Awesome Video Game Music Tracks 15: Gangplank Galleon

[UnivingIshiro]

F*cking fake kredits made me loose and start all over again the first time I played it...

[erickuehn22]

Either King K. Rool's contacts are bugging him, or he is high as holy hell.

[Darklegobrick13]

Sound way to happy............ oh wait, damn.

[MetaKnighttime]

The first time I heard the begining of the song I was like: A discrace for a boss theme. When I heard the whole thing I came out of the song ready to pass out from amazment.

[bowserandluigiteam2]

I demand to fight it with all my DK nostalgia!

3...

2...

1...

You're going down K.Rool!

[Kiirlu]

FAAAAAATTT D:

[killou74]

*fake credits* FUCK YEAH ! WIII- fuck...

[OmegaX74]

BEHOLD!! FAKE CREDiTS!

[DragonEXecuTionER]

I'm tryin to play the bass on tuba.....THE TOUNGING IS F'ING DIFFICULT! X0

[rummythedummy2]

Ahhhh the good ol days.....

[SilverFanatic1]

Someone help me fix my F5 key.

[pigeonmaster77]

0:00 - 1:50 Best part of the song

1:51 Here it starts to suck

[SNESguy1992]

I beat this after 10 years. And it was WORTH IT!

[AnonymousProffession]

I like the part where it's amazing

[DarkdracoZ]

Rest in peace...the golden years of Rare, how did you dare Microsoft?

[Scotty2331]

its nice to bop ur head to

[Jbleede]

Sweet memories...

[ElvisLynx]

Sweet childhood...

[GlitchManAlpha]

I do hope accordian hero comes out. Then we can all play the kinda slow part at the beginning and all the non-DKC players will rage quit at how awesome it is.

[Imaytper]

that f*cking eye creeps me out

[McZerg620]

terrible sound quality

[XXAndSomeSkittlesXX]

@McZerg620 I BEG TO DIFFER!

[runetimon]

@McZerg620 lol, this is 8 bit sound ya know, it is supposed to be like this

[olivierfromricochet]

@runetimon 16 bit.

[GabrielAfBarberio]

@McZerg620

The game is old, really old. If I'm not wrong, it is a SNES classic, which became so famous that had 2 sequels (Not as good, though).

Even so, no, I don't think the audio quality is bad, it is the very same as in the game when I played, if not better.

[PrrrromotionGiven]

@McZerg620 Welcome to the amazing world of the nineties.

[Aerokii]

I would routinely play the final battle of DKC just to listen to this music...

...and kick some Kremling ass.

[XXAndSomeSkittlesXX]

bass fit for a king...lol

[jakezilla382000]

That sentry is is american

nope

gah

stupid face

yoooooo

I'm francis

[dmlsidh]

@jakezilla382000 wild face rape

[yusukeelric]

@jakezilla382000 Rubberfruit FTW

[JiblinJoe4604]

This is some End Boss music right here. Am I wrong?

[Aeoncalcos91]

My favorite VG villain. I'm not sure why I like him more than say Bowser but I do. I think it's cause of his insanity and hate for DK and his friends and the fact that he manages to survive so very painful attacks raining from jumping on his head to 5 kongs attacking him every which way and who knows what K.lumsy did to hurt him at the end of DK 64, He always seems to keep things interesting when you fight him in DK games and his battle music is always great!

[SearingSeratil]

*says something about rubberfruit*

i can haz thumps up nao too?

[xChaoticNeutralx]

The End?

[xservintage]

THAT SENTRY is's American.

Nope.

[Pugslee3]

This music makes me think of drunk sailors having a good time in the galley!

[222phantom]

@Pugslee3 well.. the 1st part does

[akerswizard779]

Soldier: That sentry is American

Engineer: Nope!

*soldier grows*

Engineer: Stupid Face.

[SuperMarth345]

@akerswizard779 You just won the internet. Congratz. Now eat it before it grows into a television set that will send you to the penal zone.

[SirZippety56]

@akerswizard779 you are the sorriest excuse for a rubberfruit fan i have ever seen

[ACinthemaking]

HE HAS PINK EYE!!

[BluBoulzor]

People who disliked are either attention whores or retarded.

