Continuing all the Frozen/HH madness... the Song Thread!!!

Seeing as how my HH/Frozen thing was getting rather overburdened by all the songs rose and I were writing, I decided to create a separate thread for the song rewrites...

I know I'm mad. But that's ok. the worst I will be able to say in my defense is...




wait for it...





a little longer...






"oops!!"

HOTQ versions:

"The Honor of the Queen" (frozen Heart)

born of training, skill and war, into us all combining,
the Honor of Manticore's queen is defended with pride, men.
Defend her Honor, bold and true, fight for the kingdom, she defends you,
fight for victory,
and the Honor of the Queen!

(hup, ho, raise sidewalls, let it go! hup, ho, raise sidewalls, let it go!)

horrible, powerful, dangerous, bold!
War has a darkness can't be controlled!
stronger than one, stronger than ten, stronger than one-hundred men! (FIRE!)

born of training, skill and war, into us all combining,
the Honor of Manticore's queen is defended with pride, men.
Defend her Honor, bold and true, fight for the kingdom, she defends you,
fight for victory,
and the Honor of the Queen!




"do you wanna go to Yeltsin?"

Admiral Courvoisier:


Honor...

do you wanna go to Yeltsin?
there's a situation there.
The Graysons are in disarray, no time to waste,
The Queen's honor's at stake!
You were one of my finest, but now you're not,
come on Honor, tell me why!

Do you wanna go to Yeltsin?
The Navy needs you here in Yeltsin.

(I can't, Admiral...)

OK, bye...

McKeon (spoken): Don't think about Basilisk Station. Conceal it...
Honor (Spoken): don't feel it...
Both: don't let it show.

Courvoisier...
We really need you here in Yeltsin,
the situation's getting worse,
The damned Masadans are now up in arms,
We need you now, Honor,
the system's cursed!(hang in there, Protector!)
we're getting rather desperate, all the Fleet and I,
so please help us find our way!

Honor: (I'm feeling worse! I keep seeing the dead of Basilisk and...!)

McKeon: Thinking about this only makes it worse! Calm down!

Honor: I'm not ready for this...

Courvoisier:
Please, I know you're in there,
the Navy's asking where you've been,
We need you Honor, things are looking poor,
We're on the verge of war, please let me in!
You are one of my finest, I believe in you,
so why can't you please help me??

Do you wanna go to Yeltsin?






"Let It Go" (Honor's POV)

The stars shine bright over Yeltsin tonight,
not an SD to be seen,
I'm conducting negotiations, for the Honor of my Queen
Their harsh words slash me like the missile storm inside,
couldn't remain here, Heaven knows I've tried.

Don't let them in, don't let them see,
be the Captain you've always had to be,
Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know...
Well now they know!!

Let it go! Let it go! can't hold it back anymore!
Let it go! Let it go! I'll succeed for Manticore!
I don't care, what the Graysons say!
Let my war rage on
The Peeps never bothered me anyway...

Oh it's funny how some distance, makes everything seem small,
and the insults of the Graysons can't get to me at all!
It's time to see what I can do,
to lo'wer my sidewalls and break through,
no pain, or loss, or death for me,
I'm free!

Let it go! Let it go! I am one with the stars tonight!
Let it go! let it go! for my Queen's honor I'll fight!
Here I stand, and Here I'll stay!
As the war goes on...

my Power flurries through the star-fields all around,
my cruiser's missiles fill the blackness that seems to abound,
and one thought vaporizes with a graser's blast,
I'm never going back, Basilisk's in the past!

Let it go! let it go! for the Queen I'll carry on!
Let it go! let it go! that Sphinxian girl is gone!
Here I'll stand, until victory!
Let the war rage on!
Politics never bothered me anyway.

For the first time in Forever
(Honor at the announcement of the GA)

The stars are alight, there's no more war,
I ne'er thought we'd have peace anymore,
who'd thought that Eloise would change her mind,
for years I've faced the Peeps alone,
and now for once, we stand as one,
finally my people won't have to die!

