I just love how sadistic this song is and how the villain makes a point in making it all shiny and dynamic, showcasing its full villainy by being a practical drama ruler who weakens the food psychologically and emotionally. Truly an example of how to do villain songs that aren't all gloomy.
@@The_Darke_Lorde well, yeah, but they do have victimization, or a sob story incorporated filled with anger, or some sadness. In this one, there's none of it. He just enjoys himself. Even his revenge on Maui is more for a matter of pride than any real hatred.
Lemme just say, this art of female Tamatoa is gorgeous❤ Also, an interesting and unexpected choice of a song, but I love it) Lydia’s voice is perfect for it (as it is for an awful lot of other characters and their songs, if we’re being real😁).
This is incredible! And that artwork, I picture her as a Witch Queen of her own kingdom with her kingdom being everything in the dark like Cecaelia like Ursula that want to be shiny like the mermaids that see them as monsters and ugly with their queen making them shiny and tricking the Mermaids and such so they become Polyps as a lesson with the Witchqueen being Ceto, mother of sea monsters
This feels SO different like this. Like it's Maoi's ex-girlfriend who heart he broke in hi sown arrogance. And now she's back and breaming with self confidence.
Hi idk if ya remember me but I was one of the who requested “Shiny” seven months ago and finally here it is-your vocals are so melody sounding and the sadistic-like tone-ah chef’s kiss 💓💓
This is the song you play when you face off with that Ex who dared call you ugly an leave you, only for you to come back looking like an absolute goddess while their scraping by. Shine you beautiful star Shine
Well, yes, but some of the lyrics also imply she looks down on those who don't scrub the deck like she does, implying she's still ashamed and is unable of accepting who she used to be, even if it might have had good parts to it.
Whoa 😳 this shouldn’t be a crab, it should be a siren. Because I assure you, if I heard this in the middle of a deadly storm, I’d gladly follow it to my death🤩💕
I was not expecting to be thirsting for Tamatoa today. I should have xD Man, your voice is so glam, very suited to the whole glitzy vibe of this. You sound like Tamatoa actually managed to make himself that glamorous instead of tacky. Both the voice and the artwork are giving me Ideas about a vid I've been wanting to make for a long time now...
Ima be Fr and you can call me weird all you want but- TAMATOA IS MY FAVORITE CHARACTER FROM MOANA AND NOONE CAN CHANGE MY MIND I JUST LOVE HIS ENERGY SO MUCH😭
I did not see this song coming but I absolutely love it! The art, the song in general, and of course the amazing voice! Exited to see what you cover next!💖
The more I think about your rendition, the more I _really_ want the Moana scene to be reanimated with a giantess - six arms, four legs, like a Hindu goddess insert - and I just know it would drive _everyone_ crazy!
I feel like this version of the story would be that this fellow demi lady loved Maui but was rejected by him, so she glams herself up, making her "shiny" through dastardly ways, (possiblely by taking the items from the humans that Maui loves) when rejected again after the transformation that she thought would win Maui's love, she breaks inside realizing she'd never win his love over the humans, so her goal becomes to get his fish hook and the heart.
I've never heard a song that's villainously like poison running through your veins. The original Tomato was more cheeky and vindictive, but here it's like a knife to the heart, very cool.