[TheBrendoni666]

4 people shut the game off when the credits were rolling

[LordPhalanx]

@TheBrendoni666 I hope you mean the Kredits XD

[GameFreak839]

@peanut3423 I'd prefer Crocodile Cachophony (I think that's how it's spelt...)

[GameFreak839]

@GameFreak839 OOPS! I said Cachophony when it's Cacophony! XD LOLOLOLOLOLOL!

[TLtimelord]

4 people were Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Dixie Kong, and Funky Kong

[Shadow11614]

way better than the gba version

[avatarchrisrocks]

Cranky Kong, Funky Kong, Diddy Kong, and Donkey Kong Disliked this video

[Omegahazard]

You do recomendations? Well If I might make one, how about the shere AWESOME Tiki Tong boss music, or the hypnotic tune the minions make

Seriously their are few things in life which is as catchy as that tune

[GameFreak839]

@Omegahazard Is that the Final Boss of Donkey Kong Country Returns? PLZ SAY ITS NOT!

[Omegahazard]

@GameFreak839 the FIna blss theme played during the fight against Tiki Tong? yes that is the one I mean

[GameFreak839]

@Omegahazard Is Tiki Tong the guy in the volcano? (Most likely.)

[QuartrGuy]

@GameFreak839 Yup.

[GameFreak839]

@QuartrGuy T_T Knew it... meh. it wasn't much of a spoiler.

[NibblesAndCasino]

nintendo does this trick a lot. it starts out anti-climactic, and then, when you're about to lose interest, it suddenly ascends to SHEER SHITPANTS EPICCITUDE!!!!

[Paikai111]

Epic...

[MaskedManiac225]

1st part: We are pirates and we sail on clear seas with no problems whatsoever CCCC:

2nd part: ENEMY SHIP OFF THE PORT BOW! PREPARE FOR BATTLE!

[buuski]

@kanteru1

no

[3030sonic]

Diddy And Donkey: Oh, hi King K! Nice time for a stroll... in... the... (Epic music starts playing and king K starts charging towards) HOLY FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!! RUN AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[UberPoofyNintendoChi]

this really should have cameoed in teh Scott Pilgrim Movie, what with its bassline and classic-like history. i would have loved to see a fight scene where someone was playing in the backgrund, or during teh bass battle scene. hack, even a cameo as one of the concert songs.

[xXForeverxMidnightXx]

@UberPoofyNintendoChi kinda like wat they did for the bass line from FF4?

[UberPoofyNintendoChi]

@xXForeverxMidnightXx yeah exactly!

[STOPNSWOPguy]

For Some Reason I cant Get This Outta My head! Which Means....

10/10!

[AgentDC76]

I could just imagine someone adding a bodhran in here somewhere :-p

It is a stompin' good tune, no question

[TheBeserkerLord]

Is it just me, or is the GBA version of this a lot better?

[Kamekification]

@TheBeserkerLord

are u on drugs?man snes version pwn it

[dividebyzero100]

his eyes are all like o_O

[LordPhalanx]

The People who disliked this video were Donkey, Diddy, and Cranky Kong. yet 111 of the Kremling army liked it =D

[TLtimelord]

@LordPhalanx lol, just might be, matey.

[SuperCowhead99]

OMFG HIS EYE!

[BritBricks]

King K. Rule: ARRRRGHGH! YOU GOT F***ING SALT IN MY EYE, YOU STUPID TIE WEARING BANANA EATING MORON

[olimarman911]

I dont see whats so great about this track... Im guessing i'm going to get a lot of thumbs down for this.

[TheSpriternumbertwo]

Too cool at the awesome part.

[superUltraman100]

King K. Rule is a NOOB!

[brayden66666666]

Y NOT!!!!!!!!

[blackmasterhand]

the begin sucks!

[TheFunkyBones]

@blackmasterhand SHUT UP YOU!

[hawkssuns08]

I hope I wasn't the only one back then that got fooled by the credits. Looking at it now i feel so stupid to think a Kommander made this game...

[TMOSP1]

another one of my faves

[MolotovCTail]

Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of WIN.

[SniperHero915]

@MolotovCTail t3h piratez lifez iz the lifez for me olololololol and a botel of win

[flippymaster02]

can someody tell me wat king k rool is! is he a crocodile or a gorilla????????

