If I had to put what op said into my own words “I’m going to kick your ass for stealing my flow but at least you gave this ass kicking a good background”
I love how genuine bowser sounds when he's saying "your powers of darkness are really really lame" like he's not even trying to insult him he's just being honest and that feels like it'd hurt more
7:10 I love how Bowser specifically tells Dark Bowser (and I guess Dark Star and Fawful by extension) that his “name is not among those who could best his Koopa might”. He acknowledges that there are people in the world that can challenge and even beat him *cough* Mario *cough* But he’s also making very sure to tell this shadowy little wannabe of a villain is NOT among those who come even close to defeating him.
Actually 🤓 in Mario and Luigi Dream Team, the dream stone ONLY grants wishes you truly want. At the end of the game, Bowser wished for Mario and Luigi to disappear. Notice how the dream stone just did nothing..... he doesn't want to beat Mario.....
I love how MotI's version has Bowser saying all these grandiose lines "Now I step down to see if a shadow can bleed" and Juno's just has him say really immature and petty insults. Both work really well, leaning into different sides of his character. He can be both silly, but also pretty intimidating.
The best part is that Juno's portrayal of Bowser is childish and narcissistic while MotI's portrayal is imposing and downright evil, which both are fitting to his character
@@vestaviriit's the difference between a cartoon villain who is a dramatic showman and an adult villain who isn't there for a fun show (e.x. Doofimsmets and alternative dimension doof [movie 2d dimension] who is confident evil)
I absolutely love the use of repeating lyrics in this. When the Dark Star says "Who are you" it's doing a classical evil villain monologue. Who are these puny mortals, to get in the way of an arcane force that's been around for centuries? When Bowser says "Who are you" he's spitting in the face of some copycat schmuck who's touting their own ego. He's the Koopa King, and no one's going to stand in his way, dark god or not. And when the Mario Bros say "Who are you", they're saying that Fawful and the Dark Star have NO RIGHT to destroy the Kingdom's peace. It's great lyric writing. Honestly, this song is just fantastic, a great tribute to this channel's 5 years.
Don't forget the "Who are you" during the key change. It's Bowser saying "Who are you to believe yourself that you had a ghost of a chance to beat yours truly?" He's the Koopa King and won't let some schmucking copycat take his name and face and get away with it. One single KO punch was enough to make his point clear. Never mess with the King of the Koopas.
I love the back and forth between Bowser and Dark Bowser like it's a slugfest. DB has RPG final boss speeches down to an art, and Bowser basically drew a cartoonishly large moustache on the Mona Lisa out of ego. Mario's and Luigi's parts were good but that last key change from Bowser really crowned him the true champ of this Grand Finale.
because unlike before, where he is the big bad final boss, he is THE PROTOGANIST of his own game, and this is HIS GREATEST MOMENT. the final boss is all him, this is the monster that born from Darkstar stealing his DNA, and Pride of the KOOPA KING does not allow any imposters or usurpers, which Dark Bowser tried both. this is HIS GRAND FINALE, and he will beat you down, and sing on your grave while doing it.
Not sure if Juno will notice this... But even with the remaster, both Juno and MOTI's covers of The Grand Finale are both very amazing. Both with strengths and weaknesses. Both with amazing voice acting and amazing artwork. Both well written to the very core. Finally, both has Bowser being badass in this final showdown. In conclusion, I respect both covers and they both deserve recognition.
I saw both covers a long time ago when they had just come out, but I never finished the game and never saw either of them again so this is giving me a lot of flashbacks lol
Seeing and hearing the difference of the same song 4 years apart really makes me smile to see how far Juno has come not just as a singer or an artist, but as a person.
It's so wild that you make all your own art. I loved how both Castle Bowser and Peach were drawn in Rage Stage, but here? The framing, the poses, the EVERYTHING! All the new art is so good, and the final shot of Bowser holding Dark Bowser by the throat is so RAW!
