Kasumi does Kate Bush (Original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1pMMIe4hb4)

Back in that old, crumbling castle
That's where you first met me.
You lost a servant like my loyalty:
Too kiss-ass, too needy.
How could you leave us,
When we needed you to rule us?
I missed you. I had a crush on you, too.

Bad dreams in the night.
My Shrike Rune couldn't help me win this fight,
Leave behind my Rokaku Rokaku
Rokaku Hamlet.

Lord Tir, it's me Kasumi.
Come home. I'm so lonely!
Let me stare through your window.

Lord Tir, it's me Kasumi.
Come home. I'm so turned on!
Let me lurk in your window.

Ooh, it gets dark! It gets dreary,
In Toran Republic without you.
I swoon a lot. I tingle a lot
while fantasizing about you.
I'm coming now, sir!
Silent McDohl, my wet dream,
My former master.

Too long I skulk in the night.
I'm coming back to his house, to put it right.
I'm coming home to Gregmin, Gregmin,
Gregminster,

Lord Tir, it's me Kasumi.
Come home. I'm so desperate!
Let pose near your window.

Lord Tir, it's me Kasumi.
Come home. I'm so antsy!
Press me up against your window.

Ooh! You can have it.
Your rune can eat my soul away.
Ooh! I'll let you have it.
Let your rune devour my soul away.
You know it's me Kasumi!

Lord Tir, it's me Kasumi.
Come home. I'm so lustful!
Let me sneak in your window.

Lord Tir, it's me Kasumi.
Come home. I'm so bold!
Let me smash through your window.

Wow, you guys are always doing full songs!
Bruce, here’s some more suikodenized Boney M…

GOTTA GO HOME (Prince Falenas version of that Boney M song)
Original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ww-pQynEDI

Headin' for the island
We're ready Boz and packed to go
When at Nirva island
There's gonna be a big hello
Searching all unique stuff
It's easy not to say goodbye, bye, bye, bye
Headin' for the island
Heyeah, we're really sailin' high

Gotta go home, home, home
Gotta go home, home, home
Gotta go home, home, home
Gotta go home, home, home
Gotta go home

Skaldy gives some speeches
And Bernadette is standing there
Mighty massive peaches
But she’s the sister of my dad
Lighthouse liberation
And then we're ready for goodbye, bye, bye, bye
Leaving all the beaches
An old ship graveyard is nearby

Gotta go home…

UPDATE: OK, a bit of Skunk Anansie now (original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tm_zX8 ... tm_zX8Nj2E)
This song is about the tempestuous friendship between Lazlo and Snowe.

We've been training all this time
To be experts in maritime
I grew to be so disciplined
Because you're the noble who took me in

I upstaged you one day
You took this in a bad way
You disobeyed our Commander Glen
Then he punched you squarely on the chin

So now, you're embarrassed,
Ashamed - and you're bruised

You wanna be Captain Snowe
So you should be on your own
Instead of here with us... Vingerhut...

You got me banished from home
I took charge of a rebellion
You're talking out so horrified
About knights and pirates and your friggin' pride

So now, you feel lousy
You're hurt - and confused

You wanna be Commander Snowe
So you should be on your own
Instead of here with us... Vingerhut...

So now, you've been stranded
Outcast, feeling screwed

You couldn't be Captain Snowe
You ended up on your own
You'll never be Commander Snowe
So just admit it's Commander Lazlo
Then you can be with us... Vingerhut...

Vingerhut...

THE MESSAGE (Riou version of that Grandmaster Flash song)
Original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4o8TeqKhgY

[Riou about the winger district of Two River]
It's like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder how I keep from going under
It's like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder how I keep from going under

Broken glass everywhere
People pissing on the stairs, you know they just don't care
I can't take the smell, can't take the noise
Got no money to move out, I guess I got no choice

Rats in the sewers, roaches on my back
Wingers in the alley with a baseball bat
I tried to pass through, but it only got worse
'Cause a boy with two wings repossessed my purse

Don't push me, 'cause I'm close to the edge
I'm trying not to lose my head ha-ha-ha-ha
It's like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder how I keep from going under

Staying by the wingers, hangin out the window
Watching all the flyers-by, burping as the breezes blow
Old crazy lady, livin in the back
Eating out of spinach pails, used to be my grandpa’s slag

