It's not that surprising considering every corporation in the world right now is prioritizing quantity over quality. Disney could care less if people love their movie, they just want people to tolerate it enough to take their kids to see it in theaters, and sit through it at home 100 more times streaming it on disney+
Well this guy is really good with music, let's not be derogatory towards him by saying what he did was easy. The problem is that Disney should be hiring people like him and giving them enough time to cook, too.
Like a multi animator project? Honestly I’d love to see RUclipsrs remake Wish but I don’t know if there’s enough people willing to do that animation takes a lot of time
At this point I genuinely feel tempted to do so. The sole reason I haven’t made an animatic of any of his songs is because I’m already busy working on my own passion projects
I know usually people exaggerate that a redo is "so much better than the original" but this really is, in many ways. There's parts that need polishing, but in that regard, the original is a god damned sea urchin
@@Yellowguy0619 like how the line about how he'd give you whatever you'd ask for (like clothes and stuff) is followed by a weird line, just small stuff like that
@@DrizzingSakuras Well for my criticism in Jonah's version is when he still added "All I want is a little respect." Cause in the original movie, he was already getting respect so what's the point in saying that, and what's the point in adding it still if he is already respected??
"At all costs." The way you delivered that line broke my heart. It really sounded like Magnifico understood what he was sacrificing, what he was about to lose... And it saddened him. This is the kind of line and delivery people cling onto when imagining the villain can be redeemed.
This is a much better version story-wise, it shows his descent into madness perfectly and makes more sense than the original. Someone get Chris Pines to cover it!!
Jonah I feel like you're underestimating your abilties because this is a genuinely really good rewrite. It just needs the professional mixing and mastering of the one we got and Chris Pine. Then it will be perfect
This is 100% how I feel about it, it's more than perfect but it still kisses a bit of professionalism mixing (for example the chorus and lyrics sounding more smooth), also while I do love the way he sings it a British voice actor is would totally sell it!!
Yeah the thing I like about disney musicals is the long note on the ending and the camera zooms out from the character. Like ariel's "part of your wooooooooorld" or genie's "never had a friend like meeeeeeeeee". That also applies to villain songs like the ending note of frollo's hellfire and scar's "be prepaaaaaaaaaaared" So Asha ending her song like "to have something more than.... this", I was like where's the rest of it? Lol I expected it to be longer. So Jonah doing the same long note to This Is The Thanks I Get was a big respect to the disney formula
Yeah, i actually think the end of this song is a little too close to “friend like me’s” ending tune and cadence. My mind immediately went to Aladdin when I heard this for the first time. Besides that this song is perfect *chefs kiss.
@@cubonefan3 And I think that if this is what Disney had done it would have worked perfectly, Wish was supposed to be the 100 annyversary. Having winks in the songs too, and not just in your face easter eggs, would have been amazing because those songs where the ones to save the princess movies, withouth the good music Disney would be nothing.
The "Just come on out. I'm sure that all of this is a big mistake" part made me genuinely nervous when I first heard it. The delivery is so subtly sinister. It 100% reads like he is baiting someone out of hiding so he can hurt them. ....Meanwhile in the original song, the line sounds like he genuinely just wants to talk it out 😂
@@sliceofmaggpie I'm also aware that it's bad, but hey, I didn't say I didn't like Yodel-adle-eedle-idle-oo. I like it too, and I somehow enjoy that more than King Magnifico's song.
My only suggestion is instead of "In this book I may have my mind lost", it'd be "In this book my mind may be lost". Feels cleaner and more direct putting focus on the mind
I couldn’t agree more The original had me thinking “awww this poor sweet old man” whereas this version has me like “yikes, this king’s clearly been through the wringer and needs therapy, but somebody bring him to justice first!”
Not only does this sound better than the original, but it also gets the point of Magnifico's heel turn across way better. It's not just him randomly feeling disrespected due to his ego. He's been through the wringer to make Rosas as amazing as it is, and he wants to protect it. Framing his use of evil magic as a reluctant sacrifice instead of an irrational fit makes him seem like what he's supposed to be: a well-intentioned ruler who thinks he knows better.
They were chasing the success of Let It Go and We Don't Talk About Bruno that got radio play, and decided to make every song a pop hit. The problem is that pop songs are nothing like show tunes, and the crossovers were unique lightning strikes. The fact that they gave the love song duet to the hero and villain to sing after removing the love interest from the script really shows the priorities.
@@PlatinumAltaria that definitely gives classic big coporation vibes -- in an attempt to make their music more marketable, they strip it of what made it popular in the first place
The difference is one is written by a musical theatre person (while Lin’s music is pop and rap, he’s first and foremost a musical theatre writer) to one that is written by the same people who wrote Justin Bieber songs
Absolutely adore this version of the song. It's so passive-aggressive but you can definitely feel the anger building and building. I can speak to this truth since I found myself in the situation before
I like this, it's not just improving the song by making him sound evil. He sounds like he's well intentioned but has inner demons that claim him over the course of the song as he almost "Falls"
