Hail, Hail, Hail and Kill!

It's again time for the almost-annual BatMUD Song Contest! The idea is to take
a well known song and to rewrite the lyrics for Bat-theme. The song can be in
finnish or in english (english preferred). You have this month to write the
song, and 1st of march is the last day you can send your work. There will be a
public poll, and the best three participants will win a prize! And even if you
don't win, you will attain eternal glory!

You must send your entry by email to tomba@bat.org. The subject-field of the
email has to be in the following format:
"BATSONG: <your-mud-name>: <mud-song-name> (<original-artist>:
<original-song-name>)"

The body of the email has to be in the following format:

<mud-song-name> (<original-artist>: <original-song-name>)

<rewritten lyrics>


For example, if I rewrote Manowar's song Hail to England, and the new name of
the song would be Hail to BatMUD, I'd send a following email:

-------------------

Subject: BATSONG: Tomba: Hail to BatMUD (Manowar: Hail to England)


Hail to BatMUD (Manowar: Hail to England)

Raise sails head for the open sea
With sails full of wind-our hearts
Overflowwith belief.

The quest for the grail to BatMUD
We sail, with our steel.We
Bring what was lost.If
Lives are the cost, let it be.

Strong she stands-reaching her
Hand.Brave and grant.On BatMUD's
Ground-we were born. Proudly
We return.-To BatMUD's shore.

Hail ,Hail to BatMUD-
Hail, Hail, Hail.

anything extra in to the email.
