MERIDELL: I like how it's so different from BV but still has the medieval vibe to it; I love how much more badass this one is which is perfect for MD.

MOLTARA: Okay, so I also recognized it because I like old school movies. Love the song and if you look at the lyrics it does fit really well. I think the only problem would be it probably isn't appealing to the steam punk crowd, and that's a big part of Moltara.

ROO ISLAND: I like the song itself and thinking of roo island as the small town I get it/like it in context. But I really think Weezer's 'Island in the Sun' would be super- i'm imagining happy Roos bouncing around and sunning themselves.

SHENKUU: Lmao. There's no argument against this. So perfect.

TERROR MOUNTAIN: I sort of a have a soft spot for owl city, and the lyrics couldn't be more fitting. I can see why it would annoy some people, but I like it.

TYRANNIA: Loved it! I think you have to listen more carefully, but the 'roll me away' made me think of huge stone wheels and rocks all rolling around and cruising down the plateau.

VIRTUPETS: It definately works, very techno-space-stationy. But...Intergalactic by the Beastie Boys? Seriously perfect for a space station.

 

Hehe, I got way too into this. I think you did a really great job overall, its definitely a super fun, pumped-up playlist and that's what ultimately matters ^_^
