Super Smash Bros. Ultimate: Main Theme | Orchestral Cover

[@alexmichalski7559]

This new theme feels like a mix of Brawl's main theme and Smash 4's main theme, with the playfulness of Smash 4 and the epic orchestral stuff of Brawl

[@viki7268]

It does sound like a mix

[@alextygesen3101]

Large amount of melee in this version. Easily the most influencing.

[@nessdapkboyo4755]

Idk about y'all but I hear Melee, Brawl, and Sm4sh

[@SoupLadles]

Alex Michalski It's like a mix of Brawl and Melee with Melee being the main influencer.

[@Pyrobaconstudios]

eh i don't hear much smash 4 at all. smash 4 was way too laidback as ana opening/main theme anyway, only good as a menu theme.

[@talesofsymphonia295]

I swear I'll spend 30 minutes in the main menu screen when I finally play this game

[@ArylBarrel]

Lol so true...And please Nintendo, PUT AN OPENING CINEMATIC LIKE THE PAST GAMES!!!

[@hassanatris3215]

@@mynameisross2502 no this is the menu theme

[@candra1703]

I'm gonna be on smash in general for the next few years

[@Fennaixelphox]

Six months later, and this specific rendition of the song is nowhere to be found in the game...

Is it bad that I want someone to draw all of the smash characters playing in an orchestra with Sakurai as the conductor?

[@alexpufahl7484]

5ashll probably not. It sounds like a nifty idea!

Wow you made the SSBU theme already? Talk about quick.

[@smoothiefries]

Folktales: light is good, darkness is bad | reality: light is good, darkness is bad. | Smash: both are bad.

[@iSynthh]

nah, Brawl's was still better lol

[@armandonocerino438]

[@yoshi_drinks_tea]

lol lol OK, write something better then.

[@nahouledeb5949]

@lol lol I speak at a pro musician, this theme is truly one of the most epic theme I ever heard.

[@nickthedreamer4434]

So glad to see your take on this theme. I mean, if you didn't, I'm sure we'd all be suggesting it later :P

[@ryangallagher9723]

_Every soul contains a whisper of light_ _Hear them now and see the end within sight_ _No restraint, no further need to hold back_ _Show your courage and prepare to attack!_ _Colours weave into a spire of flame_ _Spirits blazing as you fight in their name_ _Raise your sword against the dark and the light_ _Might and valour shall prevail in the ultimate fight!_

[@iancunn99]

The App State Video Game Ensemble is covering this piece this semester. We’ve practiced it at least a few times so far and I must say that it sounds utterly badass. We’re very excited to say the least.

[@by1742]

Props for doing this so quickly and so well. I know I'm in no position to criticize (I'm definitely not musically adequate enough to make an arrangement of this level) but in the violin solo at 00:40, I believe the F is natural, not sharp. Sorry for being that one dude, really great arrangement!

[@VGOScore]

You're right, it was a mistake. Anyway, it was already corrected in the pdf score. I always try to make the best possible and I would like to spend more time reviewing, but it is not always possible. Obviously I can not update the video, but I am always updating the pdf with suggestions and small errors that the community detects. Thanks for your contribution :)

[@epicstyle0]

Noooo now i can't unhear it

[@spencerelliottspencere1792]

are you kidding, i love it:)

[@by1742]

Yeah, either way it sounds fine.

[@daniisd2555]

Oh that explains it! I knew it felt different at that part but i figured it was a stylistic choice.

[@ZaiDrizzleDrop]

Damn shit got epic as hell at 2:18 , I was on my twitter and I just went straight back here to comment this after hearing that part

[@x-biaur1995]

I need to hear this at a live concert. You listening, Nintendo?

[@Mar1o_640]

My God This is as epic as the original!!!!

[@TheAwsomeboy1200]

Since you already did the Melee opening theme and did an astounding job with this theme, I think it would be really awesome if you arranged the Super Smash Bros. Brawl theme and the Smash 4 themes, too!

