Mine Diamonds

OverviewEdit

Mine Diamonds is a Minecraft Parody of the song "Take On Me". The original video's title is "MINE DIAMONDS | miNECRAFT PARODY OF TAKE ON ME" uploaded by "MineCraft Awesome Parodys" on November 20th, 2016. It currently has over 35.3 Million views on Youtube. The video consists of a poorly-drawn MS-Paint picture and a kid singing his parody song "Mine Diamonds". The song became infamous with how uncomfortable the singing can get around the Chorus, what with the voice tone and very loud singing on the low-quality microphone. It's also notable for how simplistic it is, with the poorly-made picture, low camera quality, many coughs and pauses throughout, and even someone saying "Shut the f*cking door!" in the background.

LyricsEdit

*Music (earrape) Start!*

[Intro]

"Alright guys, *cough* I'm doing 'Take On Me' now, alright. I, I really, I really like this song, it sounds good."

[Verse 1]

Minin' away

I don't know, what to mine

I'll mine this anyway

In this Minecraft day, so beautiful

Mine further down

What's that I found?

[Chorus]

Mine diamonds (Take on me)

Mine diamonds (Take on me)

I'll mine them

So far I've got two!

[Verse 2]

So easy to mine

With my Minecraft pickaxe and shovels

Hopefully they stay

In my Minecraft chests

So I'm gonna make

A lock on it

[Chorus]

Mine diamonds (Take on me)

Mine DIAMONDS! (Take on me)

I'll mine them!

So far I've got two!

[Bridge]

"Ah *cough*, *sniff*, *cough*, *cough*, *cough*, *cough*, *cough*, *sniff*, *cough* I'm alright, I'm ready"

[Verse 3]

All these diamonds

Sittin' carefully lay

I'm getting worried ("Oy, STOP!") or ("SHUT UP")

If they might get stolen From my ender chest

Wait, who is that?

Holy sheep, it's Notch!

[Chorus]

Mine diamonds (Take on me)

Mine diamonds (Take on me)

Now they're safe

Woahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Now... Now that they're safe

Woahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Mine diamonds, *HEAVY breathin* (Take on me)

Mine diamonds (Take on me)

[Outro]

"Uh, Thanks, thanks for listening guys and thanks for recommending this song"

*Music End!*
