So, I got a little bit of free time and decided to make a quick song dedicated to the new version of WordPress. Colin had the brilliant idea of using Nelly’s song “Air Force Ones’. So, I did this a number of weeks ago thinking I’d have time to make a video. I don’t. So, here’s a zip file with my latest installment of embarrassment…

Lyrics
(To the song: “Air Force Ones” by Nelly)
I said give me WordPress
’cause I need WordPress
So I could get upgradin’ version 2.1
Upgradin’ to version 2.1
I liked the old one, stable and quickest that they could make it
But now with AJAX, tabs, and so much new stuff I could rake it
You can export so just in your chair and shake it
Ella is the new shit, there aint no way to fake it
You throw in privacy options and you and you never get a ping
Sittin on auto save means I’ll never a lose a thing
The brand new login screen is so fresh and so clean
Uploading is so simple we should be paying some green
But Matt would never allow automattic it, aint mean
But if he did I would because you know I’m so keen
You think it slow man
Domas cleaned a ton man
Don’t need a new spam plugin they’ve got one man
just go download the zip file and test it out some man
I promise and swear that it’ll disappoint you none man
I said give me WordPress
cause I need WordPress
So I could get upgradin version 2.1
Upgrading to version 2.1
Confused? Read about the cool new changes at WordPress.org.
Enjoy
Happy Saturday. I need a new hobby.
Who needs Wordpress? You need Wordpress!
Who needs a hobby? You need a hobby!
Perhaps the music keeps me sane.
That is so effin cool!!!
Dugg!

Devin, didn’t your mama teach you not to tease gayboys like this? I played it on my winamp player, the sound is so good. I know you’re in love with wordpress, but you really need to address the needs of your audience, and give us some more visuals.
I know what we need
Pool party videos and girls in bikinis
I’ll try to work on that, Ralph.
Still waitin’ on the video though. Word.
Great!
I uploaded your song to Odeo:

Now Wordpress.com users can celebrate along!
I have to agree with previous commentators, a video would be pretty sweet.
how about a cameo of Diddy or Jay-z?
Fantastic!

(Not sure why you stuck it in a zip file, guess maybe to discourage hot linking)
Awesome stuff. I can’t wait for a WP 2.2
I zipped it because people have asked for it in the past. I hope it’s not too inconvenient.
If there’s time… some day… there will be a video.
lol very nice. WoW is my hobby but don’t stop now! i was thoroughly entertained.
Every new version will have a new rap? That’s hilarious. How about when WP 2.1.1 comes out?
I tried WoW (15 day trial). I quickly realized it needs to stop at the trial or I’ll get sucked in too deep.
Haha, who said there’s a rap every version? I just happened to be bored and Colin pointed out a convenient rhyme. Haha…
wow, Devin, you’ve reached a whole new level of dorkiness…it’s quite entertaining =)
1 for wordpress
We are all needing wordpress, specialy the stat’s plugins on wordpress.com

Ha! This is awesome. I was thinking about writing a “wordpress upgrade song”, and someone told me about this…very cool!
Still waitin’ on the video though. Word.
Hahaha! Great verses there man! I love Wordpress!! The best blogging platform reppin’!!
