Lyrics:
There once was a girl who could blend into the night
Her speed was like lightning her step as if in flight
And before she slipped away he tried to call her with a plea
Please my firecracker come back and dance with me
come and dance now firecracker
Stomp your feet to the rhythm
Come and dance now firecracker
Won’t you now heed our anthem
Set all the world into a mighty blaze
And dance the night away
Light up the night with your fiery gaze
He won’t forget your face
It was then that the girl came into his sight
Shining brighter than any star in the sky
Spinning round her feet kick the ground into a spark
Setting fire ablaze inside his heart
With her dance she began to warm his world again
And he knew he would love her until the end
come and dance now firecracker
Stomp your feet to the rhythm
Come and dance now firecracker
Won’t you now heed the anthem
come and dance now firecracker
Stomp your feet to the rhythm
Come and dance now firecracker
Won’t you now heed our anthem
come and dance now firecracker
Stomp your feet to the rhythm
Come and dance now firecracker
Won’t you now heed our anthem
come and dance now firecracker
Stomp your feet to the rhythm
Come and dance now firecracker
Won’t you now heed our anthem
come and dance now firecracker
Stomp your feet to the rhythm
Come and dance now firecracker
Won’t you now heed our anthem
We got a whole load of bards who are making a band. This is so cool hearing all the instruments they are playing be a part of the music.
Yeah, it's a bit weird to see a bagpipe in the animatic and not hear any actual bagpipes...
@@masonwheeler6536 you can hear the bagpipes throughout the song, like at 1:34
@@masonwheeler6536 they are actually pretty prominent. Well played bagpipes blend in really well, especially when there are other wind instruments as well.
A load of bards forming a band is also a threat to society.
@@mycrofthirschecke5271 A curse and a blessing
"Don't you look at me like that, I'm havin funnn" *Total fuckin vibe right there.*
Yup.
@@Forgotten_A.I. :]
LOL
DANCE FIRECRACKER DANCEEEEEE
DANCE AND JIVE
@@Cami-Cat thank you so much for this song
I'll take a pint as well
Yessir
Aye, another round for me
Feels like a party of musicians were just hanging out and decided to make a hype song for their friends. Bloody good song.
The dance monk was a nice touch too
I can just imagine a monk wearing fire enchanted footwear and dances in the middle of a fight while a bard plays music
Counter point. High Dex, high Cha, high Int Eladrin Evocation Wizard/Glamour Bard with meta magic adept and expertise in performance and stealth. Evocation wizard grants sculpted spells which permits up to two people to ignore the saves required by a spell cast by the evocation wizard. Cast create bonfire to use as a stage for her dance with meta magic permitting the flames to burst outward with each step and of course. This was one of my old favorite characters and that was one of her favorite party tricks and methods of performance and on a few occasions, she would drag a random person from the crowd into the fire with her. This was usually followed by casting fireball at her feet at the end of the performance followed up by a bonus action teleport leading into invisibility thus having escaped her stage with exactly no one knowing what happened or where she went.
I can just imagine during a DND campaign with only bards whenever it's their turn to roll initiative they must do so in song. And depending on how good their music is they may gain inspiration
Heck, make the campaign take place in a world without music to add some plot however cliche
@@JediSteve-J3- DnD footloose?
Now I really want to do an all bard campaign with my choir group.
Or maybe whoever rolls highest has to pick the song and sing lead?
May I reccomend bombarded, it's not quite that. But, they are an all bard podcast that writes music for their in game spells and other bard-like things. It's a fun time
The result of forming a party with only bards: Epic grandeur
The Bard brigade
And a hole lot of chaos lol
Imagine all of them trying to seduce the same npc, but not all of them want to share.
Also, if they encounter anyone with dispell magic they lose.
Or counter spell
Ahh Cami this is SO GOOD!!!! I’m always mesmerised with your songwriting and this is just next level!! Thank you for having me
My two favourite music KZheadrs in one place? Unbelievable!
MAKE A DUET YOU TWO!!
Thank you so so much for joining!! ;u;//
Team up with Annapantsu for Trio!
I think my heart might stop if y'all teamed up lol, I'd pay to hear it though, nice way to go out.
Can we talk about the art for this?? It looks incredible. Backing vocals really bring this together too, everyone did a fantastic job!
Agreed
F
S
Yes.
