"The Spirit of XDA"

Well, since not everyone apparently appreciated the style of my prior effort :rolleyes: , I offer a rock version in keeping with my namesake.

XDA app users, this will be all screwed up. Either wait until you are at a PC, or try using the browser (in landscape mode ;) )

"The Spirit of XDA"----------------------------------------------------------------------------"The Spirit of Radio"-Rush

Begin the day on XDA------------------------------------------------------------------------Begin the day with a friendly voice,

The knowledge, so elusive------------------------------------------------------------------A companion unobtrusive

Search, those terms are so confusing--------------------------------------------------Plays that song that's so elusive

And the magic forum makes your morning mood.----------------------------------And the magic music makes your morning mood.

Copy the file, flash a newer ROM,--------------------------------------------------------Off on your way, hit the open road,

There is magic at your fingers-------------------------------------------------------------There is magic at your fingers

For the Spirit ever lingers,-------------------------------------------------------------------For the Spirit ever lingers,

Finding answers posted by a very friendly dude.-----------------------------------Undemanding contact in your happy solitude.

(chorus)--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------(chorus)

Millions of phones out there sparkle with light---------------------------------------Invisible airwaves crackle with life

My antenna's consuming all my battery-----------------------------------------------Bright antenna bristle with the energy

The dev has posted a brand new release----------------------------------------------Emotional feedback on timeless wavelength

XDA is a gift beyond price, almost free-------------------------------------------------Bearing a gift beyond price, almost free

(chorus)--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------(chorus)

All the great ROMs out there---------------------------------------------------------------All this machinery making modern music

Can still be open sourced--------------------------------------------------------------------Can still be open-hearted.

Not so coldly posted, it's really just a checksum-----------------------------------Not so coldly charted, it's really just a question

Of file integrity...yeah, integrity.------------------------------------------------------------Of your honesty, yeah, your honesty.

One likes to believe in the freedom of coding,----------------------------------------One likes to believe in the freedom of music,

But copying/pasting and never giving credits------------------------------------------But glittering prizes and endless compromises

Can be detected by committee using baksmali...yeah----------------------------Shatter the illusion of integrity....yeah

(chorus)----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------(chorus)

For the words of the source code were written on developers walls,----------For the words of the prophets were written on the studio wall,

Procedure Calls!----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Concert hall

And echoes with sounds of Google. Of Google. Of Google.----------------------And echoes with the sounds of salesmen. Of salesmen. Of salesmen.
