Honestly, I love that Dark Pit isn't just evil, cuz that would be way too easy to write. Being created by a magic mirror as the exact opposite of Pit, and it turns out that the opposite of Pit isn't evil and is just a lone wolf curmudgeon. And if you think about it,,, yeah that is the opposite of Pit, considering Pit is the general of Palutena's army, so he would have to be used to working together with others.
@Ironwolf 1 I think the mirror of truth work like it said on the tin. palutana said it reflect want on one's soul and the one thing pit yearns more than ever is his own freedom and independence. pit wish to fly by himself and with that ability he can go where ever he wanted with no restriction, unlike the gift of flight that last 5 min and is an on-rails experience. the mirror reflect that and made entity that represent the desire in it pure raw form.

Dark Pit։ ՛՛Don't you see what she is doing? Why do you think she is with men in the bathtub almost at all times!?'' Pit:''Because she's purifying the water, of course!'' Dark Pit: ''What's your age, Pit?'' Pit:''15!'' Dark Pit: ''I asked for your age, not your IQ!''

Wow, this just appeared in my recommended, blown away with how good this song was. Then I noticed that the Smash Footage seemed a bit familiar, turns out it was from one of my old Smash 4 Montages haha. Hope Kid Icarus Uprising 2 happens on switch soon :]
Well, since Pitto left The Forces of Nature and joined Palutena's army between Smash 4 and Smash Ultimate and took the Lighting Chariot with him, we can say she never had his loyalty.
@@astralshadow6193 Implying that you need to do anything for the Gods to want to destroy your life. I mean, let’s not look far: in the Bible, God and the devil decided to destroy the life of a guy and everyone dear to him just to see if he would still grovel to their feet afterward
The lyrics in this song are very accurate to Dark Pit. He isn’t really evil, just the exact opposite of Pit. The lyrics represent that, since they sound like a warrior for a kingdom or person who’s fed up with being used like a pawn and wants to be just a loner. That’s really the exact opposite of Pit, so good job with the lyrics! And amazing vocals as always!
People may wonder why the meter was brought down from 7.1 to 6.1 at the beginning. It just hit me that it suits Dark Pit perfectly. He's not an "infernal" type of enemy but nor is he in the range of "heatin' up". Extra Spicy suits the music and how Dart is, as the description states, an edgy boi. He tries hard, but he's not quite as impressive as he wants to come off as. That's how I see it anyways.
Then again. There is usually "Nothing Harder" than fighting a superior copy of yourself, which is exactly what Dark Pit was. He could fly on his own, he hit MUCH harder than Pit with any of his weapons, not to mention he was (and still very much is) WAY smarter than Pit since he values arenas where his weapon of choice is at it's strongest. Like a closed in cramped space where he can take full advantage of his Ogre Club to rip you to shreds without giving you any space to run from the club itself, or it's MASSIVE charged shots. Or on a mountian range where he can safely shoot you with the Dark Pit Staff while you can't hit him with anything save for the longest ranged weapons in the game (a.k.a anything that either has just as much, if not, more range than it like the Laser Staff or Earthmaul Club). Or during the final encounter in chapter 6 where he waits on a collection of floating platforms seemingly designed to be unwieldy to those who can't fly or jump very well, especially with how easy it is to accidentally fall off of one while dodging attacks from Dark Pit. This is something Dark Pit abuses the absolute hell out of, since again, he can fly, while you can't.
I love dark pit. He’s not just the generic “shadow character” he actually had personality and character. He was awesome~ I genuinely hope they make another kid Icarus. ^^
I know musicals Take alotta time but i have the urge to request a kid icarus uprising the musical. Edit:this aged seriously well. We're getting musical bytes for Kid Icarus Uprising.
sadly, Alex doesnt take musical requests, and due to copyright bullshit, a Nintendo musical wouldnt be possible as it wouldn't be allowed to get monetized. plus im pretty sure he already has plans for another project after CTTM if i remember correctly.
This was great. I remember playing uprising a long time ago, and this was one of my favorite tracks in the game. The lyrics fit the character, as it fit with how he’s Dark pit, not evil pit. He’s an edgy boi who doesn’t follow anyone if he doesn’t want to, as apposed to Pit who does basically anything the person helping him tells him (more or less). And Alex is a great singer as always Plus whoever was playing the gameplay footage was pretty good.
