Man... they can't barely hold a note without making it seem wrong... I totally love the idea of singing a great song like this acapella... but ... it gives me the shivers of how wrong it sounds at times :S especially the ones who sing the bassline
i guess u have gotta be a c64 fan @ one point in time to enjoy this, i would say it was quite creative for on their part,,,,yeah it might have been hard to see or go through this if ur not familiar with the origional game
From Metallica Capellas to C64? Ones not sure if they are my thing, but great to see tributes like this. I also believe the main melody is without doubt ripped from R.Sakamoto's film score for Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence yet R.Hubbard takes the credit for the song.
@TheJacksparrow666 , hey numb-nuts, please by all means get up on stage and you do it and see howgood you are,,,,they do an amazing job of an old game tune,..Hats off to them ... :)
As much as I respect the work of Ron Hubbard, I have to say that certain parts of "International Karate" are a shameless rip-off of "Merry Christmas, Mr Lawrence" from Ryûichi Sakamoto! Nevertheless, all of Hubbards tunes are some kind of a soundtrack of my childhood...
You're absolutely right (about parts of IK are stolen from Sakamoto). But did you know that the music of "The Way of the Exploding Fist" (main title) is not for note part of the chinese repertoire ? Dance of the Yao according to a comment from th-cam.com/video/j_3rmoA1JKY/w-d-xo.html (comment by jungleng)
Everybody who used to play this as a kid knows this is pure magic.
adding the characters into the video was pretty cool
C64 and two Swedish blondes - what more could you want from life?

Oh man this was so good I almost cried. 5 stars

To be fair, it was quite common for early video game composers to lift tunes from pop music or movie soundtracks.
same here. i don't think it's cool without these 80s sounds...
Dwight would join this group
cool!
Nice idea, but some beatboxing to mimic the rhythm section would be even better.
*** what the, it's like listening to the disabled choir!
+Neil G (IndieRetroNews) hahah that`s the funniest thing I`ve read in a long while
Ultimate lol...
btw: C64 = my childhood
in an air headed way
I wish I had this kind of time to spare -
Is this what one of those DMT therapy sessions look like?
@typingnose Jesus Christ it was a joke
The first woman who sings has such a sexy voice...
hehe..this is awesome :-)
I Will still marry you in a second, good woman, your voice makes me Spiritual ;) (just to clarify, tis the short haired woman, with red velvet dress)
2021
I know, I was just being pedantic
yeah i wanna like it but i just cant...
i appreciate it tho..
Hammmer!
this doesnt sound like international karate..... i wouldnt even have noticed it without the title of the video......epic fail on a good idea!
You must be thinking of the wrong game then.
Now do Fist 2
total extravargant.Aber superschön.
🤣👍👍👍
Where did you get this?:)))
if this is swedish, what decade was this performed in? :) hilarious clothes :) and hair...
IAm marrying the girl in red,, so hands off ;)
this actually sounded pretty terrible. I would have never recognized the theme if I wasn't told what t's supposed to be.
Nice Idea, but the human voice can NEVER match that perfekt dirty chiptunesound from a SID programmed by Rob Hubbard. NEVER.
Too bad they didn't do the fast part. That would've required some beatboxing tho.
lol svens

I remember IK+ that but the acapella version is nothing special. And I DON´T love it.
Nerds out of tune. Top game though.
This is so embarrassing.
This is happening when creativity f###ed up
