KIRBY KRACKLE "Ring Capacity" (Green Lantern Song) Official Music Video

[@t-in-japan]

"My hands burn, my skin stings," I've often wanted DC to write a story wherein it's explained that the Green Lantern energy is actually super painful to use, hence necessitating its user to have great willpower. They touched on it briefly in Blackest Night, but it's otherwise not been touched upon.

[@Riddler909]

Not painfull but geofg johns introduced concept that made projection of one weak construct complete mind exhaustion to green arrow losing all will

[@TheCJification]

Nothing is more badass than actually singing the Green Lantern's Oath from 2:17 - 2:32. That's the part that always gets me for the reason that someone else mentioned - it's something that you always imagine a hero to be like. It just gives you that little boost of confidence just to say - despite the odds. It's like you can feel the turning point of the video at that point.

[@BeardedPavi]

Many years later, I still need more songs like these

[@MrQuanzilla]

I’m writing something today!!

[@BeardedPavi]

@@MrQuanzilla All the lantern songs, ALL THE COLORS

[@KalvinEllis]

"I'm flying through the cold of space, Seems I've yet to find my place"; "No time for doubt, no quick eject. Don't give in to fear, like my father said". Really nice how the lyrics put emphasis on Hal's personality and motivations.

[@emichusai8378]

[@ryverwynd3134]

Wish these guys had a song for the blue lanterns.

[@HollywoodZach]

I discovered this song many years ago and I will never not get hyped up when the Green Lantern Corps oath is recited.

[@quagmirevsbog]

i love how green lantern just slaps sinestro at the end

[@alanabananah1714]

You guys are so amazing, I’ve been listening to this song since I was about 9, your songs inspired me to make my own comics and hero’s/villains. Truly a talented group!!

[@kirbykracklemusic]

Thank you, Alana! Since 9 is quite a compliment, and I’m honored the music was inspiring to create something awesome! - Kyle

[@alanabananah1714]

@@kirbykracklemusic WOW!! You responded that’s literally a dream come true!! You guys are my favorite band and I’m so thankful you saw my comment !!!

[@BovineDesigns]

How am I just now stumbling onto this? This rocks! I love the ring capacity alerts throughout, it really gives a sense of urgency.

[@WardNightstone]

Whats wild is this song could have been in the movies sound track

[@zangatsubankai]

"That's the tragedy of all this, Jordan. Hal. We'll always be friends". Sinestro isn't *all* bad. Even if he is Space Hitler.

[@noahcrawley7068]

Andrew McGlame I mean sometimes ya just gotta be space hitler.

[@Justinhulk]

I've never heard Sinestro being named space Hitler I love it!!!

[@matthewwoodruff1270]

Lol my friend and I always refer to Darkseid as Space Hitler

[@michaelkomsky1313]

lol Hitlet got nothing on Darkseid

[@bennyromero9551]

Frieza is space hitler

[@BarbarosaAlexander]

Just wanted to tell you that my daughter LOVES this song. "It's the most awesome song I've ever heard" she said. She's one happy six-year-old. I quite liked it, too.

[@kirbykracklemusic]

Hahaha the highest compliment! Please tell he thank you for me. :) If she likes that, here is the 8-Bit version as well! kirbykrackle.bandcamp.com/track/ring-capacity-8-bit-version

[@PrinsaVossum]

This song is to Hal Jordan what "The Ballad of Barry Allen" is to The Flash. Also, I've heard of Betsy Lee. She did an animated music video for the song "Mordred's Lullaby" by Heather Dale.

[@l0sts0ul89]

Ya still alive

[@acadityac]

You are absolutely right!

[@anumesum7318]

[@chickenpermission4223]

This sounds like a radio station name "I'm John and you are listening to ring capacity!"

[@NegaDruid]

Working the Oath into the song made me grin so wide. This is a /fantastic/ song!

[@emichusai8378]

NegaDruid of course it is we are talking about Green Lanterns here

[@DarkGreenHero]

I'm living it..worst part is next to reaching 0% on emotion... Is fighting a Red Lantern... One tried to take my head a couple of times.

[@alnu8355]

I like all the lanterns, I'm more partial to Kyle since I grew up with him as Green Lantern, but I like when they brought Hal back they all kind of worked like the Musketeers, Hal was Athos, John was Aerimis, Guy was Porthos, and Kyle was Da'Argatan. (Sorry, terrible with spelling french names).

[@robertszczepanski3998]

no matter how much time passes this is still a bagger

[@kirbuu]

can see why the lead singer was chosen battered super hero gets blown thru the roof of the building he doesn't even stop singing

[@TanarianDavies]

You forgot to mention that the Silver Age Green Lantern made his first appearance in the comic title Showcase #22 (October 1959), so if anybody's ripping anybody off for story ideas, it's the one from 40 years later.

