Always loved how Bowser is done here as well as Super Paper Mario: Hes not fighting for the good or because he turned over a new leaf. Hes the villain and no other villain stands in his way.
I mean, at the start of Bowser's Inside Story he tried to turn over a new leaf and help the Mushroom Kingdom instead of kidnapping the Princess. The only reason this fight is happening is because it didn't go well and Fawful took advantage of that in order to kick off his plans.
"I have conquered galaxies- now I step down to see if a shadow can bleed" I LOVE this line so much. Maybe it's me reading too far into this, but the use of "step down" after his proclamation is super cool. It's like Bowser's saying that this fight is below him. Like he's just taking a breather from his typical work.
Kinda true seeing how Bowser has gotten the power to make his dreams reality (Dream team) and controlled straight up gods to deal with the Mario bros before
You know, there is something ironic about Bowser's lines. Usually, the flames he spits out are a symbol of his wrath and the sheer might that he is capable of. It's a destructive force. Here though? His flames become a beacon. The last bastion of light as the Kingdoms are plunged in Darkness, and they only grow stronger the longer he remains. His fire becomes a symbol of life, and hope.
Luigi: "If you're still in there Fawful, know you still made one mistake!" Mario: "Thinking that we could never find a way to save the day!" Such a cheesy heroic thing to say but that's why I love that line so much.
i think its very funny, Fawful had Bowser eat the bros to get them out of the picture and the "if your still in there" is due to him being absorbed by darkness...the line is so fitting that it loses its cheesiness
When originally fighting this boss, I imagined bowser and dark bowser still fighting while mario and luigi were fighting fawful. I like that I’m not the only person who thinks this
Bowser: are they gone? Dark Bowser: Yeah Bowser: so how was your day? Dark Bowser: pretty good you? Bowser: eh nice Dark Bowser: Good Good, did you hear about Alphadreams near bankrupcy lately Bowser: Yeah kinda sad to be honest Dark Bowser: we get along quite well you know Bowser: yeah i think this is the start of a great friendsh- Dark Bowser: and fawful just got destroyed so AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA *fades out of existence* Bowser: ;(
@@delfinner2212 Please don't remind me of Alphadreams bankrupcy 😭. I still hope nintendo would revive them and give us a creative new Mario-RPG (not this Paper Jam Crap) or at least a Partners in time remake (which was probably skipped because there were too many crative characters).
@@silver_5311 nah it was skipped because they thought it wouldn't sell as well as bis remake would. remember that they were nearly bankrupt at that point.
I still love the opening dialogue. Bowser's telling this dark abomination to just fuck right off - "I admit you make a pretty good villain, BUT I'M EVEN BETTER." The whole song has a wonderful Broadway-musical feel to it, and it's fantastic.
I love the idea that this version goes for a dramatic tone, while Juno’s version goes for a more comedic tone. Both styles encapsulate what the Mario and Luigi series is and what people have come to love about the series
It’s not actually Mario singing there, it’s fawful singing with the bro’s, because he is trying to break away from the dark embrace of the dark star, he only wanted revenge, but the dark star took everything away from him, especially his sanity. But it’s awesome
Caden Morgan Fawful doesn’t actually sing at all. That segment after Mario and Luigi is the Dark Star, which Alex voices. Mario sings as well. Harmonizing is basically 2+ people singing on key. It doesn’t sound as though 2+ people are singing, it sounds like one.
By god, this is... astonishing! Bowser's Inside Story has quite possibly the best final battle in any game. After all, what's a finale without a Bowser appearance? Everything about this just screams "final battle." Dark Bowser's intimidation, the real Bowser's confidence, the Bros' kind-hearted optimism, it's all here. Man on the Internet, you've done this tune the justice it deserves and then some!
Bowser's insults are the best. Some games make him look like an idiot but the ones that focus on how much of a character he is are phenomenal. Super Mario RPG, Super Paper Mario, and this one especially were great at that.
What I'm blown away with is how well this takes its cues from classical Broadway theater. The part at the beginning where the characters transition seamlessly from talking, to riffing, to singing, is straight from traditional Broadway acting. It's something classic Disney films have down to a science, too.
I seriously love how Bowser is so in character during this fight. Sure, he's fighting the bad guy, but not because he needs to save the world or anything. It's because if ANYONE is gonna destroy the world, it can be the one and only Koopa King himself.
Things both versions have- 1. Marios singing in my nightmares. 2. Bowser with a 'looky here' and play ground level insults. 3. A ton of talent that deserves respect.
Always loved this tint of melancholy and irony in the ending after Bowser wins the battle: - I have fallen... To come so far... So far... To lose... - Hey... You just ACTED like me. That doesn't mean you're ME. You're no match for the real deal, original Bowser... - Dark... Even with dark power completed... The unthinkable happened... - Right... You... LOST. Like aside from Bowser saying that Dark copy of him was inferior to him... He also admits that the fact of mimicking exactly him is why his copy lost even with all this power up - because Bowser always loses no matter what he does but why he is better than any knock-off copy? Because he never stops trying. That Koopa King is filled with Determination - you're simply out of luck that his goals never align with yours. Seriously Bowser's Inside Story was an awesome end for a trilogy.
Now I think Paper Jam deserves all criticism for it's weak plot, but I don't think people realize how important Dream Team is plot wise. Bowser is sick of losing, and is sick of playing second fiddle, which is why he betrays Antasma at the end. I really like that. He ditches his more comedic attitude in exchange for a more battle ready personality. Thanks for listening to my TED talk.
Friendly reminder that in the original game, Bowser can solo this fight by outdamaging the emergency heal he does at the end. This shows that he is physically stronger than some of the greatest forces on the planet, and that's WITHOUT the power of grand stars, or whatever Macguffin the game has in it's current incarnation. He is ABSOLUTELY going easy on Mario.
I'd like to think Bowser doesn't know how strong he truly is. If there ever comes a day where he does realize that, Mario wouldn't stand a chance. No amount of Plot Armor would save him.
@@LordTyph the problem I see with that is that it doesn't even seem to take much to kill bowser for mario, but for anyone else it seems incredibly difficult. Like, for mario, he just throws bowser into a landmine 3 times and he gives up, but you look at some of the other games and he takes a LOT more punishment.
@@stocktonlevel1goblin you nailed it. It is somewhat Canon that Mario and bowsers little.... adventures.... lately are more similar to Bluto and Popeye. Both want the girl. Even looking at the original, darker Boeser, he really hasn't changed much. He's not TOTALLY after wonton destruction, he just wants to rule all. And if anyone messes with his kingdom or a kingdom he wants to conquer, may heaven help you. This game I think showed that even bowser, even for selfish reasons, can be a hero. If he couldn't, why would his minons still follow him? Literally they could have sided with Fawful at any time, and many chose to serve their king.
It’s because Bowser knew that the Dark Star was a major threat, so he didn’t hold back, he holds back on Mario and Luigi as they’re humans and that if he were to use his full power, he’d win easily and have nobody to stop him, which we see in movies like Megamind that defeating the hero and having everything you could ever want is boring
I love how at the end, Mario, Luigi, and Bowser all sing in unison. I was hoping for that and you delivered. Well done, Alex! Another wonderful cover and another wonderful interpretation to this song.
Oh man, I’m gonna have the same problem with this song that I have Megalovania with lyrics and wronglovania, I’m gonna be singing one to myself and then randomly switch to the other mid chorus.
I think the most beautiful thing about this fight is how Bowser comes into it. There’s no hesitation, no pause for reprisal, none of that. Bowser simply asks if the Dark Star is done running, and then in retorsion to his ultimate reveal of power simply exclaims “SO YOU VANISH!!”. Bowser never once doubts his ability to win during these fights. Or ANY fight in the game for that matter. And that level of confidence is what makes him so dangerous, wether he’s trying to kidnap Princess Peach, or defend the kingdom from an all powerful darkness. All hail the Koopa King.
