Kirby - All Boarding the Halberd Themes

Hi everyone, I'm starting a new series of videos featuring collection of recurring themes throughout Kirby games and official arrangements. As you know, the Kirby series likes to spoil us with fan service of returning characters, hidden plots and remastered music.
This time I collected all "Boarding the Halberd" themes, first featured in Revenge of Meta Knight in Super Star. It can be heard during the exterior area of the Halberd and usually paired with the interior theme. But I'll save that one for another time ;)
Enjoy!
Tracklist:
0:00 - Kirby Super Star
0:59 - Super Smash Bros Brawl
2:02 - Kirby Super Star Ultra
3:01 - Kirby Super Star Ultra CD

6:20 - Dedede's Drum Dash Deluxe
7:31 - Kirby's Blowout Blast

Vul: So how many guns do you want on the Halberd MK:...Yes

[@AzumarillConGafasBv]

MK: How many Heavy Lobsters we need to create? Vul: *YESSSS!!!*

[@turretboi]

There are at least 150 cannons aboard the halberd, judging by various game and anime screenshots (assuming the anime halberd has the same build as the game one)

[@Benito675]

Vul:So we're gonna use all of them right? MK: ... Vul: WE'RE GOING TO USE ALL OF THEM RIGHT!?

Meta knight is canonically American

Kirby is Japanese and king dedede is Russian

[@dreamlanderjoel8162]

I've seen some people argue over whether the original Super Star version or the Smash Bros remix is better, but I personally like the Super Star Ultra version the most.

[@flow185]

I agree on this take. Ngl superstar ultra is really just a straight upgrade to super star

[@carsonthenorthcaroliniante7635]

Cd is my fav

[@Kionic2.0]

No no Kirby memorable arrangements is better

[@Kionic2.0]

And cd

[@OSCnomore]

Same

[@IDKisReal2401]

Grammy winner, as it should be

[@mattdrummond3552]

I tend to prefer Kirby’s Epic Yarn versions of songs the most. Love the raw, jazzy, natural style

[@Rexaura888]

I wish that more remixes of this theme kept the driving, steady percussion and bass line during the triplet sections. It feels like everything grinds to a halt at that point when it gets there in everything but the original, its DS remake, and its slowed down version in Drum Dash.

[@ego-lay_atman-bay]

I kind of like it grinding to a hault there because it gives a bigger impact to the notes

[@eereree]

The Epic Yarn version gives a perfect example of “combining” the Smash Bros version and the original.

[@GoldWheels]

I will never get tired of hearing so much remixes of this song

[@SpatialSloth]

Quarantine really got people coming out of the woodwork huh? I don't think I've ever been this happy to see Kirby show up on my home page :D

[@jmad6476]

There was one part in Kirby star allies during the meta night guest star allies that played a remix of this mashed with dedede’s theme

[@gianfranconavarro9154]

That play’s in one of the extra levels. Also, that remix is from Kirby planet robobot, more specifically from the 3-D clones fight.

[@jmad6476]

@@gianfranconavarro9154ohh gotcha

[@randomness.stupidness]

the epic yarn version slaps THE MOST. change my mind, i dare you.

[@turretboi]

The 25th anniversary orchestral part is far more grandious.

[@mattheholic2]

I know I'm 2 years late but this song actually is in Planet Robobot during the opening cutscene just before Castle Dedede is shot by the laser. (When the Halberd first shows up.) Another instance is in the final cutscene when the Halberd shows up.

[@terminalvelocityrunner2202]

3:30 - hey, wait a minute... *looks at Sonic Heroes intro movie* WAIT A MINUTE!!

[@Kionic2.0]

It basically looks the same

[@1dogissky]

He’s on a roll with the remixes

[@12kidcat]

Last one sounds like something you’d hear shoji meguro compose

Bat wings?

[@oshawott5308]

what's kirby super star ultra CD? is it like, a soundtrack CD? I can't find anything about it anywhere.

[@foreverkirby]

Yes, the soundtrack CD has three special arrangements. Like the one featured in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q5jUeZyEbbuCj5I

[@marrqi7wini54]

Somebody translate the memorial arrangement.

[@foreverkirby]

This is an unofficial lyrics translation from Kirby wiki: I pierce through Soldiers of evil Ambition aims for a Shining Star! I entrust my back to my partners I submit my heart Flap your wings, Phoenix The name's Halberd To the skies with my shining sword Take Off!! I cut up lurking soldiers Traveling the galaxy, a Shooting Star! I challenge my rival I wager my heart To the world that is depraved The chance is ripe To the skies with my shining sword Fly Away!!

[@skeloshi2030]

Wait, Dedede's Drum Dash Deluxe's one isn't the same as Super Star Ultra's one but slowed down ? That's what I've ever thought 😶

[@Da_Trololz]

You should've put in the Halberd theme that was in Kirby GCN. (It's the "Fly! Kirby of the stars" theme from Return to Dreamland).

[@bulbakurb2385]

Err, the Kirby Air Ride vers is a direct copy of Nightmare Warship, right?

[@foreverkirby]

Right, it's used as an alternate track in Machine Passage

[@bulbakurb2385]

@@foreverkirby Alright yeah, I was lookin for that for a sec then realized that it's not a remix lol

[@ShokudaikiriMitsutada]

SNES Super Star is a truly banger.

[@franjr-vz9jb]

My favorite themes of Kirby Meta Knight's Revenge is super smash bros brawl, kirby super star ultra/cd, kirby epic yarn, kirby 25th anniversary, and kirby memorial arrangements.

[@franjr-vz9jb]

And Dedede's drum dash deluxe.

The orchestral version sounds too timid imo... I wonder what it would sound like if they actually had been in a panic to board the airship lol
