In this iconic scene, we see the prodigious Donkey Kong at his lowest point. Drained of his defining strength, and crushed under waves of self loathing, DK wails his sorrow into the cold unfeeling world in this chilling musical number. Many have speculated that the plane's erratic flight pattern prior to the opening verse is deeply rooted symbolism, for the rise, fall, and redemption of the titular biblical figure Sampson, which this genre defining story took it's inspiration from. Perhaps the infinite blue void symbolizes God, or a deity of some sort that Donkey Kong laments to. When viewed through this religious lens, the line "Can anybody tell me what I've done wrong? I'm all alone and I'm so confused." can be seen as DK questioning his faith, and for once opening his mind to the prospect of a truly random, and chaotic realm in which he is absolutely alone. While chilling to think of, this scene is iconic because of the several possible interpretations of what lies in Donkey Kong's mind, and beyond. No matter how you view it, it's hard to deny the chills that sink to one's bones when hearing DK accept his grim reality as, as he puts it, "an absolute zero." This effectively canonically chronicles DK's decent into nihilism, which of course forever echoes in the DK mythos. Just as Walter White "died" in the crawlspace, and emerged as something new, The same happen's to DK, as we see the downfall of the Kong family in years to come. Of course, as God allowed Sampson his strength back for one final righteous slaughter, the bulls-eye banana restores strength back to a whole new entity, one that only barely resembles Donkey Kong on the surface. Overall, this scene is timeless, and damn flawless too. I've yet to see another like it with as much thematic relevancy, and raw emotion. Truly, a perfect scene.

@@parker-boy98 here’s my idea of a plot that could incorporate this song. Mario and the rest of the mushroom kingdom are chilling until Bowser and his army decides to mess it up as usual, this time more powerful than ever, and also in the process kidnaps Peach. Bowser then decides to ruin Donkey Kong’s jungle, enraging him. Afterwards, Mario, knowing he can’t possibly beat Bowser and his army, decides to recruit his brother Luigi, Toad, and Donkey Kong, in a truce. They go along on a long adventure where they meet a ton of enemies that they’re mostly able to get by with ease. However, mid way there, they get attacked by a small army of Bowser’s army, and somehow lose because Donkey Kong was blind to the true danger that it held. After they’re beaten and shown that there is almost no hope of ever getting Peach back, at least in the group they’re currently in, they get into a big argument and split their ways. Mario, Luigi and Toad go on their way to try and beat Bowser. Donkey Kong, feeling humiliated and knowing that he can’t ever possibly beat Bowser on his own, decides to not go through with the plan at first to beat Bowser on his own, and then runs away to hill in a snow filled land, where this song plays

It was one of the first animated series to use motion tracking for lip movements and motions, but the models they used didn't fit that style, problem with mid 90's cg at the time, Reboot has some of the same problems
I think that rumor might have been debunked, but I believe it was also claimed to be DK's dialogue actor (Richard Yearwood) rather than his Singing actor (Sterling Jarvis)
@@infinitypilot unless Kong figures out how to make battle armor something similar I don't see the fight being very long, either that or we can expect massive writer cop-out as is the tradition for VS scenarios Just imagine one of them falling and going "MOTHRAAAAA!!" and the other going "what! why would you say that name!"
I don’t know where I heard this song before but I was convinced this was some early 2000’s punk rock song. I’ve been searching for this. And it’s some fucking animated donkey Kong shit. Incredible
I really want to put "I dont know what anyone wants me to be. I just only know how to be me" as like a bio for some sort of social media and when someone says "Wow thats deep" i can say "Yea its from the donkey kong country animated series"
Its freaking bananas (ha ha) to me that projared said "the songs in this show range from Ok (or bad i forgot) to god awful" when yeah some tracks arent that good but tracks like these prove that some of the songs in this show are actually really good. Probably that "everything is either really bad or really good" mentality of reviewers at the time
The spanish dub sounds sadder at the end... He goes: "Ya no soy un heroe..." "Y eso me duele..." Which on english it translates to: "Now im not a hero..." "And that hurts me a lot..." This shit goes deep man...
It's bizarre, yet fascinating how out of all the 90's cartoon shows an animation adaptation about Donkey Kong Country has some of the best original music I have ever listened to.
"I don't know what everyone wants me to be. I only know just how to be me." this Donkey Kong cartoon is giving me an existential crisis that I didn't ask for.
Sudden Elephant generations was not that good. For a anniversery game it was to short and they changed all the voice actors even though the fans knew what they should sound like. (Shadows new voice was the worst)
The writing is lackluster, the animation on anything but the fight scenes is lazy at best, most of the characters are walking stereotypes. Don't get me wrong, I admire the fuck out of Monty pursuing his dream and making it a reality, but the show just isn't really for me, I just never really saw the hype honestly.
This is the first episode in the show that I genuinely enjoyed. Everybody said the show was terrible and didn’t deserve any credit, but I didn’t listen. I watched this show, and this is evidence that the show really was something special.
when you think about it he is laying on a coconut cream pie and he showered himself in coconut cream pie and he was caught doing it and now he is depression kong
Clickbait37 I wouldn’t say the show was bad. I say it was the animation It was the 90s and motion capture was fairly new. Overall, I think it’s great with amazing music

