Musical Tribute: I Want My MVP

Community Member Profile Picture Community Member Microsoft Employee
By Steve Endow

My colleague Andrew Dean and I have come up with a few wild ideas, mostly related to Dynamics GP development and customization.  The other day, he came up with a really, really wild idea.

I mentioned that MVP submissions were due at the end of March, so I had to finish up a few things in the next few weeks.

He said, "Why don't you make a video to the song Money for Nothing, but make it 'I Want My MVP'?"

That was one wild idea.  After I got over the surprise, I didn't know where to begin.  How does one make a music video, and how would I create the song?

With a little ingenuity, a friend who has a rock band, and some low budget guerrilla film making with my daughter, we pulled it together in 3 days.

Enjoy!




Lyrics

I want my MVP

I want my MVP

Now look at them users
That’s the way you do it
Getting help from those MVPs
That ain’t workin’ that’s the way you do it
Knowledge for nothin’ and your help for free

Now that ain’t workin’ that’s the way you do it
Lemme tell ya them users ain’t dumb
Maybe get an answer from the GP forums
Maybe get an answer from a GP blog

We gotta install all the latest patches
ERP software deliveries
We gotta move these big databases
We gotta write these SQL queries

See the busy worker with Excel and tons of numbers
Yeah buddy, no need to despair
That busy worker calls on the MVPs
That busy worker, he don’t need to care

We gotta install all the latest patches
ERP software deliveries
We gotta move these big databases
We gotta write these SQL queries

I shoulda learned to post a couple o’ questions
I shoulda learned to read some blogs
Look at that accountant, she’s got all the answers
Man accounting is so much fun
And he’s up there, what’s that? Reconciliations?
Bangin’ out reports like SQL wizardry
That ain’t workin that’s the way you do it
Get your knowledge for nothin’ get your help for free

We gotta install all the latest patches
ERP software deliveries
We gotta move these big databases
We gotta write these SQL queries

Now that ain’t workin’ that’s the way you do it
You get your help from an MVP
Now that ain’t workin’ that’s the way you do it
Knowledge for nothin’ and your help for free
Knowledge for nothin’ and help for free
