[hypenote1406]

Why didn't Linkara use this version back when he used the old one that broke my eardrums? This one's audio level doesn't make my speakers want to break.

[Swenglish]

@hypenote1406 Because he liked the grittiness of the demo version, which was recorded in a hurry, using a laptop's built in microphone. I am sorry about that. The demo version was never intended to be used.

[hypenote1406]

@Swenglish Linkara always was a strange man.

Then again, if he wasn't, I don't think he would be as funny.

[chatchat102]

I've heard a lot of people ask this question, and I kinda want to know, but what are the guitar chords? I'd love to cover this, and I'm sure a load of others would like to as well. :)

[Swenglish]

@chatchat102 I'm aware many have asked this question. Which is why I've lost count of how many times I've replied to it. But here goes again: em... bm... repeat until insane.

[Swenglish]

@F1315NJ That depends on a number of factors.

I did the AT4W theme song on the cheap because I was already a fan of the show (which made the song practically write itself in my head), and also knew it would get me some publicity. Being unfamiliar with your work, for me to make you a theme song like this (with descriptive lyrics and a distinct sound reflecting your style) would take both research and presumably hard creative work. Would you be willing to pay me for it?

[Shanethefilmmaker]

I can see why its called the gunslinger theme I haven't read it but I think of dark tower when I hear this.

[Shr00b]

Do you also have the instrumental version of this one i love the best? xDDD

[Swenglish]

@Shr00b I think I have it somewhere, yeah.

[Shr00b]

@Swenglish

I really like this one.. So.. Yup.. Thanks.

[mets2128]

I AM A MAN! PUNCH

[Swenglish]

@mets2128 Yes you are. Ouch.

[partygirl209]

interesting song!!

[ZRtheHedgehog77]

That song seem kinda fast there... need to shortin the time?

[Swenglish]

@ZRtheHedgehog77 This is an unused recording of the song. I made this recording right after the song was chosen, but Linkara opted to use the demo recording until I made yet another recording, which is the one being used currently.

[Nix91]

He is a man! *punch*

[Keffhenke]

Grym låt, Swenglish.

Är Linkara också svensk? För han låter lite för Yankee-doodle-dandy för att kunna vara svensk.. :-)

[Swenglish]

Linkara är amerikan.

[Djangon]

its acctually really catchy :P I dont like Linkara as much as other TGWTG people, but this song is by far the best!

Dude, your awesome!

[varoonk5]

This is an AWESOME SONG!! The best in TGWTG

[Laurie2733]

Linkara rules!!

[CptReed]

linkra got me into comics i thank him for that

[Sandman827]

Linkara is God!

[AjnosFTW]

NO MATTER WHAT VERSION, THIS SONG KICKS SO MUCH ASS IT'S IMPOSSIBLE THERE ISN'T ANY ASS THAT HASN'T BEEN KICKED BY IT.

*turns off caps lock*

Love it! One of the best theme songs ever!!

[Swenglish]

Tack så mycket. Trevligt att det gillas.

[AjnosFTW]

@Swenglish Du är awesome ^^

[Swenglish]

Jag gör så gott jag kan.

[Moredread25]

I perfer this version of the song to the longer slower one.

[PKrockin]

I hated this song at first, but it definitely does grow on you. Nice work.

[anton1990]

Detta är riktigt badass. Linkara äger, och det gör sannerligen låten med!

[Swenglish]

Trevligt att det gillas.

[Dippen1337]

Some good stuff right there !

[BassForever]

THIS COMIC SUCKS!

Love Linkara's show and love this theme song, excellent work Vincent

[coruscant100]

Just recently got into Linkara, he's really funny and good at tearing comics apart.

[sidraptor]

WOW!!! this song made me look forward to linkara even more!!!! Nice Work Man

[kaijufanatic]

So you're the one who made this awesome theme song.

[Swenglish]

Yep, that would be me. Do feel free to check out my other works.

[bobmanny11]

HEY ur fuckin genius......

[norvegianu]

thx

[norvegianu]

swenglish,can you please make a video on how to play the song,or add the tabs to this one please?

[Swenglish]

Oh, that's a lot of work I never wrote down the bass tabs, and don't really know how to (I've never written tabs), but the chords are simple. It's just Em Bm Em Bm et.c.

[customattack]

Where's the full version (the one that is 2 minutes long)?

[OdinoftheVault]

Linkara's official channel, reuisu.

[norvegianu]

the theme song is really cool and linkaras show kicks major ass.his a really good adition to the tgwtg site

[cappuccinoflats]

Best theme song ever. It's always stuck in my head!

[Ze0do0Gas]

"He has a magic gun...Where'd he purchase that?"

