The International Anthem of TPM!

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

We are TPM, and we love our site! And I think I figured out something the green forum and #001-garden never got! The International Anthem!

Before someone says this belongs to FanFic Poetry Corner, I must point out it's more like a general project everyone may want to be involved. I think it would be nice to have cool lyrics, containing many languages as we all are able to type! We could even record it together, create a Youtube video, possibilities are limitless!

We can compose it ourselves, mix Nobuo Uematsu or Koji Kondo, you name it, but perhaps the most logical and easiest solution would be a piece of music from Pokemon games or anime. What does everyone think?

Sounds like an interesting and ambitious project. Any ideas of how to get it started?

As far as multilingual songs are concerned, I believe there are numerous songs like this in Youtube already, this is just one example. But perhaps it could work as a source of inspiration.

As for our tune, we could use an orchestral remix of this, for instance:

All hail the Republic of TPM!

What do we have that identifies us (TPM) as us? That's somewhere to start.

There's a lot of symbolism in anthems, so I figure why not include it in the lyrics (if you intend to have lyrics that is.)

We could just cover the Gummi Bears song.

Dashing and daring, their forums are waning, faithful and friendly with nothing to share. <3 :P

I finally came up with a suggestion for an intro or something. This fits surprisingly well along with the Pokemon tune I posted eariler.

THE INTERNATIONAL ANTHEM OF TPM

O beautiful bringer of unity,
O community that makes the weak mighty!
Let the song of The PokeMasters
Reflect the dreams of peace and love!

Pride of nations that once fought each other
Gave birth to members who found the same mother
If there's a place in the Web to call home
For us it's this beloved board!

O, Mr.E! You are the greatest!