This is not only a much better song than the original, but also the only Disney villain song aside from Hellfire that genuinely made me feel scared The piano and snare drum make me feel like I’m being hunted and that accompanied by the lyrics just triggers a fight or flight response Basically, this is absolutely fabulous and I love it
If there were a team of artists that suddenly decided to redo the entirety of Wish, Jonah is the first person I’d expect them to ask to rewrite the music NO QUESTIONS ASKED
I love how your lyrics focus on keeping Magnifico’s arrogance about himself without getting distracted on things like his looks. Even though he’s done some kind things, he’s caught up on “how amazing he is” for them, which you balance well. It also helps to stitch together the pivot his character takes, rather than the switch coming out of nowhere.
Dude?? If you could pair a matching instrumental rewrite with someone who could match the octave ranges (or just put yours, since you're also a great singer), it would be HEAVENLY. 😭😭
I love the lyrics here, I really do. But I do miss having the King act pissy by screaming "THIS IS THE THANKS I GET?!" It just would have been funny, though I do get that it would clash with the vibe that this revision is trying to achieve.
As I said before this rewrite does a better job of showing the king going mad. I love that this song gives more time to show him slowly breaking down. Better the song bring it back to his origin story being the catalyst or reason behind him going mad with paranoia. Nicely done!
So in love with how the lyric "this is the thanks I get" is less of a question and more of a statement, assuming a sense of correctness and superiority
The ending to this song rewrite was literally villainous-ly magestic. How could Disney miss so badly. I'm glad someone's doing justice in this platform
I feel like "I give you shelter, I'd give you clothes. If you really needed those" would be a better rhyme + fits the message better. The next line is also a bit clunky, maybe instead its "I offer kindness, I offer hope, (and yet) all you want is trouble, I can't let this Kingdom crumble"
THIS ATE DOWN SOOO BADDDD!!! You literally just inspired a freshman to take music theory and start making my own songs, in just like 2 weeks. YOURE AWESOME DUDE
Your version also brings out the cooler ideas the original melody was going for (trouble…crumble). It’s clever. I also like that the instrumental overhaul doesn’t strip the song of the original “upbeat villain” idea, and the snare helps maintain the integrity of the song while elevating it. This is extremely impressive work.
I don’t say this to stick it to Disney’s wish… but this is a legitimately better song. You conveyed exactly what magnifico is all about what he seeks to protect. Flow beautifully and the cadence is on point. You wrote poetry where the original was AI shlock. Keep it up! Maybe, if we’re lucky and all subscribe hard enough, we can blow yer channel up
“This is the Thanks I Get!?” (Jonah’s version) I can’t help it if you can’t see the way It’s pathetic! You think you know best? You think you know pain? I’m the king! I work magically! When it comes to looks, no one matches me! Yeah, I’m passionate, I’m not petulant! Someone praise me for my benevolence! Ahem- just look, I’d give you shelter, I’d give you clothes If you really need them most I’d be the first one to volunteer my troops If ever you’re in trouble, I can’t let this kingdom crumble I welcome you all here from nearby cities and distant lands I clean up all your messes And I keep you safe any way I can I give, and give, and give, and give There’s no need to pay me back! All I want is just a little bit of respect! And this is the thanks I get? Oh, come on don’t worry about them You’re a great king! Is that so? Of course! I mean, where to even begin You’re so brilliant! That’s the least that you could say There’s more Oh, come on now! Yeah, you’re cute, and strong, and bold, and brave! Thanks, fellas I’m a saint, it’s true I built this whole city just for you And now you’re complaining? You’ve got no clue How hard it is to do what I do! I did fourteen wishes last year That’s impressive, would you agree? And now you question my methods While you reap of my generosity You know I’ve always had your back So why can’t you just trust me? I’ve been nothing but gracious and kind since the day that we met! And this is the thanks I get? No hesitations, no regrets I didn’t wanna do this I swore I’d never do this But I’m hypnotized by how these pages flip I refuse to have my power stripped A portion, a spell, a summon, a curse! Anything to make that light reverse! In this book I may have my mind lost But I must protect my home at all costs There’s a traitor in our midst An errant, insidious snake Just come on out I’m sure that all of this is a big mistake! I’ll find you soon enough And til then, I will take no break! The sacrifices that I must make No, nothing can ruin this claim I’ve staked I’ve been through the storm for all your sakes, and yet This is the thanks I get?
this was literally only posted a day ago (not the video of him fixing it, im just talking about THIS upload) and i had it stuck in my head ALL DAY TODAY AND YESTERDAY. i think that tells you how AMAZING this version is!!
i hope the cover artists and arrangers get their hands on this one bc this is already a 7/10 but with even a little more polish it could be a 9/10 easily
Your revamp really highlighted just how catchy the original song could have been if the professionals working on it were just given more of a clear vision. I would love to see someone with more intimidating vocals do a cover of this version
DisneyVevo just uploaded the actual This Is The Thanks I Get on RUclips 14 minutes ago COINCIDENCE I THINK NOT They knew your version would defs beat the original, there's no doubt about it
Thank duck somebody had the balls to make this song make sense and sound a bit more villainous. And it actually uses words that go with the movie's setting.
I love how he got rid of the "Oh wait nvm im good again !!" aspect in the song, simply because it made no sense and didn't work with the plot OR the song. I like this much better
this dude managed to make a better disney villain song using a snare drum, a piano, audacity, and a microphone