Whenever a mario game has Bowser and the Bros against a worldly evil it just really hits home the idea that Bowser isnt *the* bad guy, hes not a good guy, but i mean, you cant rule over the world if there's no world left
You know, it's really amazing how this cover and Juno's cover are both spectacular in their own ways. I think the main difference is probably in the stories they tell - with Juno, his cover is a lot more one-sided. Bowser spits straight fire (both literally and metaphorically) the entire song while the Dark Star says nothing. That, combined with Juno's footage showing Bowser pulling off all the action commands perfectly, gives the impression that he's essentially bulldozing through all of Dark Bowser's bullshit, which...honestly? That is extremely cathartic, especially if you know what Bowser had to go through beforehand. It feels like a grand victory for both the characters and the viewers. Meanwhile, this cover feels more like a clash of titans - this time around, the Dark Star DOES sing, and its lyrics are in a similar vein to that of Dark Samus in Brinstar Depths - essentially just telling Bowser and the bros that they cannot hope to beat it, it's beyond their comprehension, give up and let their world be consumed...and Bowser's response is to give it the middle finger and tell it it's going to make it bleed. And unlike Juno's cover, the footage shows Bowser actually struggling and making mistakes, so Bowser still having that confidence here is just as awesome as when he was bulldozing through Dark Bowser in Juno's cover. so, yeah, good job
I feel like it could also be said that the two versions can represent a version of the game each. This one, the original ds version, and junos, the 3ds remake. Playing the ds version when it came out, players going in blind would most definitely get hit a lot, but that far into the game, it's likely that they have gotten good enough at it to stand a chance against dark bowser. On the other side, players who remember dark bowsers patterns from the original have a chance of beating the 3ds versions boss fight almost flawlessly, and that's potentially even without the use of the "easy mode", which was not included in the ds version. And, heck, the music track was originally called "In the final" as this video is titled, and they changed it to "The grand finale" when the 3ds version came around, which is the name juno went with when he made his lyrical adaptation.
@@paxgallery6646 Amazing. Also I love how this one focuses a lot more on "stars" and cosmic mentions in its lyrics while Juno's a lot like spitting fire, and stars are giant balls of fire.
I love how, during this entire time, Bowser isn't scared or intimidated in the slightest, he's just playing along with this cute attempt of trying to be him.
Just imagine.. You're a toad walking around Toad Town then a dark storm starts. And you see the guy who's been terrorising your kingdom for years on top of a castle, fighting a dark version of himself, while they are singing a duet and very faintly you can hear the two heroes of your kingdom singing to themselves
Incredible. Hearing Bowser say "Not Today" to kick off the music gave me chills. You did an incredible job keeping the mood with the lyrics. Some people would call it cringe to give lyrics to a video game track, but I like to see such passion and attention put into this track. Thank you, and if you ever make more serious final boss tracks like this for anything it would be too good!
I think giving lyrics to video game tracks is a cool idea. I know this is way off topic, but Roar of the Jungle Dragon (Terraria calamity mod) is a great example of that.
The line: “if you’re still in there fawful know you still made one mistake…” is so powerful The implied connection between them is honestly poetic in a way seeing how fawful could actually have been a good person but, power corrupts So
How the hell was Fawful a good guy when he littearly wanted the power of dark star for himself and he even took over peach 's castle so I am actually glad that he died he deserved it
Everyone’s trash talking marios performance, when honestly I think he sounded AMAZING. Like seriously, the part where he gave his entire heart and soul to “We will bring the light back to all” actually gave me chills. Like seriously, so damn good
For some reason when I heard “we will bring the light” I thought that was Dark Fawful singing. At that part it kinda sounded like a voice for Fawful’s laugh.
I think it’s because Luigi drowns him out a bit. Might’ve been better to tone down Luigi slightly, so Mario could’ve been heard more clearly. Otherwise, it seemed he had no presence.
The DS version of this game will always have a very special place in my heart, because it's the first game I can remember that I really paid attention to the soundtrack of, completed 100%, and went through again just to experience everything all over
This game I probably put in over 1000 hours and 3 playthroughs (screw the Junker) before I was able to get too dark bowser (and collectibles). Maxing the bros' attacks, redefeating bosses, and collecting every single bean, mush ball, and item in the game was hard enough but nothing could compare to the music. It hit me then and there when I finally got too dark bowser that this was the end of my 6-year journey for this unparalleled game and it left me with emptiness. I do not have my DS or 3DS anymore so I can not relive the glory days with my original BIS copy but it is probably the best RPG I have ever played. I may have all the M&L games and over 80 DS-compatible games, but I will never sell my copy of BIS (90 dollars as of writing this for the game alone) because of the magic and perseverance it reminds me of.
The Dark Star, a very powerful object that literally stole DNA, teams up with Fawful, an evil genius mastermind, and then some turtle that ate 2 plumbers comes along and is like "Wanna die?"
The Mario and Luigi series is easilly the best incarnation of the series. Mario and Luigi's personalities are on full show, and it highlights that while both Bros are heroes in their own right, they still need one another to truly succeed. Also Mario's "We will bring the light, back to all" was godlike, he belts that out at the top of his lungs like he really means it. Easilly the best Mario performance I've heard outside of Charles Martinet himself.
@@gmayzes7268 It can't be anyone else. Look in the credits, it's just Mario, Luigi, Bowser and Dark Bowser as listed characters. Also why would Starlow talk in an Italian accent?
@qpepThe i kno they went bankrupt, what i meant was nintendo themselves or a different company take up the mario and luigi torch in alphadream's absence
"I've conquered galaxies. Now I've stepped down to see, If a shadow can bleed!" Behold! The King of Koopas! The dragon of the Mushroom Kingdom! One who will not bow to those who threaten his reign! His ambitions dwarfed only by his iron will and determination! Look on, and meet your despair, as you fight not some hapless wanderer, nor craven buffoon, but the future ruler of all that he sees! And his name, is BOWSER! And you. Will. FALL!
Lyrics: DS: Let your hopes be blown away The Dark Star will shine And annihilite the day Inside the hearts of man I see the darkness beckoning You deal with a power Far beyond you reckoning Drown in shadow black as tar Under blakest light! Under darkest stars! I will rise! And the stars will fall! All who dare to stand Shall be made to crawl! And in the final hour of fading light Your dreams of peace cast aside Scattered like dust in the night And in the final hour, my star will shine Starlight and powers aligned In the final fight! Inside the hearts of man I see the darkness beckoning You deal with a power Far beyond your reckoning B: Well lookie here! It's even had a little speech prepared! You done with monologues? Cause it's my turn! You should be scared! Took my style? Well, I'm impressed! I guess copycats want to copy the best! But I got no patience For imposters trying to take the throne! I AM THE KOOPA KING! You dare defy? I break your bones! I have conquered galaxies Now I've stepped down to see If a shadow can bleed! Koopa King will strike you down I'll put you back in the ground Learn why I wear the crown! And in the final hour of fading light No one can challenge my might! Not while the fire burns bright! And in the final hour my star will shine Starlight and powers aligned In the final fight! What's wrong there, critter? Are you just a little parasite? Hope you don’t mind That fighting tends to build an appetite! M: Luigi, look, the core! L: Hey, this is our chance Mario! ML: Let's finish off this star You ready, bro? Let's-a go! In the journey we've come far And now here we are Now you see superstars L: If you're still in there, Fawful, Know you still made one mistake M: Thinking that we could never Find a way to save the day ML: We will hold our hammers high Watch a star fall As we soar through the sky We will rise! Brothers hand in hand! We will never crawl! And here we stand! And in the final hour of fading light Dreams of peace taking flight Pushing back the night And in the final hour, our star will shine! Starlight and powers aligned In the final fight! DS: Inside the hearts of man I see the darkness beckoning B: You are a fool To try and stand aganist the Koopa King! ML: To save the kingdom Fight for everyone and everything MLB: The finale approaches Now a victory we'll sing ML: In the journey we've come far And now here we are Now you see superstars DS: Inside the hearts of man I see darkness beckoning You deal with a power Far beyond your reckoning DSB: Dreams in darkness crash and burn Now it's time you learn B: Now it's my turn Everyone: We will rise And the stars will fall ML: We will bring the light back to all! MLB: And in the final hour of fading light Stand tall aganist the night While our hopes burn bright! And in the final hour our star will shine Starlight and powers aligned In the final fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight! DS - Dark Star B - Bowser M - Mario L - Luigi If wrote together it means XXX sing together
I never realized how powerful the line “I will put you back in the ground was” because not only is it a great insult, it also references how the dark star was sealed underground until it was woken up by fawful
No, I’m not sure what you are thinking of but it was originally found underground and the toads dug it up, then it caused chaos to the mushroom kingdom the star sprites sealed it away underground in a safer location until fawful found it and woke it up
This is such a beautiful, dramatic telling of the climax of the game, if not ALL m&l games. In verse 1, with dark bowser: his portraying of not only a crazed, overwhelmingly powerful foe is perfect for his role against bowser, but he doesn't just sound like a "it's hopeless, give up" monologue. He actively challenges them with lines such as "scattered like dust in the night" like how hope is already gone for all but the final brigade of bowser and bros. Verse 2: Bowser cutting off his counterpart is perfect. His lines portray perfect how immensely powerful he is, such as "now i step down to see, if a shadow can bleed". Him getting legitimately angry with his line of "i am the koopa king" shows his overwhelming fury, and the extent of his trust in his allies to guide and support him in time of need. He's not just a king; he is THE king, and nobody can dare challenge him and survive. Verse 3: The Mario Bros. I LOVE how Luigi leads the lyrics, whilst Mario follows up on it. Similar to M&L Dream Team, it shows how Luigi has found his confidence again, and the bros are throwing everything on the line. In contrast to bowser's approach of domination, the bros' lyrics centers more around hope, that they "will never crawl, and here we stand". Their will and power in tandem, in their final stand for all they know and cherish about the world, for all the light in it; their "starlight and powers combined." Verse 4: In The Final. Bowser's fury now feels like an overwhelming, albeit blunt, heroism. He understands what needs to be done, whether selfishly or not, and feels as if he's turned that rage into motivation and power for the first time. The sync with him and the mario bros just drives it deeper; all three of them are no longer enemies. They are no longer separate. They finally understand one another, and nothing can separate that bond, to drive away the darkness and "bring the light back to all."
