Music From Courage the Cowardly Dog (Dr. Zalost)

[WebCamCartmell]

The best show. Ever.

[ZeldafanNr2]

This was one of the creepiest tv-show i saw when i was little

[Kari166]

EPIC.

[aciwilson]

IISO SIM DA MEDO



[musicofEagle]

the producer is fucking head like me ... GREAT!

[mecastix2]

epic

[vilmkd]

Someone should play this music when the world ends.

[RioEllington]

Holy fuck, this music.

[rafael502]

This show is TOO DAMN DARK

[Luixmai]

@rafael502

That is why it was so epic. I love that cartoons which look like for children but they are not xD

[16Nire61]

@Luixmai Oh, this show's for children - it's just that only the braver ones would usually stick around. Or, as TVTropes would put it: "What Do You Mean, It's For Kids?"

[Kronimiciad]

@rafael502 Sometimes I prefer the darker ones to the other modern shows. Actually, there is almost no modern cartoon that I prefer over this one. It may be dark, but that's what gives it a special quality.

[Bloodrun069]

Zalost: I think you got him. now lets go in and hug again

Rat: uggghh!

[hawkboy1792]

Pizza? What pizza? Get away from me! lol

[TKGoat]

Rat! The top comments are the same!...give me a hug ._.

[uliko44]

i cried at this episode

[trajackson111]

Why did this show end.....

[mrshanegt]

@trajackson111 Its coming back on next year

[mrfivegold]

@mrshanegt Where did you hear that from?

[mrshanegt]

@mrfivegold It was a message that was on cartoon network .com And it said it might have some new episodes in 2012

[mrfivegold]

@mrshanegt I thought John R. Dilworth retired.

[mrshanegt]

@mrfivegold Well,Its a rumor that might be true

[mrfivegold]

@mrshanegt I doubt it, the show had its runs and its unlikely they'd resurrect it after this much time. Nine years its been off the air I doubt its coming back. Production has this euthianism if it takes more than 3 years to continue or bring back a show... it ain't going to happen.

[mrshanegt]

@mrfivegold Well Hey look at beavis and butt-head They Have been off air for about 14 Years! They are back on now

[mrfivegold]

@mrshanegt They made periodical appearances in media during that time continuing their exposure, during those 14 years they had over fifty media appearances since the series ended the first time. It was due to that exposure they got back on, what exposure has Courage had since the series ended?

[mrshanegt]

@mrfivegold Well yes i guess it will not be on any more

[mrfivegold]

@mrshanegt It can be inspiration for you to create you own animated series.

[Mincho1994]

I actually feel pity for the upcoming generation who will never get to experience the old Cartoon Network. Especially the more epic cartoons ( Courage included, of course) All the shit cartoons today don't even deserve to be compared to the masterpieces of the past.

[TheLambdaTeam]

Well guys, if I can get a little assist from a musician here, I might try to rebuild the entire soundtrack from scratch...

PM me if anyone is talented and interested enough.

[WamblyWallaby]

"NEVERMORE"

[TuLegitify]

Such a dark, sad, depressing show. Yet at the same time, brilliant in many aspects and still somehow capable of giving its young viewing audience fond memories. Genius.

[depthruins2k39]

Epic...

[Kronimiciad]

A great triumph of music, if unintentional!

[EliteROFLER]

What's the theme when dr zalost's tower gets destroyed and happy cannonballs makes the city happy again?

[Acelif]

He must be immune to emotions!

[zarenlug20]

this chapter was the best

[BluncheonMeat]

Ominous bassoon is ominous.

[devilwings1989]

ONE OF MOST EPIC EPISODES ON THIS SHOW!!!

[xXxCelticsPridexXx]

yo guys remember freaky fred la la la la la lol

[bolivaskurac]

Amazing! Zalost (with letter Ž instead of Z actually) is a Serbian word for sorrow. That's nice.

[brutaka359]

@bolivaskurac it is also a Croatian word :)

[RyouuichiKun15]

@brutaka359

which is also a Russian word :)

[simsxsims]

@bolivaskurac yeah :D nmg da verujem :)

[Calvinl08]

This episode is funny XDD i guess now 12 people did not get there hug from rat XDDD

[foof811]

Reminds me of Fable. Beautiful T_T.

[ZekeWarhammer]

"Come here rat...give me a hug.."