Is the "firecracker" the same girl as in Daybreak? If so, glad to see her having got over her existential crisis!
This sound familiar.... *Goes back to shanty collection* Oh~ That was it!!
Exactly what I was thinking
Thank you! I was wondering where I'd heard it
Same that makes sense listened to it on loop a few days ago
was looking for this!
.
Wait a second did I just hear Rienhardt from Overwatch go “bring me another” I swear I heard it at the end.
That, or Thor, since someone told them to not throw glasses
It doesnt sound like either I think it's just one of the vocalist saying it to give it the vibe of a festival and that one guy who wants to drink alot
It also helped that fairy became a UA race not too long after that video came out
This is what happens when you have a full bard party
4 bards 1 fighter
WOW!!!! I absolutely adore your D&D songs. Very very well done ♥
Thank you Jenny!!
Agreed. They are inspiring. They make me want to get and dance like no one is watching.
Funny enough, had a moment like this in a large scale dnd game where my crew and I were bards. Somehow stopped a war with charismatic music
Bards are truely amazing in dnd when you get past the stereotype lol anything can happen cus they arent locked to one type of personality like people think
Letsgoo dont wage war just sing
To quote that one Madonna song, “Music makes the people come together”! 😁
INCREDIBLE!! Not only is this song magnificent but the video looks stellar 😳🔥🔥🔥
Thanks so much again for joining up!
@@Cami-Cat 100% my pleasure. Thanks for having me! :3
The artworks for this song are amazing. The song is amazing. And cami's gremlin voice at the end was hilarious
how is your comment older than the video?
@@bobross-ze8vy patreon I presume get the video early
@@christianlingelbach5327 yes
She is totally beating out annapantsu and jocat for best bard on KZhead
Welp… it’s Official: Emirichu confirmed DnD content creator
I just about only know her from Instagram, yet seeing her as a pixie still seems completely normal XD
she made that one video about the pixie and how the story was never complete and they just all cracked their knuckles. "Darlings it's show time!"
I wonder if she's seen this
@@the24thcolossusjustchillin39 If not, we can easily remedy that.
[In rhythm with the music] _One of us. One of us._
After listening to this so many times, I've started to vibe with this song a lot. I remember how in my first campaign my barbarian built a relationship with the team's psychic rogue. She, like all rogues, had an edgy backstory. However, instead of using it to make the character edgy, she used it to create severe insecurity and an addiction to alcohol for the character. The rogue was very introverted and barely talked about her past, fearful that speaking about it may cause some unwanted reunions. My barbarian, on the other hand, comes from a very tribal and family centric clan that he was one day going to lead. He up took adventuring to become stronger, and to raise money for his clan to build a massive fleet so his clan may finally sail back to their home. He was very friendly to everyone and cared very deeply about those under his care, feeling that because he is the strongest, he must look after everyone. So when the two of them started adventuring on the same party, it was a rocky relationship. In combat, they were perfect together, but their personalities didn't really match. It wasn't until the rogue started opening up that they realized how much pain they had both been through. It also wasn't until that point that I realized that my barbarian would probably catch feelings for the rogue, because of how much they had shared and been through together. Apparently, the rogue's player felt the same way. Their relationship was very awkward but in a funny way for a long while. But over time they became must more...accustomed to each other. The Rogue didn't have a family anymore, and her home became a place she could never return to. So, when she was introduced to my barbarians "Welcome to the family"/"One of Us" clan, she felt like she finally had a place to belong to. I was genuinely surprised how the rogue so quickly accepted being part of the barbarians family and loving having a people to belong to. From there, the two were inseparable, and they even went on to go back to the rogues old home and finish her business there...together. In return, the rogue stayed with my barbarian as he sailed back home and took his homeland back. The two ended up living there together. Whenever I hear this song I think about the first time they admitted to having feeling for each other. The rogue was seriously contemplating leaving the group because she felt that she was becoming too popular as a member of the party. The barbarian stopped her and asked for her to spend one more night with them, and if not them, one more night with him. Thankfully, she didn't leave the party. I realize that a lot of the details to this are left out, but I didn't want to write everything down on a comment that's not gonna be seen, lol. I felt like I had to put this down though. It has evoked good vibes and feelings in me and that deserves attention. Amazing job Cami-Cat!!
