Darth Vader was framed

The nerd in me nearly passed out when I heard about Disney's new project, Star Wars anyone? Eeeeeek! I'm a complete hopeless puddle of comic-con fuelled desperation whenever this cultural phenomenon is mentioned. I. Love. Star Wars. I probably own every piece of Star Wars memorabilia that one could have come across in my teenage years. Even a life-size Darth Vader. Yeah, Barney Stinson ain't got nothing on me. Bow to your queen padawans.

In glorious celebration of this geekiful turn of events, I have decided to introduce you to my list of Star Wars - inspired songs. Some of them are pretty awesome. And others - a lil' bit weird (cue rapping Yoda). The shit you can find on the internet is crazy.

1. A New Hope - Blink182



2. Put Yo Hood Up - Set your Goals (I promised rapping Yoda)



3. Supernova - Chewbacca



4. Weird Al - The Saga Begins (You can't skip Weird Al)

 
 
5. Reel Big Fish - Imperial March (a little SKA)



6. Rage Against the Machine - Imperial March (boom baby)



7. Star Wars Gangsta Rap (whaaaaat?)



8. Chris Bodily - Pretty Fly for a Jedi



9. The Presidents of the United States of America - Deathstar (Live at Groningen)



10. Eddie Izzard - Death Star Canteen (Oky, so this is not a song, but hell, Eddie izzard is a comedy genius and must be included. Deal with it.)


Now I will go watch all 7 the Star Wars movies out of pure fan-based extremity. And yes, Clone Wars count too.

Now scamper off and do the same. And may the force be with you.
