Come on Linus, whip up some Linux tunes goodness. :)
It would be nice if Linux would get a release song... Any body wants to do it?
Or maybe take a look at this The Twelve Days of Code-Freeze
Or this:

Isn't this far too geekish for any living creature? When will we see a movie about my microwave oven?
The FTP site isn't responding; could someone post the song to gnutella; thanks
The vocalist outperformed the lyricist on this one by a few orders of magnitude, methinks. The last 'gooooooone' bit was amazing considering that she belted that out without even so much as a chuckle at the lyrics she had to sing.
i'm switching back to windows and forgetting about unix. you guys are way to creepy.
I think I speak for a lot of people when I say I thought this was gonna suck, but after downloading it and hearing it, I'm pretty impressed.
How very appropriate to release the lyrics alongside the song.
Sort of like a metaphor for the whole opensource thing.
I guess to much english class makes one read to much into things though.
The Vorbis version is compressed with old version.. What is it with people, why can't they get it to their heads to use the 1.0 stable release?!
There may be no Linux song, but there's definitely a Free Software Song, lovingly performed by RMS.

Eventually, I found a good reason why I should switch from Linux to FreeBSD.

I'm impressed too, especially since I really hated the song for 3.1, it had a crappy melody and even crappier lyrics and the crappiest musicians since Gwyneth Paltrow decided to be a lousy singer in addition to being a lousy actress.
Now this one sounds really good, the vocalist is reminiscent of Shirley Bassey. I really wish they had chosen this one as the new Bond theme instead of Madonna, who decided to be a crappy actress in addition to being a crappy singer. Thank you.

Does BSD = People with way too much free time? :)
/. and running mdk cooker, go figure....
I mean, I admire the O/S but the song lol, maybe a lil too much, or maybe I just don't have a good apprecition for this modern genre of "Geek" or maybe it's "Romance" I dunno
I guess I shouldn't be talking about too much free time, here I am posting on
Sigs pose an operational security risk and help the baddies aggregate data. I guess commenting does too, oops.
Which old BSD?
The wicked BSD!
Ding Dong the BSD is deaaaad!
Wake up, sleeping process.
Rub your eyes,
Get out of bed.
Wake up the wicked BSD is deaaaad!
It's gone where the daemons go,
Below, below, below
Yo ho,
Let's open up and sing!
And ring the (system) bells out!
Don't take me seriously, I quite like BSD. Remember, "Wicked" can mean two different things :)

I downloaded the song before the "OpenBSD is ready for download" post was on /.
So why is the song, suddenly ready for download?
It's the James Bond'ish, operatic number with the chick with the sexy voice right? Sharp flippers and all that?
War crimes, torture, lies, illegal spying... Would someone give Bush a blowjob, already, so he can be impeached?
Now we just need some hit-fodder from Tux and his Penguins!
Developing a BSD-based OS with security in mind = good!
Sell cds to fund the project = good.
Release theme song = good?
Making your users associate your OS with cheesy salsa music = ????

Oh, my Tux, my darling i've hungered for your drivers A long, unix epoch Time goes by At 1000Hz interrupts And time can do so much Are you still POSIX? I need your stable VM I need your kexec God speed your async I/O to me! (to the tune of unchained melody)
Oh, my Tux, my darling
i've hungered for your drivers
A long, unix epoch
Time goes by
At 1000Hz interrupts
And time can do so much
Are you still POSIX?
I need your stable VM
I need your kexec
God speed your async I/O
to me!
There are some great BSD songs here already, like this one. Will somebody with a real sense of humor please mod these great songs back up? There not trolling, there really funny.
from slashdot - or perhaps i saw it somewhere else - but being that everyone is asking where the linux song is, i thought you all might find this... funny

I read the lyrics for the song and my reaction was "huh?", perhaps the song makes exclusive reference to OpenBSD so much that you would have to be familiar with it to get it?
Introducing! TUX as the sourcee code

Does this song add any features to the previous version. I'm considering upgrading...
Where's the Music EULA? How am I supposed to know how many times and on how many machines I'm allowed to play this stuff?
Remove the caps and hold to a mirror.
Doo, doo, doo, Lookin' out my back door.
God rest ye CS students
let nothing you dismay
the vax is down and won't be up
until the first of may
The staff commited suicide
we'll bury them today
Oh tidings of comfort and joy
comfort and joy, comfort and joy.
If you find the rest of the song at my fortune site please email the whole thing to me.
You can't judge a book by the way it wears its hair.
Would you rather be with a cool penguin(Tux for Linux), a fat guy in a butterfly suit(Fat Guy Who Thinks He's A Butterfly for Micro$oft)? Obviously the cool penguin.
Would rather be with the Fat Blue People(Blue Man Group for Intel) or Ellen Fiest(Hot Girl for Apple)?
In retrospect, that's why I run Linux on a Mac.
Here is my switch commercial

Love 'em especially the Gold Flipper one.
~BSD Rocks!
If I ever hear the OpenBSD guys say "Linux wackos" again I now finally know what to answer.
A f*cking SONG *BWAAAH*
With golden skin and flippers as sharp as a knife
He's the machine designed to dismember your life
And the fish protecting us all from the cat
And the cat infecting the world for a laugh
Cyborg on a mission to do some perfishin
The doctor wants foogoo tonight
You need some machismo to catch the spiky one
He's got guts and gizmos to make the system run
(?) flips here for fun
And without a gun
He'll dice you with his golden fin
She's all over puff cause he's such a sexy catch
Is she spying on him? Or just a seafood match?
Oh double seven, send me to heaven
Cause for mister pun the women are fun
She knows what to do
She'll turn gold to goo
Gold flipper is gone
Gold flipper is gone

did anyone else think the song sounded a LOT like bond theme music?

Onalea Gilbertson (singer on this track) is a great vocalist. Chances are if you've heard of her before, it'd be from her anime voice acting - Moonbay in Zoids (Chaotic Century), plus various characters in G Gundam.
Finally, OSS is getting songs, too.
Micro$oft has had music for years.
Please correct me if I got my facts wrong.
so how exactly did they make the music? an external instrument midi thing, or some incredible piece of software?
So when's the album come out? Seriously, seems like a decent way to support the project... if only it wasn't so... so... damn cheesy. If they put out quality music without the god-awful lyrics, I'd pay for a CD.