Dude, that is such a genuinely beautiful love story! It's awesome that you guys created something so wonderful through your campaign! :D
This is so beautiful, thank you for sharing.
Dam very good story 👍
It has been seen It has been appreciated
I ship it ❤
Seeing the pixie playing a flute makes me want to play a pixie bard
You may want to check Emirichu's dnd character
@@SpectreCiNW i have seen it was very well done
Me: Listens to Katie Parries' "Firework" and thinks "Just not enough songs abou-" Cami-Cat does THIS... Me: "WHY ARE YOU SO AMAZING?!?!...please make more..."
I love how all your dnd originals have a pirate-y feel to them, because of course this folk hero tiefling from the rough and tumble port town would have that sort of influence.
3:23 “Bring me another!” Loki? Thor? Is that you?
Definatly Thor
Sounds more like Reinhardt to me.
@@Thamstras yea
This absolutely rocks!
The song was posted only hours ago. How is this comment a day old? What sorcery is THIS?!?
@@crediblecat7498 Cami isn't the only master of magic, lol
This explains why I couldn't find it after getting obsessed with this song on the sea shanty vid: it's original! It's great and I love it since hearing it in the sea shanty playlist vid
Same!!
What sea shanty Song?
I was listening this song during graduation prom (I'm quite asocial, so headphones are necessity in any scenerio). I forgot about this song for a while but when I listen again I can remember everything from the prom vividly (smells, fabric of dress, noises...)as if I was again there. Thank you for keeping my memories safe ❤
Everything from the art to the music is an absolute bop
Wow, just wow. The music, the singing, the background, the art, everything. This could be your magnum opus
But I hope that it isn’t
Me too.
For now
“Here’s a video that was posted five seconds ago” Then I click and see day old comments. XD Sorcery aside, didn’t even need to get past the ads to hit the like button. All your music is amazing and I’m sure after I finish typing this comment and listen I’ll be repeating it until I become physically ill from it. XP
They’re from 1 day ago because Patrons get premiere access. So, a sort of sorcerers, but not quite as ridiculous as you may have imagined. 😂
@@master0fthearts894 How informative. It’s almost as though I wasn’t being sarcastic for the sake of humour.
@@master0fthearts894 so they're warlocks, now it's all clear
@@master0fthearts894 Its not that, they get it on patreon. She said that she shows this to her close friends early.
Let's just take a moment to appreciate all these amazing, incredibly talented people who put so much effort into it: Taliesin, Vincent, Danarei, Plumeria - good job, guys, you did great. But, jokes aside - what a beautiful thing! Fell in love with Firecracker since first time I heard it in Sea Shanty Collection. Everyone did such a fantastic job: the art, the musical arrangement, the vocals, everything is fabulous. And, of course, hilarious ending is just an icing on the cake! Wonderful.
I first heard some of it on a steam Cami did a couple years ago I think. It was great then and even better now. I was stoked when I heard it on the shanty collection. I'd relisten to that just to hear this song.
I think everyone is taking more than a moment. Specifically 3 minutes and 46 seconds.
I was trying to remember where I heard this before. Thanks for the reminder!
You're welcome.
it's been a while since I last listenend to a cami-cat song I didn't know how much I missed it 'til now
I love that Plumeria was in this video
a party of bards a nightmare for DMs A dream for the players
That song hit me in ways I wasn't expecting. Don't ever let those flames go out!
Your D&D songs keep getting better and better. Also, we need the name of Danarei's band
How about...Three Demons & A Faerie or The Demonic Trio Plus Faerie
@@sadlobster1 I think "Fiends & Fae" has a nice ring to it.
@@illTemperedSeaBass Oh, yeah; that sounds much cooler
@@illTemperedSeaBass oooohhhh yeah!
@@illTemperedSeaBass yes I agree
I´ve been waiting for this ever since I saw the shanty video
the idea of a collection of four separate adventuring parties running into each other by sheer coincidence and then all of the party bards just joining together for one night gives me joy to no end
I like that this song uses a stomp-stomp-clap rhythm in the background that sounds nothing like We Will Rock You.
