Wednesday Wordplay — Let’s Filk Baby!
Once upon a time, I was a bard in the SCA known as Zeva the Weaver. I specialized in filks, and my most popular songs were always the funny ones. And here’s the kicker — I still have many of those old songs.
So, every Wednesday, I’m willing to share one song. However, first you must vote on which song you want to see. Previously unposted songs, some comic, some not, will be listed and up for the vote. You may vote by leaving a comment stating the song of your choice.
I must receive a minimum of 5 votes (it doesn’t matter if they’re all for the same song) or no filk will be posted.
You have until Wednesday at midnight (PST) to leave your votes. The filk will be posted on Thursday morning, immediately followed by my standard Thursday post, “R is for Reasearch.” See you all at the polls.

Dear God, not Beowulf. I vote *against* that one. I can’t see the word “Heorot” to this day without getting that song stuck in my head.
My vote will be for…”Pennsic War”
Also, it is obvious to me that Mewler just wants a vote. Well, that and he’d very helpful.

All of those sound like fun, but my vote has to go with “Drunken Fighter”.
*Ahem* I wouldn’t know anything about that subject thought.

Not Beowulf, huh. You still having nightmares about Mary had a Little Lamb?

For some strange reason ‘Kiss the queen’ appeals to me… must be the British subject in me

The Short Prince of Cynagua

Into the Fray is my vote.
Beowulf will have to wait until Callio’s out of town or something.
Would hate to be the partial cause of nightmares.

Seriously Catslyn and Eideann, I saw a book called “Heorot” the other day and the song was stuck in my head for hours.
Le Sigh.
