Last year, I released an EP featuring all video game-based songs called "fairly EPic", which is still available here. The first track was a medley of every song I EVER WROTE!!...about video games. Simply known as "The Epic Video Game Medley".
Basically, I had ideas for video game parodies, but I didn't feel they needed a full song...just the chorus and the occasional verse was enough to tell the joke. Well, I came up with more song ideas...and one I co-wrote with the great Luke Ski.
Because, honestly...they can't all be DiG DuG.
Copy the code below and paste it on your web site, blog, or anywhere you can input HTML to share this song.

I had just gotten "Mr. Do run run run run, Mr. Do run run" out of my head, it's nice to get a new Mr. Do tune stuck in my head for April. Great stuff.

You had me hooked from the Rock You Like A Hurricane opener, and then you hit me Band On The Run. You certainly upped your game with this song. Epic Sequel Song achievement unlocked!!

Great job!! I'm not even a "gamer", and I got a lot of chuckles out of it. And you parodied a lot of songs that an old geezer like me is familiar with!

Never thought you'd do another full video game medley, then there was the new segments performed at Marscon. Nice to hear them in context, but after 8 minutes of hearing you sing, I have one thing to say. SHUT UP, IAN!

This is totally rocking, Mr. Ian. My favorite segment is the Fountains one, though I have no idea what it's about. This is a lot better than the first one production-wise, may there be a third eventually.

The Mr. Do verse was awesome. :) And it's nice to see the Mario Kart song get a proper release rather than just as part of a hidden bonus track. Love that bit.

You should do a CD with full versions of all the songs from both medleys Ian. I would so buy it

Win! That Pikachu thing make me snarf my breakfast, though. You owe me some coffee, Ian!

Okay, you want comments, you got 'em. WTH is this? Can't you follow through on a single idea? Or, too many ideas to follow through on? You lazy... Seriously, this song is FTGDMFW! Nice job Ian.

I was going to ask why WoW wasn't included, then I remembered you already did a full song about WoW ;) Love this medley, Ian!

Loved it saw you at Marscon 2011 I can not tell what awsome time I had.

Thanks for including my MarioKart part into the song proper! :D This is an awesome epic win piece of work!

This is a whole lot of fun. I liked seeing this at MarsCon! Also, I think "Pikachu" and "Gary's Mod" could be expanded into full songs. :)

Awesome stuff!!

Hahaha! Epic doesn't quite describe the epicocity of this song... this ranks up there in "Legendary". Well done buddy!

Epic, indeed. I would love to hear full-on parodies of any and all of the songs in this medley.
