very funny
Cheesy, funny, cool!
This was bound to happen only I didnt think it would be this way, sounds like a cheap ad on a local radiostation or a stationcall and I mean that in a good way!
Very good job! I will be using this is an upcoming presentation I have to do. Lets see if at the end the crowd goes wild "drupal drupal dru-pal!"
In my head
Oh just great. After only one listen, I can't get the song out of my head...
My son is going to love this...
must be
Must be translate and at one others languages :)
German, France, Spain, Chinese, Greek …
Does the song come in a t()
Does the song come in a t() function? :-P

there's something very wrong here...
:)

OMG
Things are getting a little out of hand here. Hahaha. ;)
Great initiative!
I love this and can't stop laughing! Another reason to choose Drupal! It's got it's own song!
2 Questions
1.) Why?
2.) How much time did you waste on this?
aaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrhhhhhhhhhhh
aaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrhhhhhhhhhhhhhh My Head.....!!!!!!!! Jeff aim not going forgive for this ever....
Drupal, drupal, drupal, - Drupal!!!
It's off the hizzy fo' shizzy. Sweet. :)
what? you did not like the song?? get a cvs account & contribute
It's open source, people contributing voluntarily. If you did not like to song you can contribute to it. I suggest you t get an csv account http://cvs.drupal.org/viewcvs/drupal/song
nice use of glockenspiel!
nice use of glockenspiel!
Fantastic!
I normally hate songs that wedge themselves into my head like a virus, but that's fantastic!
Is this the kinda music Orbit used to make? ;-)
Agree with BryanSD
I'm not a musician but, you know, the chorus is definitely catchy. I'm not Jewish but it reminds me of some Jewish music I've heard that was also catchy.
And, nice voice Jeff!
O_O
It's sticky
I like it :P
My brain!
My brain has just imploded. Ker-boom!
For kids
The song is also for kids, so that they in their 4 years already knew about Drupal and would use it then when they will build their first website ;-)
Like, you know, ...
This song is very minimalistic. Catchy, straightforward, kind of funny, and very minimalistic.
I'm looking forward to the day when promotion songs actually grow to something more than just a nicely worked out idea. Like, you know, some complex layering of musical motives, development of sounds and emotions throughout the song, a tiny share of jazz chords, and a shitload of subtleties that only insiders can laugh about.
Yeah, dream on jpetso. Nevertheless, nicely done!
Captcha
Btw, your math question captcha doesn't work in Konqueror.
Whereas I know other sites where the same Drupal captcha actually does work.
ooh yeah
Feels like Drupal, sounds like Drupal! It is Drupal.
Great break from CCK
After working with CCK all day, you put a smile on my face!!!
Sounds like that could be
Sounds like that could be the start of a blues song =)
I'm doing CCK 16 hours a day
comin home to...
Awesome work Jeff!
Can you post lyrics
Can you post lyrics ??
Thanks.
ROTFL
:-D
Pure gold
Loving it. Great song. I can't get it out of my head.
I think I will download Drupal.
Drupal Drupal Drupal Drupal Dru-pal.
Ring Tone!
I think there is a ring tone for my cell phone in there somewhere! Very cool. Thanks,
The Drupal Song
This is great. Beats all those OpenBSD release songs ;)
I like how you almost crack up repeating "Drupal" over and over..
What is that tune!?
What is that? That tune.... I know I've heard it before, but I can't place it!
tootsie roll song
You may just be the one.. (isn't that the way it always is when you produce something, "Make More!")
Whatever it is I think I see
Becomes a Drupal Node to me!
http://drupal.org/node/97970
(hmm.. never caught on there..)
flash player
great song!! may i use it on a podcast?
where did you get that nifty flash player? i will be needing something like that for a new podcast site...
"splatter-nebula"
Sure!
Use it however you like. If possible, I'm going to GPL the song. Either way, it's free to use however you like.
Use
I think I'm going to play it on my radio show. (I'd identify the station but I'm embarrassed by its website)
Greate song, can you
Greate song, can you "module" it so i can put on my site as well?
Oh boy, videos to this song
Oh boy, videos to this song are starting to roll out.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZ-s3DRZJKY
nice showcase
Wow, those are some fantastic examples of the diversity of Drupal theming in that video! The one at the beginning particularly caught my attention: http://www.mc-coperture.it/
Way to promote our favorite cms..
cheers
Nice! your ROCK! now for the Drupal commercial
I love it. kind of reminds me of the old "i'd like to buy the world a Coke" song. When you make the commercial, make sure that the first chorus is sung by just the singer in a room at a piano, then the second by everyone in the room (about 7 happy shinny people all of obvious diverse steyotypical races and geners, and of course one in a wheel chair), then the third by the entire neighboorhood as you pan out, the mailman singing, the milkman, the paper boy, etc..., then the fourth by people filled in a football statium, etc... Eventually you have 3 billion Chinese singing the chorus in their funny accents, and you pan back into space while the sound fades out, eventually ending on the famous picture of the earth from space from the Apollo mission. Still for 5 seconds...then cut to the space dude on the moon sticking the flag in the moon, but make it a Drupal flag instead of a USA flag. then out...
Cheers! Ricco
Oh Hehe really good song! I
Oh Hehe really good song! I LOVE IT! YEAH! and I like this CMS!
site recepie

Having fun with these
Having fun with these remixes :)
Who would have thought Drupal of all things would get me back into playing with music!
Yay, a remix!
Kcaz is the first to get a remix in, and whoooah! Bi-tonal Drupality... the theorists are going to go crazy =)
ahahah.
ahahah.
Just what the doctor ordered
A happy song for the hiper-happy Drupal developers out there, and a really catchy one.
Way to go Jeff!
Imagine a bunch of kids
Imagine a bunch of kids huddled around an Optigan. Intentionally overloaded and voice pitch changed to make it sound more playful.
I admit I cringed pretty badly when I first head it. I still do but this remix makes it sound more innocent. A kid singing this makes it less painful. :p
(kids are at it again -remix)
Slayer
Maybe if Slayer or He Is Legend could be persuaded to do a cover. There's definitely some metal in there.
wow thats nice music
wow thats nice music
sweet, cute and funny. i
sweet, cute and funny. i like that !!
Worryingly, this reminds me
Worryingly, this reminds me of Hawksley Workman!
cool
hahaha
very cool!
This is so Cool
All work and no play makes Lullabot a dull crew.........you guys are sooooo cool.Keep it coming guys!
...
That was a hard Math Question.
Man.. that song.. F.. yes, its in the head.. but im not enjoying it!! go away!! GOOOOO!!
could you please make
could you please make available the music sheet (not guitar tabs, proper music notation) for the melody?
My Remix - More Cowbell
Hey guys... Great song, thanks for the fun! I made a remix too... Enjoy: More Cowbell
Simon says...
<div style="persona: simon-cowell">That was really embarrassing! It sounds like something the Teletubbies should have been singing. No, wait... It's too bad even for them. You must turn in your musical instruments immediately and promise never to sing again!</div>
;)
Nice, very White Album.
Nice, very White Album.
That is rubbish...
but kinda sweet. I've never heard a love song to a CMS before (and hope I never will again!).
And "no", I'm not gonna remix it myself (even though I am a music producer/remixer) - you can't make a silk purse from a pig's ear.
But thanks anyway (and praise Moondog that I didn't hear this before I started to learn Drupal)!
