Alternate Robotech intro

Postby Panaka » Thu Feb 22, 2007 8:54 am

This is apperently the french version.
I don't know if I should laugh or cry.

I've always had a soft spot for the Robotech Intro, but this sounds so messed up.

WTF, mate! I might not be a big fan of the french language, but that music was way too much screwed up allright.
I feel sorry for the people of french who have to listen to this intro in their shows :/

¿There was any doubt that SC would be the Rape of Robotech?
I know I never had that question…

ROFL

They should have edited the credit which read "Robotech Theme Composed By Ulpio Minucci" to include a disclaimer like, "But that's not this crappy song you're hearing right now."

I shudder to think what they did with the voices of the characters.

The background singers going "Ro-Bo-Tech!" are just priceless. Or is it worthless? Eh, same coin, two sides.

Ahhh! Stop ruining my childhood! ^_^

Seriously though, that music was just terrible. I honestly couldn't sit through the whole video because of it.

Yeah f**ked up as a football bat is an appropriate way to say it (The Robotech french theme) yet it is like a horrible automobile accident, you don't want to see it but you cannot help but watch

or at least that is what i thought until I translated the lyrics. Call me nuts but they are kind of cool (in a goofy way) and actually kinda fit the show (no i DO NOT know French I used a translator program and as you can tell it is not 100 percent) And at the time it was not any dumber than some of the American Cartoon Openings i have seen when growing up


of course this would also mean that the American ROBOTECH opening we all know and love was ahead of it's time

Robotech...
To defend liberty,
to preserve humanity,
They go in battle valiant and fièrs -
Heroes of the universe.

Forward, fighter of the light;
Our life you have it between your hands.
Dèfendez the future of our Earth
For that peace
and the amitiè
prevail á never.

Robotech delivered you all the secrets,
The mystëres of the science of tomorrow.
Do you beat, we will be all to your cötés -
In the stars,
Against the evil,
For an ideal...

Robotech...

Against all the Come envahiseurs
of another galaxy,
They go in battle fièrs and without fears
To The peril of their lives.

Forward, fighter of the light;
Our life you have it between your hands.
Dèfendez the future of our Earth
For that peace
and the amitiè
prevail á never.

Actually right around here is where the song ends in the credits roll I am not certain what the rest is unless lthey actually wrote a full song to this

Robotech delivered you all the secrets,
The mystëres of the science of tomorrow.
Do you beat, we will be all to your cötés -
In the stars,
Against the evil,
For an ideal...

Robotech... Robotech...

Courageous Rick, Pretty Minmei,
We will be all á your cötés
For that triumph for eternity
LOVE and friendship.

Forward, fighter of the light;
Our life you have it between your hands.
Dèfendez the future of our Earth
For that peace and the amitiè prevail á never.
Robotech delivered you all the secrets,
The mystëres of the science of tomorrow.
Do you beat, we will be all to your cötés -
In the stars,
Against the evil,
For an ideal...

Robotech... Robotech... Robotech... Robotech...
