Okay, the next song is up, as requested by Rulez and as selected by a random generator:

Hey, rave party!

The drawing is very cool, congrats!

If you need a translation in English, here's the lyrics:

You dance, you laugh!
Yes, it's party at your friends!
You play, you sing!
It's party (during) all the afternoon!
You play, you sing, you dance, you laugh!

Thanks again!

I've just added annotations to the video

Slightly off-topic:

Do you think you could do the same for the English with Rayman intro at some point? We've been waiting to have it translated for ages!

Sure, I can try!

I write it here, like this, everyone can read it.

TRANSLATION OF THE FRENCH INTRODUCTION OF ENGLISH WITH RAYMAN

In Rayman's world, all was happiness and quietness.
One day, where Betilla the fairy and I were taking advantage of those delights, I have received a mysterious letter...
"She comes from my English cousin! I haven't seen this old Andrew since a long time! We have grown up together, and we have passed our magician's diploma the same day. (Laughing) We got up to some real tricks, Andrew and me! When he went abroad, we have sworn to exchange our most powerful magic secrets to each other. It's probably the subject of his letter... But... But... It's in English! I can't make head or tail of it! Oh! What a shame! It's most probably an extremely important magic secret, and we can't decipher!"
What we didn't suspect, it's that the vile Mister Dark was spying on us. He had overheard our conversation. Then, he has pounced on us by surprise, and he made off with the letter of my cousin! Then, in an awful laugh, he cast a spell of his invention on us...
If nobody intervenes, Betilla and I will be transformed in vulgar garden gnomes in few hours! And Mister Dark would have all the time to decipher and use the magic secret instead of us! Oh no! No! We must prevent this at any price!
"Rayman to the rescue! Take back the letter of my cousin to Dark! Decipher the secret in English before him and neutralize this spell!"

Some expressions come from my Harrap's dictionary.
I hope this is correct and comprehensible.

So Betilla and the Magician are the Garden Raygnomes that are mooning Rayman in the Fairy Council? Wow... could this mean that instead of saving them, Rayman mistakenly murders them, turns them into dust? Jesus, I will not sleep today.

WELL I already had a 3-hour nap, sooo

I think I mentioned that once. XD I said that Mr Dark probably turned all the limbless people into gnomes and Rayman killed them all.

Yay! The more we know! That part sounds strangely adorable.

And if Mr Dark's spell would have turned Betilla and the Magician into gnomes in 'a few hours', then that means that the whole English with Rayman game/story took place over just less than 'a few hours' 0_o

Thank you so much for the translation, boomboleros7!

Don't worry, I remember every single post of the 668544 posted on this forum. Even the ''cock'' one I once posted.

Hahaha you said cock

I hope boomboleros7 doesn't mind translating the Magician's song when it is uploaded, I am really curious of what the lyrics are. XD

EDIT: aagh this post went messed up

Anyway, annotations are up:

Ahaha you found it, Electoon! That's the one!

But.... What if that IS what happened?

There was originally more to the post with the quote in, but it went screwy. I'll post it again

THEdragon wrote:I just had a scary thought. You know how at the beginning of English with Rayman, Betilla and the Magician get turned into garden gnomes by Mr Dark? And you know how in Rayman 3, there are lots of garden gnomes that look kinda like Rayman?

What if the reason Rayman is the only one of his kind after Rayman 1 is because the rest of his species was turned into garden gnomes!? D8

I think our Andrew conspiracy theories did start to get a little concerning....

EDIT: Also, it definitely took me more then 'a few hours' to complete English with Rayman X(

Andrew is Mr. Dark you sillies. Must I tell you the story again?

Rulez wrote:Andrew is Mr. Dark you sillies. Must I tell you the story again?

Nope, it will be told in Rayman Legends 2, when Rayman discovers spider eggs in his icecream.

Nope it's right here

Rulez wrote: Isn't it obvious? Andrew is actually Mr. Dark! It all makes sense now - Andrew decided that his British accent is enough for him to become a supervillain so he became Mr. Dark but held it in secret from his cousin, the Magician. Andrew sent the letter to his cousin, knowing he doesn't know English (at least in this version of the game). He knew that the Magician wouldn't understand and would send Rayman on the quest. Mr. Dark/Andrew knew Rayman was at the time young and retarded, so he filled the world with easy questions, where the wrong ones end in death on Rayman's side. So basically, he just wanted Rayman to die, and thought up an evil, cunning plan. And after Mr. Dark died/was defeated, the Magician found out it was actually his cousin. Wanting to avenge the death of his family member, he decided to impersonate Mr. Dark (which he was also secretly hoping to do, because he found Mr. Dark a pretty cool guy).

EDIT:

Nearly forgot this bit:

Rulez wrote: Andrew/Mr. Dark sent it for the sole purpose of Rayman going on a dangerous quest so he would hopefully die. Mr. Dark thought it through, though! He sent his cousin a recipe for a poison. If Rayman succeeded like he did in the game, it would kill everybody. Because let's be honest here - would you eat Scottish spider eggs ice cream?

Yeah, me neither.

Ah, the glorious memories! They are returning! All those beautiful thoughts we shared.

Yes, it's as I said. Andrew used to look like the Magician but when he started doing black magic he fucked up and turned into a Teensy. He started going madder and madder and he became the only sane person in the Glade of Dreams. Why? Well in the real world where the normal people are sane, and one would go insane, in the Glade people are retarded so he would turn sane. It's logic. So he noticed the Bubble Dreamer is just a fat dick who doesn't even care about his world, so he decided to take it over and set peace.

That is a fine peice of creative literature you have there, Rulez!

Are you gonna upload the basketball song Electoon?

Sure! It will have to wait until after my exams though. Luckily, my last one is tomorrow afternoon, so you can expect me to me more active after then

Oh cool Just how many songs are in this game anyway? Well, Rayman DID sing about how he likes music, so...

In total?

23 prize songs sung by Rayman (those are the ones like the music and rave song that I've shared)
4 character sing alongs
4 English Workshop songs

And I ripped as many incidental pieces as I could (the ones in the menus were impossible to rip without sound effects getting in the way, even if turned off ). I also ripped a couple of atmospheric tracks (eg. bird song) that I liked , and a couple of the tracks were just Rayman 1 soundtrack, so I didn't bother with those.

Conclusion = a lot