YESSS
That is SUCH a cursed description but honestly..... you're right
absolutely. the self-righteousness and borderline insanity in the last segment sounds so much like JD
"At all costs."
The way you delivered that line broke my heart. It really sounded like Magnifico understood what he was sacrificing, what he was about to lose... And it saddened him.
This is the kind of line and delivery people cling onto when imagining the villain can be redeemed.
At least it’s better than “I can’t help it if mirrors love my face. It’s genetics! Hey, I got these genes from outer space!”

Disney went from Encanto, one of if not the most popular disney musical to this damn trash.
They were chasing the success of Let It Go and We Don't Talk About Bruno that got radio play, and decided to make every song a pop hit. The problem is that pop songs are nothing like show tunes, and the crossovers were unique lightning strikes.

It's so passive-aggressive but you can definitely feel the anger building and building.
I can speak to this truth since I found myself in the situation before
The "No hesitations, No regrets" hit SO HARD. Who knew four words could communicate more than Disney's entire song could.
2:22 This part is just GREAT. The slower pacing, the lyrics, the acting, the final note... Just WOW.
I like this, it's not just improving the song by making him sound evil. He sounds like he's well intentioned but has inner demons that claim him over the course of the song as he almost "Falls"
2:19 Ok but the ‘at all costs’ line hit so hard👌
It’s giving the You’ll Be Back vibes, and I’m all in for it!
THIS! never have i ever seen a better description
He really succeeded in making Magnifico more like the classic evil Disney villain that they said he would be
This is the true version to me.
Love the changed lyrics and more subdued music. It conveys its message more clearly.
I like how every time at “this is the thanks I get?” the song continuously refuses to become a big bombastic pop song.
2:13 - 2:21 - So Cool.
This is not only a much better song than the original, but also the only Disney villain song aside from Hellfire that genuinely made me feel scared
The piano and snare drum make me feel like I’m being hunted and that accompanied by the lyrics just triggers a fight or flight response
Basically, this is absolutely fabulous and I love it
be prepared, hellfire, and this song are my favorite villain songs :3
Much better than the original.

