Always the first to die

The song has been around for a bit. I first heard it in 2001, and have yet until now found where to download it. The friend who let me listen to it is long since moved on. Its great, for any of us gamers who know people who play mages. One of the best DnD songs or sound peices I have heard to date, I hear there are a couple other good ones. The others tend to be.... well annoying after a while. "I cast magic missle on the darkness!" and "If there are girls there I want to dooo themmm!" have been used way way way too often.

Hey guys,

I saw on your site you were looking to credit who wrote "Always the First to Die". It is absolutely amazing to me that my song has spread like it did. I wrote that song in 1998 and used to play it at work for my geek friends. As a lark, I recorded it at my cousin's house because he had some equipment setup, but I honestly don't remember sending it to anyone, MAYBE one or 2 people. So, we were at GenCon this weekend and I heard a guy say he had heard the song "Always the first to die". I remarked that I had written a song called that and to my absolute shock, he started SINGING THE WORDS. I was beside myself with disbelief. So, 5 minutes of googling later revealed that it is indeed out there, circulating. I even saw a flash movie someone made!

So yeah, it was indeed me. You can credit "Jinx from jinx.com", that would be great. It's the only song I've written about D&D (thus far), and one of the only songs I ever wrote.

Right!

Well, nobody there seems to have heard of it, so I dug around a bit on the net and found several references to the song, all uncredited. I also found a Google-cached page of someone claiming to have written the song who posted the lyrics to a beta MSN group (it no longer exists). On that post, they went by the name "MS Xero." The URL is (long URL reduced to this text by the editor) in case you're interested. Looks like the song was purely a fan work, and apparently nobody wants to take credit for it.

I'm grabbing the song right now. If I can find out who the artist is, I'll be sure to let you know! Remember Casa de Chaos, where I used to live? They're the kind of people who more than likely either will know who did it, or did it themselves.
