Kirby - All Invincible Themes

Many video game franchises featuring an invincibility power-up has their recognizable short and iconic theme - Super Star from Mario being one of the best known. Some interesting trivia about the Invincible Candy (thanks wikirby.com):
- Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards and Kirby Mass Attack are the only games to have a different Invincible Candy theme than the recurring one.
- When the Invincible Candy is consumed in Kirby Air Ride, no special theme is played at all.
- Kirby's Dream Land 2 is the only Kirby main series game where the Invincible Candy is absent.
- Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards and Kirby and the Rainbow Curse are the only games where the Invincible Candy's effect does not transfer between rooms.
- Invincible Candy does not speed up its user or grant the ability to hurt on contact in the Kirby Fighters games.
Enjoy!

Kirby 64 and Mass Attack aren't included because this video is a compilation of the classic recurring Invincible Candy themes and leitmotifs. By the way, Kirby and the Forgotten Land's version is so amazing!

[@Um_Aleatorio_Na_Internet20XX]

kirby: whistle the music~ blind enemies: my holy DDD run!!

[@ProfessorHeavy1]

I love the angle that Forgotten Land took with its music. For instance, Forgotten Land is the only game since Squeak Squad to never directly reuse music (outside of the memory book). And using one of the series' most iconic and heart-pounding themes as an arrangement for the final weapon theme? APPRECIATE THIS GAME'S OST NOW.

[@Yiron0]

Well, there are some spinoffs that don't directly reuse music (e.g. Mass Attack, Battle Royale (not counting the "Other Games" music)). And, correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm 99% sure that Return to Dream Land also didn't directly reuse music (not counting Kirby GameCube)

[@ProfessorHeavy1]

Very true, Mass Attack and Battle Royale are pretty much the only ones. RtDL is a technicality, but only since it's in the Scope Shot subgame.

[@Yiron0]

forgot about that sub-game tbh (because who remembers the sub-games of RtDL), and I just remembered the Battle Royale does use the original Fighters Deluxe Title Theme, and Return of Meta Knight and Brothers in Arms from Planet Robobot also, if not counting the anime, then Rainbow Curse doesn't directly reuse anything.

[@pokemonfangirl]

I love how each version swaps with one another in an amazing way

[@J.Blazer]

At first, it's mostly more or less the same (though there are some obvious differences). And then we get to the "Modern" Kirby games (Return to Dreamland - present), and it's like: "It's faster now!!! No, wait, it's slower. And now it's some calm music to relax to 😌. PSYCH!!! IT HAS DRUMS NOW!!!! _AND_ A GUITAR!1!!!!!11!!!!"!1!! And then it's finally an actual song, which is awesome.

[@CrasherX2000]

I love how hyperactive Return to Dreamland’s version sounds

[@earlearlwood7050]

I absolutely LOVE how each theme seemed like it was slowly building up, almost like a beat drop. The way that the nightmare in dreamland/amazing mirror to the squeak squad sounded like it was right about to blow you out of the water, right before getting to all the wild tracks the modern brought (Yes I know super star ultra was there, but I’d call it just a slight tweak of the original)

[@J.Blazer]

Sure is nice having a full 5 and ½ minutes of invincibility! _Could've sworn this was supposed to last much shorter..._ Oh well!

[@Blue-fg8vt]

That's just the song extending after you die to it

[@revthescatman137]

[@hioman]

I like how the modern kirby games take the theme that playes when you get the special item from the game, and adds kirby's, the game's, and the boss's lite motif, but mouthful mode had no such song. So they used invincible candy for it

[@Macky2Tacky]

[@goweegeem6195]

there’s a remix of the invincibility theme in the anime, too! it plays during the pappy pottey episode when they’re all flying on brooms. i don’t think it’s been released individually, though

[@thememerguy7680]

The final boss was life changing for me,I have never seen a masterpiece

[@Moonseid]

As soon as I saw this new video grace my feed when it was uploaded, prior to me playing The Forgotten Land, I figured the latest Kirby game had to have done something to the Invincibility Candy theme. Beat it a couple of days ago and to say I was pleasantly surprised is an understatement. The rendition in the final battle is amazing of course, but even without it, I really love the normal version as well.

[@25mbl1995]

[@blue994]

1:01 is it just me or kirby is going fast with that fighter ability, it happened to me i was confused

[@Banjoisawesome]

Fun fact: In Kirby's Dreamland, if you power up with the Invincibility Candy and stand in the Shotzo, you can destroy it after a few seconds. I did it myself when I played.

bro the transitions here are perfect

[@the_star_ajr]

the theme slowly got better and better as the years went on

[@reesecates8620]

Here's how I would rate them. Dreamland 1: Sounds nice. Adventure: Similar to Dreamland 1, but with added instruments that improve it. Super Star: Sounds even better than the last 2! Dreamland 3: Sounds pretty good and similar to how 64 could've sounded like had it used a more traditional invincibility theme. Tilt 'n' Tumble: This feels like an improvement from Adventure since this is on GBC, but not as good as Super Star or Dreamland 3. Nightmare in Dreamland/Amazing Mirror: Major step up from Adventure and gives you the want to run around. Squeak Squad: Just the one from NID/AM, but higher quality since it's on DS. Super Star Ultra: Not sure if I can call this an improvement over Super Star because I like both. Return to Dreamland: Even better than all the ones before this one. Giving you even more of a want to run around than ever before. Triple Deluxe/Planet Robobot: Sounds alright for what it is. Not super amazing or anything, but pretty cute. Rainbow Curse: I like the instrument choice here, even slowing down the tempo to fit the aesthetics of the game's art style. However, it just doesn't scream "I want to run around destroying everything in my path" as much as the other ones do. Star Allies: I like the upbeat nature of this one. Forgotten Land: This one is even better than all the other ones before it, even Return to Dreamland's version! I also really love the electric guitars in this one. Big Rig Mouth: Legendary. Just. Legendary. What more needs to be said? Extra: This was a stage theme? Fine I guess.
