"Nobody's Hero", and "They'd Be Better Off If I Wasn't Around".... DK's Grammy-worthy singing is already great, but applying the blues to that singing makes the feels so much more crippling ;A;
It shocks me that Sterling Jarvis doesn't produce some records/albums. He's got some talent if he can make a poorly animated Donkey Kong show this shockingly good.
@@youtubechannelonastick4280 Well he is meant to be written that way, and there are two episodes where he actually strives to be a better person. Candy Kong is just a dick though (outside of this one song in Speed where she sings about forever loving DK).
@@charleslynmartin795AAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! Gee, thanks Eddie! You're in luck Kongo Bongo, DK's bac- * slips on a banana* Also that song with Eddie, plus most of the rest of the episode was just a dream.
I transcribed lyrics for anyone wanting to sing this. == BEGIN SONG == Why does it seem... everyone is so unhappy with me? When I try to do my best, they treat me like a pest! Well maybe... they'd be better off if I wasn't around. No no no, wasn't around... Why should I stay, when all I do is get in the way? They think I'm a clown, they push me around! Well maybe... they'd be better off if I wasn't around. Why should I stay, when they treat me- they treat me that way?! If I, if I, if I, if I, wasn't around!
You know what this song makes me think of? That SpongeBob episode where he leaves Bikini Bottom because his friends yelled at him for messing their day up.
And the worst part is that he didn't even mean to, these were all unlucky accidents. And none of them (Except Mr Krabs, but it's obvious for what reason and it's not Spongebob himself) even apologized for their douchy behaviour. They could've at least let Spongebob make it up to them by helping them fix their shit. Besides, this whole special is great example of how to NOT write confilct in stories.
you know i just realized, a lot of the kongs are no better then K.Rool in this, he berates Klump and Krusha all the time and what Candy, Cranky, Diddy and Funky do to DK isn't any different, at this point i dont see a difference between the Kong and K.Rool from how they treat ppl
Diddy and Funky only do it jokingly most of the time. Cranky sees him as unfit to rule Kongo bongo, so that's why he acts like he does to him. Although he does care about him. For Candy I don't really know tbh, she dumped him after accidentally slipping on a banana that just so happened to end up of his head.
I played this for my sister and she told me to turn it off. I'm just like HOW CAN YOU NOT LIKE THIS?! Clearly some people just don't have good taste. 🤷♀
I can see this song being used in my version of Pokémon the Series X and Y when Ash runs away into the forest after losing to Wulfric causing one character to blame himself for pushing Ash too hard.
Still wonder why DK even bother with them, If I was him, the next time Scurvy shows up, I'm taking the Coconut, a boat load of bananas and his ship and find a new home.

This is one of my problems with this show these characters can be so unexplainably mean towards each other and most of the time I can’t tell wether or not it’s all intentional or just lousy writing
I think it's a little bit of both. In this episode it's very much intentional for them to be depicted as mean. It's so that way they can learn their lesson that they were way too harsh and that they do need him. In other episodes I'm not so sure.
This show deserves a Grammy.
Or at least, DK's singer, Sterling Jarvis, deserves his own.
Agreed
Half the songs are real bops
@@thickfrog5177 fax the composition is low key awesome
@@LukeSkywalker-zv3xy ikr
Why does his voice sound so fucking good?!
I know this is 10 months old
But the bigger question is why didn't the singer become huge lol
His singing voice is phenomenal.
ScootsNB He's a super famous Broadway singer now. He even starred in the Book of Mormon. I'd say he's pretty huge.
The singer is actually a different guy than who does the normal voice

I forgot how mean spirited this cartoon was.
DK only got exiled like this three times out of forty episodes
Yeah that’s the reason I hate this show they’re too mean to him

Why does this song fit life so perfectly?
Because many of us can relate and life can be hard sometimes, even in these types of situations.
All of the feels
Me every day
Same here.
😔 same
at school?
99% of the budget went to DKs vocals
Well these last episodes of the second season are very well animated for the time
This song is so underrated it deserves an award
It's funny how both this and that Eddie the Yeti song both come from this episode. XD
It's almost as if a song about it being better if he wasn't around has some sort of connection to a song where he wants to go back to being around.
Discord drama in a nutshell
Discord drama, gay boy?
I mean you aren't lying
Mainstream discord..

Maybe that's how everyone in EVERY Pokemon Region would treat Ash and most of his friends. Especially in Unova.
Yeee-eeeh..

Oh...😵

When the "Follows you" goes away.
You know what this song makes me think of?
That SpongeBob episode where he leaves Bikini Bottom because his friends yelled at him for messing their day up.
The episode was called "what happened to spongebob" or "idiot boy"
@@Shawno625 Actually, it was called Whatever Happened to SpongeBob.
But iirc it was originally called WhoBob WhatPants when it first aired.
And the worst part is that he didn't even mean to, these were all unlucky accidents.
And none of them (Except Mr Krabs, but it's obvious for what reason and it's not Spongebob himself) even apologized for their douchy behaviour.

This is the song he sang when he saw he score on the tear list for SSB4
the real tears were in his eyes
Nath the Cringe Machine nobody's hero
this actually speaks to me
Dk’s singing voice is beautiful

Maybe Donky at some point would become just like Rex Dangervest. If you know what I mean...
1:32 fire solo on guitar
Why does the Donkey Kong country tv show always hit so hard?
I love how the episode this song is from is literally called It's a Wonderful Life
Poor D.K.! This is worse than what Timmy Turner went through! 😭
No, what Timmy Turner went through was still a little more fucked up because it actually showed the world WOULD be a better place without him.
Why is this so good?
0:17 The real Diddy wouldn't say that to DK :/
That hit hard ngl
This song should have legit been a real song. Like in the 60s or the 90s or something like that.
It really fits the DKC universe tbh
Nah my man DK needs a hug , seeing him treated so poorly makes me sad bro 😢
I played this for my sister and she told me to turn it off. I'm just like HOW CAN YOU NOT LIKE THIS?!
Clearly some people just don't have good taste. 🤷♀
Preach
Is this why he always jumps off the stage with another fighter, Redemption in death?
Bro why the hell do they hate donkey kong so much for little things in this show when he is the only one who saves them from being slaves
Damn why is this good?
I'm pretty sure they could sell a compilation album of nothing but these songs and make money.
Mainly from memes, probably. And novelty.
I can see this song being used in my version of Pokémon the Series X and Y when Ash runs away into the forest after losing to Wulfric causing one character to blame himself for pushing Ash too hard.
It at this moment that Serena knew.. she 🤬 up
This is what having RSD (rejection sensitive dysphoria) feels like 😢
When your mom got killed by the bad guys
I think whoever did this to Donkey Kong on purpose knew too much about him. I mean, he's hero for Pete's sake.😤😤😤
This show is just mean spirited in my opinion.
It isn’t all the time

It's a good song (in the terms of this show) but I still prefer I'm Nobody's Hero, that is a masterpiece (again, in the shows terms)
Damn bruh this boi can sing
Boyfriend sent me this when I was mad at him
Ok but why is this song fire
Is this just the donkey kong version of WhoBob WhatPants

Sad thing is, This repeats in Sonic Boom which a similar show to this, In fact you can call it a spiritual successor.