Well, Tamatoa hasn't always been this glam I was a drab little crab once Now I know I can be happy as a clam Because I'm beautiful, baby Did your granny say listen to your heart Be who you are on the inside I need three words to tear her argument apart Your granny lied I'd rather be Shiny Like a treasure from a sunken pirate wreck Scrub the deck and make it look Shiny I will sparkle like a wealthy woman's neck Just a sec Don't you know Fish are dumb, dumb, dumb They chase anything that glitters (beginners) Oh, and here they come, come, come To the brightest thing that glitters Mmm, fish dinners I just love free food (free food) And you look like seafood (seafood) Well, well, well Little Maui's having trouble with his look You little semi-demi-mini-god Ouch! What a terrible performance Get the hook (get it?) You don't swing it like you used to, man Yet I have to give you credit for my start And your tattoos on the outside For just like you I made myself a work of art I'll never hide, I can't, I'm too Shiny Watch me dazzle like a diamond in the rough Strut my stuff, my stuff is so Shiny Send your armies but they'll never be enough My shell's too tough Maui man, you could try, try, try But you can't expect a demi-god To beat a decapod (look it up) You will die, die, die Now it's time for me to take apart Your aching heart Far from the ones who abandoned you Chasing the love of these humans Who made you feel wanted You tried to be tough But your armour's just not hard enough Maui Now it's time to kick your Hiney Ever seen someone so Shiny Soak it in 'cause it's the last you'll ever see C'est la vie mon ami I'm so Shiny Now I'll eat you, so prepare your final plea Just for me You'll never be quite as shiny You wish you were nice and Shiny
So earlier this week, I was discussing the Hobbit with my Literature class, and someone said that Smaug (the dragon) reminded them of Tamatoa and this song and I have never been able to view it the same way.
This cover sounds really good! Although your voice reminds me of Android 21, rather than a female version of Tamatoa (which ended up making the "I just love free food" line sound even better).
The legend says in an alternative version of the Little Mermaid, this is Ursula's song Oh and your "C'est la vie mon ami" is very good ! Kiss from France, chérie
‘I just love free food’ - never have I sung a line I identify with more
Presave to stream the song here! distrokid.com/hyperfollow/lydiathebard/shiny
Well, that’s one line a lot of people can identify with)))😂
Amazing and beautiful so calm but the emotion in your voice ahhh I can't get enough!!!
Truthfully who doesn’t love free food?
LYDIA!! could you please sing dark of the night from Anastasia??
Me too
I will always love the fact that Lin Manuel Miranda rhymed “demigod” and “decapod”
That dude's a music genius 🤌🏽
Hamilton Guy wrote the lyrics for Shiny? 😮
@@lunari1249 true.
My god, I didn’t knew he worked on the song and Moana
That men is a music genius
The sign of lyrical magic: blending science and myth, and if there’s a chance to make someone break out a dictionary, take it and run!
I just love how sadistic this song is and how the villain makes a point in making it all shiny and dynamic, showcasing its full villainy by being a practical drama ruler who weakens the food psychologically and emotionally. Truly an example of how to do villain songs that aren't all gloomy.
youtube likely didn't give you a notification, but you got 190 likes! good job bro :)
@@cmat911 thanks.
Honestly it properly characterises Tamotoa as both whimsical and sadistic. He enjoys being cruel and evil.
Most villain songs from Disney aren't gloomy at all! Most are legit bops
@@The_Darke_Lorde well, yeah, but they do have victimization, or a sob story incorporated filled with anger, or some sadness.
In this one, there's none of it. He just enjoys himself. Even his revenge on Maui is more for a matter of pride than any real hatred.

Thank youuuuu, defo check out the artist they’re INCRED
@@LydiatheBardwhat the name of the artist who did the art for this?
@@isaquinos_vlogsa link to the artist is in the description, their name is twisted orchid
@@ArtsyApple22 thank you
Why did the artist and you have to both decide to make the crab alluring? With the powerful, sensual voice and that picture.
Genius .
They had to try to match tamatoas natural beauty
Tamatina 💀
*WHEEZE*
I loved this song when Moana first came out and you just made it SO MUCH BETTER! Thanks Lydia ❤
"you don't swing it like you used to, man" scratches a part of my brain for some reason
This is incredible! And that artwork, I picture her as a Witch Queen of her own kingdom with her kingdom being everything in the dark like Cecaelia like Ursula that want to be shiny like the mermaids that see them as monsters and ugly with their queen making them shiny and tricking the Mermaids and such so they become Polyps as a lesson with the Witchqueen being Ceto, mother of sea monsters
Who is cecaelia?
@@DiamondsRexpensive Mersquids
Your voice is beautiful and the artwork you used is gorgeous too!
This feels SO different like this.
Like it's Maoi's ex-girlfriend who heart he broke in hi sown arrogance. And now she's back and breaming with self confidence.