@@orangeleaf2056 yeah definitely the Smash part. I play as Dark Pit a lot in Smash but I can't do short hops very well so I'm lazy with learning combos. I rely on reading my opponent and grabs mostly.

I love how the game’s soundtrack incorporates lyre music mostly because the instrument originated in Greece, where Uprising takes place. Nintendo really did their research on this series and it deserves more popularity.
Into a shining dawn To fight another day The world keeps fighting on and I see black and gray Before the night falls I’m gonna take flight And then I’m gonna find my way Into a fading dawn I’ll beat all the odds The world keeps fighting on So I scream to the sky “Damn the Gods” Soar through the sky On Cherubim wings They look at me Think they know everything All alone but now I’m free You can’t buy my loyalty This is my worst you see Welcome to the darker side of meeeee The darker side of meeeeeeeeeeeee 234! Into a shining dawn See the darkness of man I’ll never be a pawn to a fickle lords plans You start the attacks And we pick up your slack And we’ll never be back where we began Into the fading dawn Or so it would seem You’ll never get along Goodbye, peaceful dreams Damn your schemes! Soar through the sky On cherubim wings They look at me Think they know everything All alone but now I’m free You can’t buy my loyalty If this is my worst you see Welcome to the darker side of meeeee The darker side of meeeeeeeeeeeee Into a shining dawn Seeing only the night Forced to prepare for the next target to fight Always they’ll lie Sling their mud, justify Try to write history, say they’re right Into he fading dawn light will fall from the skies Always looking for more souls to terrorize Damn your lies! Soar through the sky On Cherubim wings They look at me Think they know everything All alone but now I’m free You can’t buy my loyalty If this is my worst you see What’s so wrong with being me No time to get teary-eyed Damn your wrath and damn your pride At least I get to decide They deserve a darker side Darker side darker side darker side...

Oh man that was such a fun bop. I'd never heard this song before, but I'm a sucker for those edgy bois who have been burned by the authority. Then again I'm also a sucker for fallen angel imagery and metaphorical concepts. Which were abundent in the lyrics and I loved them so much. They also did a great job of getting across dark pit's motivations even to someone who has little knowledge of the game, with the footage from (I'm guessing it's uprising since it isn't the smash stuff XD) the game help and it's subtitles fill in the rest of the conflict from pit's angle. Def gonna listen more. I love your original lyrics
@Lavos again I can't recommend it enough! It's super cheap for a game honestly, and it's not very short either at about a 30 hour average, and if this song didn't prove it the story and ost is awesome! You can judge the gameplay from the clips shown, this is from chapter 9 which is pretty early on too so it gets much more complicated and only has one boss everyone hates^^;;
@@Lucythelittleshitgrmlin hades heart, it's quite late on in the game but infuriating, it's almost universally hated, the rest is preference, like I hate two others but they're just my opinion
Mashed Potato Time and again Pit goes on about wishing for freedom. Dark Pit is that wish given individuality. That's where their similarities end. The mirror of truth forfilled Pit's wish by creating a copy that isn't as easily manipulated as Pit is. I just wish Hades wasn't the villain. In Greek mythology, he isn't nearly as bad as the other gods. Heck, Zeus is worse than Hades.
Mashed Potato I just remembered the Spell of Shattered Sight. Sure it isn't remotely related to Greek Mythology, but it's interesting to think about when projected into the mirror of truth.
Omg I’ve wanted this for so lonnnngg thannnnk youuuuu Edit: As both a Edgy pit main and someone has played his stage too many times I’m so grateful for this ;-;
I love dark pit, he is my favorite character in kid Icarus uprising, when i play the game i literally have to play his chapter again because i love him too much xD
@@Thedragonlover95 it's not that pit doesn't see them, it's that he is so devoted to palutana(think I spelled the name wrong) he won't dwell on those thoughts but dark pit is has no loyalty and calls out everyone on their worse parts and their motives.
They need a new kid Icarus for switch or if Nintendo makes a new consle with a new kid Icarus Probably it's going to be on switch... Maybe 1 like=1 extra chance for a new kid Icarus
Hopefully with more levels in which you can play as Magnus. Maybe a hardmode with no ranged attacks... (Also Dark Pit is literally and figuratively a clone of Pit)
This is amazing simply because it’s clearly inspired by the melody but it doesn’t solely follow the melody. Most fanmade lyrical adaptations of instrumental songs like this don’t get creative outside of the words itself.
