Went to Great America yesterday and they were playing this song while we were standing in line. My son and I were dancing to it and having a great time while waiting.
I still love this ride despite the roughness of it. The theming and theatrical effects are perfect. This music just makes me feel nostalgic for a time I was never alive. This song makes me think that this demon lurks in the dark, yet he could also transform into a more humanoid look, suave suit and tie, and ask to dance with you.
Every Friday my friend sends this video to me, every week I sit there and listen- it then is stuck in my head the entire week and when it finally leaves it’s suddenly Friday again and the whole process starts over
I loved working at this place. I ran the hot shop which sold mugs of root beer for 5C, I was there bartender and I could send a mug of soda from where I pour the contents and it would come sliding down the bar and stop with the handle facing you. I also remember the manager of the different departments we all worked at would come up to us when we were about to punch out and say, "thanks for coming in today, You did a great job." This compliment made me want to come back the next day. I don't think they have the HOP SHOP there any more. Sir Charlie Brown
I wish someone had the other audio they would play with the new reporters tracking attacks and such by "The Demon" around the track and such. I recall this would be played for a bit and then this awesome song would roll. Last time I was in line this year, I yelled at the ride operator and made her turn this up.
I went on the demon when I was like 5 or 6 or 7 and it was so cool and my girly brother was scared to go again so I had to ride next to some random stranger and I couldn't pull my bar thing down and I was scared that the ride would start with my bat still up and I was going to fly off
Being pretty tall this ride hurt my shoulders like hell because of the lack of padding and all of the bumps, but goddamn I cannot get this song out of my head
you cant escape being hurt by this ride, if your tall your shoulders get crushed, if your short your head gets banged around, still one of the best themed rollercoasters in the world.
Why do the arrows get so much hate? Demon is one of the smoother arrows, my god. Yes, the corkscrews give insane headbanging but it doesn't bother me. This was only my third looping coaster, like seriously. Just lean to the right on the corkscrews and you don't get as much headbanging.
Demon is my favorite coaster ever. I have never understood the complaints because the roughness has always been my favorite part of it! Plus, for air time lovers, it has the strongest ejector air time I have ever felt no matter your location in the cars.
Was there yesterday, and they did not play this song. But the ride yesterday was a lot better than it was last time it went on 4 years ago. Most likely since I am taller now I was able to keep my head from banging against the restraints.
The demon song is a 10/10 for cheesiness. The ride itself tried to forcibly remove my head from my shoulders through the back to back corkscrew finale. Lived up to its name, I suppose.
@@indian_coaster_enthusiast ITS 40 YEAR OLD if they change the track its not the demon anymore, it's just an old ride that introduced the concept of multiple loops AND a corkscrew
@@havelthedeadinside1799 actually, i am pretty sure corkscrew @Cedar Point beat Demon to it. I respect Demon for what it is, but that does not change my opinion of it being a boring ride.
@@madduxvalencia9718 WAT. U GUYS ARE WAY MORE BRAVE THAN I AM. I went on the demon when I was ten tho. The six flags I go to the demon shut down. I hated it tho
okay but this still *slaps*
True though
You’re right
100%
You silly dood your only food
Facts
I feel like every rollercoaster should have their own theme song
Shockwave should have had HIS own song!! He was always "Electroshockwave" for FrightFest.
Why can't rollercoasters have awesome songs like this today while waiting in long lines to ride them?
They have restored this song to play in line once again
X flight kinda has one
This song is delightfully disco.

MkaMee ML not the one in Santa Clara they don’t play it at all.
Six Flags wouldn't see another absolute musical treasure until We Like to Party was released in 1999
yes
Marriott was the one to come up with this!
I enjoyed this song more than the ride.
Huggbees I dance my way to my seat
WAIT YOUR A ROLLERCOASTER ENTHUSIAST? I FUCKING LOVE YOUR HOW IT'S MADE VIDEOS!!
Thank you for making me aware of this song, it slaps.
Lol💃
Was the ride a rinsing or filling machine?

Happy Friday! 😂
The Ride is painful but its still one of my most favorite coasters of all time, also this song is a banger
"The Demon...he's gonna shake you..."
YES the HOLY HELL he will.
keep your head back!
cgsilverscreen2020 go on the whizzer then say the demon is rough
That's Arrow for ya!
😂 its true..we rode it last weekend the demon left hooked then chin checked me lol.
@@sharkmanxbro7082 I have been on the Whizzer. The Demon is far rougher.
Don’t keep your head back. Float your head and won’t absorb the impact as much
My mom still sings this song whenever we're in line for this ride. She's grown up going to the old Marriott so she remembers this
Your mom is a queen 👑
Your mom is a good 😊
Me to great times.
i love when roller coasters have their own theme songs. it’s pretty damn cool
absolutely love the rollercoaster but the song makes it so much better at the entrance and something to get hyped as hell for

gets ya jazzed to get your head rocked against the seat

Gary Owens was the voice of the scary male announcer in the station audio. I instantly recognized him in 2006, waiting for the ride to start.
Great American Thrills posted it on TH-cam!
I easily found it th-cam.com/video/aXSC7g7DvFA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=fhgY6wDe45m6Hxj5
Went to Great America yesterday. This song was playing while we were standing in line. It was great
of all coasters to have a theme song, give it to the most painful one at the park.
That's the beauty -and irony- of it 😉
So y'all don't remember iron wolf then
@@evanvicker5758 fr man, Iron Wolf was BRUTAL back in the day. Glad they got rid of it tbh
@@RAMENn00dleb0y it was kinda rough, but man I’d be lying if I didn’t enjoy it. Maybe it’s the nostalgia-
Shockwave is laughing at all of you from its grave.
Me age 7, never been on a rollercoaster before, this song blasting, mmmmm the nostalgia
I went on the demon when I was like 5 or 6 or 7 and it was so cool and my girly brother was scared to go again so I had to ride next to some random stranger and I couldn't pull my bar thing down and I was scared that the ride would start with my bat still up and I was going to fly off