[hutyro]

@flippymaster02 he is a crocorilla XP

seriously, he is a crocodile

[ustube27]

omg he has golden man boobs

[Wondermailcodes]

MUST....FIND.....REMIX!!

[cramdawg64]

ANYONE WHO READS THIS. I MEAN ANYONE. LISTENS TO THIS SONG IN METAL!!

IT IS BEAST!!!!

[Hawkeye4500]

I am about to get A WHOLE F****NG bunch of thumbs down for this but... I dont care for this one to much...

[TheJmanMaster]

Thumbs up if you thought the game ended the first time K. Rool fell!

[AubreyHalo]

K. Rool is scary, I remember when I had DK for the 64 I use to run from him lol.

[Delfino224]

Why is K. Rool's Chest and stomach gold? I know he's a king but...

[firefox4132]

@Delfino224 Agreed, that's a tad much...

[Aeoncalcos91]

Nintendo has to use this villan more. No Mario spin offs don't count

[dragonstormx]

I died so many times on this fight, but I still loved the music.

[ZillaVenom]

*Says something about the people who disliked the video and gets thumbs ups*

[MrFartypants112]

@ZillaVenom Yeah you're right they are!

[happypandaguy]

COMPLETE CLASSICNESS is right!

[hopeberry29]

I LOVE YOU!

*ahem* Let me specify: I love you for choosing this track. I love the Brawl remix, but this on its own is plain AMAZING. This and Stickerbrush Symphony are GEMS of the DK franchise musically.

Man, you have -great- tastes in music, I must say. (Shameless flattery? Me? Pssh, you must be mistaken)

[omegadragon1000]

@thitstal6 are maybe DK punched him in the eye lol

[SonicWinds]

OOOHH--

Ahh, good ol' Kremlin sound effects. XD

[omegadragon1000]

look at his sexy blood shot eye LOL why is it blood shot?!?!?

[stingchameleon1]

i like this

[TTTmiller]

why is his eye all red, is it infected?

[jacobpotter]

@TTTmiller

nah, just bloodshot

[Elibean1]

Favorite part: 1:17 onward :D

[aaa222221]

this is one of my favorite songs from a game

[Oudaen]

If i would own an electric guitar and could play the guitar some better i would make some kind of rock remix of this, i believe that would sound very awesome...

[happypandaguy]

love it

[GodsofPie]

Every time I hear this, I think it will be a normal level. That is, until to the ACTUAL music begins. Then I know the final battle had finally begun.

[JohnpinkertonIV]

ahhhh this makes me hard

[TheManOnBoat]

@JohnpinkertonIV me too, brah, me too.

[JohnpinkertonIV]

@TheManOnBoat haha yesssss

[saririza]

soilder stonekong

because like in a jungle track

so good

hear a drum rolling in 0:29

[TheLordRatatosk]

7/10 out 8/10 in

[saririza]

0:29 epicness is like megaman x

[MarxNightmare]

This track just proves how much the classic verson pwns the newer version. I swear it would've been much cooler if they just used this in Brawl.

Also, why couldn't King K'rool be in Brawl? He would be awesome and frankly, the game could use more villians.

[CamtheHedgehog23]

If you say this track was either awesome or classic, I couldn't agree more.

[heart4element]

king k.rool with his shiny abs

the good old days ^^

[Scouter9001]

when i was a kid and played the game on gba i was used to dramatic final boss battle music and i thought the music was hilarious and cool

[saririza]

good melody,i like this music !

then, an unique combination of song

orchestrated happy song turn out to be cool and epic !

[calvinsora101]

One of my all-time favorite boss themes. The incredible change surprises you completely, and it transcends all expectations.

[froztbiten]

this song is very catchy

[metamaster5469]

this is my second favorite dkc battle theme next to crocodile cacophony.

[drummer4422]

Stickerbrush and Gangplank are different themes really. One's calm and another is a battle. But I think this is definitely the superior music...

[natashaault]

ii liike that iit start off wiiht a ''saiilor'' type tune then liike iinto the ''fiinal show down''

[Pwnyaall9000]

dammit, 8/10 kinda overated but cool enough

[gott957]

thumb me down all you want, but i think this kicks stickerbrush symphony's ass.

i can't sit still while listening to this

[PhyreSpore]

I don't see why you'd get rated down for that! (then again some people think EVERYONE should think like them) but those two songs are two kinds of AWESOME!