And I thought I was the only one that had all attention caught by that neck grabbing scene! Now that I think about it, If I got myself in the scenario, I would be grabbing my shadow clone the moment I see it!
I will always prefer the Mario and Luigi version of Bowser. He isn't dramatic, just confident and believes he can do basically anything without a doubt.
Bowser in normal games: "oh no you threw me in lava peach is yours I lost again" Bowser in M&L dream team: "oh, you thought that Antasma guy was the final boss? Too bad, the dream stone is mine and all my wishes shall come true."
The added lines to show Dark Bowser's arrogance, The changes to Bowser's to make him even more confident and proud, That _grand finale_ with the key change as Bowser taunts DB before finally finishing it... Even a smaller change like having Fawful cry out as he's defeated had *ME* yelling out! This is MORE than a worthy remaster. Its a reMASTERPIECE!
@@KumatorasLittleCutie-Pieto be fair it’s pretty fitting, like Luigi said, he’s lost who he is, he probably doesn’t even remember why he’s fighting anymore since he’s such a shell of his former self
@@KumatorasLittleCutie-Pie I think it'd be a bit out of character tbh, kupo. Fawful doesn't look like the kind of villian to sing, and his unique dialouge doesn't make for good song verses, kupo. Dark Bowser doesn't have that problem, and neither does Bowser, kupo. Fawful is about presentation and detail but not lyrical presentation, kupo. But Bowser on the other hand, kupo... *looks to Adventure's End, this remake, and the original Grand Finale* Bowser is one to show off, kupo.
@@guardianboreal1432 I'd like to butt in and say he literally is the only villain to my knowledge that does sing in ML. Plus there's another cover that came out a few months ago (In the Final with Lyrics) that I think did a good job with giving him lyrics without making his mannerisms "too much". Also to the whole "lost himself" angle some people are saying, he still can talk before and after the fight.
Bowser has always been my favorite character in Mario games and i feel 2:05 explains this entirely. You pretty much just captured bowser's entire personality in a couple lines absolutely insane and i love it good work
He’s the GOAT of video game villains! It’s no wonder why he’s the most popular video game villain of all time! Just like there’s probably not a single person who doesn’t know Mario, there’s not one person who doesn’t know Bowser.
Now that's an upgrade. I know more versions can exist, but this one can actually stand up to MOTI. Now both versions are really great. Also nice to hear the references to the MOTI Version in the Mario Bros.
This is easily my favorite DX version ever published on this channel, especially with how you incorporated new bits then doubled down and added a whole end bit with a key change. Excited for the potential of any future DX covers assuming more come out down the line.
I said it once, I'll say it again. This is the one moment in the eyes of the Mushroom Kingdom where Bowser is the true hero. Disregard his intentions. Forget why he's there. A Toad is floating up at the tip of the arena looking down at the beast that caused the windstorm, and what does he see fighting this thing to the end? Bowser, the Koopa King. NOT Mario and Luigi. God almighty, I wish Peach was awake to see this, as she certainly would have given Bowser so much more credit for the Kingdom's salvation than she did already.
Bro, this is absolutely amazing, I loved the original, but this is just leagues above that. I also love how Bowser tells the shadow that it wasn't even in the list of people bowser knew could best him
Of course, Dark bowser is just that, a dark copy of the Great Koopa King. him taking the form of Bowser is both a compliment to bowser, because hey, imitation is the biggest flattery, and the GREATEST insult you can ever direct to Big Bad BOWSER. and because he is made by his dna, he can not defeat Bowser.
Juno made this song go insanely hard but still has the comedy from Bowser. Bowser's voice is just incredible and crazy that you could sing in that voice. The final piece of art just looks amazing with the rain. Amazing job.
I thought this was amazing 4 years ago... Little did I know I'd be back here in 2024 rocking out one of my all-time favorites, perfection reigns supreme with the Koopa's power once more, well done Juno, giving the Grand Finale a well-deserved encore!