I also really love how Bowser takes over the Dark Star's chorus in Verse 4. It really feels like he's shoving the Dark Star aside and saying "Hey! You're not the villain of the Mario games, I AM!"
3:44 This is the best part, no questions asked. Luigi’s voice sounds really serious and he is basically saying that Fawful made a grave error which was that the Mario Brothers always find a way to save the day. He also asked if he was still in there. Fawful has fused with the dark star, absorbed DNAs, been even corrupted by his own thoughts and goals and so he is way different to the first time we encounter him back in SuperStar Saga (Or technically Partners in Time because the baby brothers can talk to him while they are… well babies)
Bowser may be a literal got trying to kidnap one person but just remember he is a dumbass and that is why he loses WHO THE HELL GIVES THEIR ENEMY A WAY TO KILL THEM
I *really* like how Bowser's voice is slightly distorted later into the song, almost as if Dark Bowser had some "good" in him still and he's giving in to the pressure. Dark Bowser is just Bowser's corrupted DNA so it makes sense that Dark Bowser would have the ability to swap sides.
If the devs behind the new game (which i think some old AlphaDream devs are working there) achieves to make a story and a final boss like the BIS or even better mario and luigi will be so LITERALLY back
I originally thought that they hadn’t done a part for Fawful because it would’ve made the song too long and clashed with the lyrics, but I just realized the importance of him staying quiet: it’s meant to show how far he’s really descended. There’s still remains, shadows, of the cunning Beanish genius who managed to outplay both the Mario. Bros. and the King of the Koopas, but it’s not shining on through as you’d likely expect him too. Fawful’s finally obtained his dark power, at the cost of his prized minion freezing to death from something that HE had a hand in and now has lost the remaining bits of sanity when he became fused with the Dark Star Core, into the horrid “little” bug he is now. There’s no Engrish taunts or “Mustard of Doom” being screamed in a fashion we could find charming or comical: We’re seeing nothing but his demented rage. He might’ve been a crazed, malicious genius before but here? This is the final stand of a broken, insane remains of a man who’s desperately trying to finish his quest and bring upon a happy ending-especially if it means the end of the three pains that’ve plagued him for YEARS now and brought not just his plans crumbling to pieces, but his beloved and departed mistress’ as well... (Also, the reason I wrote this was because Fawful, himself, wasn’t specifically credited in the description or video haha.) (Also this song is super good and god do I love this song)
Funnily enough, in both this version and Juno's version of the song, Luigi points this out, and at the same parts of the song: "If you're still in there, Fawful, know you still made one mistake"/"The darkness went straight to your head, you've lost who you are, Fawful"
Well, beloved isn't a good description. If you played the bowsers minions in the remaster of Superstar saga, he actually planned to betray her via the mechawful factory in the final battle
Well, don’t jump to conclusions just yet. Yeah AlphaDream may have gone bankrupt, but Nintendo hasn’t. They might find a way to revive the series and possibly get another company to help them in lieu of AlphaDream.
Entirely possible, but look at Punch-Out. Nintendo has every right to continue the series on their own, they just aren't for whatever reason. Because of that, I find it highly unlikely Nintendo will continue w/ M&L.
I've listened to this so many times, and I've only just realized the Bros.' "We will never crawl, and here we stand!" is a response to the Dark Star's "All who dare to stand, shall be made to crawl!"
I got my first video game ever when I was 4-5. It was a Nintendo DS, with Mario and Luigi, Bowser’s inside story on it. I loved it so much, playing it all the time, on car rides, before bed, even at school. The only issue was that I was so young, I could barely advance in the game at all, eventually getting completely stuck in the wiggler forest between the annoying carrot mini game, and the 2 boss fights that I unknowingly was severely under-leveled for. Slowly, I stopped playing the game bit by bit, until it got to the point I only ever played it on long road trips. Fast forward several years, to 2020, around March. By this point I had a 3DS, and even it was worn out. Somewhere on RUclips, I watched a few videos about the Mario and Luigi franchise. I then was spoiled on some of the boss fights and music later in the game. Seeing these gave me tons of nostalgia, but also determination, to fight all of these battles myself. I dug out my old 3DS and game cartridge which the 3DS could only barely read because it was so worn out. I started the game, almost tearing up at how much I missed the cheery menu music. Over the next week or 2 I sped through the game with my greatly improved timing and problem solving capabilities. I finally beat dark bowser, which was one of the best bosses I’ve ever fought ccand completed the game, 10 years later. As I watched the credits roll, I cried. Between 2020 and my dad fighting cancer, this was probably the happiest I had been in a long time. This song brought back a lot of the memories of that day, and I am very grateful for that. Thank you Update: not completely sure since the doctors weren’t clear but my dad is cancer free. Thank you all for the support!
“Inside the hearts of man I see the darkness beckoning, You deal with a power far beyond your reckoning.” Oh. *My god.* First of all, the voice effect on Dark Bowser and the almost opera-like tone gave me the chills. He sounds almost more sophisticated than Bowser, like he possesses a forbidden knowledge and cunning. But the best part in my opinion is that toward the end of the song, when that line is repeated, Dark Bowser sounds... afraid... Like it knows it’s losing. So yeah. Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.
"I have conquered galaxies now I've stepped down to see... If a shadow can bleed." "You'll learn why I wear the crown." Dayum Bowser has some really badass lines
Though to be fair, Bowser didn't even know that Mario & Luigi were inside his body during the entire game. He finds out after Dark Bowser and Fawful are defeated.
I can't believe this cover is over 3 years old. You guys at MOTI keep improving year by year, but goddamn you were always amazing!! Alex, Kyle, and Juno all go so well together as Bowser and the Bros and those transitions with the piano were probably the best parts. I especially love the transition from the Dark Bowser battle to the Dark Core battle at 3:15 where Bowser signs as he sucks in the core, and the Bros singing as they get ready to fight! All the parts at pieced together amazingly! What an awesome channel.
I can only imagine Bowser awkwardly trying to start a conversation to pass time B: So... You saw the game last saturday? DB: I was technically born today. B: Oh yeah. Huh... Hows the children? DB: I dont really know what that is. B: Oh. Um... Nice... Weather? DB: Stop.
@@guilhermesantinisforza7677 B: Hey uhh.... How do you play chess so well? DB: I took your chess DNA... B: Uhhh... Neat? DB: ... B: So uhh.... What now? DB: We wait untill the humans are done in your chest... B: Ok?
I’m so into the Mario series as a whole. Nintendo got me to love this with other of their popular franchises as well. I always have tears when playing their games with moments like these. The Mario and Luigi part of this video is how I would imagine how they will sing and that made me cry, it sounded wonderful. Thank you Nintendo for the memories.
