Hapori Tohu Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Ever since LEGO Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu Season Three ("Rebooted"), each new season of the TV series has come with a new remix of the theme song "The Weekend Whip".

Gatanui Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 (edited) This song is kind of weird for several reasons: 1. It's the fourth remix of the same song that's five years old. 2. I never really understood how the lyrics related in any way to the story. 3. It's kind of weird how some of the remixes replace "weekend" from the original title "The Weekend Whip" with something else, creating totally nonsensical titles like "The Pirate Whip". What is a pirate whip? What was the "weekend whip" anyway? Anyway, just some random observations.

fishers64 Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 I always thought that the Ninjago show used to air on the weekend, and "whip" was an alliterative term for spin, as in Spinjitzu.

What is a pirate whip? What was the "weekend whip" anyway? Anyway, just some random observations. I think the lyrics are mostly supposed to be a youth anthem of sorts, about the weekends being an escape from the monotony of a boring weekday existence and a chance to do cooler and more exciting things, like, say, cool ninja moves. As such it has more to do with the show's attitude than with its actual plot. As for what a "weekend whip" is supposed to be? It's when you jump up, kick back, whip around, and spin! And then you jump up, do it again! Whereas a "pirate whip" is the same thing, but more pirate-y.