[@AmzorcenEX]

The Ultimate Finale

[@Synth268]

I don’t know about everyone else, but this piece seems really familiar to me. Like I’ve heard it somewhere else. But really good job man! You got this out wicked fast!

[@thebestthingsincetelevisio1546]

Daniel DaBagel I think the feeling of Deja Vu is because it was composed in a very similar style to the last smash bros game. While personally I prefer this theme, they both share the same very basic concept. Of having your favorite characters Duke it out in an epic battle. And I think the music in smash 4 and smash ultimate do a great job of conveying that feeling. Just ssbu does it better.

[@autisticfantasies]

Music theory

[@Blitz_Spencer]

Fortnite is CANCER The exact rhythm isn’t the same, but general key/note/chord progression was similar. Go back to Inklings’ reveal trailer and listen to the quiet choir, and the tune will sound familiar.

[@Blitz_Spencer]

Daniel DaBagel This theme takes motifs from all Smash games that makes it seem very familiar. It’s geniusly composed to be like that.

lyrics Colors weave into a spire of flame Distant sparks call to a past still unnamed Bear this torch against the cold of the night Search your soul and re-awaken the undying light! _ On that day, when the sky fell away Our world came to an end In our rise did a fading sunrise in the dark Glimmering shadows _ Silence froze in the spaces between Stretching out beyond time Rising up as the chorus of souls finds a force Flickering through the void! _ These little sparks cling onto life Everyone caught in the struggle And then the storms of change They fan the flames scattering ashes to the wind! _ Every soul contains a whisper of light Flaming, fading as it dwindles from sight No escape, no greater fate to be made! In the end the chains of time will not break _ Colors weave into a spire of flame Distant sparks call to a past still unnamed Bear this torch against the cold of the night Search your soul and re-awaken the undying light! _ As fate spins a thread without end New life draws it’s first breath Blossoming in a soil reclaimed from the past Where destiny holds fast! _ Here where we stand hand clenched in hand Everyone caught in the struggle This is the day we finally find A way stepping into our tomorrow! _ Every soul contains a whisper of light Growing louder as it calls to unite From the distance sings a chorus of souls Rising slowly stirring heat from the coals _ Colors weave into a spire of flame Distant sparks call to a past still unnamed Bear this torch against the cold of the night Light will guide you on your way to the Ultimate Fight! _ Every soul contains a whisper of light Growing louder as it calls to unite From the distance sings a chorus of souls Rising Slowly stirring heat from the coals _ Colors weave into a spire of flame Distant sparks call to a past still unnamed Bear this torch against the cold of the night Light will guide you on your way to the Ultimate Fight!

being a player of both bassoon and cello, I can verify that the parts look exactly like something i would be actually playing lol ('^ _ ^) great work man

Yeah the person who arranged this has a good understanding of the orchestra

[@wishmaker7863]

THANK YOU! I was trying to figure out how to play this on my trumpet by ear (sans any sort of musical ear, unfortunately), so this is a MASSIVE help!

[@lightdelus]

I can smell this song's real life performance from Nintendo already

[@bruhmomento.]

I PEED MY PANTS WHEN I HEARD THIS MASTERPIECE

[@SegaDisneyUniverse]

I would pay some serious money to watch a live orchestra of this game! I went to a live concert at Rhode Island 3 years ago for Legend of Zelda, and it was the best day of my life!😄

[@allenlin2549]

[@valtween162]

Where's the Piccolo part? It has solo parts along with the flute. Bar 23 should have the same rhythm as bar 24 for the violin solo. Bar 39 too. Bass parts and harmonies seem to be wrong from 1:05 to 1:17 1:37-1:41 might need to be rewritten. This is overall great! Keep going!

[@ice-rv7tz]

this is ridiculously good and accurate to the actual song, and it sounds almost exactly like it. But I like to nitpick and, I think the third note in the violin solo should be a half step down Apart from that, it's amazing how you got the sound to be so perfect, especially at the climax. I love it

[@herbs4135]

I swear, this theme song is literally killing me Everytime I play this game. It gets incredibly repetitive!
