I was thinking I would try singing it and recording the lyrics. See where words might not fit in song while they do in what is there already...
Already I feel that the first and last line of
For it's hey-di-lee hi, and ho-di-lee hok,
The dwarves strike the earth and make love to the rock!
Oh, Blood for the Blood God, more blood for Armok!
It’s a hey-di-lee hi, and ho-di-lee hok.
do not flow with the music that Retro has released already. Nor does the wording of most of the verses fit the rythem. the beat is a bit to fast in some places and a bit to slow in others to fit the words 100%. I will see when I get home in a few days what I can work out. Granted I don't have a great signing voice, but hey neither do most dwarves.. ^_^
Though how thick of a Scots accent you think. Personally I had the Thick Scot accent that most Dwarves get, I know that they were designed off of the Scot/Viking Culture but none the less, a little less is what I will be aiming for. Granted I don't have such a good Scot accent to begin with either...
I won't be drunk when singing so don't ask. For one thing I don't get drunk easily (though I rarely drink anyway) and I want to be checking everything cleanly...
What would be great would be something of a Passover song, where one starts then another takes over after the corus and so on. All of them sing that though...
