Sing: Do They Know it's Christmas (2017)

In 2017, I came up with a song-fic of the cast of SING joining together to cover the Band-Aid benefit Christmas hit, "Do They Know It's Christmas". It is inspired by the music video of the SING cast covering my favorite Paul McCartney Christmas song, "Wonderful Christmas Time", with Jimmy Fallon, the Roots, their own voice actors, and Paul McCartney himself. It's also inspired by the Muppet Bohemian Rhapsody music video and the 2009 BBC Children in Need Medley.

Originally, this was to be an all-Disney-character (excluding Star Wars and Marvel cover, because I thought 'what if Disney characters got together to help inspire us to help the world in need like Band-Aid and the BBC characters did'? I'm surprised no one else has thought of that. However, with the humongous amount of Disney characters in general and so little time to decide, I couldn't decide which ones should sing which lyrics. It would've been helpful if someone else did a character cover fic of the Band-Aid song first so I could use it as help.

However, it was less complicated with the pre-sequel SING cast, so I decided to do a version with them first.

To anyone who doesn't know, Band-Aid is a group of artists who don't ordinarily sing together but do so only to sing a song benefiting for special charity needs, like USA for Africa who sung "We Are the World". Band-Aid did four different versions of the song; and the fourth recent one in 2014 is the one that the animals of SING will be doing more, because it had more meaningful lyrics than the original.

Well, enjoy and hopefully this will inspire you to do a version of your own. I do not own the characters (except for two OCs) or song, they belong to Illumination, Universal and Band-Aid.

-

The short fic begins in the world of 'SING!', where anthropomorphic animals exist (like Robin Hood, Zootopia, etc.) and we go to Moon Theater where programs are held, and we go to an office, where a koala named Buster Moon was inside as he noticed us, and spoke to us.

"Oh, hello there. I'm Buster Moon. You all know me from last year's animated hit, 'SING'. In case you may not know, most of the cast, including yours truly, appeared in a music video covering the classic Christmas tune 'Wonderful Christmas Time' with Jimmy Fallon, the Roots, our acting teachers and even Sir Paul McCartney himself. Awesome, right? Well, we thought we would do another Christmas music video covering another classic yuletide number, and for a noble cause. You see, there are those in your world suffering from diseases, and can't manage without your help. That is why we animals are joining together, for your fun, delight and inspiration, a cover of the yuletide benefit song, "Do They Know it's Christmas" by UK charity supergroup, Band-Aid. We don't, however, have any celebrities or other characters joining in the chorus, but we hope you enjoy it all the same."

-

As the video begins, the light shines on a gorilla named Johnny, the first singer.

Johnny: It's Christmas time, and there's no need to be afraid At Christmas time, we let in light and banish shade

Next, we see a porcupine named Ash.

Ash: And in our world of plenty, we can spread a smile of joy

Even Buster himself had a part to sing.

Buster: Throw your arms around the world At Christmas time

The next ones to sing, appearing separately in the following order, an elephant named Meena, a female pig named Rosita, a male pig named Gunther and an unnamed male cat character who was not in the film but is in this.

Meena: But say a prayer and pray for the other ones

Rosita: At Christmas time, it's hard but while you're having fun

Gunther: Zhere's a world outside your window, und it's a world of dread and fear

Male cat character: Where a kiss of love can kill you, and there's death in every tear

The next part was sung by a snail named Raymond, who sat on top of the mike, while singing.

Raymond: And the Christmas bells that ring there are the clanging chimes of doom

Next, a mouse named Mike, sang a line.

Mike: Well tonight we're reaching out and touching you

We then see a split screen of Johnny and Ash on each side.

Johnny and Ash: Bring peace and joy this Christmas to West Africa

The next ones to sing separately in the following order are Meena, an elderly lizard named Ms. Crawly and Buster.

Meena: A song of hope when there's no hope tonight

Ms. Crawly: Why is comfort to be feared Why is to touch to be scared

Buster: How can they know it's Christmas time at all

Then the scene changed to showing Buster, Johnny, Ash, Rosita, Gunther, the bunny triplets and an unnamed female dog character who didn't appear in the actual film in different squares, singing together.

Group #1: Here's to you

Female dog character: Raise a glass to everyone

The scene changed to Meena, Mike, Ms. Crawly, the unnamed cat character, one of the frogs, a sheep (the one who sang "Kiss from a Rose"), Raymond, and the giraffe who sang "Ben" (though he was lowering his neck to get his head in the shot), were in different squares, singing together as well.

