"This Wiki's Not the Same Without You" is a one-hit wonder song, written by an obscure band called Greasy Spoon. The single was released nationwide in February 8, 2009 - though nobody got the point of the single because of the word "wiki", but they realized it would soon become a classic. Because it was the debut single of Greasy Spoon, they made a rave of public cheers throughout Antarctica & UnitedTerra. Soon the song reached number 1 in all countries. The single was produced and written by Greasy Spoon themselves too, while being released on Club Penguin Music Records. It also had a music video which was focused on equally as the song. By early 2010, the RIAAC and the Penguin Official Music Charts confirmed the single to be the best-selling single worldwide. As of 2011 it has sold over 56 million units all over Antarctica and UnitedTerra.

According to the wiki's view, it was "dedicated to all of the awesome users who left... and Triskelle"

Background

Greasy Spoon were signed to Club Penguin Music Records in August 2008, but remained inactive until early December when they were asked to write a song. The three members of the group got to work. First of all, they wanted to make an impact on all the music lovers. No other information was reported on the song-writing, but one report said that one of the member's of Greasy Spoon thought of the word "wiki" (but the users know that it relates to the CPFW Universe). They recorded from December 17-18, and thought of it to be a complete hit. They decided to do a radio edit of the original version they done. The following month they announced their debut, revealing the plain black and white cover and the track list. Promotion for the single increased rapidly throughout the month. The single gained many positive reviews too.

The album version lasts 5 minutes and 16 seconds. The first 40 seconds is the intro, then the verses come. The outro lasts 50 seconds. The radio edit is 3 minutes and 58 seconds - the intro is 20 seconds, then verses, then the outro which is 30 seconds. The bridge is also cut a bit short.

Lyrics

The melody is here.

This text, is still text, no matter what you know...
The Sidebar, is the Sidebar; or so we say...
And [[links]], should be [[links]], formatting says so...
And bytes, are still bytes, in a way.

Yet this site is not a home, this address I do not know!
I would trade my username,
If you come back and stay;

This Wiki's not the same, without you!
Recent changes, are so few...
Without you...