Actually this is a pretty good concept though do you think this ex would have learned to have the ability shapeshift like Maui?
the shots at his skill and traumas are all the more personal and venomous with that in mind
How do we know that’s not hay happened with the real crab? (I know his name I just forgot how to spell it-)
1:20 THE OUCH WAS OMG SENT CHILLS DOWN MY BACK, GORGEOUS, THE WHOKE SONG
FINALLYI FOUND SOMEONE WHO THINKS SAME AS NE ABOUT THIS!!!!
Hi idk if ya remember me but I was one of the who requested “Shiny” seven months ago and finally here it is-your vocals are so melody sounding and the sadistic-like tone-ah chef’s kiss 💓💓
THANK YOU

I love you both, thanks for writing this
I love your voice in this, your runs are SO good!! The art is amazing too, credits to them! ❤
Whoa 😳 this shouldn’t be a crab, it should be a siren. Because I assure you, if I heard this in the middle of a deadly storm, I’d gladly follow it to my death🤩💕
fr 😳😳
FRRR
Me and you: glady jumps off the boat
Me too
Fr I would jump headfirst to the sea
In the frist words i will be in the water
I was not expecting to be thirsting for Tamatoa today. I should have xD
Man, your voice is so glam, very suited to the whole glitzy vibe of this. You sound like Tamatoa actually managed to make himself that glamorous instead of tacky.
Both the voice and the artwork are giving me Ideas about a vid I've been wanting to make for a long time now...
Her voice is so strong, I feel pressured by such talent!
oh WOW i love Tamatoa and his song so much, didn't think it could be even better but here we are
EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS IS JUST GORGEOUS OMG!!!! Me listening to this at 1am and no regrets. My ears and eyes have been blessed ❤😊
Man.. I you told me you were secretly a siren, I would totally believe it. Your voice is gorgeous!!!
Ima be Fr and you can call me weird all you want but-
TAMATOA IS MY FAVORITE CHARACTER FROM MOANA AND NOONE CAN CHANGE MY MIND I JUST LOVE HIS ENERGY SO MUCH😭

@@JabamiLain thank you ^-^)
Love it
I love the drawing and the colors of the female version of the crab (I can’t remember his name) from the Moana movie! The song is awesome too!
The crabs name is Tamatoa
@@andrewjamison3686 thanks 😁
I used to listen to sad and angry and quiet songs from you, but this song showed me that you can sing anything with anyway,😍😍
The art, the cover... everything about this is 🔥
Can we get more Princess gone Villain songs plz they’re so good ❤
Love the personality you added! It sounds fantastic!
I just blare this on full blast whenever I shiny hunt in Pokémon.
This was such a good and fun cover Lydia! I loved this one 💜
Man I love this song so much you hit this way out of the park well done.
This cover is just killer❤😊
Now this is truly a diamond in the rock! This is fantastic!
I cannot wait for this to come out aaaa 💖💖💖
ME TOO
@@LydiatheBard omg I love you ty for replying 💖💖💖
Omg, that's my favorite song in Moana, thank you for covering it 💖
Amazing cover and amazing art 🤩
Slay Queen Lydia!
The art looks gorgeous ✨✨
Everything about this is amazing! From the art to the singing.
This channel deserve much much more appreciate
Great work. I love your covers!
Beautiful, Love your amazing voice! ✨
Amazingly, this is so perfectly paced that you can overlap this with the original song and it sounds like a duo. 10/10!
Your covers are so good!
I've never heard a song that's villainously like poison running through your veins. The original Tomato was more cheeky and vindictive, but here it's like a knife to the heart, very cool.
Beautiful! I’d love to make my own animatic with this music! With a few OCs of course.
"I'm a very busy woman and I haven't got all day"so goodlol!
This was worth the wait. LOve your stuff always queen!!