Man. You took my most beloved memory of childhood, my favorite song in videogames (aside of KH Ost that's simply heavenly made), and put lyrics to it, and it's gorgeus. I'm crying right now on joy as I sing along
Dark pit's theme is great, and these lyrics fit him perfectly especially 'you can't buy my loyalty' also who else cried when you heard the finale for undertale? EDIT : could you please do a lyrical adaptation of Gaur Plains ?
@@TyBF To be fair, it was the only thing he could do Since he is an angel WITH BLACK WINGS, and he can't fly, common folk could very well attack him thinking he is a fallen angel And out of the affiliation he could gone, The Forces of the Nature are the most free out of them all, and they seem to act only in emergency, plus the fact his and Viridi's interest overlap, it was the best thing he could do
@@ld6906 yes and no. Not all weapons are created equal. Viper blade has poor dash charge shot power, the continuous fire is much weaker, and it's slower. Range is about the same IIRC. Only advantages are melee which isn't needed in Chapter 6 and maybe dash continuous fire for individual small enemies such as Dark Pit but even then I'd be willing to bet Artillery Claws are still better because they're so much faster and it'd be best to use dash charged shots anyway. Curious though, what's your favorite weapon for solo?
As I said, it's MORE your opinion, I never said that it was all your opinion, and people may just be really good at adapting to certain weapons that they like, but what do I know? I'm just a stupid person on RUclips Anyway, I just use whatever I feel like using most of the time, usually Royal Blade or Brawler Claws, but sometimes other stuff depending on the chapter
Great job! I love this theme song and Dark Pit is my favorite character in this game. I just like the evil doppelganger to the main character better than the main character himself/herself. This is one of those cases.
Kid Icarus Uprising was an excellent game. I’ve never played it, but from what I’ve seen, it’s a fine addition to the 3DS library, and if not a sequel, then a port for the Switch. As for the cover, great job! I loved it. I want to see more like this.
I love the line where it says "damn the gods!" And also the title of Darker Side Of Me is so perfect, especially given Dark Pit and how he was created Love this song
Whoever requested this, thank you so much! Also, Man on the Internet? You blew me away not only by taking this request, but also putting 100% amazing lyrics! Can't wait to see you do more.
I love this simply for existing X3 One of my favorite Themes of all time and now it has a vocal version, which rocks and fits Dark Pit really good! Hooray for my Smash Main.
I love this so much. As much as I came to loath that level over it's zodiac shrine (dozens of attempts and finally a guide to figure out what I was missing), this is so GOOOOOOD!!!
This was always an amazing cover, keeping the agenda on freedom in beautiful lyrical form. I was glad to see it return in the Kid Icarus musical bytes!
I come back to this song...a lot, something about it stuck with me from the moment I heard it. There's just this energy to the lyrics that I can feel in my soul. It was also my gateway into being a huge Dark Pit fan.
Oh my goodness...ahhh this is so beautiful, gosh, I love it so much ;~; Kid Icarus: Uprising is one of my very favorite video game titles, and Dark Pit is one of my very favorite characters /ever/. Thank you for this; it really does Pittoo justice, especially after all the hate he gets. ;v;
Wow! I've heard the song from the real game and I think it's beautiful! Now, you took this awesome song and turn it to one of the best versions I've heard! Great job, Alex! Keep doing awesome work!
This is amazing. It sounds so foreign but at the same time fullforce, commited idk how else to put it. It makes you feel and care for the characters. I love Dark Pit's theme, but the lyrics make it even more epic. Thanks so much for the suggestion and for the cover :D

I love how the game’s soundtrack incorporates lyre music mostly because the instrument originated in Greece, where Uprising takes place. Nintendo really did their research on this series and it deserves more popularity.
Into a shining dawn
To fight another day
The world keeps fighting on
and I see black and gray
Before the night falls
I’m gonna take flight
And then I’m gonna find my way
Into a fading dawn
I’ll beat all the odds
The world keeps fighting on
So I scream to the sky
“Damn the Gods”
Soar through the sky
On Cherubim wings
They look at me
Think they know everything
All alone but now I’m free
You can’t buy my loyalty
This is my worst you see
Welcome to the darker side of meeeee
The darker side of meeeeeeeeeeeee
234!
