The Elements song!

[Dante]

Ok, this is really something of a whim on my part that I thought I'd share with you. Some of you may have seen/heard this before, but hey, it's always nice to hear it again.

The Elements song!

EDIT: I've got broadband so I don't know how slower connections will deal with this, but there is a Dialup option.

[Dunenewt]

Hehe my friend knows it by heart.

[EWS]

It is such an amazing song, currently searching for the mp3 file!

[nemafakei]

Ah, I remember that! I've been latently wondering where to get a copy for some time.

Update: Well, I liked it so much I recorded it internally.[attachment archived by Gobalopper]

[Khan]

Sheer brilliance... ;D

[Andrew]

By recording internally, do you mean that you recorded that Nema?

Very good. Too bad I'm not in any sciences. ;)

[Kyle]

my chemistry teacher played this the other day...lol 8)

[Tezcatlipoca]

Pretty nifty. Of course... it's outdated (as noted by the list at the end of the flash) but was also wrong to begin with :(

(Gold, Silver, Mercury, and Lead arn't in the table as those names. They arn't the "real" names, by technical standards, for those elements. Those are the only ones I caught though)

[Dante]

According to all the tables I have they are. Their symbols are different, since they're from the Greek or latin, but their full names are still gold, etc. Symbol for gold is Au from 'Aurum' and mercury is Hg from 'Hydragyrum' etc. Is that what you're refering to?

Oh shut up. Hey Khan, you remember this from Berry's class right!? OMG that was jokes... ROLF the crocodile clips... ;D

[Terror]

ehm... i thought the song was pretty anti cool :)

[nemafakei]

When I say recorded internally, I mean I played the web page and had my computer record from what was going to the soundcard (as opposed to externally: playing it through the speakers and pulling it back in through a microphone).

"(Gold, Silver, Mercury, and Lead arn't in the table as those names. They arn't the "real" names, by technical standards, for those elements. Those are the only ones I caught though)"

I'm sorry, but I've never heard anyone use the words Aurum, Argentum, Hydrogyrum, or Plumbum except when specifically talking in or about Latin. I think there are a few exceptions: I believe tungsten (W) is sometimes called wolfram. Of course, there are also alternate names not used for the tables: brimstone for sulphur and quicksilver for mercury.

[Vanguard3000]

Nema, the original names are used sometimes when referring to acids and bases, and some compounds, using -ic/-ous valence notation.  A compound containing copper could be described as "cupric", or with lead, "plumbous".

My chemistry teacher never showed us that song in music form (he gave us the lyrics on paper, though).  Instead, we listened to pretty much everyting by "MC Hawking".  Including Quake Master.  I don't know why.

[nemafakei]

Yes, they're used to form some adjectives, but the classical names are not used for the elements themselves. That said, both ferric and ironic are real words... hehe.

[TMA_1]

good grief nema and vanguard...lol ;)

[Inoculator9]

Brilliant stuff :D

Ah yes, those were the days...

[Super-ness]

i dont learn anything in CHemistry as he shows us that damn video every week

*me pokes Khan with fork*

[Khan]

Yeah, but one day you'll look back and see that Berry, Tucker and Lomas are the best teachers EVER, and all that jazz.