[uberpubert69]

@ZekeWarhammer You call that a hug? You aren't even trying. Get away from me!

[ZekeWarhammer]

@uberpubert69 ...*SIGH*

[TheGlobalPanacea]

This music has always reminded me of the Final Fantasy series of video games for some reason.

[tectonicrobot]

This song is freaking awesome...

[darkblade991]

i just realized that zalost means sadness form where i come from...

MIND = BLOWN

[simsxsims]

@darkblade991

From Serbia :D

[darkblade991]

@simsxsims from slovenia :)

[simsxsims]

@darkblade991 both languages :P

[darkblade991]

@simsxsims  :D

[SaphirreTears]

@MistofoleesMagister D;..I know right<_< The hug was so cute...This show was(is) the best:(...They so need to Air it back on Cartoon Newtwork with New episodes or something:)

[TheSorrowfulSoul1]

I loved this track it made me cry every time he was trying to hug Rat...T-T beautifully done...

[TheEdge0fLife]

"Why didn't you take the stairs , its much easier."

[hnrksl]

Dr.Zalost: Raaaaat! Give me a hug!

Rat: guaahhhh..

[FlitkoSLO]

Can anyone tell me where I can find the music that is played when Eustace is randomly attacked by a giant squirrel in that burglar episode?

[scarywinkoproductios]

the new cartoons suck!

I want courage back ):

[sellbotvpmaster99]

happy plumz

[mohairborne95]

This was my favorite cartoon ever!

Might as well watch some know...

[MoBrosStudios]

Freaking amazing. Favorite track from the show.

[Shpooptypants13]

Rat... Rat, come here and give me a hug Rat...

[xservintage]

Really nice. I love this score. So tragic and yet so threatening.

[XxMUSICJESTERxX]

omg this shit is fucking made to be a boss song in Final fantasy

[R0wboyz]

@XxMUSICJESTERxX not anymore it isn't....more of a Kingdom Hearts level to it. Final Fantasy is more pumped up now.

[death2violence]

whos the artist to this song?

[BlueLightningNaito]

The Tower Of Dr. Szayel.

[Trudermark]

@0ncem0re It does sound like it's from Kingdom Hearts. LOL

[iamfreeize]

If this had been the original score in a movie...it would have won the Academy award!

[horo30]

Yeah this song was badass.

Nigga wanted to make everyone feel like shit in the world, amazing episode.

[DStroyU]

a very cool synthesized work

[SnakeOilSalesman]

This show had such a distinct, dark, soundtrack. Even if it did have its flaws, it was one of the most unique shows that cartoon network was able to offer at the time.

[TheHappyLittleKitten]

11 people didn't like Muriel's Happy Plums.

[CGPig]

I actually would like a soundtrack album with all of Courage's music, like the ukelele song for example.

[crazitaco]

11 people didnt get a hug from Rat

[psycho3991]

this is the best soundtrack to any cartoon ever

[Besateswarrior]

A new level of epicness

[ilovevores]

anybody got the mp3? i DESPERATELY need it!!!!!

[TheTimesofGrace]

@ilovevores online video converter..com

[Killgore83]

"Tower of Dr Zalost" is probably the darkest episode of the series.

[mrmudzahedini]

@Killgore83 and one of the best.

[leah9712]

@Killgore83 You're right. When I was a children, this episode was the most scared me... But now it's my favorite episode of the serie and I love this OST.

[deathshadow2492]

@Killgore83 Also one of the greatest episodes of the ENTIRE show. One of the strongest points of this show are the characters (possibly including the main ones) because there are so many of them (with the exceptions of the characters that try to kill any of the main ones and Dr. Gerbil) that you just feel sorry for (Primary Examples: Dr. Zalost, The Snowman, The Space Squid Mother, and others who you feel sorry for.)! R.I.P. Courage The Cowardly Dog Show! D,:

[Nensak]

@deathshadow2492 yea right and dude not RIP the show is gonna live in out hearts!!! until our death!

[deathshadow2492]

@Nensak I know that but it's still sad that the next generation will never understand our love for this show. ),:

[ANightSkye]

@Killgore83

perfection is pretty good too.

[DarkStormErx]

By the way, I don't think this is the full version, at the end of Zalost when he appeared at the house, this song was playing but slower and with a piano in the background, nobody has yet to upload that part.

