boards.ie: The Jingle

A lot of online business have jingles now, such as 123.ie, webuyanycar.com and GoCompare.

If boards.ie should have a jingle, what words should it have and what should it sound like? Heck, anyone who is musically gifted, upload a possible jingle to somewhere and post it here!

If youve got a questiobn ,
No matter how silly ,
Come to after hours,
And get blasted by a willy?

If boards.ie had a jingle comparable to go compare and other such shíte, I would immediately abandon the site.

And if you are musically gifted, you are not exactly going to settle for "writing" jingles.

It should be in the same vein as the NRC Taxi ad on the Radio

"if yer headin' to McGraths or up to yer Ma's"
"if yer goin' shoppin' or a disco boppin' 6 Double 7 Double 2 Double 2"

Lyrical genius.

Mr. Rager

After Hours—it's the forum whose name you'd love to touch...
But, you musn't touch!
Its name sounds good in your ear,
But when you say it, you mustn't fear Because its name can be said by anyone!

Anyone

It should be done to the tune of "Cant touch this" by MC Hammer.

Do you look for answers for everything in life,
Like how to fix a car or make love to your wife,
Do you try your best to get yourself a bargain?
Or what you think suits best with your brand new cardigan?
So many forums, to choose what you require,
On your mobile, PC or Amazon's new fire,
So if you need an answer while you're out walking,
Choose boards.ie, now ye're talking

You never claimed copyright

First thing I did on my songwriting blog is claim all content to be the copyright of ME! :pac:

cloptrop

Yeah Im not sure how legal that is .I think you have to get a publisher or a solicitor or something .

Now I'm no rich lawyer, but I think it's similar to this;

You have to shout, "I Declare COPYRIGHT!" really loudly. Similar to this -

Once it was your creation or idea, as far as I'm concerned it is your property.

If not, someone could take one of my songs, record it as their own, and I would be able to do nothing. That doesn't sound right does it?


(btw, I don't mean to sound patronising )

I knew that bit of business law in college would come in handy

Boards.ie it'll make you laugh
Boards.ie it'll make you cry
Boards.ie it's full of c*nts.
Boards.ie it'll make you despair for the future of our country given the amount of sh*te you'll read on it from ignorant self-important d*ckheads who say things like "Makes me ashamed to be Irish." or "I'm not even racist but....."
Boards.ie you'll really hate yourself after wasting a whole night arguing against people whose opinion doesn't matter to you at all but for some reason you just can't let it go can you? For f*ck's sake you really should find something more productive to do with your time you idiot.

[Bongo solo]

(This jingle applied to After Hours only)

Art comes from the heart man. What can I say? I write about my feelings bro.

But at least we're agreed on the bongo solo.

No, because 'cant touch this' is easily substituted with the banned '...........piss' line.

You used to be cool cloptrop man, it used to be about the music!

Everyone gets hit with the harsh realism of the music biz . That why sir paul married the girl with one leg.