~~~~~~~~ Lyrics ~~~~~~~~~ Dark bowser: Let your hopes be blown away The dark star will shine and annihilate the day Inside the hearts of man I see a darkness beckoning You deal with a power Far beyond your reckoning Drown in shadow black as tar Under blackest light Under darkest stars I will rise And the stars will fall All who dare to stand Shall be made to crawl And in the final hour of fading light, Your dreams of peace cast aside Scattered like dust in the night And in the final hour my star will shine Starlight and powers aligned In the final fight Inside the hearts of man I see the darkness beckoning You deal with a power far beyond your reckoning- Bowser: - Well lookie here, It’s even had a little speech prepared You done with monologues? ‘Cause it’s my turn, you should be scared Took my style? Well I’m impressed I guess copycats want to copy the best. But I’ve got no patience for imposters trying to take the throne I am the Koopa King! You dare defy? I break your bones! I have conquered galaxies Now I’ve stepped down to see If a shadow Can bleed Koopa king Will strike you down I’ll put you back in the ground Learn why I wear the crown! And in the final hour of fading light No one can challenge my might Not while the fire burns bright And in the final hour My star will shine Starlight and powers aligned In the final fight! What’s wrong there, critter? Are you just a little parasite? Hope you don’t mind But fighting tends to build an appetite Mario and Luigi: Luigi, look at the core! Hey, this is our chance, Mario! Let’s finish off this star! You ready, bro? Let’s’a’go! In the journey We’ve come far, And now here we are. Now you see the superstars! If you’re still in there, Fawful, Know you still made one mistake, Thinking that we could never find a way to save the day! We will hold our hammers high Watch a star fall As we soar Through the sky! We will rise brothers hand in hand We will never crawl And here we stand And in the final hour of fading light Dreams of peace taking flight Pushing back the night And in the final hour Our star will shine Starlight and powers aligned In the final fight Dark Bowser, Bowser: Inside the hearts of man I see the darkness beckoning. You are a fool to try And stand against the Koopa king Mario and Luigi, all: To save the kingdoms Fight for everyone and everything The finale approaches Now a victory we’ll sing Mari and Luigi: In the journey We’ve come far And now here we are Now you see the superstars Dark bowser: Inside the hearts of man I see the darkness beckoning You deal with a power Far beyond your reckoning Bowser, Dark Bowser: Dreams in darkness Crash and burn Now it’s time you learn Now it’s my turn Mario and Luigi: We will rise And the stars will fall We will bring the light Back to all Mario and Luigi, Bowser: And in the final hour Of fading light Stand tall against the night While our hopes burn bright And in the final hour Our star will shine Starlight and powers aligned In the final fight
I love how by the end you hear verses from everyone through the song. Especially personally my favorite, when Luigi and the Dark Star sing together, Luigi simply goes "We will rise/And the star will fall" referring to the Dark Star itself, but the Dark Star uses the plural of stars cause of the stars in the night that give light, which it wants to extinguish for good.
I like the duet between Bowser and Dark Bowser in this song, because it's a meditation on the meaning of siding with evil over overt annihilation; I like Mario and Luigi's duet because it's about good fighting even when it seems hopeless. This song gives me chills every time I listen and I find myself keep coming back.
I just realized something about the lyrics. Dark Bowser said that “Inside the hearts of man I see the darkness beckoning.” Yet his opponent is a Koopa king with two men, a Star Sprite and various Toads inside his body. And those two men are none other than the heroes of the Mushroom Kingdom. The same heroes that had already faced the Dark Star in battle... not to mention their fights with Fawful in the Beanbean Kingdom. Tell me what you think, but I feel that was one reason Dark Bowser lost. He was facing a creature for whom persistence was second nature... and two beings of strength and courage that were undoubtedly more capable than he had imagined. Even the darkest night cannot completely put out a fire that refuses to die.
i think that is the SOUL reason why not only dark bowser NOT ONLY the dark star (twice) BUT all that and fawful as well... bowser may look evil but he's not he's just a father and a hero on the inside (and im not talking about mario and luigi) he may hate the plumbers but we all see through that bad guy act he's just a (somewhat) caring father, a strong and determined koopa with a bright fire inside his soul... and a true hero in all our hearts...
*"ALL WHO DARE TO STAND, SHALL BE MADE TO CRAWL!"* "We will never crawl, and here we stand!" Absolute genius. But for real, the final verse is absolute gold. Everyone got their own verse, but in the final verse, it's a ballad in direct defiance of an eldritch evil. Something whose true power is incomprehensible. This may well be their only chance to stop it, and yet Mario, Luigi, even Bowser never once have a hint of doubt in their voice as they roar in opposition of a veritable God. And they _win._
YES. This is (literally) the stuff of legend, and only makes me more excited about things like DELTARUNE. Light and Dark (and Grey) exist in everyone, which is why absolute darkness never truly "wins," and the only way to really WIN is to accept loss--and each other. Even if that means punching an eldritch God in the goddamn face! 😆😎💖
Dark Bowser: I am the embodiment of the eternal, bottomless void called darkness. I hunger for destruction and stand before a feast. Mario and Luigi: We're here fighting for our lives to protect everything and everyone we hold dear. That gives us the strength to fight on despite the odds Bowser: I am the Koopa King, I am the greatest, and you WISH you were as awesome as me!

Now the Inside Story brings the pain! M&L: Let’s-a-go, here comes the dark Let’s-a beat this guy, inside the Koopa monarch! L: Two kingdoms threatened by the swirling storm high up above M: Two working plumbers here to save the world that we love! *M&L: We will hold our hammers high* *Watch a star fall, as we soar through the sky!* *We will rise, hammers hand in hand* *We will never crawl, and here we stand!* It’s time to bring the Grand Finale From two adventures ago, back when we first traded blows *And In The Final hour our star will shine* *Starlight and powers aligned, In The Final fight!* L: The darkness went straight to your head, you’ve lost who you are Fawful And now we’ve got to stop you before you do something awful! M: So just stand still, cuz here we come, our mallets swinging faster Let’s-a make this quick, I’ve-a got a date with Princess Peach right after! *M&L: In this journey we’ve come far* *And now here we are, now you see: Superstars!* *DS: Inside the hearts of man I see the darkness beckoning* *You deal with a power far beyond your reckoning* *B&DS: Dreams in darkness crash and burn* *Now it's time you learn (B:) Now it's my turn* *Everyone: We will rise, and the stars will fall* *ML: We will bring the light back to all!* *MLB: And in the final hour of fading light* B: The Dark Star was misaligned And I’ve trounced you in rhyme, IT’S BOWSER TIME! MLB: It’s time to bring the Grand Finale *Starlight and powers aligned, In The Final fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight!*

Let's see how many times I can loop this song IT SLAPS HARRRRRD You guys did a outstanding job with this. The voice acting is crisp like it actually just popped out the game. The art are sleek as well. I also love all the synchronizing it's amazing.
Don't make me tap the sign
[MULTIPLE INTERPRETATIONS OF THE SAME VIDEO GAME SONG WITH LYRICS CAN COEXIST]
Also check who made the art and voiced Luigi before you go "oOOoOOOoH YoU sToLE"
When i saw this i thought that it will be like the one you did but it's very different and cool. (Sorry for the bad english)
lmao
So the art and Luigi voice is you? Ok
Nice crossover guys. Goes to show that people can make different versions of things but give the chance to add your own flair to it.

DM: "you can't just punch your way out of every encounter."

@@SenorSwirls ah i see
Can I at least punch my way out of the final boss?

Always loved how Bowser is done here as well as Super Paper Mario: Hes not fighting for the good or because he turned over a new leaf. Hes the villain and no other villain stands in his way.
In all 3 RPGs Bowser had the "Nobody can conquer this land but me"
Edit: I do mean Mario RPG
Paper Mario
Mario & Luigi
Can't rule a kingdom if there's no kingdom to rule is always how I interpreted it
@@switchblade6 That was his exact excuse in Super Paper Mario. And what happened to his minions.
I mean, at the start of Bowser's Inside Story he tried to turn over a new leaf and help the Mushroom Kingdom instead of kidnapping the Princess. The only reason this fight is happening is because it didn't go well and Fawful took advantage of that in order to kick off his plans.
