A song dedicated to the Twitch Plays Pokémon livestream (http://www.twitch.tv/twitchplayspokemon) that concluded earlier today (and will return tomorrow). Alas, I was making toast when we defeated Blue for the final time, but with the amount of fan-art, lore and goodness knows what else was birthed from it, here's a little ditty to remember the last 18 days by.

Mixed in REAPER v4.22/x64
Drums sequenced using Independence Free (Acoustic Kit 3).
Guitar used: Tanglewood Telecaster (Drop C#/Db tuning*)
Amp used: Line 6 Spider IV 15

Lyrics:

Spoiler For Spoiler:

A million voices guide me on my way
On my quest to be the best of all time
You may cry and say that I'm a slave
In the mix with the six by my side

Slow and steady wins the race?
Spiral to our resting place
You fight for democracy
I will maintain anarchy

My companions will take me close but yet so far
Like no tomorrow; I will burrow premature
The pseudorandom will take me where you want
Your sacrifices will make sense; of that I'm sure

Slow and steady wins the race?
Spiral to our resting place
You fight for democracy
I will maintain anarchy

Slow and steady wins the race?
Spiral to our resting place
You fight for democracy
I will maintain anarchy

^{*fun fact: prior to recording this, my the 6th string to my guitar snapped, meaning the guitar parts were recorded with 5 strings. I replaced all the strings when it came to doing the bass, though.
I had to record the vocals through my camera's microphone. :(}