Into a shining dawn
See the darkness of man
I’ll never be a pawn to a fickle lords
plans
You start the attacks
And we pick up your slack
And we’ll never be back where we began
Into the fading dawn
Or so it would seem
You’ll never get along
Goodbye, peaceful dreams
Damn your schemes!
Soar through the sky
On cherubim wings
They look at me
Think they know everything
All alone but now I’m free
You can’t buy my loyalty
If this is my worst you see
Welcome to the darker side of meeeee
The darker side of meeeeeeeeeeeee
Into a shining dawn
Seeing only the night
Forced to prepare for the next target to fight
Always they’ll lie
Sling their mud, justify
Try to write history, say they’re right
Into he fading dawn light will fall from the skies
Always looking for more souls to terrorize
Damn your lies!
Soar through the sky
On Cherubim wings
They look at me
Think they know everything
All alone but now I’m free
You can’t buy my loyalty
If this is my worst you see
What’s so wrong with being me
No time to get teary-eyed
Damn your wrath and damn your pride
At least I get to decide
They deserve a darker side
Darker side darker side darker side...
Welcome to the darker side of meeeee
234!
Before the night falls
I’m gonna take flight
And then I’m gonna find my way
Soar through the sky
On cherubim wings
They look at me
Think they know everything
All alone but now I’m free
You can’t buy my loyalty
Of this is my worst you see
What’s so wrong with being me
Being me being me being me being me
Welcome to the darker side of me
I wrote this by hand so I’d love a like, thx
That was good effort good job
Movie Clips no
There are two other options than this comment:
1. Captions
And I don't know...
2. THE VIDEO ITSELF???
Thank you
sure
“All I see is black and grey”
*Pit stares right into Pitto’s soul*
So dark, so chewy, and yet so malleable! But that sourpuss attitude will give you an ulcer someday.

THE DISRESPECT
When they do this on me I'm Just like
*O O F*
and i thought Ganondorf was the king of disrespect
Dark pit: YEET!!!!!!
Zelda:aaahhhhh!!!
Link:nope
Juan Hernandez Montes Lol little Mac is too dumb to be in smash. He calls that up special “special”? Specially stupid
Oh God disrespect everybody
Oh man that was such a fun bop. I'd never heard this song before, but I'm a sucker for those edgy bois who have been burned by the authority. Then again I'm also a sucker for fallen angel imagery and metaphorical concepts. Which were abundent in the lyrics and I loved them so much. They also did a great job of getting across dark pit's motivations even to someone who has little knowledge of the game, with the footage from (I'm guessing it's uprising since it isn't the smash stuff XD) the game help and it's subtitles fill in the rest of the conflict from pit's angle.
Def gonna listen more. I love your original lyrics
You really should play uprising!^^ it's so underrated and actually amazing, and it's pretty cheap honestly it only cost me £10
@Lavos again I can't recommend it enough! It's super cheap for a game honestly, and it's not very short either at about a 30 hour average, and if this song didn't prove it the story and ost is awesome! You can judge the gameplay from the clips shown, this is from chapter 9 which is pretty early on too so it gets much more complicated and only has one boss everyone hates^^;;
@@curiosityscauldron6334 wich one exactly?
@@Lucythelittleshitgrmlin hades heart, it's quite late on in the game but infuriating, it's almost universally hated, the rest is preference, like I hate two others but they're just my opinion
@@curiosityscauldron6334 oh, yeah, that one. I totally understand. Damn, its been a long time since i played this game. Curse you, broken L/R buttons!
This song is "extra spicy" XD
I'm gonna have to get you to apologize for that horrible pun
Oh my god...
Um UM UM crap now i have to make a joke.... floor icecream?
Yoo, Chugga would be proud 🤣
I've located dark pit.
Where is he?
Ooooowwww!
The song seems more popular than the actual character.
Unfortunate, if you ask me. If people actually paid attention to the game, they'd understand Pittoo's character better.
Mashed Potato Time and again Pit goes on about wishing for freedom. Dark Pit is that wish given individuality. That's where their similarities end. The mirror of truth forfilled Pit's wish by creating a copy that isn't as easily manipulated as Pit is.