A detail I love is the fact that during the song the guy begins to see her differently, as she starts dancing her clothes shift from normal to a dress. 1:56
Cami's voice has so much power behind it
I just watched all of Cami songs again and realized their is a resemblance to Daybreak. So it is a story of how a broken rogue was in a city and a wandering adventure was mesmerized when he caught sight of her. He chased her down into a festival with spirits flying and people drinking. The rogue slowly breaking down from all the horror she was forced to commit when she was a child was shocked when a stranger truly showed her compassion. The adventure asked her for a dance and she accepted even though she was on a job and stayed in that adventurer's warm and caring arms throughout the night.
I noticed, if the artwork is of the actual characters, that it is the same duo of rogues. My roommate questioned me on this, then we checked both videos, and saw that I was right on it. Glad to see someone else noticed the fine details between lyrics and artwork.
@@JPieman The girl, Noella, is the same one as in Daybreak, but the male rogue featured in Daybreak (Zero) is not in this video. Cami usually posts info about characters and their owners in the descriptions!
I was basing my observation on the visible scars, like on his throat that you see both in Daybreak and here... But if it's not confirmed, then I apologize for seeing too much in it.
@@JPieman Oh no, no worries! Zero in Daybreak is my character so I know for sure they're not the same (he does have the throat scar, but no facial scars like the character here, good eye though! :) ). The male character in this one is Yasahiro! He and Noella are also in the Glad to Meet You video.
@@hragon3898 that's cool... That I didn't know. I am in a group that plays Pathfinder and d20 Star Wars, and occasionally some 5e. I'm trying to get some back to do more 3.5 again. I really enjoy Cami and her voice, and the small snapshots of your games. I hope you help her create more fantastic songs.
Well, time to put this on a loop while writing up campaign stuff!
Same lol.
I bet they were all casting Otto's Irresistable Dance at once.
Thought about that and one of them casted flamestride to truly get the firecracker part down
The scars are such an amazing addition. There's a whole story told just with those marks on the skin
This song compared to a firecracker is the godamn sun
I have listened to this song for like a hour and a half and I can’t stop
Heard this in the Sea Shanty Collection and I must say, having it slowed down a touch with all the instruments make is sound amazing as a standalone song. Really good work!
I like to think that the background for this song is a group of Vistani bards and their fighter friend make a distraction to protect a rogue from the guard
Love the art, love how the characters mix with one having a scarred upper body and it looks like the other had scarred lower body that alone tells it's own story lol
It's good to see that Songtubers are all one big musical family, getting help in projects just about every new song they make. Damn great songs come of it.
I love that Cami's songs not only sound amazing but also tell us a bit of a story each time as well. It's fun to follow the characters and learn a little bit about them with every song
WOOOHOOO!!!!! Another FIRE Song, good job to all of you and keep up the amazing work!
More like a firecracker song.
God I love Danarei Milos! Her design is incredible, the slight change of voice you put on when you’re singing as her makes it almost feel like she’s her own person. This was the coolest thing I’ve ever seen from the D&D side of KZhead (ironic, for a song about “firecracker” XD)
I swear I've heard this song before. I swear. This is weird, someone tell me if I'm going nuts. Edit: OH it was in the shanty collection. Knew I'd heard it before.
THANK GOD. I sooo badly wanted this on Spotify and as a single ever since the shanty collection.
This reminds me of one of my old characters. An evocation wizard/bard multiclass with the meta magic adept feat. One of her favorite party tricks involved casting create bonfire at her feet and being unaffected due to the evocation wizard’s sculpt spells feature that would allow her to auto succeed the save and take no damage as well as drag someone else to dance in the fire with her. And of course as a bard she had to have a flair for the dramatic and thus used her meta magic to have the flames burst around her with every step.
Our Teifling bard a has returned with a new FIRE to share with us at the local tavern!
I really liked this in the sea shanty collection and am glad I can easily listen to it now
This was my favorite song in the sea shanty collection, thank you for making this masterpiece
Thank you for this gem, Cami-Cat! This song actually plays into the backstory of one of my characters just before she joins my version of Peter Pan's crew when she was still a young orphan and has become a special song she and Peter share. *insert my OC & Peter doing cute big brother and little sister antics while singing this song a capella*
After all this time, the song that we never knew we wanted but always needed has arrived and it is absolutely gorgeous in every sense of the word
Everything about this is amazing! The music, the singing, the art! It’s so incredible!!!! Outstanding work Cami! Your best work yet!