It's Halloween, time to enjoy this song again!
The demonnn!!!! Front row baby!
EVERYTIMEEEEEE
song slaps, ride slaps (literally, ride it and you’ll know)
Still played to this day! Best roller-coaster song!!!
you cant escape being hurt by this ride, if your tall your shoulders get crushed, if your short your head gets banged around, still one of the best themed rollercoasters in the world.
I never found it rough
The demon on my six flags is 40 and still as awesome.
Standing in a 2 hr line 1982...my older brother also performed for HISTORY OF ROCK 1982-83
I'd give anything to just go back and be 17 years old again to ride this coaster at Marriotts Great America.
Had this in my head, or parts of it, for the last 30 years or so. Nice to hear it in its entirety!
Gonna ride it this summer for 1st time
Good song and a OG roller coaster and my favorite
Wish they had this on Spotify =(
best q song. it just OOOOZES 1998. what a relic.
1980
3 people have never seen the demon.
love this song
I forgot about this!
As far as theme songs go, The Demon is the Buck Bumble of rollercoasters
It used to be faster back in the 80s from what I've read.
@@mistermoo7602 wow- when I went on it i thought i was gonna die but it was FASTER BEFORE- omg-
The demon i rode on shut down.
This is basically ever 60s/70s like song
Sounds like some old commercial jingle.. Rode this in 1981 and it was very smooth.. now it's just rough.

Definitely

I never knew I needed to find something so much
This is my jam
has no reason to slap as hard as it does
I won't to be mad at waiting in line as long as this music is playing
Five Turn of the Century elitists disliked
I love the Demon ride
Take that Disney
This song hits
I love the demon
Make no mistake, The Demon will certainly shake you
this song is peak 🔥🔥🔥
This is such a bop
Was there yesterday, and they did not play this song. But the ride yesterday was a lot better than it was last time it went on 4 years ago. Most likely since I am taller now I was able to keep my head from banging against the restraints.
I'M GETTING FLASHBACKS FOR WHEN I WENT ON IT HELP
this song is the best ever
Who remembers the Demon VR experience on the ride? That was rad.
I remember that, it was also really hard to enjoy though
"The Demon, he's gonna shake you"
TRUE! lmao. Can attest.
The demon he’s gonna get ya 😮
The demon song is a 10/10 for cheesiness. The ride itself tried to forcibly remove my head from my shoulders through the back to back corkscrew finale. Lived up to its name, I suppose.
I came here from gp to enthusiast and jamming
Doesn’t even sound like a roller coaster soundtrack
More sounds like a Halloween song
it did in 1980 !! I remember it well ! (we waited 2 hours to ride it that year)
@@enighbert1Sounds more like those 60s parody songs they did on early SNL... CHEVY'S GIRLS anyone????
The Demon has such a catchy theme song
I love the Dimon ride
The demon likes my neck to crack
this is a banger and i know bangers
Hopefully the Demon never has another paralysis attack
Do they only play this in the queue for the one at Six Flags Great America, or do they also play it at California's Great America also?
This song is an absolute classic. I really wish the coaster was as good as the song...
It iss you just have to be prepared its 40 ofc its gonna be a bumpy boy
@@havelthedeadinside1799 Yea... but the layout is just so uninspired...

@WaterishDog see... I liked viper. I hated Demon
Did Hanna Barbera made this song? Because I could tell by its Scooby Doo like tone and it’s singers
Gene Patrick and Tom Merriman made it
The Swarm out here really thinking it was the first ever rollercoaster to have a single
Xoxo I love it
And it’s not on Spotify why?!?!?!
please tell me who sings this song
The TM Male Jingle Singers sung this theme for Marriott's Great America's The Demon roller coaster in 1980.
I don't sing it.
But I do dance to it.
...when Great America was still an actual theme park!
He sounds like Mr. Burns.
Haha
This a fuckin bop
Does this play at California’s Great America as well?
Used to..
Somebody needs to sample this
🔥
respect
Rip DEMON 🫡
the king lives on!
is this on itunes???
Please tell me they still play this in the queue
They do I just went on it today and heard it
because its fire af
There is only things that I'm scared of and that's the demon and I'm a Fearless man
I should go use it in Vyond.

Coaster Brain wasn’t expecting someone from gp2e down here
Coaster Brain same lol
This song was better than the ride haha
2:35

I went on the demon and I was only 8
I went on Goliath at Great America when I was 9
@@madduxvalencia9718 WAT. U GUYS ARE WAY MORE BRAVE THAN I AM.
I went on the demon when I was ten tho.
The six flags I go to the demon shut down.
I hated it tho
the song good but the ride not so good