I just wish Hades wasn't the villain. In Greek mythology, he isn't nearly as bad as the other gods. Heck, Zeus is worse than Hades.
Mashed Potato I just remembered the Spell of Shattered Sight. Sure it isn't remotely related to Greek Mythology, but it's interesting to think about when projected into the mirror of truth.
Lawrence Gist I always wondered *how* the mirror of truth worked! what would have happened if Pit hadn’t smashed it? Would Pitto still be the same?
I’d like to think it’s because everyone started a Dark Pit hate bandwagon once he got added into Smash.
Omg I’ve wanted this for so lonnnngg thannnnk youuuuu
Edit: As both a Edgy pit main and someone has played his stage too many times I’m so grateful for this ;-;
Lavos yes, as well as wolf and hopefully K rool tbh
Lavos Got to respect the heavy weights, personally hoping the pits Arial buffs help (in theory they should really benefit)
I'll play Pit,Inkling and I'll keep Dark Pit on standby and I'll maybe play Ridley
@@Vioeclipse4448 hey I know this is kinda late but who you main now
@@overland_brew8197 uh haven't played smash much recently
I love dark pit, he is my favorite character in kid Icarus uprising, when i play the game i literally have to play his chapter again because i love him too much xD
Yeah and he's the one that sees flaws in things that not even Pit can see
@@Thedragonlover95 it's not that pit doesn't see them, it's that he is so devoted to palutana(think I spelled the name wrong) he won't dwell on those thoughts but dark pit is has no loyalty and calls out everyone on their worse parts and their motives.
@@thewolface2339 True,true
me too he is amazing in kid icarus and smash bros
They need a new kid Icarus for switch or if Nintendo makes a new consle with a new kid Icarus
Probably it's going to be on switch...
Maybe
1 like=1 extra chance for a new kid Icarus
yeah, and featuring more Pittoo (Dark Pit )
Mia a human or maybe a game for him
WE NEED IT WE NEED IT
Sakurai says no.
Hopefully with more levels in which you can play as Magnus.
Maybe a hardmode with no ranged attacks...
(Also Dark Pit is literally and figuratively a clone of Pit)
PLEASE! FOR THE LOVE OF PALUTENA, GIVE US A DOWNLOAD!
I actually cried...
Thank you for reminding me how beautiful this game is!
The nostalgia man.....
*THE NOSTALGIA*
Nice to see Kid Icarus getting some love in 2018!
correction 2019
Corect its my faveroute game ever
Correction. 2023
…
God I still love this game
@@tiptoncallen3782 well said :D
I love this song so much and these lyrics fit perfectly with Dark Pit’s character.
This is amazing simply because it’s clearly inspired by the melody but it doesn’t solely follow the melody. Most fanmade lyrical adaptations of instrumental songs like this don’t get creative outside of the words itself.
Oh my. I didn't even know that I was in need of a Kid Icarus Uprising Musical
I would pay to see that!
I think that would just ruin everything I like about the game
Same
Yesss!
I thought everyone forgot about this game, so you are now my favorite channel
Nerd Like I like your profile picture
I like both of your profile pics!
wowwww your voice is perfect for dark pit, and this tribute is such a good way to remember this great game
You did so well on this one!!!
I don't think Uprising gets enough credit JUST for its fun and creative dialogue and plot. Thanks for giving it love with this bop.
EXACTLY THIS GAME WAS A HUGE PART OF MY CHILDHOOD
I’m a big fan of Kid Icarus Uprising, and Dark pit’s Theme is one of my favorite songs. This is all I could have asked for. Thank you.

*D A M N T H E G O D S*
Please, say that I'm not the only one who thought of Shadow the Hedgehog after hearing this
I think you mispelled "fuck" there
Steve Pensando *WHERE’S THAT DAMN FOURTH CHAOS EMERALD?*
*DAMN THAT FOURTH CHAOS EMERALD*
You are not even good enough to be my Fake ,Pit.
Well Dark Pit was based on Shadow.
Ehem Nintendo WHERE IS KID ICARUS *uprising* 2
Kid Icarus:Dark Pit Rises.
just wait another 25 years
JustReddaRD x3 Well technically this is Kid Icarus 3
JustReddaRD x3 there’s already 2 kid Icarus games
Don't be impatient... Hades said he had 25 years to figure out how to come back, I bet he's just screwing around because he doesn't need that long.