Said, she danced the tango, skipped the light fandango
Been a busty princess, grandpa lost his senses
Down at the peepshow, serving all the creeps
So now she tells the stories to the kids back home
She went to the city and got Social Security
She had to get a thief, she couldn't make it on her own

Don't push me, 'cause I'm close to the edge
I'm trying not to lose my head ha-ha-ha-ha
It's like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder how I keep from going under
It's like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder how I keep from going under

Pilika is going to give us her rendition of Celine Dion now (original song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pDxoj-tDDIU) It's originally a love song but we're turning it into a song for an orphaned child and her surrogate uncle.

First, let's picture the scene: L'Renouille royal suite, Jowy is saying his final goodbye to Pilika.

Jowy: … So don't forget, Pilika. Enjoy the moments you have together, because nothing lasts forever. Okay?

Pilika: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Jowy: Pilika. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Pilika: Okay.... I understand.... But, but, but can I ask just one favor?

Jowy: What is it, Pilika?

Pilika: Can you pick me up and hold me like my daddy used to? Just once, please.

Jowy picks up Pilika and holds her in a fatherly embrace.

Pilika: My daddy... He used to hold me like this... Just... like... this...

(Cue Power Vocals)

There was a time when my life was so calm
That I could play outside all day
and not worry about
Being kidnapped, scared or threatened.

There was a day when the Highlanders came
Then they pillaged everything
That I held dear and then
My world was changed forever

I couldn't stop crying when you found me on my own
Standing amid the blackened remains of my home town
And the horrors that I witnessed caused me a speech impediment

But when you pick me up like this
And you hold me like that
I just have to admit
That it's all coming back to me
When I hug you like this
And I hold you like that
It's so hard to believe but
It's all coming back to me
(It's all coming back, it's all coming back to me now)

There were moments of Black Swords
And there were clashes of Bright Shields
There were things I hoped I never see again
And wounds that never would be healed
There were nights of endless sadness
It was more than any wars allow
Uncle Jowy

If you comfort me like this
And if I mumble like that
My voice was lost long ago
But it's all coming back to me
If you lift me like this
And if you hold me like that
I was mute long ago
But it's all coming back to me
It was hard to project
But it's all coming back to me
I could barely form words
But it's all coming back to me now

But you betrayed us with the stabbing of the mayor
And I had to run away with Nanami and Riou
And it's been an ongoing struggle between the three of you since then

But if you walk away like this
And if I follow you like that
It was so long ago
But it's all coming back to me
If you talk to me like this
And if I listen to you like that
It was gone with my voice
But it's all coming back to me
(It's all coming back, it's all coming back to me now)

There were moments of battle
And there were flashes of runes
There were friendships that were made
But then they'd always end too soon
There were nights of endless dying
It was more than all your wars allow
Uncle, Uncle Jowy

When you lift me like this
And when you hold me like that
It was gone with my voice
But it's all coming back to me
When you look down at me like this
And when I look up at you like that
Then we see how we're supposed to be
All coming back to me

The deaths and the tragedies
All coming back to me
I don't want to recall
But it's all coming back to me now

If you apologize for all this
If I forgive you all that
We forgive and forget
And it's all coming back to me now

I've finally picked a man's song. This is Cats in the Cradle (original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUwjNBjqR-c) the McDohl version.

My child arrived just the other day
He came to the world in the usual way
But there were wars to fight and traitors to slay
He learned to walk while I was away
And he was talkin' 'fore I knew it, and as he grew
He'd say "I'm gonna be like you, Dad
You know I'm gonna be like you"

And Cleo's secret journal and Gremio's special stew
Little boy raised in the Empire of Scarlet Moon
When you comin' home, Dad
I don't know when, but we'll get together then
You know we'll have a good time then

My son turned ten just the other day
He said, "Thanks for the staff, Dad, come on let's train
can you teach me to fight", I said "Not today
I got a lot to do", he said, "That's ok
And he walked away but his smile never dimmed
And said, "I'm gonna be like him, yeah
You know I'm gonna be like him"

And Pahn's binge eating habits and Gremio's Special Stew
Little boy serving in the Empire of Scarlet Moon
When you comin' home, Dad
I don't know when, but we'll get together then
You know we'll have a good time then