[@chrisdrew5150]

still listening to this in 2019 just that good

[@lila_mora6848]

Same it was a part of my childhood 🙂😌🤘

[@GreenLanternCorps2814]

I'm a huge Green Lantern fan, and I only discovered this song in 2020. :D

[@The_Stoned_Wanderer]

2020 here lol known about it for a few years

[@GoldenMan1002]

Damned straight. Just found out about this today and wish I had learned of it years ago.

[@undeadgames309]

2021 and still going

[@kirbuu]

From the looks of the first girl to have the courage to cheer at the end i would say the star sapphires are about to find there newest recruit.

[@MangetsuSAMURAI]

Ring Capacity is the best superhero song since Aquaman's Lament and Jimmy Olsen's Blues.

[@seankorzenborn8912]

i expected the beat drop... but on the power drop.. loved 83.2 as the dropout on the refill

[@thatguywiththetripod8577]

How come it took me this long to find a original Green Lantern song and music video?

[@deathdude42]

the green lantern oath is just too damn good to not be used by a real organization

[@CaptainMarvel4Ever]

Today is 2/8/14 Green Lantern day! (because earth is part of sector 2814)

[@TheScarecrowDrawing]

I can't believe I did not realize Green Lantern day. If you'll excuse I'll plunge into a deep depression now.

[@CaptainMarvel4Ever]

TheDrawingScarecrow *Suddenly a Grey light approaches you* "Drawing Scarecrow, you have great depression, join the Grey Lantern Core.... or don't, not like it matters man.. sigh..." :)

[@TheScarecrowDrawing]

I shall become the Grey Lantern of sector 2814!

[@CaptainMarvel4Ever]

TheDrawingScarecrow *Grey Ring:* "Yeah whatever, in the end it's all pointless... Get ready to meet the leader of the Corps, Eeyore!...meh"

[@artexgrey6266]

You should really meet my friend Xan, he's somewhere in the Baldur's Gate.

[@joshuastandlee3455]

I get chills every single time he sings about the power returning! I first saw this video at Emerald City Comic Con 2014, and I've loved Kirby Krackle ever since!

[@jkell159]

ok i just listened to ballad of barry allen by jim's big ego and this is definitely it's equivalent for GL. NICE!

[@fhantomfoxygang]

FUN FACT: Jim is the nephew of the creator of Barry Allen.

[@sailorstar4367]

+jkell159 The Ballad of Barry Allen is how I discovered these guys.

[@JennyEverywhere]

I met you guys at a con years ago, when I discovered your music. This song still helps me through the dark times. Thank you.

[@kirbykracklemusic]

Thank you for your support and I’m really happy it makes you steer towards the light. All my best, and stay safe this holiday season.

[@williambeck2372]

@@kirbykracklemusic A friend of mine introduced me to you guys via this video and it's still one of my favorite videos from you guys. Even making it my personal measuring stick against some of your later stuff which usually are great anyways.

[@Rozonkomo]

@zune145 They are percentages of power that the ring is at, I believe they are technically quoted as well from different specific fights in the comics.

[@100blueeyedboy]

Love the GL series so much. Just finished Blackest Night and so looking forward to Brightest Day. This song is just EPIC.

[@korvacs138]

So I found this video by typing in Green Lantern Song. As much as I dislike Geoff John's new thing of the power rings having a number capacity instead of just charging once a day, this song hits my nerd center dead on. You guys are great, and I'll be digging into your stuff. Thanks a lot for this.

[@christianmathisenjr1800]

Awesome MV. Fun song choice and editing. Great job.

[@AlabastardAngel]

How am I just now finding this! I need more like this. If only there was a Blue Lantern one too. But this is a BANGER!!! Cannot overstate how much this charges my soul

[@kirbykracklemusic]

Thank you! There are 10 years of albums containing jams just like this for you to go explore wherever music can be streamed or purchased. Thank you!

[@Amsayy]

If a guy ever proposes to me with a Green Lantern Power Ring, I'd know right then and there: This is the man I'm going to spend the rest of my life fighting evil alongside.

[@TheShockVox]

Benny the Comicstorian. It was through his videos that I became the large Green Lantern fan I am today; and while looking for music to play while reading many years ago I discovered this song and this band. I wear a GL ring everyday at work, and I never would’ve become the GL fan I am today, and might’ve never heard this great song that I love if it weren’t for him. His death is a bigger blow than I think anyone could’ve expected, and it brought me back here.

[@crunch5]

I remember watching this years ago in my now accidentally deleted account. Miss those days.

[@MrDylancurry]

Home from work late, worn-out and ready for bed. But intead wound up re-reading this week's GREEN LANTERN (best comic out this week), with this song blasting through my head phones. Now i'm wide awake, recharged, with nothing left to do. Dammit.

[@Gunstonization]

Good for you guys! Geekin' out!

