Makke sings You can take your Quake and go away, I won't play it anyway
to the music of Cybernoid 2. This is a great song about the time when playing computer games meant fun, not because of the GeForce rendering that alien in shiny mirror-triple-FX, the game idea just seemed right for itself.
The lyrics are funny, not cheesy, the music is what I'd call slow Masterboy -disco with a bit of Apoptygma Berzerk.

Not to forget Makke's funny intro-speech where he goes back in time
while playing the guitar. 😊

The winner of Remix64's Great CD Giveaway Competition gives an outstanding example of innovative and successful usage of singing and entertaining lyrics in SID remixes. It it based on a short accoustic guitar version of Times of Lore (Martin Galway) in the intro and builds its two main parts upon perfectly blended Pop versions of Deel 3 and Cybernoid 2 (Jeroen Tel) for a total of 4:47. The lyrics just fit so well.