Well, I came back to Gregminster just the other day
And the house was empty and Barbarosa did say
"Your son's a traitor we're gonna put him down"
And I shook my head and I said with a frown
"If anyone's gonna kill him then it has to be me,
Alen, Grenseal - bring the armoured cavalry"

And the flowers in Milich's mansion and Gremio's Special Stew
Little boy betraying the Empire of Scarlet Moon
When you comin' home son
I don't know when, but we'll get together then, Dad
You know we'll have a good time then

I've long since arrived at my son's home base
I stormed over to his castle just the other day
I said, "I have to punish you for your unforgivable crime"
He said, "Sorry, Dad, I'm afraid not this time
You see the court mage is a skank and the emperor's a douche
So I'm gonna have to beat you now, Dad
I'm not looking forward to fighting with you"

And as he battered me with his staff it occurred to me
He'd grown up just like me
My boy was just like me

And the flame-throwing spears and the curse of the True Rune
Little boy trampling all over Scarlet Moon
When you comin' home son
I don't know when, but we'll get together then, Dad
We're gonna have a good time then

Classic! :lol:

Here are two brief ones...
MMMBOB (Suikoden version of Hanson’s “MMMBop)
Original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHozn0YXAeE

You have so many adversaries in this life
Only one or two will last
You go through all the pain and strife
As you turn from man into rat so fast
Oh yeah
And they're gone so fast, yeah
Oh so only the ones who really dare
In the end they'll be the only ones there
And when you get mad and start swinging your stick
Tell me who won’t shoot a brick
Can you tell me who won’t shoot a brick?
Oh, a brick

Mmm Bob, ba duba dop ba
Doo Bob, doo baba
Doo Bob, ba duba dop ba
Doo, yeah


ANOTHER GUY TO MOBILIZE (Suikoden version of Phil Collin’s “Another day in paradise”)
Original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YiUQE5bJKFU

[About Koyu meeting Riou]
He calls out to the boy on the street
"Dude, can you help me?
I am Koyu and your lord I must meet
Is he somewhere you can tell me?"

He walks on, doesn't look back
He pretends he can't hear
Starts to whistle as he crosses the street
Seems embarrassed to be here

Riou to player: “Oh think twice
It's another guy for you and me to mobilize
Oh think twice
It's just another guy for you, you and me to mobilize”

[About Riou meeting Rikimaru]
He calls out to the man on the street
He can see he's been starving
He's got blisters on the soles of his feet
He can't walk but he's trying

Riou to player: “Oh think twice
It's another guy for you and me to mobilize
Oh think twice
It's just another guy for you, you and me to mobilize”

For the musical theater fans out there:

"You Gotta Get a Castle" (a play on "You Gotta Get a Gimmick" from the musical Gypsy)

MARIE:
You can take on the Empire
Windy and a vampire
Fight until Toran is free
But you gotta get a castle in you wanna recruit me

There's a shelf to place a lamp on
It looks like a tampon
Jutting straight out of the sea
But you gotta get a castle if you wanna recruit me

You can (whack!), you can (whack!), you can (whack!)(whack!)(whack!) <--- Marie swings a feather duster like a sword on each (whack!)
Until you are the best
So go (whack!), so go (whack!), so go (whack!)(whack!)(whack!)
But I'll charge your ass to rest

[Marie performs a ballet with wounded soldiers punctuated by the sound of a cash register]

Rest those sore and stiff joints
And regain your hit points
But you cannot do it for free
You gotta get a castle if you wanna recruit me!!!

MAAS:
All that (whack!), all that (whack!), all that (whack!)(whack!)(whack!) <--- Maas smacks his hammer against his anvil on each (whack!)
It won't amount to spit
Sword won't (whack!), it won't (whack!), it won't (whack!)(whack!)(whack!)
Until I sharpen it!

[Maas performs a Stomp-esque funky percussion/tap combination while hammering on an anvil]

You won't regret it later
Your damage will be greater
Than you ever thought it could be
But you've gotta get a castle if you wanna recruit me!!!

KAI:
You could (whack!), you (whack!), you could (whack!)(whack!)(whack!) <--- Kai makes flourishing sweeps with his staff on each (whack!)
All through the day and night!
Don't just (whack!), don't just (whack!), don't just (whack!)(whack!)(whack!)
Try this cheesy-ass unite!

