Do you remember Urban Blitz video?
Do you remember Kossu singing his song about the Junkers 52? "Rolling rolling rolling..."
Well, this is not anything like it.
But it is a wonderful song for the virtual pilots ;-)
It started from the VLeLv Icebreakers squadron contest, "tell about your most glorious combat". Lark didn't submit a story - he submitted a poem. And what a poem. It inspired one of the other members of Icebreakers, Modo, and here is the result. Song written around the poem.
Shotgun Plane
You can download it from:

Please note, Netscape browsers seem to download the song broken. Dunno why. Try using IE or some download manager if the resulting song doesn't play well.

SHOTGUN PLANE
Written by Lark
Here's my story
from my days of glory
It's the one I don't remember
it was ninety-eight december
They used to call me elvis
nothing to do with my pelvis
I used to drive my Spit
I didn't give a toejam
About nags for alt dweebing
after all THEY were bleeding
I soared high and pounced
and soon was kill announced
When you drive a Spit
you know when you hit
When the D is zero
It's easy to be a hero
Get close
start to hose
It's a shotgun ride
Stay clean
get mean
Forget your pride
There's no mercy in the skies
tho' I still hear their cries
Can imagine their despair
whining "this ain't fair"
The newbies I was killing
all they were willing
to mess with the big boys
to become more than toys
Get close
start to hose
It's a shotgun ride
Stay clean
get mean
No place to hide
Nowadays I fly a desk
I guess it's for the best
My heart goes to all my victims
who thought they were good at flightsims

Maybe this could be a WarBirds anthem? ;-) iEN guys, mention this in your pages? ;-)