I mean the enemy of my enemy is my friend
Alphadreams last game was a Bowser's inside story remake. *Meaning, it truly was a grand finale.*
Hell yeah
Yes
I really hope Nintendo sees all the hype surrounding this game and brings Alphadream back ;_;
Aww they aren't making anymore?
Treygito Blue They went bankrupt, sadly.
"I have conquered galaxies- now I step down to see if a shadow can bleed"
I LOVE this line so much. Maybe it's me reading too far into this, but the use of "step down" after his proclamation is super cool. It's like Bowser's saying that this fight is below him. Like he's just taking a breather from his typical work.
Bowser: By all rights, this is a waste of my time. But you're an uppity little vermin, so I wanna see what you look like in pain
Kinda true seeing how Bowser has gotten the power to make his dreams reality
(Dream team) and controlled straight up gods to deal with the Mario bros before
Fr he has conquered galaxies.
I interpreted this as well
@@monkeycrimson6087 Yo, did he? When?
You know, there is something ironic about Bowser's lines.
Usually, the flames he spits out are a symbol of his wrath and the sheer might that he is capable of. It's a destructive force.
Here though?
His flames become a beacon. The last bastion of light as the Kingdoms are plunged in Darkness, and they only grow stronger the longer he remains. His fire becomes a symbol of life, and hope.
Cool
G
Now THAT is what i call... Pretty epic!
*and that light shall be my victory against the final threat*
I never thought of it like that
Luigi: "If you're still in there Fawful, know you still made one mistake!"
Mario: "Thinking that we could never find a way to save the day!"
Such a cheesy heroic thing to say but that's why I love that line so much.
Despite it being a cheesy thing to say, I feel Mario and Luigi would say something like that. Still pretty neat
2DS game again
Marios voice cracks when he says that
i think its very funny, Fawful had Bowser eat the bros to get them out of the picture
and the "if your still in there" is due to him being absorbed by darkness...the line is so fitting that it loses its cheesiness
I tought luigi said bufalo
When originally fighting this boss, I imagined bowser and dark bowser still fighting while mario and luigi were fighting fawful. I like that I’m not the only person who thinks this
Well it only makes sense. Just because Bowser inhaled Fawful doesn't mean Dark Bowser suddenly stopped fighting him.
SAME
Bowser: are they gone?
Dark Bowser: Yeah
Bowser: so how was your day?
Dark Bowser: pretty good you?
Bowser: eh nice
Dark Bowser: Good Good, did you hear about Alphadreams near bankrupcy lately
Bowser: Yeah kinda sad to be honest
Dark Bowser: we get along quite well you know
Bowser: yeah i think this is the start of a great friendsh-
Dark Bowser: and fawful just got destroyed so AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA *fades out of existence*
Bowser: ;(
@@delfinner2212 Please don't remind me of Alphadreams bankrupcy 😭. I still hope nintendo would revive them and give us a creative new Mario-RPG (not this Paper Jam Crap) or at least a Partners in time remake (which was probably skipped because there were too many crative characters).
@@silver_5311 nah it was skipped because they thought it wouldn't sell as well as bis remake would. remember that they were nearly bankrupt at that point.
I still love the opening dialogue. Bowser's telling this dark abomination to just fuck right off - "I admit you make a pretty good villain, BUT I'M EVEN BETTER." The whole song has a wonderful Broadway-musical feel to it, and it's fantastic.
"Damn, sick atmosphere. Watch me beat your ass to it."

Yes absolutely, I loved this game

😅
I still can’t get over how harmonized Mario and Luigi are for the entirety of this song
Imakuni_BoomAtack In one part “we will bring back the light” Mario is so high pitched and it legit throws me off
They sound so good together!
It’s not actually Mario singing there, it’s fawful singing with the bro’s, because he is trying to break away from the dark embrace of the dark star, he only wanted revenge, but the dark star took everything away from him, especially his sanity. But it’s awesome
Caden Morgan it is Mario tho... no ones cast as fawful
Caden Morgan Fawful doesn’t actually sing at all. That segment after Mario and Luigi is the Dark Star, which Alex voices. Mario sings as well. Harmonizing is basically 2+ people singing on key. It doesn’t sound as though 2+ people are singing, it sounds like one.
By god, this is... astonishing! Bowser's Inside Story has quite possibly the best final battle in any game. After all, what's a finale without a Bowser appearance? Everything about this just screams "final battle." Dark Bowser's intimidation, the real Bowser's confidence, the Bros' kind-hearted optimism, it's all here. Man on the Internet, you've done this tune the justice it deserves and then some!

Goddamnit that fits so well
Bowser's insults are the best. Some games make him look like an idiot but the ones that focus on how much of a character he is are phenomenal. Super Mario RPG, Super Paper Mario, and this one especially were great at that.
What I'm blown away with is how well this takes its cues from classical Broadway theater. The part at the beginning where the characters transition seamlessly from talking, to riffing, to singing, is straight from traditional Broadway acting. It's something classic Disney films have down to a science, too.
I seriously love how Bowser is so in character during this fight. Sure, he's fighting the bad guy, but not because he needs to save the world or anything. It's because if ANYONE is gonna destroy the world, it can be the one and only Koopa King himself.
Not destroy: CONQUER
And what will be left to conquer if it gets destroyed?! NOT ON HIS WATCH [“This kingdom is all mine! So YOU vanish!”]
@@droideka1890 You are right, but still, Bowser wouldn't let this guy destroy the world
Bowser needs to show him anyone who thinks that they are better than him he is the best “learn why I wear the crown”
No, he can't conquer is everything is destroyed
“There is no good or bad, Just rulers and other rulers, with motives different”
Things both versions have-
1. Marios singing in my nightmares.
2. Bowser with a 'looky here' and play ground level insults.
3. A ton of talent that deserves respect.
I thought I was the only one who noticed "well looky here"
Mario’s singing in this was better than Juno’s version.
he sounded like micky mause
At least Juno is the perfect luigi tho
I don't hear anything wrong with this Mario's voice though, he voices the character so well AND sings fantastically, but opinions are opinions
Always loved this tint of melancholy and irony in the ending after Bowser wins the battle:
- I have fallen... To come so far... So far... To lose...
- Hey... You just ACTED like me. That doesn't mean you're ME. You're no match for the real deal, original Bowser...
- Dark... Even with dark power completed... The unthinkable happened...
- Right... You... LOST.
Like aside from Bowser saying that Dark copy of him was inferior to him... He also admits that the fact of mimicking exactly him is why his copy lost even with all this power up - because Bowser always loses no matter what he does but why he is better than any knock-off copy? Because he never stops trying. That Koopa King is filled with Determination - you're simply out of luck that his goals never align with yours.
Seriously Bowser's Inside Story was an awesome end for a trilogy.
Now I think Paper Jam deserves all criticism for it's weak plot, but I don't think people realize how important Dream Team is plot wise. Bowser is sick of losing, and is sick of playing second fiddle, which is why he betrays Antasma at the end. I really like that. He ditches his more comedic attitude in exchange for a more battle ready personality.
Thanks for listening to my TED talk.
@@Proprietor11 exactly. Dream team is underappreciated, especially as a sequel to BIS
You can't give up now
Bowser! Stay determined.
D Booth imo dream team IS better than BiS, but it’s betterness is less than its predecessor compared to how much better BiS is than partners in time
@@CoppermineTypeK a soul for a soul
Friendly reminder that in the original game, Bowser can solo this fight by outdamaging the emergency heal he does at the end. This shows that he is physically stronger than some of the greatest forces on the planet, and that's WITHOUT the power of grand stars, or whatever Macguffin the game has in it's current incarnation.
He is ABSOLUTELY going easy on Mario.
I'd like to think Bowser doesn't know how strong he truly is.
If there ever comes a day where he does realize that, Mario wouldn't stand a chance. No amount of Plot Armor would save him.
No, this is just a similar case to Eggman/Robotnik.
We think them weak simply because the hero is THAT GOOD. They only make it look easy
@@LordTyph the problem I see with that is that it doesn't even seem to take much to kill bowser for mario, but for anyone else it seems incredibly difficult. Like, for mario, he just throws bowser into a landmine 3 times and he gives up, but you look at some of the other games and he takes a LOT more punishment.

