Need help for the new I Power song!
Well this time for the sake of quality assurance I decided to use a song that's already been written as the theme instead of making one from scratch, and it just so happens that I've found a great song to use as a theme: "Something in the Air" by Tom Petty.
All I need now are I Power-related lyrics.
Let's brainstorm here! Click below to hear the song we're using, and if you come up with even a line, go ahead and post it. If you come up with a verse, even better. I'd rather this be a collaborative effort, so even if one of you manage to write a complete set of lyrics for the whole song, I'll probably only use part of that. But yeah, let's have fun with this, and don't worry about the singing/performing/recording/mixing. Don't you worry your pretty head one moment about that, muahaha. Consider the rest taken care of.
Good luck!
Note: For clarity, please include the lyric in the original song you wish to replace with your own. That way there won't be any misunderstandings of content.

I'm not so good with lyrics i'll try think of something,
Alan (and other people) please check out this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KCYHCmjGqs8&feature=PlayList&...
It might be a good theme, it's from the popular RPG game Shin Megami Tensai: Persona 3 so if it has any copyright or anything we can try get the same feeling/spirit like in that theme ?
EDIT: I have a lyric: "Freedom is only a Revolution away" how's that ?

I love the revolution angle. I'm thinking a good opening line to be, "Ring up the revolution.."
Since "I am the revolution" is the I Power motto, right? Maybe that could be the first line actually.

Yeah man that's cool, you need to think about what the other singers sang,
eg: love is all that I need and I find it there in your arms, baby it's not hard to believe we're in heaven.
(Bryan Adams: Heaven http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABsXpOkx7-o&feature=PlayList&... )
or something, think hard dude.

Cool stuff, but I'm afraid I'm going to make an executive decision and rule that it doesn't pertain enough to the site. I think I know where you're going with it, but the context doesn't really work. I appreciate your idea though and hope you submit some more.

you know what an awesome song is... that relates to I-Power :) .... Free Fallin' by John Mayer (was originally a Tom Petty song, but John Mayer's version is better)..... check it out, I think it would fit, or maybe even a different song to this :)
Random lyrics that may be used
"Stand, before you fade,
Shout, before you fade,
ooh Live! before you fade!
Join the I-Power crusade" (yes I stole the crusade thing from Radu.... shoot me ((please don't)) :] )
EDIT: I don't really care where/if you use those lyrics or if you change them, make them into whatever context you want if you want to use them. :)
Peace and Love <3