Don't worry you'll be getting Peaches (Great Value) soon, tomorrow probably because I want to make sure Grand Finale gets a chance to shine and not overwhelm people's notifications
@@hugodellamun6209 I prefered it like that actually. Mario's been through this song and dance so many times by now that he's got enough confidence that he and Luigi will save the day that he's not even worried about that anymore.
The finale of this finale was easily one of the best moments in any of the songs shown from the stream. The best DX song you’ve made Juno, hope you can have a good rest after Bowsember!
Gotta say, love the added/changed lyrics in this DX edition! Bowser's exuding confidence, Dark Bowser establishing his world-conquering, and the Bros. working in tandem to crush a remnant of their past foe, it's just fantastic! Great job on this one Juno, definitely putting Bowser Time to good use!
Somehow, every time you or MotI comes out with a new version of this song, I find a new favorite version. This would be a fun thing to go back and forth on like you did with megalovania, but I doubt that’d ever happen. Congrats on the anniversary man, I hope you stick around for a while.
After the rager that was Bowser's Rage Stage, this was very much a welcome surprise, and an extreme source of hype! I mean, this song's got it all! *New Lyrics! *A new Bowser insult *All the classic Bowser insults *_*THE KEY CHANGE!_* And the lead-up was beyond amazing! I mean, the part where the chat gave Bowser the Bowser power to take down his dark doppelganger felt like we were holding Miracle Lights at a Pretty Cure movie! Simply put, this is beyond "peak". This is *_GODLIKE!_*
honestly, this is a great take on lyrics. bowser's throwing playground insults like a cartoon character, and he has zero fear of his dark copy. outright bullying him while mario and luigi are taking this seriously, but still with an air of comedy, fitting for the literal mario bros. dark bowser keeps trying to pull his dark god shtick, but just gets cut off completely so bowser can flex on him more. kickass!
Bowser cutting Dark Star off for his second verse is honestly the most in character bit of this entire video The key change finale section also goes unbelievably hard
Wow I really liked this remaster, adding Dark Bowser and re-working some of the odd lyrics. Well, since the brothers are wrapping up the last verse I guess I'll close off the video- "KEY CHANGE!" Yeah the final part made this just- perfect, thank you Juno.
That line "The koopa king will never die, never die, NEVER DIE!" it's so true, no matter how many times he gets beaten by mario, he will always get up and try again, no matter how frustrating is, he never gives up, this is why bowser is one of the greatest villains ever.
I like to headcanon that _all_ three versions "happened" to Bowser (both Juno's and MOTI's covers), and the Spamton fight was in between, so Bowser's just got some serious pent-up rage after the Spamton fight, and seeing Fawful "back for round three" just made him _Ascend to the Done Tiers_ and be like "no, you're not happening a THIRD time, go away", and that's why he sounds so more energetic in this remastering. He's already been there done that and is pissed he has to "how many times do we have to teach you this lesson, old man" Dark Bowser's face in _again._
6:36 The art shows OG Bowser having Dark Bowser by the throat, but the key change makes me imagine that Bowser is just slamming DB in Super Smash Brothers. DB is just a ragdoll as Bowser utilizes every single one of his attacks against the dark impostor. *Edit: fixed typo*
Absolutely beautiful….I remember watching the original cover you did a couple years ago and recently wondering with all the new remastered versions you were doing if you could possibly one up the last masterpiece…and for me you truly did…the lyrics for dark bowser, fawful screaming, THE KEYCHANGE, everything was just amazingly made and executed…this truly was the grand finale
I'm still a big fan of MOTI's version of Grand Finale (mainly cause i memoried that one), but HOT DAMN that was awesome! That ending, the way Bowser taunts Dark Star as one final blow is perfect!
I love the addition of Dark Bowser's voice! Bowser also sounds so much more energetic. I love this cover so much, great job, Juno! Though you probably won't see this, still. Good work!
