View Full Version : The APC Song (JCB Song spoof) - New BF2 Video

After hearing Nizlopi's #1 UK hit JCB Song (http://www.jcbsong.co.uk), I immediately thought it'd make a great basis for some alternate, BF2 inspired lyrics. A month and half later (well, I had to write the lyrics, get a karaoke version, and learn how to use BattleRecorder) here you have it....

* Streaming media from Putfile.com (http://media.putfile.com/The-APC-Song) (Switch view size to Original or Wide otherwise the aspect ratio will be off)
Please disregard the awful singing (if you can), I really didn't have anyone else to ask!
:laugh:
Disclaimer: This song is very tongue-in-cheek and not meant to be taken seriously. I'm not particularly l33t, my clan is very friendly and open, and I've been known to wh*re around in an APC as much as anyone else! You may have seen this post at EA's BF2 forums earlier. Sorry for the repost.

Ha ha! Great work, CmdSgtRas ... I'd only recently heard the JCB Song but your video nonetheless made me laugh all the way through. The singing was good and I loved the lyrics (especially the visual image of a nine-year-old whoring the APC).
Also, I really appreciated the sense of pure enjoyment conveyed (much like in the actual JCB song). Any time I'm in armour at Karkand, I feel like my fun's coming at the expense of other people's enjoyment of the game and that just makes it all the more enjoyable for me! Something captured very nicely by the song ...
Including the visual quality of the clip, the editing, and the originality of the idea, it was great work all-round. Well done!

Thanks guys, I really appreciate the feedback. If you're interested, there's a whole other verse which I decided to cut out of the video:
And we pull over so the main gun cools
And pull off again, speedin’ by the newly spawned fools
And we’re like l33ters up here in our big armored f*cker
Taking out choppers and killing all the n00bie suckers.
I wanna come back with a Special Forces kit!
And spawn rape all the pubbers and the admins that are sh!t
And I'll tell my squadmates that I top the leaderboard
Only cause my APC wins me every award!
You can pick up the MP3 version here:
* Streaming from Putfile.com (http://media.putfile.com/APC-Song-MP3)
* Download from Filefront.com (http://files.filefront.com/The_APC_Song_MP3/;4758468;;/fileinfo.html)
John-Paul, I'm glad the pure enjoyment of APC whoring came across for you. Originally, the coda was going to be "I'm Mike, I'm l33t and I'm soon thirty..." in honor of my clanmate CmdSgtMike (who played the MEC n00bs in the flick) as he loves whoring around on Karkand in an APC. I thought I'd make it more general though, and the image of a 9-year old armor whore was born!

Thanks guys, I really appreciate the feedback and support.
In addition to the guys who've downloaded it from Filefront.com, it's now been seen by over 15,000 people at Putfile.com and is currently the highest rated video of the week!

help why i'm seeing colorful texture while streaming using putfile ?

Weird, I don't know why that'd be happening. Try downloading the file from the Filefront link (http://files.filefront.com/The_APC_Song/;4753433;;/fileinfo.html) instead (either way your computer is receiving 18Mb so it doesn't really matter).
This may not fix your problem though. If you are running Windows Media Player 9, upgrade to WMP 10 (free from Microsoft.com (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/mp10/default.aspx)). That may help, I had a similar issue with WMV files a while back and upgrading WMP helped.
Nicely done (n00b)CmdSgtRas , the credits said so ;)
I'll put it on my playlist, while playing BF2. Making me relax some, I think. Well done :D

Hahaha Darkstar10! If people are humming or singing The APC Song, then my work is done...
Seriously, I've had people in servers sing or hum the song over the VOIP or type "wh*ring around in my APC" in the chat. It's a lot of fun!
Over 30,000 people have seen the streaming video version now which is way more than I ever expected.
Thanks for the support, guys!

Hey thanks! So far, it's only been picked up by a couple of blogs and other BF2 sites/forums.
I actually emailed the streaming link to a guy I know at Dice early on and he wrote me back (translated from Swedish):
Awesome movie!! :) It was very much appreciated by the team...(I sent the link to everyone in the BF2 team.)
That's kinda cool, huh?
