Will this be my final bout with the funny skeleton man? If we can recreate Megalovania from memory, we can truly do it all.

like some rando in chat said: "we have megalovania at home" megalovania at home:
minilovania
@@quik06 apparently that translates to "mining"
megolovania at deltarune
good use of a first time chat tbh
lmao i was so surprised seeing you here lol
The struggle of hearing a song in your head but being unable to put it into a DAW is way too real 😂. Loved every second of this though!
Fr 😢
This cucks 89/100 projects
Excuse my lack of knowledge in the field of music, but could you kindly explain to me what a DAW is?
@@Beegfloppa fr. I don't know but I think it's the section for the pitch
@@Beegfloppa digital audio workstation. It's just a professional way of saying "Programs for music making"
someone in chat said: "sans when he chugs mayonnaise instead of ketchup"

Shady understands sans' character better than most of the undertale community he would be like "I have a song?"
that's so true
He literally has one named after him
@@Ezecool-3105stmawyfs?
@@Foxyron1973 no, literally the theme that plays when we met him "Sans."
He would be ashamed of you
"Sans had a stroke" that chatter summed up this version perfectly! I love it!
Fr lmao
It was silvynne
Yea burst out laughin at that comment
In this world, you're either blessed with the ability to remember a piece of music nearly 1:1, or the ability to be able to create music, there is no in-between.
I am the myth of an “in-between”
@@ItzTyraxsame
I am outside 9f these boundries (i can't make music at all)
I'm the guy who's in between AND procrastinating.
I can make music… but i cant at the same time
I'm not sure what you mean Cid, this is exactly what Megalovania sounds like