"Light will fall from the skies"
Me, who knows that this video predates the World of Light reveal: i don't like where this is going
this song is amazing! I think you did a great job on making a song for Pittoo- i mean Dark Pit.
@@paninipancake lol
Juan Hernandez Montes that sounds delicious
i wish that a day we will have kid icarus for the switch, this game really deservers it
Nice to see that people still acknowledge this game.
what an incredible concept. the vocal cadence isn't just the instrumental in word form. actually sounds like a song and not an acapella cover
I've always wanted to play kid Icarus, but was never able to. I really want to get it now
I have a list of games I have to play one day, and it is also on it
Very much worth it. One of the best games I've ever played. If you do get it and wanna play me feel free to ask for my FC.
Smae
Same*
Wyche would recommend great online multiplayer too
This game needs more love.
This is the ONLY version of dark pit’s theme that has lyrics, BLESS THE SOUL WHO REQUESTED THIS!!! I PRAISE YOU
Man. You took my most beloved memory of childhood, my favorite song in videogames (aside of KH Ost that's simply heavenly made), and put lyrics to it, and it's gorgeus. I'm crying right now on joy as I sing along
Time to listen to this on repeat for the next week.
Linkachu710X same
me
I'm joining you
Linkachu710X Exactly!
Finnaly tests is over now I'm will...
SOAR THROUGH SKY ON CHERUBIM WINGS
"All alone but now I'm free" xD

Of course you have to put that kill in slow-motion, and this song is amazing
While he dosent die the boss defeats in this game is always in slow motion
Absolutely amazing as always! Great lyrics, and the emotion in your voice was amazing!
Dark pit's theme is great, and these lyrics fit him perfectly especially 'you can't buy my loyalty' also who else cried when you heard the finale for undertale? EDIT : could you please do a lyrical adaptation of Gaur Plains ?
Viridi could... Now he works for her
@@TyBF To be fair, it was the only thing he could do
Since he is an angel WITH BLACK WINGS, and he can't fly, common folk could very well attack him thinking he is a fallen angel
And out of the affiliation he could gone, The Forces of the Nature are the most free out of them all, and they seem to act only in emergency, plus the fact his and Viridi's interest overlap, it was the best thing he could do
The relatable intake of this is skyrocketing.
I swear to god, after this, I've never related to Dark Pit so hard.
So you’re doom and gloom all the time?
Oh yeah!! This was incredible! I love Kid Icarus Uprising so why should I ignore this video? Very well done!
Only 6.1?
-Wiiiimp!-
Lol right? And Viper Blade is a poor weapon choice. Artillery Claws all the way.
Well, some people are good with certain weapons, so I guess that part is more your opinion
@@ld6906 yes and no. Not all weapons are created equal. Viper blade has poor dash charge shot power, the continuous fire is much weaker, and it's slower. Range is about the same IIRC. Only advantages are melee which isn't needed in Chapter 6 and maybe dash continuous fire for individual small enemies such as Dark Pit but even then I'd be willing to bet Artillery Claws are still better because they're so much faster and it'd be best to use dash charged shots anyway. Curious though, what's your favorite weapon for solo?
As I said, it's MORE your opinion, I never said that it was all your opinion, and people may just be really good at adapting to certain weapons that they like, but what do I know? I'm just a stupid person on RUclips
Anyway, I just use whatever I feel like using most of the time, usually Royal Blade or Brawler Claws, but sometimes other stuff depending on the chapter
Jesus you two XD
Still waiting for a new Kid Icarus game...
Not at e3 😭
2037
We are all just wait another 25 years more
FOXYGAMERVZLA hecc my comment is 1 year old
I’m so happy that this game is still noticed. It’s literally my favorite. Thank you for this beautifulness!!!
Great job! I love this theme song and Dark Pit is my favorite character in this game. I just like the evil doppelganger to the main character better than the main character himself/herself. This is one of those cases.
Woah I saw this like years ago. It was probably my favorite video, Dark Pit will always be one of my favorite video game characters ever.
1:55 can we just appreciate that counter read?
No
Reasons Pit is babey:
1. CUTE
2. WINGSSSS
3. CUTE
4. CUTE
5. CUTE VOICE
6. STRONG BOI
7. LITERALY EVERYTHING ELSE ABOUT HIM
This is amazing and perfectly fits and suits Dark Pit
Really great! You portrayed his "Screw your hypocrisy: I'll go by my rules" attitude amazingly! :D
Never heard of this game or even this character, but boy that song was good. The music was lovely and the lyrics were wonderful as always Alex.