There's something so genius about using the in-game punch at 6:35 as a transitional frame to the art of Bowser holding Dark Bowser by his throat for the Big Finish.
The best part about this is that Mario sounds more like... you know, Mario. Although it occasionally leans on the Mickey voice one point, it's still a testament to how much you've improved! Great job juno!
Seeing Juno improve in song and art along with bringing ArcherOwl for more art just shows how much he's improved, well done both of you for this music piece.
Amazing remaster! Dark Bowser starting with an extra verse (and Bowser even stopping him from taking a second later), Mario's lines getting a big glow up, and a beautiful key changed bonus verse to finish it off. Now we need V6 of that mashup lmao. In the Remasted Ultimate Final Journey of The Grand Finale
6:21 I thought this was the end of the song and the rest was either sponsor or credits. Pleasantly surprised to see that Bowser's final KO punch got a verse.
I remember back in January 2020 when I saw The Grand Finale with Lyrics and introduced me to this amazing channel! The original was so good and this remaster is even better! Thanks for sharing your talent to us all Juno!!!
This, honestly hit different, having heard the original, you can imagine my reaction when my ears were blessed with this ABSOLUTE divine symphony You've outdone yourself Juno, truly.
I wasn’t able to see the live premiere of the full package, BUT GOOD LORD as soon as this song came up at the end I was bouncing and jamming in my seat the whole way through!! And my god- THAT KEY CHANGE ENDING???? It was just SPECTACULAR!! I had a whole sequence in my mind of the fight being on a massive stage, us viewers cheering Bowser on and helping with the positive energy- was just so much fun to watch and had me smiling the whole way through!!
3:15 I like to think that Bowser saying "All of your powers are mine" means he's going to take DB's power, but he's saying that everything DB does comes FROM Boswer, awesome.
i recall the comments on the original saying the thing they liked about moti's yours didn't have was the verse by the dark star itself, so it's really cool to see you add this. i still love all the versions, this is nintendos best track and you lyricists just bring it ot a new level. yoru bowser voice is one of my favorites,and this is a great start to the new year :)

"It's showtime" always give me chills
My favorite part of the song is when Bowser said "IT'S BOWSER TIME!" and then koopaed all over the place.
I like how this is legitimately what happens in the video
I love this comment
He even say ITS BOWSER TIME
@@JunoSongswell, he-
Actually, nevermind. Fair point.
Gotta say, love the added/changed lyrics in this DX edition! Bowser's exuding confidence, Dark Bowser establishing his world-conquering, and the Bros. working in tandem to crush a remnant of their past foe, it's just fantastic! Great job on this one Juno, definitely putting Bowser Time to good use!
I GOT A HUGE DOPAMENE RUSH WHEN I HEARD FAMILIAR LYRICS!!! Well played!!
You must be one of the audience members Bowser was talking about LOL
@@JunoSongsI too came for the original lyrics, the new ones were good too though
Correct @@JunoSongs
Somehow, every time you or MotI comes out with a new version of this song, I find a new favorite version. This would be a fun thing to go back and forth on like you did with megalovania, but I doubt that’d ever happen. Congrats on the anniversary man, I hope you stick around for a while.
If I lampooned The Grand Finale/In the Final I don't think people would like that lol
After the rager that was Bowser's Rage Stage, this was very much a welcome surprise, and an extreme source of hype! I mean, this song's got it all!
*New Lyrics!
*A new Bowser insult
*All the classic Bowser insults
*_*THE KEY CHANGE!_*
And the lead-up was beyond amazing! I mean, the part where the chat gave Bowser the Bowser power to take down his dark doppelganger felt like we were holding Miracle Lights at a Pretty Cure movie! Simply put, this is beyond "peak". This is *_GODLIKE!_*
When someone went "NEW INSULT UNLOCKED" in chat I laughed
Now the question is did bowser learn the insult at the same night school dedede went to?
@@clayka2317probably, thats also where he learned …. What was it he said in rage stage? Im too lazy to check
@@Bengt2509 "Baby, please! I'm begging on my *figurative* hands and knees!"