'Cause for the first time in forever, no more sorrow no more war!
For the first time in forever, there is peace on Manticore!
Don't know if I'm excited or nervous, But I'm somewhere there I'm sure!
But for the first time in forever, I can be secure.

spoken: I can't wait to see the Havenites...
Now that they're on our side I mean! (bleek!! Bleek!!)

Imagine me in dress uniform, talking to Shannon and Theisman, a picture of perfect Manticoran grace!
I see their President standing there, beautiful with that platinum hair...
while Stinker stuffs some celery in his face!

Then we laugh and talk all evening, which is totally bizarre, nothing like these endless years of war...!

For the first time in forever, my deep pain will finally cease!
For the first time in forever, we can finally talk of peace!
and I know it is totally crazy to think that this might last...
but for the first time in forever, the peace might have a chance!

Elizabeth and Eloise
don't let them in, don't let them see,
be the leader you always have to be...
conceal don't feel, put on a show!
make one wrong move and we'll be back at war!

Honor:
but the peace has come today,

Elizabeth and Eloise:
it's only for today!

Honor:
it's agony to wait

Elizabeth and Eloise:
it's agony to wait

Honor: Eighth Fleet starships, hold your fire, it's peace!

For the first time in forever, I'm getting what I'm waiting for

(don't let them in, don't let them see)
A chance to change the horrid past
(be the leader you always have to be...)
A chance to end the war!
(conceal)
the truce it might end tomorrow, so it has to be today!
(conceal don't feel don't let them know...)
cause for the first time in forever...
for the first time in forever...
Nothing's in our way!

First time in forever reprise (Sonja+ Shannon)

Sonja:

Please don't shut me out again,
Please don't slam the door
I need your help if we're to end this war!

'cause for the first time in forever,
I finally understand
For the first time in forever,
We can fix this hand in hand

We can defeat the MAlign together
You don't have be in fear
'cause for the first time in forever,
I will be right here

Shannon
[Sonja...]

Shannon
Please go back home, and fight the war
you're needed there, I'm giving you Bolthole...

Sonja: [Yeah, but —]

Shannon:
I know
You mean well, but leave me be
Yes, I'm alone, but I'm alone and free
Just stay away and we'll have victory

Sonja (Shannon):
Actually we're not (What do you mean you're not?)
I get the feeling you don't know (What do I not know?)
The MA's hit Haven and Manticore!

Shannon: What?!

Sonja: They've kind of hit our shipyards and R&D people. there's devastation... everywhere!

Shannon: Everywhere?

Sonja: Well, it's okay, you can just pull your infamous "oops" again and end the war... or give us some brilliant idea... or...

Shannon: No, I can't, the 'oops' was a one time incident!!... (did you HAVE to bring that up??)

Sonja:
You can do this, Shannon! I believe in you!

Sonja (Shannon):
'Cuz for the first time in forever, (I'm such a fool, I can't be free)
You don't have to be afraid (No escape from the storm inside of me)
We can end the war together (I can't control the curse)
We'll reverse the MA's pain(Sonja, please! You'll only make it worse!)

Don't panic (There's so much fear)
We'll somehow bring peace again(You're not safe here)
We can face this thing together (No!)
We can change the war forever
And everything we'll be — (I can't!)

(Shannon's new weapon design fires, striking Sonja...)

Treecats are better than people
Stinker, isn't that true?
<Yeah, two-legs will beat you, and curse you, and cheat you, every one of them's bad, but not you>

(thanks, Nimitz) (Bleek!!)


But people aren't empaths like Treecats
Stinker,do you agree?
<that's once again true, for all except you,
now feed your Treecat celery!>

Celery...

there's no one quite like you and me...

(Nimitz purrs softly, and Honor falls asleep)

Let's face it. This is the most accurate song either one of us has ever written.

do you have any ideas for songs yet??

I'm working on an Augustus and Estelle version of "Fixer-Upper", but that one's taking awhile. I'm also trying to figure out an appropriate pair of characters for "Love Is An Open Door" - perhaps StateSec luring, say, Honeker or LePic into its clutches?

Okay... a question:

Is this thread strictly for Frozen rewrites, or can requests be made for other musicals/films/plays/whatever?

'Cuz I have one that may be a bit of a challenge, and I'm no good at this sort of thing myself.