There is, a youtuber named PinkieMachineStudios is remaking Wish, music and all.
Thanks for mentioning it! I just watched the first 25 minutes of the storyboard animation they did along with a few other artists and it is so good!!
I love how your song makes him less openly dickish and has an air of plausible deniability toward being the villain

And now you’re complaining? You’ve got no clue

And now you question my methods
While you reap of my generosity

I refuse to have my power stripped

But I must protect my home at all costs
There’s a traitor in our midst

Just come on out
I’m sure that all of this is a big mistake!
I’ll find you soon enough
And til then, I will take no break!
The sacrifices that I must make
No, nothing can ruin this claim I’ve staked

The only note I have for this is that I feel like there’s not a lot going on with the background music, but I mean ITS SO GOOOOOOOOODD AAAAH-
I love how it sounds less like pop now
Bravissmo! I've actually watched your rewrite on this one and the city of Rosas, but holy shit, that long note is perfection! Chef's kiss!

I love how some lines are kept cause they are just good line as he said in the full video it had reminence of a good song by a rushed deadline
The Frolo section was absolutely amazing!
With proper vocals, sound mixing and more backing, this would be so much better than the movie version.
Sometimes i think “how does Disney mess up this bad?” And then i remember they made the “I’m the alpha im the leader” song
Dude your version made me legit tear up, which is so far from the emotion the actual movie gave me
THIS IS ART AND 100% BETTER THAN THE PREVIOUS ONE. This is the official Magnefico villain song for me.
this was literally only posted a day ago (not the video of him fixing it, im just talking about THIS upload) and i had it stuck in my head ALL DAY TODAY AND YESTERDAY. i think that tells you how AMAZING this version is!!
gonna be belting this instead of the original for sure 💀
better than the og 🤞🤞
Time for this guy to write a full musical
I listen to all your remakes so often i forgot how originals sounds like
The "At all costs" Parallel gave me chills. Nice job on all these rewritten songs!
i hope the cover artists and arrangers get their hands on this one bc this is already a 7/10 but with even a little more polish it could be a 9/10 easily
Disney hire this man
This sounds like it could be in Heathers, you did an amazing job!
I loved the "At All Costs" line, what a great throwback that hits hard.
Now THIS actually makes sense!
Your revamp really highlighted just how catchy the original song could have been if the professionals working on it were just given more of a clear vision. I would love to see someone with more intimidating vocals do a cover of this version
The fact that I listen to this song on loop instead of the original says a lot.
DisneyVevo just uploaded the actual This Is The Thanks I Get on RUclips 14 minutes ago
COINCIDENCE I THINK NOT
They knew your version would defs beat the original, there's no doubt about it
Menacing yo, well re-wrote buddy
~ Roarr!
I love how more villainous this is omg. The "this is the thanks I get?"(s) sounds so ominous.
I like how it sounds annoyed and sinister, and never has a huge note.
Thank duck somebody had the balls to make this song make sense and sound a bit more villainous. And it actually uses words that go with the movie's setting.
I love this the time and effort you put into this clearly shows
This is what I have stuck in my head. Such a great revision.
THANK YOU! I have been manually clicking on the chapter marker to listen to this on repeat until now.
2:17 I love this reference
Legit gave me chills
I love how he got rid of the "Oh wait nvm im good again !!" aspect in the song, simply because it made no sense and didn't work with the plot OR the song. I like this much better
Thank you, I’ve been waiting for this since I saw your rewrite video! My brother and I have had this stuck in our heads 😂
