Parody: Tethered Mage
Artist: Billy Ocean
Album: The Very Best of Billy Ocean
Track number on album: 9
Duration: 4:09
Fodder rating (out of 5): 4
The song is nothing extraordinary. Just another love song. The question is what you can do with the like.
As the song is about a relationship which has not gone bad (although the guy singing it shows just a bit of concern), it did not particularly call for my old usual method of using Pirates of the Caribbean material to make the song a story of a nightmare. Instead, I used it to experiment with the subject of Tethers. Not all of the original song fits the theme, but enough of it did to show how nice it can be for me to occasionally not turn a song on its head.