Group #2: Here's to them

Raymond: And all their years to come

Meena: Can they know it's Christmas time at all

Then a square with the crocodile (who rapped "Humpty" in the film) appeared, with the reptile rapping and free-styling.

Crocodile: I don't need any gifts, I'll give 'em away Ooh-ooh…Don't worry, I'll be okay I save them all for an emergency 'Cos I want everybody to be happy

Then a tech expert animal, one who was working the whole video the whole time, pressed a button to move all squares away, revealing to show all animals we saw, along with more animals(including the ones who didn't make the cut in Buster's singing competition or others who weren't in the film and just added in here) together, singing the final chorus of the song on the stage of the Moon Theater.

All: Feed the world, let them know it's Christmas time again Feed the world, let them know it's Christmas time again Heal the world, let them know it's Christmas time again Feed the world, let them know it's Christmas time again Heal the world, let them know it's Christmas time again Heal the world, let them know it's Christmas time again Feed the world, let them know it's Christmas time again Heal the world, let them know it's Christmas time again Heal the world

Then the song ended, before the scene went back to Buster alone speaking to us again. The koala smiled to the readers, "From all of us, the animals in the world of 'SING!' and the other cartoon staff at Illumination, we strongly recommend all of you to help those in need this holiday season, and have a happy general winter holiday!"

The End

--

Well, that's my short Christmas fic and first cover fic of the Band-Aid Christmas charity song. Hopefully I'll make some more in the future, provided I get help from anyone. It almost makes me think Illumination should've done this themselves.

The male cat character and female dog character are two random OC's of mine that served as an in-joke to my Bremen jukebox musical retelling idea which I dreamed of and wanted to be an actual animated film, and maybe be given the same continuity as SING and maybe have the four animals leave the human world and end up in the SING world where no humans exist.

The crocodile's rapping part is from the TV Allstars cover of the song, it is in none of the Band-Aid versions.

The revisionist history of these live action remakes needs to be studied. The amount of people who are saying the PJO movies and the M Night Shyamalan movie that shall not be named are better than the current live action shows is absurd. People immediately shut down at the prospect of changes to the plot, get mad at exposition, then get mad when they don’t pick up on story lines and characterization. Then they say that the objectively terrible cash grab movies are better than the new shows where creators obviously love the source material and want to pay homage to it. And don’t get me started on the terrible treatment both casts have received, ESPECIALLY THE CHILDREN! People need to grow up. Im not saying you have to like the shows but saying theyre worse than those movies is wild.

was fucking around on google images and i ended up stumbling on a reddit post from three yrs ago with a picture of iroh grabbing azula during a fight scene...

this is the only time i can think of when azula seems completely terrified.

he grabs her and she's scared shitless

but he just redirects her lightning and she's just bewildered.

i wonder what she was thinking there

#atla #avatar the last airbender #azula #azulaposting #iroh #like my first instinct is to read into her relationship with iroh and/or ozai #but if we're being real it could just be a ''wtf is that allowed????'' moment #iroh may have fucked up ba sing se but like. he killed a dragon #or. pretended to have #people thought he did anyway #i just think it's interesting #trope-wise azula is ''the dragon'' of the cast #and iroh is a helluva lot kinder to the real dragons than he is to her #did she think he was going to kill her? or just seriously kick the shit out of her #idk it just looks like azula was expecting something significantly worse to happen

Everyone in this dirty laundry is the perfect level of acquainted with each other where they can throw extremely specific and accurate accusations at each other and expose all kinds of unexpected secrets about one another, and you still get so much indignant shrieking as guesses are proved wrong and new information is revealed. its perfect.

OH MY GOD. I went absolutely hysterical when I was watching Hazbin Hotel and found out that JEREMY JORDAN was playing Lucifer Morningstar! Death Note Musical-nerded all over the place. If my roommate wasn’t also present, I would’ve gotten up and paced the room raving in overjoyed disbelief. I mean… HOLY HELL.

#hazbin hotel #lucifer morningstar #jeremy jordan #death note musical #I STILL can’t believe it!#we were both marveling at Lucifer’s singing during his and Charlie’s ballad #so I just casually press ��️ on my remote to check the cast and DOUBLED OVER IN SHOCK WHEN I SAW HIS NAME #and yelled ‘WELL THAT FUCKING EXPLAINS IT~!!! WHAT??? 🤩#how is this cast so damned stacked?!
