You have made me legitimately enjoy this song. You cannot understand what a goddamn miracle that is. As this song emerged and reached the height of its popularity I started having to take a bus to school. I was the first one to be picked up. Even on a good day the ride was over an hour. The radio played Happy multiple times a ride, very early in the morning, every single day. This song was the bane of my soul. But I legitimately, musically enjoyed this. This feels like healing.
You have some problems that’s not with just this song. My bus driver played r&b, which is the complete opposite of the death metal I listen to…. But it never made me feel this way, and some of the song were ten times more terrible.
i think this video got recommended to me simply because you commented on it because i haven’t watched any of this guys videos before or dk rap parodies lmao

I love the implications of that line. Like this song might be something you'd learn before even knowing how to clap, or even better, that this song is so important and ubiquitous culturally that for someone to be unable to participate due to not knowing how to clap would be unacceptable.
Well, except for how they throw Lanky under the bus, but yea I was confused to. In my defense I'd never heard of the song "Happy" before now so that made it more confusing.
It was meant to be on April Fools. I was gonna do this whole thing where I pretended to be Jimmy Davis and disguise this as the Tennis Round 6. But, it got blocked so I couldn't do that.

Just when I thought the YTP community had milked the DK Rap of all its potential, here you are bringing in something that's unironically awesome and funny.
Holy cow- that was some incredible audio editing! I love how you reworked the lyrics to both fit the DK rap theme (and still somehow make everything rhyme), and to create a cleaner audio experience overall (using more fully intact words from the original audio versus splicing everything) I came here from YT recommendations, so here's hoping another round of lucky viewers will be coming to view this masterpiece soon!
@@legrandliseurtri7495 Honestly i don't even really know considering i don't really listen to the radio. I just saw some comments complaining about it and i think i remember hearing the song a bunch in the past so yeah.
Holy crap this is actually incredible. It actually seems like it's the original DK singers singing here, I'm super impressed! Keep up the good work man!
I watched this video on the 31.12 and I gotta say, this is my favorite video of the entire year. I've had tears in my eyes from laughing, awesome video!
Minions AND Donkey Kong?! Great. The banana budget's going to go through the roof. The Illumination Donkey Kong movie's gonna need to be funded by Chiquita.
This great and why the internet was invited. With that being said, I wonder what goes into these creator’s heads. “What if I took the DK rap and put it to Happy?”😂
This is a masterpiece, this simple combination of the two really flows brilliantly with the art of music. These words aren't nearly enough to describe how beautiful this creation is.

I feel the same way about what Neil Cicierega did with "Call Me Maybe."

With you here this is one

"Too complicated to explain, come, let me play you the music of my people."
Same
"No offense, but it fires in spurts." Never have I ever been so offended.
Agreed, we should cancel Donkey Kong
"rap along if you know the words but you don't know how to clap"
This song is very accessible.
@DarkGem accessible to Joe

BRO ME TOO
@@Dargonhuman Do you do lodging under your rock? It sounds peaceful

I thought the minions were added as a joke, but I completely forgot that this song was part of Despicable Me 2’s soundtrack.
I never forget that, because that's how I first heard the song

I do find it a little offensive. I have a coconut gun that I WISH fired in spurts 😒
@@nickg5341 my coconut gun is full auto😎😎
"Rap along if you know the words but you don't know how to clap"
I had a straight face up to this point, but that line made me burst out laughing
Especially the "clAP" at the end
_"Rap along if you know the words but you don't know how to clap"_
what a fucking lyrical masterpiece
Exactly right!!!!
The instrumental sounds really nice and chill
I probably spent longer on the instrumental than any other part :)
@@NPCarlsson you should release that too
@@beanstalks1028 I agree.
Adding the sounds and instruments from the game was a great decision. Definitely worth the effort my guy 👍
"Clap along if you feel like a coconut without a shell"
Why yes, I do feel like a blob of liquid.
Or the white part of the coconut
Or an M&M without the candy glaze.
Just chocolate lol
@@T1AN111 technically the shell is the green part. A coconut without a shell is what you get at the supermarket
Mood
I really appreciate how inclusive you are to people who don't know how to clap.
I died at "Rap along if you know the words but you don't know how to clap"
D.K.'s Coconut Gun: *fires in spurts*
"And I took that personally..."

NPC did the same with steamed hams. Pure genius.
sometimes, a mashup is greater than the sum of its parts. this is one of those times.
Good ending where Chunky lives.
The true ending? I hope so
Impossible
Osaker.
Well...he actually did the impossible.
He actually found a way to make this overplayed song more tolerable.
That seems to be common occurrence on this channel :)
I actually like the original song because it was actually good imo
@@NPCarlsson good job my dude!
@@mr.fearingtoon3549 ITS EVEN BETTER THE 30210TH TIME

I didn't expect it to be this good.
Oh hi Kenny fancy seeing you here!! :o love your anime vids
It really was good!
This is the song that's gonna play in the opening credits of the inevitable Illumination Donkey Kong movie starring Seth Rogan.
I wouldn't complain!
“Rap along if you know the words but you don’t know how to clap”
- Donkey Kong, 2021
Now both songs are in an illumination movie
I'm gonna make sure that I've heard this song more times than the original
Well given the fact that this song seems to play all the time...yeah good luck with that.
@@guillaumechau6082 It's still being played? Isn't the song a decade old now or something?
@@legrandliseurtri7495 Honestly i don't even really know considering i don't really listen to the radio. I just saw some comments complaining about it and i think i remember hearing the song a bunch in the past so yeah.