To Bowser its all fun and games but then some one else tries to mess with the kingdom and he's like YOU PICKED THE WRONG HOUSE FOOL
@@stocktonlevel1goblin you nailed it. It is somewhat Canon that Mario and bowsers little.... adventures.... lately are more similar to Bluto and Popeye. Both want the girl.
Even looking at the original, darker Boeser, he really hasn't changed much. He's not TOTALLY after wonton destruction, he just wants to rule all. And if anyone messes with his kingdom or a kingdom he wants to conquer, may heaven help you.
This game I think showed that even bowser, even for selfish reasons, can be a hero. If he couldn't, why would his minons still follow him? Literally they could have sided with Fawful at any time, and many chose to serve their king.
It’s because Bowser knew that the Dark Star was a major threat, so he didn’t hold back, he holds back on Mario and Luigi as they’re humans and that if he were to use his full power, he’d win easily and have nobody to stop him, which we see in movies like Megamind that defeating the hero and having everything you could ever want is boring
I love how at the end, Mario, Luigi, and Bowser all sing in unison. I was hoping for that and you delivered. Well done, Alex! Another wonderful cover and another wonderful interpretation to this song.
That harmony of voices is such a satisfying thing to listen to for me

I think the most beautiful thing about this fight is how Bowser comes into it. There’s no hesitation, no pause for reprisal, none of that. Bowser simply asks if the Dark Star is done running, and then in retorsion to his ultimate reveal of power simply exclaims “SO YOU VANISH!!”. Bowser never once doubts his ability to win during these fights. Or ANY fight in the game for that matter. And that level of confidence is what makes him so dangerous, wether he’s trying to kidnap Princess Peach, or defend the kingdom from an all powerful darkness. All hail the Koopa King.
The kingdom is his, and nothing will stop that
Not to mention how his dialogue before the fight is complementing the Dark Star on setting the perfect stage for Bowser to beat his ass

Bowser spits straight fire (both literally and metaphorically) the entire song while the Dark Star says nothing. That, combined with Juno's footage showing Bowser pulling off all the action commands perfectly, gives the impression that he's essentially bulldozing through all of Dark Bowser's bullshit, which...honestly? That is extremely cathartic, especially if you know what Bowser had to go through beforehand. It feels like a grand victory for both the characters and the viewers.
Meanwhile, this cover feels more like a clash of titans - this time around, the Dark Star DOES sing, and its lyrics are in a similar vein to that of Dark Samus in Brinstar Depths - essentially just telling Bowser and the bros that they cannot hope to beat it, it's beyond their comprehension, give up and let their world be consumed...and Bowser's response is to give it the middle finger and tell it it's going to make it bleed. And unlike Juno's cover, the footage shows Bowser actually struggling and making mistakes, so Bowser still having that confidence here is just as awesome as when he was bulldozing through Dark Bowser in Juno's cover.
so, yeah, good job
You represented that Perfectly Oh my Glob
Bowser figured out no shadows could not bleed
I feel like it could also be said that the two versions can represent a version of the game each. This one, the original ds version, and junos, the 3ds remake. Playing the ds version when it came out, players going in blind would most definitely get hit a lot, but that far into the game, it's likely that they have gotten good enough at it to stand a chance against dark bowser. On the other side, players who remember dark bowsers patterns from the original have a chance of beating the 3ds versions boss fight almost flawlessly, and that's potentially even without the use of the "easy mode", which was not included in the ds version. And, heck, the music track was originally called "In the final" as this video is titled, and they changed it to "The grand finale" when the 3ds version came around, which is the name juno went with when he made his lyrical adaptation.
@@paxgallery6646 Amazing.
Also I love how this one focuses a lot more on "stars" and cosmic mentions in its lyrics while Juno's a lot like spitting fire, and stars are giant balls of fire.
i had no idea that when i scrolled through the comments, i would find the realm of the lyrical interpretation gods
"i have conquered galaxies now i stepped down to see if shadow can bleed "

Just imagine.. You're a toad walking around Toad Town then a dark storm starts. And you see the guy who's been terrorising your kingdom for years on top of a castle, fighting a dark version of himself, while they are singing a duet and very faintly you can hear the two heroes of your kingdom singing to themselves
That honestly doesn’t sound TOO weird, compared to a lot of stuff this world is put through.
That just means I have done way to much fire flower
@@billydoss6014 now im imagining mario and luigi smoking something in an ally in new donk city imagining the games in the mushroom kingdom.
And of course, you witness the dark version guck something up, and then the normal one eating it.
If the Toad is able to hear all that from down in Toad Town he must have damn good hearing then.
Incredible. Hearing Bowser say "Not Today" to kick off the music gave me chills. You did an incredible job keeping the mood with the lyrics. Some people would call it cringe to give lyrics to a video game track, but I like to see such passion and attention put into this track. Thank you, and if you ever make more serious final boss tracks like this for anything it would be too good!
I also love that they put in the "Showtime" for this fight, it was always great to hear that in the game
I think giving lyrics to video game tracks is a cool idea. I know this is way off topic, but Roar of the Jungle Dragon (Terraria calamity mod) is a great example of that.
The line: “if you’re still in there fawful know you still made one mistake…” is so powerful
The implied connection between them is honestly poetic in a way seeing how fawful could actually have been a good person but, power corrupts

How the hell was Fawful a good guy when he littearly wanted the power of dark star for himself and he even took over peach 's castle so I am actually glad that he died he deserved it

Everyone’s trash talking marios performance, when honestly I think he sounded AMAZING. Like seriously, the part where he gave his entire heart and soul to “We will bring the light back to all” actually gave me chills. Like seriously, so damn good
Jugular John exactly
For some reason when I heard “we will bring the light” I thought that was Dark Fawful singing. At that part it kinda sounded like a voice for Fawful’s laugh.
they should hear other's performances from mario
People are trash talking Marios Performance?
I think it’s because Luigi drowns him out a bit. Might’ve been better to tone down Luigi slightly, so Mario could’ve been heard more clearly. Otherwise, it seemed he had no presence.
The DS version of this game will always have a very special place in my heart, because it's the first game I can remember that I really paid attention to the soundtrack of, completed 100%, and went through again just to experience everything all over
I've BASICALLY 100% completed it. Max rank, beat all the boss rematches, ect. Except I'm missing like 4 beans.
The DS version of this game also has a special place in my heart because it was the first Mario and Luigi game I ever played
This game I probably put in over 1000 hours and 3 playthroughs (screw the Junker) before I was able to get too dark bowser (and collectibles). Maxing the bros' attacks, redefeating bosses, and collecting every single bean, mush ball, and item in the game was hard enough but nothing could compare to the music. It hit me then and there when I finally got too dark bowser that this was the end of my 6-year journey for this unparalleled game and it left me with emptiness. I do not have my DS or 3DS anymore so I can not relive the glory days with my original BIS copy but it is probably the best RPG I have ever played. I may have all the M&L games and over 80 DS-compatible games, but I will never sell my copy of BIS (90 dollars as of writing this for the game alone) because of the magic and perseverance it reminds me of.

The Mario and Luigi series is easilly the best incarnation of the series. Mario and Luigi's personalities are on full show, and it highlights that while both Bros are heroes in their own right, they still need one another to truly succeed.
Also Mario's "We will bring the light, back to all" was godlike, he belts that out at the top of his lungs like he really means it. Easilly the best Mario performance I've heard outside of Charles Martinet himself.

The Dark Star will shine
And annihilite the day
Inside the hearts of man
I see the darkness beckoning
You deal with a power
Far beyond you reckoning
Drown in shadow black as tar
Under blakest light!
Under darkest stars!
I will rise!
And the stars will fall!
All who dare to stand
Shall be made to crawl!
And in the final hour of fading light
Your dreams of peace cast aside
Scattered like dust in the night
And in the final hour, my star will shine
Starlight and powers aligned
In the final fight!
Inside the hearts of man
I see the darkness beckoning
You deal with a power
Far beyond your reckoning

But I got no patience
For imposters trying to take the throne!
I AM THE KOOPA KING!
You dare defy? I break your bones!
I have conquered galaxies
Now I've stepped down to see
If a shadow can bleed!