[xxxprometheusxxxx]

@DarkStormErx Yeah Ive been looking everywhere the past 30 minutes and no one has made an upload of that part, it's just as good if not better!

[fukinblade]

Incredible to see how a child's cartoon has so impresive music, full of feeling, great composition, great instrumentation, a master piece

And yeah i watched courage the cowardly dog, and It's fucking awesome D: .. I miss it

[realofficialuzumaki]

@fukinblade i saw the weremole episode yesterday

[Gatorguy006]

In my opinion, the best music in a children's cartoon was in Courage the Cowardly Dog.

[DeadSpaceAddict]

11 people didnt get a hug :(

[i3xxxhot]

Not many comedic kids cartoons have music this powerful...

[DarkStormErx]

@i3xxxhot Courage was a Dark Comedy-horror, that alone won't make for cartoons in today's youth, much less the music, sad. I am lucky that not only was I raised with good tv but good music too.

[riceballz]

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[ry33412]

great song, love it

[aaabbbcccfgh]

one of the most epic songs in courage the cowardly dog

[captainkayleeinc]

This is one of the craziest songs from Courage the Cowardly Dog!

So awesome!

[BlueThaBrain]

It was the Music that got me, so suspenseful & climactic ! Great stuff

[sonicusr]

the rat and feel of hopelessness got me all teary eyed

[RoastingPotPieMonkey]

what episode is this? i dont' think i've seen this one, although i love courage the cowardly dog [;

[aLaMode298]

@RoastingPotPieMonkey It's called The Tower of Dr. Zalost. It's generally considered one of the best episodes of the series. ^^

[LordIronHat]

Best episode of any TV show I have seen in a very long time. Best music I have ever heard in a comedy-oriented cartoon.

[Backmask344]

This episode was almost as sad as the space squid episode.

[Kronimiciad]

Does anyone know the first note sequence?

[MrOmeMan]

The music is what made this episode stick to me... I swear to God.

[Kronimiciad]

I love this. Does anyone know the cymbal line that doesn't sound like its being struck?

[Kronimiciad]

I love this.

[Strife7734]

This is probably my favorite episode

[Onerom4728]

this is the 2012 theme

[IronianKnight]

This was in a cartoon. A CARTOON had music that could've fit in SHADOW OF THE COLOSSUS. This is just one example of many explaining why Courage the Cowardly dog is one of the best shows out there.

[ImperialGuard9001]

Courage was better than Biebers and Hannah Montanas Teen Dramas that kids get nowsdays being kid nowsdays completly sucks I wonder what type of persons we were creating

[ahhgirl67]

Courage must have had an incredible budget, it seems all the music was produced by them.

[supersonicmario56]

11 people never got a hug

[nightmareaja]

that episode was so sad :(

[SnakeBigBoss24]

@xtcscenebz Yepp : | sorry for the late reply lol.

[Aelfredus26]

Eargasm.

[999Burek666]

"Zalost" means sadness on my lenguage! Pretty as same :P

[archangelmist]

@999Burek666

I meni se jede burek...

[TheMsSplashley]

what the song to the outer space chickens?!

[apudabul]

beautiful beautiful stuff

[NeroAnxiety68]

Oh, love this song.

[TheDudeguy33]

If you have GMOD, download the map gm_courage (day or night) from the toybox, go up to the attic where courages room is, and hit E on the sign "Modest is Wimpy" just before entering his room, its above the door-sil-thing. And this song plays.

[DarklordofDOOM57]

@darkphoenixdragon138 also in Slovenian

[darkphoenixdragon138]

did you know that zalost in Croatian means sadness

[babysinclairfan]

@darkphoenixdragon138 i think he's serbian

[darkphoenixdragon138]

@babysinclairfan Who?

[babysinclairfan]

@darkphoenixdragon138 dr. zalost

[KenpachiQ8y]

I was hoping they got sad all the time coz of this amazing song!

[cukyPR1]

Rat give me a hug...

[11spike7]

10 people need a hug from Rat.

[SaphirreTears]

Did this Episode Make anyone else cry too O.o..or was that just me...Lol

Yeah...Well...This defiently was a Top Fav Ep.:D

Poor Rat -__-

[larvutza]

@SaphirreTears I cried too.Dunno why

[FullMetalSatomi]

@SaphirreTears Ohhh me too. :/ Some of the episodes were really sad. >__<! The flashback to Courage's past episode too!

