Conlang music

Hi all!

What music do you know of whose lyrics are in a conlang?

Have any of you created such?

I ask partially out of simple curiosity, but also partially by
request; Swandive Films' conlang-themed movie is nearing completion
(it's in post-production, with filming and first pass editing
complete), and they are interested in conlangy music to use in the
film.

(FWIW, we're also interested in using such music for the LCS podcast.)

Thanks,
Sai

There's the Lojban Anthem, obviously:

--And.

Don't listen to the version sung by a robot! That'll scar you like a visual
of gnudo.

mu'o mi'e cmacis

There's also a very good recording floating around of the Esperanto
version of the Internationale.

mu'o mi'e .kreig.daniyl.

I've found two:

http://folk.ntnu.no/makarov/temporary_url_20070929kldcg/internationale-eo-noacc-2006.mp3
(single voice a capella)
http://songoftheweek.info/music/weekly/00xx/0063/REMASTERED%20TRACKS%20ROCKMAN%20ZERO%20Physis%20-%20Esperanto.mp3
- techno remix O.o?

Is there a different one you mean?

There is a lot of Esperanto music with lyrics at:

http://www.musicexpress.com.br/sercxo.asp

I an not sure if ALL the lyrics at this site is en Esperanto,
but there are definitely very much of it.

If you are interested in other conlangs, there is a Russian
(or rather Litovian ("softo" is the right word!)) punk group
"pichismo", which sings in the many different conlangs, but
all their lyrics is... punk. If you don't like rhymes like
"feki" and "fiki", it is probably not for you.

A lot of people have written original Klingon songs and poems. I have.
Be careful though: some of us are protective of our copyrights!

I once wrote a Klingon poem in iambic pentameter as part of a qep'a'
qaDHom (an informal challenge at a conference). I've got it floating
around somewhere; I should upload it to my website. I also wrote one in
alliterative verse: http://www.trimboli.name/klingon/ghuHmoHQoQ.html

I have not set either to music. KLINGON FOR THE GALACTIC TRAVELER (ISBN
978-0671009953) has a lot of information on Klingon music, including the
fact that it's usually in a nonatonic scale:
