Starship Trooper
"(I Lost My Heart to A) Starship Trooper", is a 1978 single written by Jeff Calvert and Max West of Typically Tropical and performed by Sarah Brightman and Hot Gossip. It is notable as the debut of the then teenage Brightman as a singer, and reached number six in the UK Singles Chart. The song is a lightweight space disco track that cashed in on the media hype surrounding the original Star Wars film: the lyrics include the lines "And evil Darth Vader has been banished to Mars" and "Or are you like a droid, devoid of emotion". The song also samples music from Star Wars, Thus Spoke Zarathustra (from 2001: A Space Odyssey), and the "spaceship communication" melody from Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Many of the lyrics contain mild sexual innuendo; for example, "Take me, make me feel the force". Other television and film science fiction references are "Flash Gordon's left me, he's gone to the stars", "What my body needs is close encounter three", and "Fighting for the Federation" and "Static on the comm - it's Starfleet Command". The song was performed on The Kenny Everett Video Show by its regular dance troupe Hot Gossip. Its lead, Sarah Brightman, was dressed in a silver catsuit and platform shoes.
The Urban Dictionary Mug
Very basic mug but does the trick!
The mug is a gift for our Fantasy Football league winner…or loser. I'm not sure yet; it's a bit of a spoof that will be disclosed on Thanksgiving.
This will be the perfect gift this winter! It even came in a nice little box. The mug seems to be of good quality. It was a bit pricy, got to be honest, but it’ll be very well received.
Would have like the entire cup with purple color. Not just the part with the slogan. It's a nice cup!
It was fantastic very good quality.
The printing, the Word and it's definition -- were not quite what I expected. And the same word definition ordered on two different mugs, and yet each was described / defined differently.
This was easy to order although I wish the preview pics showed the next on both sides once you finish customizing. But I appreciated that if the text doesn't fit they email you and ask what you want it to say. Came out great and I can't wait to give it as a gift
Sent to a friend. He loved it!
Well printed, the mug's ceramic is of good quality, I'm not sure what else I can add. I am surprised it could be printed and shipped so quickly based on my earlier experience printing/kiln-firing/baking this kind of product. Well done.
Funny cup that my girl absolutely loved!
my partner thought it was very silly
I’m excited to have gotten it. I’m going to give it to a man at my church that volunteers this time and won’t stop working! So the inscription is perfect for him.
Easy to order and customize. Very tough, solid, and well-made. Nice and hefty in the hand.
Looked great and delivered fast.
urban dictionary is my personal lifeline to the divine, thank you for selling me a $35 coffee cup that I gave to friend, bought another and gave that another friend. Likely asking, rather in need of, a six or more discount code, for six or more gifts to friends! Xoxo
Perfect way to start my day!
The mug looks great and hasn't faded after multiple runs through the dishwasher. It microwaves well, and the text is sufficiently unruly.
The mug arrived very packed and on time. I love how well crafted the coffee mug is. I plan on ordering other merch from URBAN Dictionary soon. Thanks.
fantastic, personal gift to share with anyone!
Exactly as I ordered it. Shipping was perfect, got updates, accurate date of delivery, and no damage. This is a gift for my little brother.