[Kai and a backup dancer dressed as Tir do a ballet-like routine where they mow down hordes of enemies]

I make the game too easy
Random battles will be breezey
Dead before they go, watch and see
But you gotta get a castle if you wanna recruit me!!!

ALL THREE:
Sansuke, Onil, Sergei
Chandler and Lorelai
Antonio's the lamest by far

I know that it's a hassle
But when you've got a castle
Your army will excel and go far

[The three do a dance that shows off their respective skills]

MAAS:
Wanna stop your schleppin'?
Let me boost your weapon!

KAI:
Really wanna clean up?
Use our broken team-up!

MARIE:
Wanna rest here honey?
Make sure you've got money!

ALL THREE:
Get yourself a castle and you, too
Can gather Stars!

That was awesome, wataru14! I loved how you included the script of the play. Please more.

BRING BACK THAT G-BOY PRIME (Suikoden 5 version of Queen’s “Bring back that Leroy Brown”)
Original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PflW5arQ2-o

[Frey & allies]
Bring back, bring back, bring back that g-boy Prime - yeah
Bring back, bring back, gotta bring that g-boy Prime - back

[Miakis]
Bet your ruthless Arshtat kill you're a bad boy
Daddy Cool with a ninety murder file
Took her life out of gratitude
And he git right outa town - well
I gotta getty up, steady up, hunt him down
Gotta hit that canny dude - babe

[Frey & allies]
Bring back, bring back, bring back that g-boy Prime - yeah
Bring back, bring back, gotta bring that g-boy Prime - back

[Miakis]
Big bad g-boy Prime he got no common sense - no, no
He got no runes but he sure gotta lot sword style
Can't but bring him in this here jail
I gotta capture him for his sentence
Gotta get out the heat, step into the shade
Gotta get him here dead or alive - babe

[Frey & allies]
Wooh, wooh, big bad g-boy, wooh, wooh,
Wooh, wooh, big bad g-boy - Prime - well
Bring back, bring back, bring back that g-boy Prime - yeah
Bring back, bring back, gotta bring that g-boy Prime - back

[Galleon]
Big Mama Queen Arshtat she had a nervous breakdown
(Frey & allies: She had a nervous breakdown)
She has taken her honey’s life away
But Georg stopped more devastation
Put his long sword to her back
And unless I be mistaken
This is what she said
"Big bad g-boy, big bad g-boy Prime
I'm gonna thank you and goodbye"

[Frey & allies]
Bring back, bring back, bring back that g-boy Prime - yeah
Big bad caused a mighty fine sensation
Gone and got himself a wanted criminal
(We want g-boy for bodyguard)
Next time, you gotta hit a bitty baddy weather
This time, like a shimmy, shammy leather
He's a big boy, bad boy, g-boy
I don't care where you get him from
Bring that big bad g-boy back
Want him back

THE WINNER TAKES IT ALL (Linfa and Tai Ho version of that Abba song)
Original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3WGqAr7nUc

[Linfa]
I don't wanna talk, about things I've gone through
Though it's hurting me, now it's history
I've played all my cards, and that's what you've done too
Nothing more to say, no more ace to play

The winner takes it all, the loser's standing small
Beside the victory, that's our destiny

I was in your army, thinking I belonged there
I figured it made sense, building me a fence
Building me a home, thinking I'd be strong there
But I was a fool, playing by the rules

[Tai Ho]
The gamblers throw the dice, their minds as cold as ice
And throw a 1-2-3, double potch for me
The winner takes it all, the loser has to fall
It's simple and it's plain, it’s Chinchirorin

But now you throw the dice, like they used to throw them
It is not the same, 1-1-1 oh shame
Somewhere deep inside, I know I should help you
But what can I say? Rules must be obeyed

The 3 dice will decide, the likes of me abide
My name is Tai Ho, I’m ready to row
The game is on again, Yam Koo is my friend
A big bet or a small, the winner takes it all

I don't wanna win, if it makes you feel sad
And I understand, I should lend you a hand
I apologize, if it makes you feel bad
Seeing you so dense, no self-confidence
But you see
The winner takes it all
The winner takes it all...
