I FINALLY sat myself down and recorded vocals for this thing. I had to have the music re-written in order to do so, but it turned out great! So then, if you are a fan of the text version, I am sure you will like this version!
By the way, I'm looking for a literary agent to publish my fiction novel, so if you are one (or know of one) check out my webpage and drop me a line!
UPDATE - My movie was, evidentially, entered in a contest at GameTrailers.com. I did not win, but I did make the finalists. You can see all the finalists in
GT Weekly 24 and you can discuss the winners of the contest in their
forums.
I have been asked to provide an MP3 of the song in this film. You can find it here:
The Great Kodo - With Vocals!.mp3
Here are two ring tones of The Great Kodo, courtesy of crystalgonzales:
The Great Kodo Ring Tone
The Great Kodo Ring Tone (Instrumental)
All glory and honor goes to Jesus Christ,
for I have no right or reason to think too much of myself. Besides, I smell like an unwashed kodo.

Many fans of the old movie have contacted me wanting to sing the song. I decided to go with my own version, but would love to hear you singing it as well! E-mail me a link to an mp3 of yourself singing it and I will post a link to it here.

Lyrics by Brandon M. Dennis:
"There is a certain beast that doesn�t live in snow
Nor mountain lands nor jungle vales nor in the sea you know
He wanders thriving grasslands and travels rolling plains
And is known by the Tauren as the great kodo
He�s got a massive horn and a sturdy rugged back
Can bear a Tauren or some baggage piled up in a stack
There is no other creature that can bear the Tauren weight
For they�d give other beasts a heart attack
No raptor mount or skelly horse or riding wolf will do
For they are only adequate for cooking in a stew
The kodo may be hungry and destroy your pumpkin farm
But the clumsy hungry kodo has a certain kind of charm
He hails from my birthplace, the great Mulgore land
And if you were truly honest you would surely understand that there
Ain�t no creature in the land or the sea quite as dear to me as the great kodo
The kodo is descended from the mighty steggadon
But except for in the deep crater the steggadon are gone
He migrated through Tanarus and north through Thousand Pins
And now he prances happily on Tauren owned lawn
He bore up the Tauren for a thousand years or more
Was used for leather for our tents, inspired our songs of lore
We owe the mighty kodo for sustaining our whole race
He�s the most honored herbivore in all Mulgore
No ugly ram or silly horse or riding cat will do
For they are only adequate for grinding into glue
The kodo may be hungry and destroy your pumpkin farm
But the clumsy hungry kodo has a certain kind of charm
He hails from my birthplace, the great Mulgore land
And if you were truly honest you would surely understand that there
Ain�t no creature in the land or the sea quite as dear to me as the great kodo
Some may see the kodo as an ugly scary beast
Probably them humans from the land far to the east
I can surely tell you that the kodo is quite tame
But if you touch his horns you�ll wind up quite deceased
Passive beasts of burden, we use in time of war
When they would wander through our lands and do things we abhor
The legendary great kodo shall serve us once again
And shall be our closest friend forevermore
No silly mecho-bird for Gnomes will ever do
For they always squawk and squeak and spit our oily goo
The kodo may be hungry and destroy your pumpkin farm
But the clumsy hungry kodo has a certain kind of charm
He hails from my birthplace, the great Mulgore land
And if you were truly honest you would surely understand that there
Ain�t no creature in the land or the sea quite as dear to me as the great kodo".
