You probably only know that Neil Armstrong was the first man to walk on the moon. Did you know that his two missions in space; Gemini 8 and Apollo 11, each had a logo? Have I tickled something inside of you? Or maybe I’ll just let this sequel, which continues the remainder of the song by Welshy Arms tell you more about the character of the extra-legendary.
“This is what we came for.
And we couldn’t want it anymore
We could never turn back now
Got to leave it all on the floor
Been dreaming of the payoff
Through the struggles and the trade-offs, fighting tooth and nail on the way up. Tell them the truth but they think it’s just made up. And I think they got it all wrong, we just gotta hold on
And on, and on, and on…”
(The US Marine Corp have a revered and emblazoned tagline that’s still in use 103 years after. “Retreat? Hell! We just got here” attributed to Capt. Lloyd Williams, suffices to summarize the lyrics of the stanza above. Legends don’t retreat on cause.
Chorus:
‘Cause we’re gonna be legends
Gonna get their attention
What we’re doing here ain’t just scary
It’s about to be legendary
Yeah, we’re gonna be legends
Gonna teach ’em all a lesson
Got this feeling in our souls we carry
It’s about to be legendary
Bridge:
Eventually they’re gonna know who’s right. To make a stand, you’ve got to win the fight. Can’t stand the heat then just stay out the light. For you might never make it out alive. You gotta live without a compromise. Let everybody hear your battle cry.
** Rock Guitar Slams Hard **
(No graphics designer, nobody for that matter ever described a logo as a “symbol of success”. I discovered it, postulated it and actually adapted what the practice of para-psychology believes depicts success into my logo. Nobody ever attributed the concept of success as a business outcome that stems from creative work. Now I see graphics designers use the word success in their presentations. Find the Legend in you. Make your own Logo or have it emblazoned. And don’t think for one moment it is the mere outcome of design.