Koopa King will strike you down
I'll put you back in the ground
Learn why I wear the crown!
And in the final hour of fading light
No one can challenge my might!
Not while the fire burns bright!
And in the final hour my star will shine
Starlight and powers aligned
In the final fight!

Are you just a little parasite?
Hope you don’t mind
That fighting tends to build an appetite!

Know you still made one mistake
M: Thinking that we could never
Find a way to save the day
ML: We will hold our hammers high
Watch a star fall
As we soar through the sky
We will rise! Brothers hand in hand!
We will never crawl! And here we stand!
And in the final hour of fading light
Dreams of peace taking flight
Pushing back the night
And in the final hour, our star will shine!
Starlight and powers aligned
In the final fight!
DS: Inside the hearts of man
I see the darkness beckoning
B: You are a fool
To try and stand aganist the Koopa King!

Fight for everyone and everything

Imagine if Dark Bowser wasn’t evil. He’d be a great ally to the rest of the protagonists.

Wait, really?. I remember it fell off a meteorite or something.
No, I’m not sure what you are thinking of but it was originally found underground and the toads dug it up, then it caused chaos to the mushroom kingdom the star sprites sealed it away underground in a safer location until fawful found it and woke it up

Me, on my eighth time watching, literally about to cry from this masterpiece: "Yes."
Same
Absolutely
You and me both
Yep.

This is such a beautiful, dramatic telling of the climax of the game, if not ALL m&l games.
In verse 1, with dark bowser: his portraying of not only a crazed, overwhelmingly powerful foe is perfect for his role against bowser, but he doesn't just sound like a "it's hopeless, give up" monologue. He actively challenges them with lines such as "scattered like dust in the night" like how hope is already gone for all but the final brigade of bowser and bros.
Verse 2: Bowser cutting off his counterpart is perfect. His lines portray perfect how immensely powerful he is, such as "now i step down to see, if a shadow can bleed". Him getting legitimately angry with his line of "i am the koopa king" shows his overwhelming fury, and the extent of his trust in his allies to guide and support him in time of need. He's not just a king; he is THE king, and nobody can dare challenge him and survive.
Verse 3: The Mario Bros.
I LOVE how Luigi leads the lyrics, whilst Mario follows up on it. Similar to M&L Dream Team, it shows how Luigi has found his confidence again, and the bros are throwing everything on the line. In contrast to bowser's approach of domination, the bros' lyrics centers more around hope, that they "will never crawl, and here we stand". Their will and power in tandem, in their final stand for all they know and cherish about the world, for all the light in it; their "starlight and powers combined."
Verse 4: In The Final.
Bowser's fury now feels like an overwhelming, albeit blunt, heroism. He understands what needs to be done, whether selfishly or not, and feels as if he's turned that rage into motivation and power for the first time. The sync with him and the mario bros just drives it deeper; all three of them are no longer enemies. They are no longer separate. They finally understand one another, and nothing can separate that bond, to drive away the darkness and "bring the light back to all."
it's canon that Bowser didn't know the brothers were inside him, though. great analysis nonetheless
Epic
@@brodycoffey910 he means anger
Such a perfect explanation, nice job
I also really love how Bowser takes over the Dark Star's chorus in Verse 4. It really feels like he's shoving the Dark Star aside and saying "Hey! You're not the villain of the Mario games, I AM!"
Dude when Mario sang “We will bring the light back to all”.... he really hit that note when he said all. My favorite part

@@abrialwoodford6712 Yes we know his name but sometimes the villains call him Green Stache so chile
@@no.9775 That's crazy. Oh well everyone knows Luigi anyway he is Mario's brother they work together.
3:44 This is the best part, no questions asked. Luigi’s voice sounds really serious and he is basically saying that Fawful made a grave error which was that the Mario Brothers always find a way to save the day. He also asked if he was still in there. Fawful has fused with the dark star, absorbed DNAs, been even corrupted by his own thoughts and goals and so he is way different to the first time we encounter him back in SuperStar Saga (Or technically Partners in Time because the baby brothers can talk to him while they are… well babies)
I really just want a spinoff series where it's just Bowser defending the kingdom against worse villains

WE ARE SO SO BACK
I originally thought that they hadn’t done a part for Fawful because it would’ve made the song too long and clashed with the lyrics, but I just realized the importance of him staying quiet: it’s meant to show how far he’s really descended.
There’s still remains, shadows, of the cunning Beanish genius who managed to outplay both the Mario. Bros. and the King of the Koopas, but it’s not shining on through as you’d likely expect him too. Fawful’s finally obtained his dark power, at the cost of his prized minion freezing to death from something that HE had a hand in and now has lost the remaining bits of sanity when he became fused with the Dark Star Core, into the horrid “little” bug he is now. There’s no Engrish taunts or “Mustard of Doom” being screamed in a fashion we could find charming or comical: We’re seeing nothing but his demented rage.
He might’ve been a crazed, malicious genius before but here? This is the final stand of a broken, insane remains of a man who’s desperately trying to finish his quest and bring upon a happy ending-especially if it means the end of the three pains that’ve plagued him for YEARS now and brought not just his plans crumbling to pieces, but his beloved and departed mistress’ as well...
(Also, the reason I wrote this was because Fawful, himself, wasn’t specifically credited in the description or video haha.)
(Also this song is super good and god do I love this song)
Funnily enough, in both this version and Juno's version of the song, Luigi points this out, and at the same parts of the song:
"If you're still in there, Fawful, know you still made one mistake"/"The darkness went straight to your head, you've lost who you are, Fawful"
That’s a nice theory you’ve got there
*lays down*
*Tries not to cry*

Well, don’t jump to conclusions just yet. Yeah AlphaDream may have gone bankrupt, but Nintendo hasn’t. They might find a way to revive the series and possibly get another company to help them in lieu of AlphaDream.
Entirely possible, but look at Punch-Out. Nintendo has every right to continue the series on their own, they just aren't for whatever reason. Because of that, I find it highly unlikely Nintendo will continue w/ M&L.

I got my first video game ever when I was 4-5. It was a Nintendo DS, with Mario and Luigi, Bowser’s inside story on it. I loved it so much, playing it all the time, on car rides, before bed, even at school. The only issue was that I was so young, I could barely advance in the game at all, eventually getting completely stuck in the wiggler forest between the annoying carrot mini game, and the 2 boss fights that I unknowingly was severely under-leveled for. Slowly, I stopped playing the game bit by bit, until it got to the point I only ever played it on long road trips. Fast forward several years, to 2020, around March. By this point I had a 3DS, and even it was worn out. Somewhere on RUclips, I watched a few videos about the Mario and Luigi franchise. I then was spoiled on some of the boss fights and music later in the game. Seeing these gave me tons of nostalgia, but also determination, to fight all of these battles myself. I dug out my old 3DS and game cartridge which the 3DS could only barely read because it was so worn out. I started the game, almost tearing up at how much I missed the cheery menu music. Over the next week or 2 I sped through the game with my greatly improved timing and problem solving capabilities. I finally beat dark bowser, which was one of the best bosses I’ve ever fought ccand completed the game, 10 years later. As I watched the credits roll, I cried. Between 2020 and my dad fighting cancer, this was probably the happiest I had been in a long time. This song brought back a lot of the memories of that day, and I am very grateful for that. Thank you
Update: not completely sure since the doctors weren’t clear but my dad is cancer free. Thank you all for the support!

First of all, the voice effect on Dark Bowser and the almost opera-like tone gave me the chills. He sounds almost more sophisticated than Bowser, like he possesses a forbidden knowledge and cunning.

I can't believe this cover is over 3 years old. You guys at MOTI keep improving year by year, but goddamn you were always amazing!!
Alex, Kyle, and Juno all go so well together as Bowser and the Bros and those transitions with the piano were probably the best parts. I especially love the transition from the Dark Bowser battle to the Dark Core battle at 3:15 where Bowser signs as he sucks in the core, and the Bros singing as they get ready to fight! All the parts at pieced together amazingly! What an awesome channel.
The harmonies between Mario and Luigi are *powerful* . sent a chill down this musician’s spine.
I got fucking goosebumps at that
I KNOW RIGHT?
I really liked juno’s version of in the final, but his Mario was a lil bit weird. But this Mario...? *oh it’s beautiful...*
@@JugularJohn I agree, not that I dislike his version or anything, but I just really like this one.