I am so excited to see this finally have it's own song - One of my characters who I use frequently in rp, this long... just fits her _perfectly_
Everything here is astounding! The artwork, the music, the vocals and the editing! Everyone did an amazing job!👏
Cami, you never cease to make a song that I don't jive to. Any D&D group that is running with you is blessed to have such a talented singer, songwriter, and artist at their table. The way you interact with your fanbase is amazing, the way your voice sounds is incredible, and the way you are able to lift so many people with your voice alone is astounding. Keep doing what you are doing. Never stop being you, and have a blast doing it. Thank you for reading this, if you even get the chance to ^^
I loved this song in the Sea Shanty collection from 3 Months back, but now it’s even GREATER than before!
Indeed I replayed the shanties dozens of times just for this song
I played D&D for the first time the other day how the- Cami are you psychic?! 👀👀👀
I’m absolutely loving these DnD songs.
I LOVE all of the designs of the characters in this video! I want to know about them and their adventures and I low/high key want to see these heccin' AMAZING bards come together to form a band. In game.
My god, those backing vocals are something _else!_ Another amazing song, Cami!
I wanna make a character whos nickname is "Firecracker" now Edit: She's done. Within 24 hours of first hearing this absolute banger, I made a character whos nickname is "Firecracker".
Can I see
@@SoraWinter I suppose I could make a video or something detailing her story and design process and all that.
Yes
@@SoraWinter I’ll add it to the video ideas list then.
I had a player quote this in the finale of my campaign to the NPC girl his character was in love with as they stayed in a temple to destroy it and kill the BBEG… the party later found statues made by the explosion, and they found the 2 lovers still hugging
Honestly the part of this I adore the most is the little details like the scars on her legs and such
This feels like the perfect 4th of July song, and it ROCKS!
Whenever I see a new d&d song from you I know it’s gonna be a good day
Additional art praise: drawing people dancing, especially partner dancing, is TOUGH. Really nailed it here, you could feel the movement.
This is so cool!!!!! Everything about this is so pretty!
i've been here for less than 30 seconds but I have watched this almost 3 times ,well done!!
i'm glad to see this song done by them again!
Searched for the lyrics for years!!!
Literally got chills from the first chorus to the end. Friggin' loved it!
The absolute confidence to start your video with a close up of hands- and it's totally deserved!
I was literally just listening to your music and you drop another!
The drow playing bagpipes is hilarious, just the departure from their lore and this is just amazing.
"DoNt YoU lOoK aT mE lIkE tHaT, i'M hAvIn' Funnn" lol I love it
Absolutely mesmerizing! Your songs always help me smile after a hard day... or week... doesn't matter! Amazing work! 👏
Another beautifully done song from an amazing vocalist. Can't wait for this to hit Spotify so I can add it to my Playlist
The happy clamor in the end is absolutely the greatest cherry topper on this. 100/10, love your songs.
You my dear. You are an inspiration in and if yourself. My dog is almost out time, and it's been killing me to say goodbye, but this made me smile again and reminded me of her. Thank you Cami. Thank you
The visuals are amazing
This bardic inspiration is worth platinum and more!
This was my favorite shanty! It came out great!!
Inspiration for character development! Shy girl becomes a fierce pirate who enjoys dancing and kicking up the sparks of joy she finds while dancing
What a beautiful collab and song! Wow… definitely a top favorite. Makes me happy to play a Bard sometimes haha. Thanks for this. ^^
Everything is just so pretty,
This is really amazing! The story that you put into this song, how it has that d&d feeling in it, and even the beat and catchiness to it, it is wonderful!
I put this song on loop at work. I love it! DANCE FIRECRACKER! 🧨 🎆
I love all of Cami-Cat's D&D songs they're amazing. XD
DAMN I want to get into DND, I just can't understand it. Maybe I'll get into it someday... I'm a huge roleplayer, so DND just seemed like it would be up my alley. Hearing Firecracker just makes me want to start dancing with my buds in the middle of the night! You did so well, take my like and keep going! *distant dancing*
Alright, old me, giving you a heads up. You're a huge DnD nerd. Life gets good.
This gave me chills!!! SO GOOD!! You just earned a subscriber today and I will no go and binge all your music. Keep up the amazing work!!
Aaaaand looped. God, I love your singing Cami-cat! It's always so great and the art is too!