ARstar Light If you've a 3DS I highly recommend it.
@@slateoffate9812 Thanks for the recommendation. I'd love to try but I don't have a 3ds. Would love to get one at some point.
ARstar Light 2DS works too.
@@slateoffate9812 Can't get that either. The only thing I really have is an Xbox One.
ARstar Light Well, um, there are walkthroughs.
Kid Icarus Uprising was an excellent game. I’ve never played it, but from what I’ve seen, it’s a fine addition to the 3DS library, and if not a sequel, then a port for the Switch. As for the cover, great job! I loved it. I want to see more like this.
kid icarus uprising is my favorite game so yes it is excellent
Can we get one for hades?
*HADES*
PIT
P I T
ACHOO
Excuse you. but anyway...
NOW IT’S REALLY ON
Mildly annoyed that there hasn't been a kid icarus game in long enough where one of the best recognised places to get dark pit footage was smash bros
I love the line where it says "damn the gods!"
And also the title of Darker Side Of Me is so perfect, especially given Dark Pit and how he was created
Love this song
Whoever requested this, thank you so much! Also, Man on the Internet? You blew me away not only by taking this request, but also putting 100% amazing lyrics! Can't wait to see you do more.
My friend gave me this game and I'm so haaaaappyyyyy
(Also Dark Pit's voice is amazinggggggg)
Dark Pit is my favorite Smash Character
me too
I hope he sticks around but he if there is a another game of smash he may just be a alt
I love this simply for existing X3 One of my favorite Themes of all time and now it has a vocal version, which rocks and fits Dark Pit really good!
Hooray for my Smash Main.
4:44
Now this is how you finish strong. Damn this is quickly becoming one of my favorite songs.
Wdym
I would *love* to hear a villain song with "Hades' Infernal Theme".
Can I just say that the vocals are absolutely amazing and I have no words
Palutena: I’ve located dark pit
Pit: where is he?
Dark pit: helo
I love this so much. As much as I came to loath that level over it's zodiac shrine (dozens of attempts and finally a guide to figure out what I was missing), this is so GOOOOOOD!!!
This was always an amazing cover, keeping the agenda on freedom in beautiful lyrical form. I was glad to see it return in the Kid Icarus musical bytes!
... *yes*
I love this chapter and Dark Pits theme is one of the best and the lyrics are perfect, you guys never fail to impress me.
The voice even suits Dark Pit! :0 This is amazing!
By far my favorite one-off song you've done so far!
I NEVER LEARNED HOW TO READ!!!!
- Pit
Honestly the best line the game
@@jordinnull8265 the 2 is the joke of brain age
Ugh, pull yourself together. I’ve got you covered.
I come back to this song...a lot, something about it stuck with me from the moment I heard it. There's just this energy to the lyrics that I can feel in my soul.
It was also my gateway into being a huge Dark Pit fan.
"You do my amazing theme justice. Not too bad for a mortal~"
Hiiiiiii! I'm subbed to you xD
“Ahem”
*Pitto*
FAKER
"Can't help I feel sorry for ya!"
- Dark Pit 2014
*OKAY*
The fact that dark pit, mettaton, and dimentio are voiced by the same person is weirdly amazing
Oh my goodness...ahhh this is so beautiful, gosh, I love it so much ;~;
Kid Icarus: Uprising is one of my very favorite video game titles, and Dark Pit is one of my very favorite characters /ever/. Thank you for this; it really does Pittoo justice, especially after all the hate he gets. ;v;
As soon as I saw this, I clicked on the video faster than Lightning Chariot!
Wow! I've heard the song from the real game and I think it's beautiful! Now, you took this awesome song and turn it to one of the best versions I've heard! Great job, Alex! Keep doing awesome work!
Looks like I touched a nerve. Methinks the puppet doth protest too much.
-Me, whenever fighting a Pit player
This is amazing. It sounds so foreign but at the same time fullforce, commited idk how else to put it. It makes you feel and care for the characters. I love Dark Pit's theme, but the lyrics make it even more epic. Thanks so much for the suggestion and for the cover :D