[@countdrakeula1169]

My mom would always play this for me when I was younger and in just re found it thanks for making my childhood

[@TheShockVox]

Haha, man this is amazing. I was looking for a GLTAS soundtrack playlist to listen to while I read Green Lantern Annual 2, but I saw this. The song's amazing. Now I have it playing on repeat on in the background, while I continue to read. I gotta check out your other stuff, awesome work.

[@Nevertoleave]

I'm not even a big Green Lantern fan, but something about the oath gets me. The justice/comic book lover in me I guess. Great song and I love the animation. Really up beat, could listen to this all night.

[@Deni_Sokolovic]

For some unknown reason, this song came to my mind. I can't believe that it's been 7-8 years since I last heard this song. The nostalgia is unimaginable.

[@Dordracnor]

The girl that eats people is there, she targeting one of the band mates!

[@saxcobra895]

I just found this song on an Instagram post and I'm stunned I've never heard or seen this before. Fantastic!

[@Arting-Sir]

The way the girl had the courage to cheer at the end feels like she's going to be a Sapphire Lantern

[@ShogunOfTheSword]

I really hope this is going to be in the movie. If not the movie makers are missing a chance for something epic. Great video and song guys

[@richardchoi168]

still great after all these years. this video has more drama (and is much more watchable) than the GL movie!

[@RockyHaggard]

This is probably the greatest thing a GL fan like me has ever seen on KZbin. Great work.

[@rodrock145]

Always play this when I'm GL in injustice 2 fighting superman

[@InhumanFan98]

It shows you dont need superman, just a super man! 😊

[@JaelinBezel]

Now i want to send my dad a screenshot of that page in Green Lanterns where one of the original seven lanterns is incinerated by her ring being wildly overloaded by her willpower and say “this is why safety limits are a thing”

[@aaronharrop97]

Heard this song when it first came out and now revisiting for nostalgia . In brightest day in blackest night

[@Zer00utcast]

in blackest day in brightest night beware your fears turned in to light let those who try to stop whats right burn like my power sinestro's might

[@Zer00utcast]

in fearful day in raging night with strong hearts full our souls ignite when all seems lost in the war of light look to the stars for hope burns bright

[@Zer00utcast]

for hearts long lost and full of fright for those alone in blackest night accept our ring and join our fight love conquers all with violet light

[@Zer00utcast]

with blood and rage of crimson red ripped from a corpse so freshly dead together with our hellish hate we'll burn you all, that is your fate

This has to be in the remake

[@Dunge0n]

2:37-2:40 would look EPIC with quality CGI! How I long for the days when Warner Bros. was willing to let every Rock, Pop and R&B artist make a lavish Batman music video... this masterpiece would have made a delicious "after the credits" treat.

[@Jephael]

If they ever do a film reboot, this better be in the end credits!!!

[@axolotl2686]

I'm flying through the cold of space Seems I've yet to find my place Guarding Twenty Eight Fourteen Don't know why it's chosen me When from the corner of my eye I catch a glimpse of evil light The fear it tries to swallow me Like I'm just some guy with an emerald... Ring Capacity, Ninety Point One Ring Capacity, Seventy Nine Ring Capacity, Sixty Eight Five Now I'm fighting for my life Ring Capacity, Ninety Point One Ring Capacity, Seventy Nine Ring Capacity, Sixty Eight Five Now the trick's to stay alive I see the man who's made me bleed The one who taught me everything A purple man obsessed with me Soul lost to the dark and it's now extinct From any good he once possessed Pledge to the oath now laid to rest No time for doubt, no quick eject Don't give in to fear, like my father said Ring Capacity, Fifty Point Nine Ring Capacity, Forty Six One Ring Capacity, Thirty Eight Five Now I'm fighting for my life Ring Capacity, Fifty Point Nine Ring Capacity, Forty Six One Ring Capacity, Thirty Eight Five Now the trick's to stay alive My hands burn, my skin stings Running low on what I need A blast of light, my last recourse I find my way to the power source In Brightest Day, In Blackest Night No Evil Shall Escape My Sight Let those who worship evil's might Beware my power, Green Lantern's light Ring Capacity, Forty Six One Ring Capacity, Fifty Eight Nine Ring Capacity, Sixty Four Five Now I'm charged and burning bright Ring Capacity, Seventy Five Ring Capacity, Eighty Three Two Ring Capacity, Ninety Nine Nine Now I'm back in to the fight

[@legendofFranktheTank]

fun fact, if you move the mp3 of the album version of this song, to your pc from the CD, or move it straight from the cd to an mp3 player, the song shows up as "Rig Capacity"

[@FearlessSpinner]

@TanaSilvers It refers to the energy level of the ring.The ring has limited energy resources and can be drained by excessive use.The ring itself informs its user about its current energy level in percentage ;)

[@amanpossessed7334]

The chorus is so clever and catchy. Volume!! to up..

how am I just now hearing this... just bought on itunes...