why are you repliers like this
I'm not surprised you perfectly recreated Megalovania from memory, especially the hidden motif(?) that Toby never admitted was in the song haha.
huh
@@PanD0rado The joke here is Shady added the Among Us song, which I jokingly stated was already hidden in Megalovania (it's not).
@@Aurakid Dont forget cbat was in there too :D props to shady for figuring that part out. Very often overlooked
@@UncleJack420 Oh, true!
@@Aurakid Oh LMAO i thought u were serious, though I did hear he forgot some really highlighting melodies
got this notification on my genocide replay, during the sans fight. perfect timing
Sans broke the fourth wall 💀
The true true ending: you get this notification while fighting sans
@@SLINKIS2the true true true ending:you get this notification while watching sans gameplay and fighting him at the same time
Currently trying to fight sans for the first time rn!
@@justaperson886 good luck!
When the boss hits you so hard the song gets knocked into a blender:
Oh gosh i need to feel that myself
“He’d be like ‘I have a song’”is probably one of the realest things ever
5:26 there is someone saying "maybe the real instruments are the friend we made along the way" and I find it hilarious 😂
It kind of sounds like if undertale was made for the gameboy advance (in the best way possible) …and had an among us Cbat DLC
yes
we got "you felt your sins crawling on your back" now we got "i can feel by bones falling apart" 2:03
With all due respect, this is incredibly close. There is no insult. This amazing talent.
This is not remotely close
@@TakenUsernameAuradiumwhat on earth are you talking about?
@@panek6443 the only close thing to the original is the intro instrument, but even then, the settings are wrong. The melody of anything that's not the classic lead is wrong. The rhythm is wrong too. If we dont include mixing and instrument accuracy, it's 40% there
@@TakenUsernameAuradium to be fair to a completly untrained ear like me, it sounded pretty damn close
@@satratic127 I mean, I remember being a new musician, and listenign to something close to this, andstill hearing a huge difference
I love the person who said "IM NUTTED" while the full song played
“Capsulatedballs”💀
@@anna_not_banana3065 Hell nah 💀
"go outside nerd... Before i tell you about Zelda lore"-shady cicada
This is the final battle: Shady versus the intrusive thoughts
“I hate to say it but this song is getting… Frisk-y!” SHADY 😂😂
The fact that you recreated the entire song 99.999...% accurately is astounding!
"IM GONNA WATCH A MEGALOVANIA CREATION VIDEO" "jesus christ stitch is everywhere these days"
I'm ashamed of you. jk, this is awesome
the sans real
you have a song?
This but drawing😭 Like: You have an incredibly detailed and amazing art idea in your head,and somehow your hand just refuses to creat it. I wish i could just: 🧠➡️🖼️
I don’t know how or why KZhead knew to recommend this to me at this current moment but I’m so glad it did because wow that’s talent. Doing this without a time limit is hard enough, but you did it with a time limit and from memory and it sounds epic. You just earned a new subscriber.
Now playing recognizes it as the og, you did good enough
Honestly it sounds really incredibly similar to the original aside from some really minor differences, to me? Like there's one or two slightly off points but you did really really really well with think, it's super impressive.
3:12 Sans would absolutely know he has a song, and he would also know the conditions that need to be met for you to hear it in-game. Sans would be ashamed at how well you know his song.
I remember you from years ago. A long lost friend recommended you to me, and I subbed on a different account but I never actually watched or listened to your stuff. It's nice to see why they were so fond of you.
This musta been the dollar store megalovania they used in homestuck
nah youʻre crazy for that
the C-batmogus part sounds strangely fittiing
Listening to that made sans forget your genocides
Capsulatedballs is WHAT?!
this is like that one attempt of putting a song you had in your head into a DAW.... except yours atleast sounds good
I defo see this being a fangame about dementia like that one DOOM WAD
Ah yes, another fine addition to the Megalovania genre. Still great. You just can't kill that song.
Finally. Watching KZhead all god damn day, and here is one good video. Thank you.
When I got to the end when he was apologizing, I got a discord notification saying sans was crying
We having a bad time with this one!!! 🗣️🔥🗣️🗣️🔥🔥💯💯(you invented Toby Fox)
the imposter theme song in place of the part he had trouble actually sounding good
Saw this is my recommended. Didn't expect much. Got more than much. Editing and personality go far :,D
My favorite part of megalovania is the brass, so thank you for getting that part with astute accuracy ( i dont know what astute means) edit: "fartcore" killed me 💀
"I can feel my bones getting stronger" lmao
YOOOOOO Ive been listening to your music for years now and this is the first video I've seen of yours!
Despite being already subscribed if this was my first approach to your channel no i wouldn't want more but keep it up
“Can we find a lead that doesn’t hurt??” No, we can’t.
BROOO ADORO ESTE VIDEO, Tiene originalidad, Buena edición no sobresaturada, Buena voz, Carisma, Duración Perfecta, simplemente epico, me pasaré mas seguido por tu canal, te adoro amigo sigue asi
The talent is crazy keep going love this
4:58 onwards. Whoever "capsulatedballs" is, you're having way too much fun
the ooo at the end gets deeper and it makes my blood boil that it didnt
Yo, that was actually spot on. That was really good. Good job keep up the good work.
HELP I CHOKED ON MY CAKE WHEN THAT ONE PERSON SAID: ''we have megalovania at home. megalovania at home: '' 6:03
The fact it was a first time chatter who said it, made it even funnier.
5:45 AMOGUS
hearing cbat was like getting hit in the head with a sledgehammer
2:21 if you keep on making puns like that we're gonna have to *frisk* you!
5:46 *You feel that today is definitly NOT a beautiful day outside. *You feel.... ¿Determined?* *what the heck. -chara
Oh sweet the algorithm finally gave me someone that uses Cubase
I loved this so much that I subbed ❤
the person in chat said "exactly how I remember it" THATS WHAT WE ARE DOING!!!
This actually sounds really good!
the second you played the first 2 notes it already was perfect
"go outside Before i tell you about Zelda lore" Bro, you want me to go or not? LOL The fact that it was actually VERY close to the original is what makes it the funniest
One time, I actually made a 300+ slide presentation on zelda lore for my stream (it was an 8 hour stream), so definitely stay LOL. And thanks so much! The uncanny-ness really was amplified the closer we got :'D
@@Shadycicada you know what. this genuinely made me subscribe. 300+ slides is DETERMIN(ed)ATION
Omg this is very, very good replicate of the original! Wish I could do something like this
Another perfect remix by the lovely Mr. Cicada 🔥🔥🔥
This is actually pretty good, I like the remix
The first song I ever learned on the piano was Megalovania. Because of this, I know the melody like the back of my hand. Safe to say, this hurt. Alot.
Holy heck but this is actually really impressive O.o
"This songs getting frisk-y" I see what ya did there. 😉💀
4:58 this is a freaking banger 10/10
This..This is perfection
its actually pretty good
Unironically excellent, sounds pretty damn good from memory
You did quite good for all based on memory
It actually turned out so good, I could hear just a little difference between the original song but that doesn't matter, good job!
I feel like any person who spent as much time using this program as you do would be able to pick the instruments they want without getting lost in the menus and picking the wrong thing. Which is definitive proof that _I've_ never used this software before :D
Sounds like the astro remix ngl
megalove-ania. I Loved it
6:01 gerudo desert theme from tp
😂 I loved this hahah! you did good (only 3 minutes in but still, very entertaining heheh)
Weirdly what I focused on was Hellyon White in your chat I have 6 pieces of their artwork signed by VA's on my wall
*_He added the drums to early lol_*
i've lived long enough to hear shady cicada make megalovania
5:45 AMONG US?!!?
Yes amongus
mega-low-pain-ia
Every few months I stumble across the channel and I'm like woah its that guy I listen to on Spotify
ngl this actually sounds pretty good
this made my day
0:19 IS THAT A METAL TONGUE REFERENCE??!!
That’s actually impressive
It’s time for the funny bone man I have to admit something embarrassing: Megalovania is the only song I could recreate from memory in a DAW, note wise at least
You know what? That's actually pretty decent
this is awesome
it had to be done one day, it was inevitable.
4:34 among
the oooooo part actually sounds like soemthing in like a symphony recreation of megalovania or its from a souls game
To undo this pain in my ears i gotta listen to that 10 hour loop of "snes" XD
Ho my god it’s so good I want to listen to this so much
awwwww i love da little stitch voice
This proves that Magalovania is impossible to ruin. Listened to every odd beat skipped every even beat skipped, ordered in a different way of beats like alphabetical or soemthing, played using bad instruments. Hybrid between megalovania with soemthing else. Havent find a bad way to remake or remix this briliantly written song. Even backwards it sounds great. Tobby Fox was genius when composing megalovania.
Hits hard🔥🔥🔥
5:32 i just , like bruh
🤡
