Stateless Code | Mediocre Karaoke - A Kind of Magic by Queen @StatelessCode | Uploaded December 2022 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
Song: A Kind of Magic
Artist: Queen
Album: A Kind of Magic
Writer: Roger Taylor
Year: 1986
At the end of our retrospectives and other special episodes, we like to close things out by singing a song. This is the one that got it all started.
I've been a big fan of Queen since I was eleven years old, and since we were doing "magic methods" in Ruby for the Nerd Dice series, it was a good fit to pick A Kind of Magic for the inaugural mediocre karaoke song.
Be warned: I'm a professional programmer rather than a singer for a reason. Michael Duchemin and Stateless Code disclaim any and all liability for psychological trauma you may experience as a result of listening to me sing this song.
Chapters:
00:00:10 Mediocre Karaoke Introduction
00:00:40 Pre-song banter
00:01:30 A Kind of Magic performance
00:05:44 Post-song banter