[lordiisawsome23]

you aint gonna get thumbed down this song kicks sticker brush symphonys ass any day

[XDragon097]

@gott957 Pretty hilarious that in expecting down, you get a ton of thumbs ups. XD But I agree with you. As much as I love stickerbrush symphony, EVERYONE loves King K. Rool's theme!

[ssbbforever5832]

@gott957 so right i keep dancing in my chair

[daxterdude366]

Awesome meter:10/10

start=Yay happy pirate music

middle=epic no wait EPIC!!!

[rederci939]

@daxterdude366

Vegeta! What does the scouter say about it's awesome level?!

It's  OVER 9000!!!/10

[augustusgloop1234]

It sounds kinda empty without the "OW!" from King K. Rool and the sound of cannonballs falling down.

[ShadowPrometheus]

oops, meant to give you a thumbs up, but hit thumbs down... my bad

[augustusgloop1234]

Never mind!

[sharplosion1]

the start doesnt fit k. rool but when it starts to pick up then thats what you expect from a crazy alligater bent on killing apes

[metamaster5469]

great song.

[ShadowPrometheus]

A true classic. When I got to this in DKC I was like "wtf"

[sevaryn11]

Rare was great at wtf moments.

[number999999999]

rare was great till it became raresoft and rareware

[gott957]

@number999999999

from what i know it was already called rareware in the snes and n 64 days, which was their golden time

[number999999999]

was only rare (rareware to be exact) ;) (check this game donkey kong 1 and check valkyrie profile 1 for example on enix) ^^

[UnableToGiveADam]

SCREW ATTACK FTW

[usernameXaygon]

i always wonder what happend to his eye

[yangboy123]

1:15

[justjake274]

I hate when I post twice on a video and the comments are close together but:

I've got 4 layers of goosebumps right now.

The song is that epic.

[CutManRules]

isn't it called ship deck

[peanut3423]

I never heard it by that title until you mentioned it.

[Merettich]

It's called "King K. Rool/ Ship Deck 2" in Super Smash Bros Brawl.

[HellbladesFFXI]

The OST calls it Gangplank Galleon, but Brawl's remix may be Ship Deck 2 :P lol. I do love this song, one of my favorite for DKC's bosses.

[CutManRules]

I was called that in Brawl wasn't it?

[TheSpriternumbertwo]

@peanut3423 Me neither.

[thebuzzerding]

@CutManRules it goes by both, just like bramble scramble can go by the stickerbrush symphony

[moonratds]

@CutManRules no its called gangplank galloen in dkc

[NorwegianCarWrecker]

you should check out the Super Smash Brothers Brawl remix of this song it is even better.

[PirateOfAmazon]

Dude, this bassline is so AWESOME!!! And the piracy theme in the song fits so well with the game. One of my favorites EVER!

[justjake274]

Da da la da dee daa deee da da la...dee...da.....da?.......Wo­ah...... A_A

Transition as a person listens to this for the first time..

[Kajinumberone]

ive never played this game BUT only for this song im buying a SNES and the game xD

[PirateOfAmazon]

Hell yeah, man, good decision. Oh, and buy also:

Mega Man X (X3 too);

Super Mario World 1 & 2 (Bowser's music in SMW2 is AWESOME);

Secret Of Mana;

Final Fantasy 6 (Dancing Mad is better than One Winged Angel);

And lots of others. U'll will not be regret. trust me.

[Kajinumberone]

One winged angel is the best for me but idc xD

I have Megaman X, the OST is great

Super Mario World is great and I had it and the sequel, well.... i dont know xD

[GigaysTheManly]

lalalalalala - NO!!!

SAHAHLOCKOSALODO!!!

[jonnobigz]

I remember this track so much! I had so much trouble with Rool hahahah

[SkorpTS]

I love this music. King K. Rool was hard, though, especially when you're like 8 years old. I like the original A LOT more than the Brawl version. Speaking of Brawl, I think K. Rool should be in it. That would be pure pink-eyed awesomeness!

[jseeker1867]

first 20 seconds are a bit wierd, but then it sounds so cool!

[CptxObvious]

I don't know, considering that the final battle is on a boat, I think it's rather fitting intro

[alabzam]

This has to be one of my fav boss themes of all time!!!