Ebay?! Like in the Silent Hill comic?

[DeathGodRiku]

@Ze0do0Gas nope. in reality, a flea market

[Ze0do0Gas]

@DeathGodRiku LOL

[LightVSDarkness64]

take that confused matthew!

[Omegatron666]

Now this is a smexy theme song if I may say so myself.

Fast jag tycker nog om den längre versionen bättre.

[hioeo123]

lol this comic sucks linkare 10/5 i love linkaras reviews almost as funny as NC

[DtKingdom]

the extended version is even better

[Swenglish]

I'm glad you like the new one. I might make a lyrics video for that one also eventually. The MP3 is on my soundclick already though.

[g8282]

Welcome to Atop the fourth wall...where bad comics burn!......

[zombi3genocider]

this is such a bad ass theme song

[XLordSundayX]

My favourite bit is definetley the

THIS. COMIC. SUCKS.

LINKARA!

[TackyRackyComixNEO]

Y'know, for some reason, the beginning reminds me a lot of They Might Be Giants's song "They'll Need a Crane". Regardless, it's still sealed-awesome-in-a-can-just-a­dd-water.

[Appule69]

Best theme EVAH!!!

[Sorantheman]

Great job.

[xDPOTTIxD]

when i first heared this song i understood "this comic sucks linkara" and i was like "WTF?!" xD

nice song, love it

[Headbanger142]

Linkara, he's the man! PUNCH! Wears a purdy hat!

[LadyNekoshema]

LINKARA! *punch*

yes! awesome, go linkara

[Tareltonlives]

Pretty epic

[Filby]

That rocks so hard.

[Wartooth91]

i loves it, every tiem i watch a new video i can't wait for it to start playing.

[mgraymead]

I'll admit when I first heard this I thought "Wow, there must not have been many good entries then", But this song has grown on me alot since then, Making a good song is one thing but making a song that can change a persons tastes the more they listen to it, takes alot of skill. Well Done.

[fatcat529]

this song actually got me into linkara lol

[Sparkonetwo]

You can tell when you hear the other entries (used as outro themes in Linkara's videos) that this was clearly the best one and the obvious choice. The others are good, but this one just fits.

[eDotDanny311]

Mp3, please! Also, I didn't understand a lot of the words until I saw this. Linkara FTW!

[Swenglish]

The MP3 is availible for free download on both my Soundclick and last fm. Links in the video description.

[TheRealCodeBlack]

Which review is the Brodzky line referring to?

[Seraphicat]

The Sultry Teenage Super Foxes comic review

[CosmoShidan]

Awesome theme song! It never old!

[DeFyAnTFoX]

HAHAHA this deserved to win lol

[Torchwodguru]

i hate this its too catchy damn you i randomly sing this everywere

[ACDrawings]

I can only magine Linkara having a hard time chosing this among the other entrants.

This is one of those songs that don't sound to great at first but the more you hear it, the more you like it.

it's catchy, really sticks to you, good job sir.

[timemonkey]

Hey, this song is really catchy. I randomly started singing it at work the otherday.

[Metroid51]

i wish this song was longer its so good!

[MartinTrowley]

i didnt really like this at first but it has really grown on me and now i love it!!!! and with hearing the other songs on Linkaras outro's i can understand why you won by a country mile!!!!

[Swenglish]

Thanks, I'm glad it's grown on you:)

[Swenglish]

I appreciate your honesty, PiercedHeavens, but I'd appreciate even more if you could tell me what exactly it is you don't like about it.

[rebelinfiltrator]

i like this version better

[lightthecure]

however, in the grany version i thought it said "anyone who's ever read a bad comic loves it"

[lightthecure]

yeah, i agree with linkara. i like the granier version. but this version still kicks ass

[DaRantKid]

why is this version so much better/faster than the one he uses in his videos?

[Swenglish]

Because he decided to use the demo version (which I recorded quickly on my built in laptop mic the day the contest was announced) instead of this proper recording (which I did just before the end of the contest).

[DaRantKid]

why don't you just send him this version and ask them to switch. It's a great theme either way but this is just a more enjoyable version.

[Swenglish]

Quote from Linkara himself: "And if people are wondering why I used the version I do - it's because the more I listened to it, the more I liked the grainier version for sounding like a gunslinger ballad. While the cleaned-up version is good, I just liked the grainier one a teensy bit better... but if demand is high enough, I'll switch it out."

[DarkNevermore]

THIS KICKS ASS

[BurnerMatch]

Soft låt, bra jobbat!

Sweet tune, great job!

[BlackWizzard]

Cant get it out of my head! awesome job man! perfect song for linkara!
