First I must apologize for the shortness. And then I got to laugh and say that:
I can totally picture this. In my mind, this song suits Xiggy. I could see him flying around singing it. But if you don't think so or whatever, I don;t mind, you just decide for yourself. As for me, I love the classics, as in U2. BEST BAND EVER besides a few thers.
Anyway, I'm going to go eat some ice cream with Sunkist... a dreamcycle float!
Ciao!

-AFTERSHOW-
bloopers, extra songs, and chaos all around.
Sponsored by Hayner-Pence-Olette Studios and Sitarisements.

"Is it time to do the 3rd blooper yet?" Hayner called down from the sound studio.
"If by 'blooper' you mean 'a singing judge', then yes! It is!" Olette hollered back.
Hollered back. Holla Back. Whoops, haha.
Ahem.
Anyway, it was Xigbar's chance to sing and he seemed really pumped about it.
Roxas's wasn't.
"Pence, I'm telling you, this will end badly …" he was insisting.
"We let you sing, didn't we? And you're the show host; it's only fair that Xigbar can, too." Olette reminded him.
"But, but … he's XIGBAR. He flies around on the ceiling and SHOOTS THINGS. Do you really, seriously think this wise?!" the blonde retorted, staring into her green eyes.
"Um, well…" but Olette was at a loss for words.
But that was fine, because pretty soon Hayner was playing music, and Xigbar comes flying out from the side of the stage … on the ceiling.
He had a headset on, the mic just inches from his mouth, his ponytail drooping down next to his right ear. He was dressed in jeans and a t-shirt, completely relaxed-looking.
And in came the lyrics:
"High, higher than the sun
You shoot me from a gun
I need you to elevate me here
A corner of your lips
Is the orbit of your hips
Eclipse
You elevate my soul
I've got no self control
Been living like a mole now
Going down, excavation
Higher now, in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high
Elevation
A star
Lit up like a cigar
Strung out like a guitar
Maybe you can educate my mind
Explain all these controls
Can't sing but I've got soul
The goal is elevation
A mole
Digging in a hole
Digging up my soul now
Going down, excavation
Higher now
In the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high
Elevation
Love
Lift me out of these blues
Won't you tell me something true
I believe in you
A mole
Digging in a hole
Digging up my soul now
Going down, excavation
Higher now
In the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high
Elevation
Elevation…
Elevation…
Elevation…
Elevation!"
We all began clapping as soon as the music died down, because he actually sang it pretty well. Not totally awesome or mind-blowing, but well.
"Xiggy, Xiggy! YOU WERE ROCKIN'! Seriously." Demyx squealed, jumping up and down.
"As if … you're just saying that." He smiled crookedly.
"No, man, he has a point; you were pretty good." Roxas admits. "Though the ceiling cartwheels were a little much," he added under his breath.
"Hey, now that I sang a little something, What's next?" Xigbar asked.
"Oh, well, that would be me! And then Zexy. With me. Because Zexy needs to sing s happier song…" Demyx danced, obviously hyped up.
"Cool," shrugged Number II.
"You know, this part of the after show is just about over…" I added, quickly realizing this.
"Really? Felt short." Hayner called down.
"Yeah, it was short! Pence, why can't you make it longer?!" Demyx begged me.
"Um, 'cause they're not much else to do –"
"Yes there is! Hey Xigbar, I've always wondered …" Roxas began, an evil grin on his face, "What's under your eye patch?"
"What, this old thing?" Xigbar asked, pointing to his right eye. "Aw, it's nothing really. Wanna see?"
Olette got this weird look in her eye, and I was genuinely curious. At the same time she and I go: "Yeah, yeah! What's under there?"
"Oh, well, it's just this…" he said, lifting up the black fabric.
"AHHH!"
"OH MY GAWD!"
"WTF?!"
"COOOOL!!"
