Song parodys

Post by DougDanger » Sat Feb 04, 2012 3:07 am

Greetings!
I just have a quick question about the teams stance on song parodys in journals/ic forum posts?
And if yes you alow them, what are your refrence requirements to the original song?

I ask, just to make sure No rules are broken and No one gets sued. I only took a quick look at the previous posts in Ask the Team, I appologize if I missed your ruling for this topic already..

I admit I have a slightly twisted sence of Parody, ( I don't do it for comedic aspects.)

here is an example of one of my latest, (though not yet used any where)
Mutated version of Cold Plays song Paradise to fit Pearl Peach Perdue's thoughts

Sacrifice

When I was just a girl
I wanted to destroy the world
But it slipped away from my reach So
I ran away in my sleep
And drempt about
Sacri-sacri-sacrifice
Sacri-sacri-sacrifice
Sacri-sacri-sacrifice
every time I close my eyes

When I was just a girl
I wanted to destroy the world
But it slipped away from my reach
The bolts I shot caused some grief
It went on, it gets even more ugly
Crushed and killed prety butterflies
Drown other animals in waterfalls

On the stormy thundering nights, close my eyes
On the stormy thundering nights, I watch them die
Because they are a
Sacri-sacri-sacrifice
Sacri-sacri-sacrifice
Sacri-sacri-sacrifice
ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-oh-oh-oh
I am going to
Sacri-sacri-sacrifice
Sacri-sacri-sacrifice
Sacri-sacri-sacrifice
ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-oh-oh-oh

la-la-la-la-la-la
la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

They lay bound undernieth stormy skies
I'd say "oh ohohohoh you know its time to die"
And become my
Sacri-sacri-sacrifice
Sacri-sacri-sacrifice
Become my
Sacri-sacri-sacrifice
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-oh-oh-oh
You will be my
Sacri-sacri-sacrifice
Sacri-sacri-sacrifice
Now I am satisfied with just a
Sacri-sacri-sacrifice
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-oh-oh-oh