The best song from DKC TV Series. The fact that the Japanese dub omitted this musical number from the episode is a travesty.
Nay! It was Heresy!
*japanese dub*
@@TurtleYTPMV Yeah you act like there's something wrong with that
@@Dr.AutismGod just surprised by a Japanese dub of monkey kong
@@TurtleYTPMV Not too surprising, when you remember that Donkey Kong was originally a Japanese game.
It really says something about the music industry when I'd rather listen to Donkey Kong than the radio.
eddrulz Aquatic Ambiance?
Oh yes that song is fantastic. So much atmosphere.
Ikr!
Amen to that.
@@Robertybob_ So true.
Why did this show have such great music?
cuz feels bro.
***** Cuz Expand Dong, nuf said.
sentientcloud it had a few good songs. Everything else was bad.
(coughcough) Metal Head/The First Song of the Series (whatever the heck THAT was).
sentientcloud "I shower you with coconut cream pies." Not all of it was good.
If Seth Rogan sings this, his casting will be worth it.

Indeed. It adds to the emotion of the scene.

True cinema.
This could actually be a real song if "ape of the hour" were replaced with "man of the hour."
but... aren’t men apes anyway?
GrungeKid_27 well, human beings are classified as primates... and no, I’m not referring to the Pokémon of the same name.
Nah, man. Reject humanity, return to monke.
@Rosestars
I think they mean "real" as from some kind of acclaimed indie artist in the music industry instead of part of a 90s early CGI cartoon.
Is that what he says!? I thought it was "ape of the isle"
Why isn't there a full version of this masterpiece? DK's singer was so good holy shit.
th-cam.com/video/cloDf7WXm9M/w-d-xo.html
Richard Yearwood was the actor for DK. If only they had made a full version with him.
@@wetaughted4640 The singing was done by a different guy. I believe it was Sterling Jarvis.
Its freaking bananas (ha ha) to me that projared said "the songs in this show range from Ok (or bad i forgot) to god awful" when yeah some tracks arent that good but tracks like these prove that some of the songs in this show are actually really good. Probably that "everything is either really bad or really good" mentality of reviewers at the time
The only song DK’s VA did was the Golden Banana song
Hiring the most angelic singer for a vg character who's essentially a berserker had to be some sort of inside joke.
Before there was Let It Go, there was I'm Nobody's Hero.
And I'm Nobody's Hero was actually good
I like Let It Go!
WHY THE HECK DOES THIS SOUND LIKE A 90S R&B LOVE SONG????
AND WHY DO I KEEP LISTENING TO IT XD
The show is from the 90s after all :D
The whole show was just trying to catch the trend of late 90s R&B
This shit a bop
When I was little I thought NSync would be amazing to cover this song!
Lmao all the budget for this show went to the music crew.
And i ain't upset about it!!
i am, cause diddy exists
And DKs ass cheeks.
No, the show doesn't look that way because of the budget, but because it was the first time someone made a only motion capture tv show
I’m okay with that. This show has amazing music
得Toxic Fubi agreed
The spanish dub sounds sadder at the end...
He goes:
"Ya no soy un heroe..."
"Y eso me duele..."
Which on english it translates to:
"Now im not a hero..."
"And that hurts me a lot..."
This shit goes deep man...
indeed.