"Rap along if you know the words, but don't know how to clap"
Wisdom
Just noticed it say "rap along if you don't know how to clap" instead of "clap along if you don't know how to clap"
still don’t understand how your sentence mixing always ends up so good man
It's frighteningly impressive how you were able to mix this so perfectly.
Sentence-mixing the DK rap isn't just a joke anymore. You and Jimmy D have transformed it into a freaking art! Too damn clever, mate.
"Well I should probably warn ya, it's gonna hurt"
Yup, my lungs hurt.
1:45 I love how it says:
"He can't jump high."
Then, shows someone almost lifting off the ground while dancing.
That's actually incredibly hilarious, thank you for pointing it out
Already this thing Is a DK Banger of my kind of mood.
*Woah Bandicoot joins the song chat*
"rap along if you know the words but you don't know how to clap"
Outstanding lyrics
Mastery of your craft. Amazing
I can’t even imagine the amount of effort it took to make this masterpiece. Nicely done.
Instantly added to my gaming music playlist
Don't blame you
I sent this to my friend who's missing an arm.
"rap along if you know the words but you dont know how to clap"
give this man a round of applau-... never mind
*a round of rapplause*
0:47 This single shot predicted the Mario movie by Illumination.
Did not expect a full versions of this, but thank you :)
"Rap along if you know the words but you dont know how to clap" is too damn funny.
"All your limbs yeah I gonna have to break"
~SMG4
Thank you recommended only took you 8 months to show me this work of art
Holy crap this is actually incredible. It actually seems like it's the original DK singers singing here, I'm super impressed! Keep up the good work man!
Thanks! I'll try :)
Imagine the orginal VAs being able to make a cool sequel to the rap(tho Ig I think brentafloss with the "and there's chunky, he's dead....." Bit)
My recommendations have blessed me with a banger.
So glad I got this in my recommended list.
This is so good, I love how 64 era DK's defining character trait is having a Coconut Gun.
This is really quite well-done. Very creative & well-formed. Nice!
If this doesn't show up during the credits for the Mario movie... there will be outrage
I watched this video on the 31.12 and I gotta say, this is my favorite video of the entire year. I've had tears in my eyes from laughing, awesome video!
I haven't seen this channel in a minute. Glad you're still uploading.
(0:08) But all your limbs. Yeah. I’m gonna have to break
This is amazing.
Oh Yeah!
This is very happy!
Why the fuck is this on my recommendations, I love it
Why is this the best dk rap remix I've heard???
I'll admit it, I never learned how to clap, this is perfect!
This is legit one of the coolest and most talented edits I've seen.
I needed this today! This rose my spirits so high :D Lyrics and sentence-mixing are top-notch!
This is the first time I've ever enthusiastically clapped along to this entire song, I loved this ✨
This is actually fire. With how little you have to work with.
Amazin'.
DK, he's here, you can take a break!
I genuinely love this.
It is a masterpiece. Complete. Comprehensive.
I will never understand why Nintendo didn't buy Rare. Without Rare, we wouldn't have the DK Rap.
This kong is happy
Minions AND Donkey Kong?! Great. The banana budget's going to go through the roof. The Illumination Donkey Kong movie's gonna need to be funded by Chiquita.
The seamless lyrics mashup is *smack* nice.
The fact that I like a version of "Happy" now is amazing, you sir have done the impossible hahaha
Yeah, it's a good song :)
*When I saw Chunky Kong, alive and well, given some spotlight in the New Super Mario Bros Movie* :
My god the amount of work that went into this
Impeccable video, adding this to so many playlists
Hot damn, that was hella good. Best DK Rap meme I've seen before; it could legitimately stand as a song.
I needed to find this spark of joy much unchecked sooner.
Good way to end the shift so I thank you for that lol
Listening to this and starting the new year with a bang
oh man, I'm so glad this was recommended to me, it made my day!
This has officially made it into my automatic "TH-cam - My Mix" playlists constantly recommended to me
This was expertly crafted.
This is one of the BEST things I’ve heard all years!😆😆😆
1:53 THIS SLAPS SO HARD
high quality meme!
godlike editing. I really hope this blows up, because *holy shit.*
It kind of already blew up. I don't know that it needs to blow up again :)
This great and why the internet was invited. With that being said, I wonder what goes into these creator’s heads. “What if I took the DK rap and put it to Happy?”😂
This is my favorite parody of any song ever, thankyou
This is just so chill, I love it.
"So what's your taste in music like?"
Amazing.
The way he says "clap along" is still stuck in my head
This is a masterpiece, this simple combination of the two really flows brilliantly with the art of music. These words aren't nearly enough to describe how beautiful this creation is.
Me, pretending I don't know how to clap so that I'm permitted to join in with the monkey rap
Sentence-mixed DK Rap vids are always a delight!
Finally some good TH-cam recommendations
Great find to end off Donkey Kong December.
This is one of the most impressive things I've ever seen
Maybe the best sentence mixing I've ever heard, holy crap. Liked instantly.
"Rap along if you know the words but you don't know how to clap"🤣🤣
I feel like I'm about to snap back to reality any second with some doctor telling me "Did you understand what I said? You have brain damage..."
Mom's spaghetti
My new favorite mash-up!
This is literally not what I was expecting in the slightest. I was not disappointed.
Surely, based on the title, you must have expected some aspects of it.
okay this is awesome and I never thought I'd want to see this before.
