A pirate I was meant to be! (with iMUSE)

"A pirate was I meant to be" is a musical number from The Curse of Monkey Island at the beginning of Part III.

According to Jonathan Ackley, co-project leader of the game, they almost cut this part. When Michael Land brought the team the first edit, the singing was so awful they wanted to kill it. However, Michael insisted to give him a chance. Jonathan agreed but thought it would probably get cut. It turned out to be his favourite part of the game.

I have seen a lot of versions around where iMUSE is absent as ScummVM only added proper support by the end of 2021. Without it, the music cues don't transition properly. I recorded this video using the latest ScummVM which already supports iMUSE, so it should sound a lot better.

00:00 - "Thanks guys. You were world of help back there."

01:15 - "All right, crew, let's get to work."
01:37 - "No time for song! We've got to move."
02:04 - "Less singing, more sailing."
02:29 - "I'm getting sick of you guys and you're rhyming."
02:55 - "Stop! Stop! Stop!"
03:18 - "We'll surely avoid scurvy if we all eat an orange."