Yeah, why is no one in the comment section talking about this? 5:31 That is where I personally got the chills.
Juno has been called back to perform “In The Final” one final time.

I love how he gave dark Bowser lines as well as the heroes so it's not just a one-sided song.
i love how luigi sings to the music while mario sings in his own way it mixes so well. bowser and dark bowsers voices are just... incredible...
Yeah. I love how the dark star has an accent, though I can't tell if it's Australian or something else. It sounds australian to me.
It’s enough to make a person who’s never played this game cry.

I’m so into the Mario series as a whole. Nintendo got me to love this with other of their popular franchises as well. I always have tears when playing their games with moments like these. The Mario and Luigi part of this video is how I would imagine how they will sing and that made me cry, it sounded wonderful. Thank you Nintendo for the memories.

~~~~~~~~ Lyrics ~~~~~~~~~
Dark bowser:
Let your hopes be
blown away
The dark star will shine
and annihilate the day
Inside the hearts of man
I see a darkness beckoning
You deal with a power
Far beyond your reckoning
Drown in shadow
black as tar
Under blackest light
Under darkest stars
I will rise
And the stars will fall
All who dare to stand
Shall be made to crawl
And in the final hour
of fading light,
Your dreams of peace cast aside
Scattered like dust in the night
And in the final hour
my star will shine
Starlight and powers aligned
In the final fight
Inside the hearts of man
I see the darkness beckoning
You deal with a power far beyond your reckoning-
Bowser:
- Well lookie here,
It’s even had a little speech prepared
You done with monologues?
‘Cause it’s my turn, you should be scared
Took my style?
Well I’m impressed
I guess copycats
want to copy the best.
But I’ve got no patience
for imposters trying to take the throne
I am the Koopa King!
You dare defy? I break your bones!
I have conquered galaxies
Now I’ve stepped down to see
If a shadow
Can bleed
Koopa king
Will strike you down
I’ll put you back in the ground
Learn why I wear the crown!
And in the final hour
of fading light
No one can challenge my might
Not while the fire burns bright
And in the final hour
My star will shine
Starlight and powers aligned
In the final fight!
What’s wrong there, critter?
Are you just a little parasite?
Hope you don’t mind
But fighting tends to build an appetite
Mario and Luigi:
Luigi, look at the core!
Hey, this is our chance, Mario!
Let’s finish off this star!
You ready, bro? Let’s’a’go!
In the journey
We’ve come far,
And now here we are.
Now you see the superstars!
If you’re still in there, Fawful,
Know you still made one mistake,
Thinking that we could never
find a way to save the day!
We will hold our hammers high
Watch a star fall
As we soar
Through the sky!
We will rise
brothers hand in hand
We will never crawl
And here we stand
And in the final hour
of fading light
Dreams of peace taking flight
Pushing back the night
And in the final hour
Our star will shine
Starlight and powers aligned
In the final fight
Dark Bowser, Bowser:
Inside the hearts of man
I see the darkness beckoning.
You are a fool to try
And stand against the Koopa king
Mario and Luigi, all:
To save the kingdoms
Fight for everyone and everything
The finale approaches
Now a victory we’ll sing
Mari and Luigi:
In the journey
We’ve come far
And now here we are
Now you see the superstars
Dark bowser:
Inside the hearts of man
I see the darkness beckoning
You deal with a power
Far beyond your reckoning
Bowser, Dark Bowser:
Dreams in darkness
Crash and burn
Now it’s time you learn
Now it’s my turn
Mario and Luigi:
We will rise
And the stars will fall
We will bring the light
Back to all
Mario and Luigi, Bowser:
And in the final hour
Of fading light
Stand tall against the night
While our hopes burn bright
And in the final hour
Our star will shine
Starlight and powers aligned
In the final fight
it says the lyrics in the video smh
Wow.just,wow.😊😮
I love how by the end you hear verses from everyone through the song. Especially personally my favorite, when Luigi and the Dark Star sing together, Luigi simply goes "We will rise/And the star will fall" referring to the Dark Star itself, but the Dark Star uses the plural of stars cause of the stars in the night that give light, which it wants to extinguish for good.
No Luigi and the Dark Star
Fawful and the Dark Star
I like the duet between Bowser and Dark Bowser in this song, because it's a meditation on the meaning of siding with evil over overt annihilation; I like Mario and Luigi's duet because it's about good fighting even when it seems hopeless. This song gives me chills every time I listen and I find myself keep coming back.
I just realized something about the lyrics.
Dark Bowser said that “Inside the hearts of man I see the darkness beckoning.” Yet his opponent is a Koopa king with two men, a Star Sprite and various Toads inside his body.
And those two men are none other than the heroes of the Mushroom Kingdom. The same heroes that had already faced the Dark Star in battle... not to mention their fights with Fawful in the Beanbean Kingdom.
Tell me what you think, but I feel that was one reason Dark Bowser lost. He was facing a creature for whom persistence was second nature... and two beings of strength and courage that were undoubtedly more capable than he had imagined.
Even the darkest night cannot completely put out a fire that refuses to die.
A better one at to phrase the last part:
Even the darkest sky can't hide the brightest fire.
Even in the darkest of times, a light will always rise to overcome it
Darkness is just the absence of light
i think that is the SOUL reason why not only dark bowser NOT ONLY the dark star (twice) BUT all that and fawful as well... bowser may look evil but he's not he's just a father and a hero on the inside (and im not talking about mario and luigi) he may hate the plumbers but we all see through that bad guy act he's just a (somewhat) caring father, a strong and determined koopa with a bright fire inside his soul... and a true hero in all our hearts...
Kingdom Hearts Aesop
*"ALL WHO DARE TO STAND, SHALL BE MADE TO CRAWL!"*
"We will never crawl, and here we stand!"
Absolute genius.
But for real, the final verse is absolute gold. Everyone got their own verse, but in the final verse, it's a ballad in direct defiance of an eldritch evil. Something whose true power is incomprehensible. This may well be their only chance to stop it, and yet Mario, Luigi, even Bowser never once have a hint of doubt in their voice as they roar in opposition of a veritable God.
And they _win._
Connor McClory oh yeah, I forgot the dark Star is basically a god
Well they can survive black holes so it’s no surprise they can kill a god
I’m sorry to ask but where is the line “we will never crawl, and here we stand!”
@@galaxykid-nu2ks Its at 4:08 of the video.
YES. This is (literally) the stuff of legend, and only makes me more excited about things like DELTARUNE. Light and Dark (and Grey) exist in everyone, which is why absolute darkness never truly "wins," and the only way to really WIN is to accept loss--and each other.
Even if that means punching an eldritch God in the goddamn face! 😆😎💖
@@coleminer8847 yeah lmao. Come on Dark Star, just fucking dodge scrub-
Dark Bowser: I am the embodiment of the eternal, bottomless void called darkness. I hunger for destruction and stand before a feast.
Mario and Luigi: We're here fighting for our lives to protect everything and everyone we hold dear. That gives us the strength to fight on despite the odds
Bowser: I am the Koopa King, I am the greatest, and you WISH you were as awesome as me!
Bowser: I am the Koopa King, you dare defy? I BREAK YOUR BONES!
This sound like the entire fight in nutshell
Well the pride of a king must always been his mayor cuality
bowser: bone go cracc cracc
Peter Alfano spot on.

There’s only room in this world for a single Koopa King
And I’m not gonna let you outdo me in anything!
*I have conquered galaxies*
*Now I’ve stepped down to see, if the shadow can bleed!*
Who are you, to think you’re stronger than I?
Nope! The Koopa King, will never die, never die, never DIE!
It’s time to bring the Grand Finale, crush the enemy line
*All while the fire burns bright!*
*And In The Final hour my star will shine!*
*Starlight, star powers aligned, In The Final fight!*
*What’s wrong there critter, are you just a little parasite?*
*Hope you don’t mind if fighting tends to BUILD AN APPETITE…*

*Watch a star fall, as we soar through the sky!*

*And In The Final hour our star will shine*

L: The darkness went straight to your head, you’ve lost who you are Fawful
And now we’ve got to stop you before you do something awful!
M: So just stand still, cuz here we come, our mallets swinging faster