Well, Tamatoa hasn't always been this glam
I was a drab little crab once
Now I know I can be happy as a clam
Because I'm beautiful, baby
Did your granny say listen to your heart
Be who you are on the inside
I need three words to tear her argument apart
Your granny lied
I'd rather be
Shiny
Like a treasure from a sunken pirate wreck
Scrub the deck and make it look
Shiny
I will sparkle like a wealthy woman's neck
Just a sec
Don't you know
Fish are dumb, dumb, dumb
They chase anything that glitters (beginners)
Oh, and here they come, come, come
To the brightest thing that glitters
Mmm, fish dinners
I just love free food (free food)
And you look like seafood (seafood)
Well, well, well
Little Maui's having trouble with his look
You little semi-demi-mini-god
Ouch! What a terrible performance
Get the hook (get it?)
You don't swing it like you used to, man
Yet I have to give you credit for my start
And your tattoos on the outside
For just like you I made myself a work of art
I'll never hide, I can't, I'm too
Shiny
Watch me dazzle like a diamond in the rough
Strut my stuff, my stuff is so
Shiny
Send your armies but they'll never be enough
My shell's too tough
Maui man, you could try, try, try
But you can't expect a demi-god
To beat a decapod (look it up)
You will die, die, die
Now it's time for me to take apart
Your aching heart
Far from the ones who abandoned you
Chasing the love of these humans
Who made you feel wanted
You tried to be tough
But your armour's just not hard enough
Maui
Now it's time to kick your
Hiney
Ever seen someone so
Shiny
Soak it in 'cause it's the last you'll ever see
C'est la vie mon ami
I'm so
Shiny
Now I'll eat you, so prepare your final plea
Just for me
You'll never be quite as shiny
You wish you were nice and
Shiny
1:28 NO way!!! NO WAY!!!! it says Start? i allways believed it said "startle"
as he trick and spook him
I love the emotion and interpretation of this song
THIS IS A MASTERPIECE!!!!!
This is so beautiful! I love it!
Would love to hear an original song from you someday!!
First time I heard a female cover of this song. Now I can say I like this song
Absolutely amazing, like usual.
this sounds better than the original ❤
This and the Anna one are my favourite. Required: My Lullaby from Lion King 2.
Perfect song and art as always
WOAH I LOVE THIS YOU'RE SO TALENTED
The frisson from that voice, just spectacular
I love this! Great job on this cover!
I wonder how Schaffrilas would feel about this...someone should show him.
OMG THAT'S SO GOOD. MY EARS ARE BLESSED 😍😍
YA SLAYIN'
Glorious!
Oooof! You kinda outdid yourself with this one. It may not be ""clean"" but it's pretty perfect to me
this is so good!
Amazing! ❤ you should make a villain song version of The Next Right Thing from Frozen II
This is my favorite cover of the song.
I LOVE those runs
Ok normally I don’t love the song shiny it’s actually one of my least favorite moana songs but this is so damn good I love it!!!!
try to listen russian version!! so nice uwu
Thank you for this song! 😀🌺
I know I am late but I love this so much, but like.. the way you say some words is amazing 🤩
I literally just found this Channel a few days ago, and all your covers and songs are AMAZING!
this version of the crab just made me simp for him/her =D-
you pull this song off so great
Amazing job! 👑
Nice artwork and cover, Lydia 😳😳😳😳😳
That’s the most beautiful voice I have ever heard
I just imagine maui also being a girl and this is like a lesbian wlw relationship! I don’t know why, that’s immediately what I thought:}
Your voice is so beautiful!!!
Great cover!

This is my favourite one in your videos ❤❤
✨💜✨ о боже, вы прекрасны!
I love this so clean and so catchy 😍
This is so good I can not stop watching it. Keep up the good work.
I love this song so much now ❤😊I love this so much ❤
Now we need it animated.

The artwork and this cover is just *chef kiss* 👌
I LOVE SINY!!
Dang, this sounds amazing!!
The legend says in an alternative version of the Little Mermaid, this is Ursula's song
Oh and your "C'est la vie mon ami" is very good ! Kiss from France, chérie
WHO DID THIS ART PIECE- OMG... (ALSO SHE SOUNDS BEAUTIFUL)
This is interesting and enjoyable. Congrats! You nailed it :D
Did you know someone already had this type of music and it i dont if i really like it. It just wow