It's bizarre, yet fascinating how out of all the 90's cartoon shows an animation adaptation about Donkey Kong Country has some of the best original music I have ever listened to.
The video game trilogy was so good in the creator’s eyes that they made an entire tv show based off of it.
He ran out of coconut cream pies to shower us with
That's what he did wrong

ginko baloba this had me dead 😂
"I don't know what everyone wants me to be. I only know just how to be me."
this Donkey Kong cartoon is giving me an existential crisis that I didn't ask for.
Man, Donkey Kong has a great voice.
He should be on American idol.
Gonna be honest, until I heard "I was the ape" I thought this was a real pop song dubbed over the scene.

That pfp goes well with your comment
*Crying in American*
Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze bad ending.
Out of context, this looks like Donkey Kong is a businessman having a midlife crisis.
This is, honestly, a quality song. Kind of surprising coming from a show that is pretty much universally described as terrible.
I never thought it was awful.
That show was actually my childhood
The animation didn't age well, but besides that it's nowhere near terrible
it's not "pretty much universally described as terrible". It was very popular and well received in Japan and France. I liked it a lot myself.
This is beautiful. Shrek is proud of you, young dong expansion.
Eh?

@@cyclops8238 Yeah ik it’s a different actor but his singing voice is actually really nice sounding

This is Sonic after Sonic Boom

Hey don't worry maybe you'll get a good game next ti- BWAHAHA I couldn't do it
Sonic runners....BOOM!
I don't think it's going to be good, you haven't had a good game since adventures and generations
Sudden Elephant generations was not that good. For a anniversery game it was to short and they changed all the voice actors even though the fans knew what they should sound like. (Shadows new voice was the worst)
Why is his voice so good when he sings
little late but its a different VA

+Tyrannosaurus Chexmix Why don't you like RWBY? Im curious. Im not a fan of 3d anime neither. But RWBY is particularly good
The writing is lackluster, the animation on anything but the fight scenes is lazy at best, most of the characters are walking stereotypes. Don't get me wrong, I admire the fuck out of Monty pursuing his dream and making it a reality, but the show just isn't really for me, I just never really saw the hype honestly.
Why don't you like boku no pico? I'm curious. I'm not a fan of gay anime neither. But boku no pico is particularly good
Hey a Sucy picture!
These comments are so random.
When you’re happy, listen to a song for the music.
When you’re sad, you listen to a song for the lyrics.

This is the first episode in the show that I genuinely enjoyed. Everybody said the show was terrible and didn’t deserve any credit, but I didn’t listen. I watched this show, and this is evidence that the show really was something special.
This show deserves better just as much as spongebob does

This is Spyro after Skylanders.
This is Sonic after Sonic Forces?
BEC Enterprises Sonic Forces and Skylanders are both good games
Nathan Williams Yeah, I used to like Skylanders but now they’re milking it like crazy. Sonic Forces could’ve been better but it was okay.
BEC Enterprises Well I agree about milking Skylanders but the toys to life thing is a pretty cool ideal
Not anymore! Classic Spyro is back. He's getting a remake of his original games.
I once took a heroic dose of mushrooms and bawled my eyes out to this song. In that moment, I was Donkey Kong, and I felt his pain.
Wow, his singing voice is BEAUTIFUL! Seriously, DK could make a best selling album with that voice.
The sad thing is that this show had amazing music for how crappy the show was.
Clickbait37 it wasn't crappy
It's like the room, it's so bad it's good
But the cgi is so wierd looking but they look so strange that it's hilarious
I loved it
Clickbait37 I wouldn’t say the show was bad. I say it was the animation It was the 90s and motion capture was fairly new. Overall, I think it’s great with amazing music
@@JustJustin0225 Toy Story came out before this show and that had great CGI for its time. Just because this was was made in the 90s that doesn't excuse why it looks bad.
@@xboxed7202 Toy story was made by pixar so they definitely had a way larger budget to work with
I really hope Sterling Jarvis has an awesome music career because his voice is so magical!!
The fact that so many songs from this show were absolute bangers speaks volumes about the musicians working on the show at the time.
I feel the same way about Sonic Underground!
