    I love how Leongar doesn't seem to hold humanity in contempt of leaving them behind, instead wishing to join with mankind wherever they are, intending to share their own knowledge they have gained with humanity. It's only after Forgo takes over that he starts to delve into the evil side and claim that all will bend to their command, intending to "take back the kingdom we had before." Also the Lion King references are well placed too, as when he's more sane he quotes Mufasa (Everything light touches falls within judgment of the animal king/Everything the light touches is our kingdom) and then when Forgo takes over, he quotes Scar with "Be Prepared"

    That's odd I thought Mufasa died
    Jokes aside, this cover is awesome. It conveys Leongar's longing for ascension into the "Land of Dreams" that the former inhabitants of the forgotten land went to, and Darby's voice is SO GOOD AS LEONGAR LIKE WOW. Of course, Fecto Forgo taking over at the end was a nice touch too, and gives us a taste of what the Two Planets Approach The Roche Limit cover (and possible Hunted By The Beast?) will sound like. Overall, great job! Definitely worth the wait!
    EDIT: Just realised that the font of Leongar's lyrics is the same font that Dedede used in the Forgo Dedede cover when he reverted to his primal instincts. The fact that Leongar's font is always like this shows that he is completely wild, being the King of The Beasts. Nice touch!

      Also, if you notice, he uses lyrics from both Dedede and Gorimondo. “Yet you stand in our way”/“heed the call of the wild”. What’s amazing is how Darby uses a grand and prideful for Leongar, showing his determination to bring the wild to that “land of dreams”, and when Forgo takes over, Juno shows Forgo’s rage and anger over being separated and contained, desiring one thing: revenge; not just on man for their interference, but also Kirby (the ball)and Dedede (the boar) for their interference and defiance.

And speaking of Mufasa, I'm gonna be honest, his voice (done by the amazingly talented James Earl Jones [the same guy who did the voice for Darth Vader in the original "Star Wars" trilogy], in *both* the original animated version from the '90s, and the live action version from the 2010s) is actually my headcanon voice for Leongar; because, it fits.

  • @ViviRosey

    I loved this cover! It captured the sad story behind Leongar purrfectly
    Leongar is the king of the beast who doesn't want to hurt anyone but had to, to give his people the world that they deserve. The lyrics capture his proud, yet kind, yet serious attitude. I love that he never ever blames Kirby or the others for the fate that occurred to Leon and the Beast Pack, he even acknowledges them as blessed and how they got what he and the others desperately desire. He doesn't even say that he wants to hurt the 'blessed ones' his dream is to live in peace with mankind and I love how you portrayed it!
    As I mentioned, he sounds desperate and that's exactly what you can hear during the song! Darby did a fantastic job with his voice acting here! It starts with Leon singing in a proud and kind of royal way, but proceeds to sound really angry and desperate during the end!
    The lyrics definitely did his character justice:
    A proud king that was left behind with his people desperate to give himself and his kind a little spark of hope and a happy life in a land of dreams, a king who would've done anything to escape this forgotten land he would even put his entire life in some 'god creature' who could give those dreams to him and his people, but he couldn't Be Prepared for the powers and goals that lived within his only last spark of hope...
    I don't say it lightly when I say that this is a 10/10 but this cover definitely is a 11/10 and deserves way more praise

      If I may add my two cents, In game it's explained that Leongar wasn't actually in control of his body and mind but rather Fecto Forgo was controlling him. Leon doesn't speak in any other way aside from meows and the like. So him speaking English was not actually him, but Fecto Forgo using him as a puppet. The way I interpreted the lyrics is similar to yours, but it's possible Fecto used their powers to not fully mind control him, but maybe brainwash him up until the second phase of the fight. Then it's straight up mind control!

    Wow, to say you and Darby did this song justice is an understatement. Nice lyrics, beautifully performed, but you ultimately earned my like at the Be Prepared reference. (That happens to be my favourite song from The Lion King) Also, I like how you kept this 'drip feed'(?) going, with Dedede's songs both building up to this, Masked and Wild D.D.D dropping a hint of Forgo, and now this song not only capturing Leongar's character perfectly, but also feeding into Forgo's plot, and inevitably their own songs.

    Coming back for another listen I just noticed something, when Leongar still is in control of himself the lyrics are mainly about the pack as a whole with references to Mufasa's lines in Lion King mixed in, then when Forgo takes over it shifts to being all about him with the references instead being Scar's villain song, very nice touch

    Ayyy, the song is here! I was honestly hooked when I heard Darby's voice as Leongar. He makes him sound like a chorus leader and the Beast Pack is the chorus. I was on my toes during the entire song! It was just THAT good. Keep up the grand work, Juno!

      I mean I would want the Forgo fight to be on Elfilin’s POV, with him and Kirby being horrified at what Forgo did to Leongar and other members of the pack. See, I think what would be interesting is that Forgo wouldn’t be able to talk until becoming Elfilis again once they gain Elfilin, who can talk.

    The past two Kirby tracks feel a bit better as complete songs, but you definitely chose the right guy for Leon! Darby did great keeping him proud, yet almost understanding or diplomatic, until peaking with a more intimidating, direct, and fearsome end segment. Looking a little closely, did you keep the art piece up longer than usual to mask his limited health? If so, pretty clever! Speaking of clever, though, part of me *really* hopes releasing today is a coincidence...
    Edit: Wait... "Ball and the Boar stand be..." pffffff, nice one.
