NetBeans is so cool that people sing love songs!

I perfectly understand what the song is about…

It hurts my ears.

that is just beyond stupid… he must be REALLY lonely. :o

Can we expect a song about Eclipse next? ;D

I apologize for hurting somebody’s ears. No, I’m not lonely, it was rather a practical joke. My blog is full of these and some people find them funny (well some don’t). Anyway I can definitely create a song about Eclipse. How about changing a bit the text of Total Eclipse of the Heart? It could go like…

Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there’s only work in the dark
NetBeans far away
A total eclipse of the heart

::slight_smile: ROFL ;D

* zero likes the song :slight_smile:

Roumen is here in the javagaming corner! Welcome! Good to know that!

All existing Java3D NIO-based-multiplayer WW1 flightsims that are sourceforge projects today are developed with NetBeans!

Nice! :slight_smile:

Then after that a song about IntelliJ IDEA? ;D Just need to find a song about an idea…

I can perfectly imagine that people sing songs about IDEA as well. It is sympathic and it ‘feels’ good. You can feel that the developers love what they do (as with NetBeans).

For Eclipse, an IDE pressed into market by a huge company with loads of money and marketing, with a propreitary GUI, with many many developers sitting in their cubes beneath cold neon lights … no wonder nobody wants to sing.

Its like … singing about Emacs, vi, TeX, … possible.
About MSWord? No way.

Well I’ve found a few songs which contain the word “idea” but none of them is really famous. If you know a famous song with “idea” let me know and I’m sure to come up with some good alternative text :slight_smile:

It’s no joking matter

No song about Tex, so there’s an opportunity there for someone. Lots of singers called
Tex though.