[machogrubba14]

@FullMetalSatomi When I was like 5 this show was really fun. It rocked!!! I remember the episode the last of the starmakers was really sad! And the courage rememberance ep. was really sad too. This show rocked!! WHY DID IT HAVE TO GO???!!! T-T

[FullMetalSatomi]

@machogrubba14 Exactly! They don't make cartoons like they used to, unfortunately. :/

[horo30]

@machogrubba14 Because the current world doesnt believe in small dogs or young people protecting their families.

Lol.

[machogrubba14]

@horo30 Now wat they care about is teenage girls getting chosin to dance in a TV show or a chick thats a pop star in disguise. I may be 14 but if they made more episodes of this show I would actually watch cartoon network. but giving yourself false hope will only poison your soul. T-T

[WamblyWallaby]

@machogrubba14 Hey they are actually getting some cool cartoons on Cartoon Network now. Sure, they might not be like Courage the Cowardly Dog... but shows like Adventure Time & Regular Show have emerged on the channel.

[machogrubba14]

@WamblyWallaby I heard adventure time is really fun!! I would watch it but my parents wanted to pay less for TV so they took out all the kids channells. COUGH*CHEAP*COUGH

But yah, nothing can replace this wonderful show. :P

[SaphirreTears]

@FullMetalSatomi : I know right:D...This show saw so...Intense for something that was supposed to be for little kids and such O.O lol

Sigh..I miss this show T^T

[glidershower]

@SaphirreTears I feel some tears creeping up my eyes. Sentimental episode...

[beta1756]

@SaphirreTears i cried :'(

[lartencrepsley17]

@SaphirreTears I do believe I cried. <3

[blaby4ever]

@SaphirreTears i agree. this show made me cry when i was around 7 years old for some reason. i should be named zalost lol

[funny254]

Lol every time i see this episode i always want her damn happy plums- courage makes them look sooo damn good.

[CMBeast09]

Only if all games of Hangman was this epic....well aside from the bombs and cannonballs.

[MrTaba]

wow, I looked for this song a few years ago and gave up on it. Great find!

[boethiah12]

great song.

[orobusimpoloderius]

@boethiah12 I agree.

[NinjaRaVenX]

where the hell did you get this??

[ALittleBlueBird]

This song brings back so many odd memories of Courage the Cowardly Dog. From the time Eustace got that weird purple foot fungus... thing, to the time those humans turned into puppets and they were hanging from the ceiling. This song just strengthens my resolve to re-watch the show

[kingcainjr]

I FUCKING LOVE THIS SONG i found out the rhythm part on piano :D

[warlordkoffe1andonly]

@kingcainjr can you upload it? would be lovely to see/Hear :3

[RabbitHole20]

I always figure with soldiers firing cannons.

[plolde]

any one know the song that muriel plays on her instrument?

[DamianGarcia92]

They should make a Courage movie!!

[Zeldaprincess]

@DamianGarcia92 SO. MUCH. WORD.

[gothgospel]

sounds like a prelude to a cradle of filth song

[roboguy75]

regarded as one of the best episodes of the show

[Doodorz]

This song made me cry ROFL

it's so damn depressing.

[FatedApocolypse]

now y cant i find a good katz theme like this?

[JustAnotherSonicFan]

Good times...

[Yoshoogieboogie]

@JustAnotherSonicFan

i found tht quite subtly hilarious xD

[Winduct]

Courage the Cowardly Dog is the best TV show of all time.

[MaximumRideFan509]

'Where ma chair' lol

[SorcererLance]

this totally sounds similar to "sieji no chikara" from Shin Hokuto no Ken/New Fist of the North Star

[DanHibikiX]

I wish you had teh piano version, I find it better. :P

[SarItachi79]

This song just made me cry...

[ShadowFox909]

@SarItachi79 Just as Dr.Zalost planned

[SarItachi79]

@ShadowFox909 Wow...he thought WAY ahead...like, 10 years before I cried...what a genius...o.o XD

[SarItachi79]

LMAO, "stupid dog"XD

[alan98011]

omg i miss this show so much now stupid cartoon network has reality show shit like tower prep... i miss the old cartoon network... now its all garbage

The funny thing is that after that chicken got with a happy canno