@@AnimeboyIanpoweryeah that one
The drawing at 6:40 goes so hard dude
I have been waiting literal years for a In The Finale DX, and I must say- you have yet to disappoint! Here's to another 5 amazing years! 💙
honestly, this is a great take on lyrics. bowser's throwing playground insults like a cartoon character, and he has zero fear of his dark copy. outright bullying him while mario and luigi are taking this seriously, but still with an air of comedy, fitting for the literal mario bros. dark bowser keeps trying to pull his dark god shtick, but just gets cut off completely so bowser can flex on him more. kickass!
Bowser cutting Dark Star off for his second verse is honestly the most in character bit of this entire video
The key change finale section also goes unbelievably hard
Dark Boswer: " Insolent Fool"
Bowser:" ZIP IT, IVE GOT A 2ND VERSE TO GET THROUGH"
Bowser is the star in the 1 man show
@@vibremaster239 its bowser’s world now, the rest of us are just living in it
Dawg, bowser said key change like it was a freakin’ special move.
Wow I really liked this remaster, adding Dark Bowser and re-working some of the odd lyrics. Well, since the brothers are wrapping up the last verse I guess I'll close off the video-
"KEY CHANGE!"
Yeah the final part made this just- perfect, thank you Juno.
I was here for the OG anniversary, and now im here again for 5 years!
Thanks for being so awesome Juno! Heres to another year of great music!
The finale of dark Bowser defeated 6:33
That line "The koopa king will never die, never die, NEVER DIE!" it's so true, no matter how many times he gets beaten by mario, he will always get up and try again, no matter how frustrating is, he never gives up, this is why bowser is one of the greatest villains ever.
6:54 Exactly. The Mario & Luigi Saga Will Never DIE!!!
Bowser has done the one thing King Dedede and Fecto Elfilis couldn’t: grab their opponent by the neck
To be fair, Kirby has no neck
@@lauziyi5728that is their exact point
Bowser doesn't need night school.
6:33 I love the new ending you added!
3:49 awesome as always Juno
I like to headcanon that _all_ three versions "happened" to Bowser (both Juno's and MOTI's covers), and the Spamton fight was in between, so Bowser's just got some serious pent-up rage after the Spamton fight, and seeing Fawful "back for round three" just made him _Ascend to the Done Tiers_ and be like "no, you're not happening a THIRD time, go away", and that's why he sounds so more energetic in this remastering. He's already been there done that and is pissed he has to "how many times do we have to teach you this lesson, old man" Dark Bowser's face in _again._
He swatted the spider a third time😂😂😂
Damn dark Bowser like a goddamn cockroach
I love the Key Change near to end with the Higher Pitch to sound more triumphant it is just *Chef's Kiss*
*KEY CHANGE!*
_Insert Genocide try hard mode undertale player playing_
No but literally that Goes very hard It has to be my favorite part of the video
6:36 The art shows OG Bowser having Dark Bowser by the throat, but the key change makes me imagine that Bowser is just slamming DB in Super Smash Brothers. DB is just a ragdoll as Bowser utilizes every single one of his attacks against the dark impostor.
*Edit: fixed typo*
Absolutely beautiful….I remember watching the original cover you did a couple years ago and recently wondering with all the new remastered versions you were doing if you could possibly one up the last masterpiece…and for me you truly did…the lyrics for dark bowser, fawful screaming, THE KEYCHANGE, everything was just amazingly made and executed…this truly was the grand finale
2:54 He has proven this in lore so many times
Yeah, he every time he is defeated sometime he falls into the lava and others times, something else happened to bowser and he comes back every time
5:39 Love this joke on how the Mario bros will unclog fawful like a drain, since they are plumbers
Hi
I'm still a big fan of MOTI's version of Grand Finale (mainly cause i memoried that one), but HOT DAMN that was awesome! That ending, the way Bowser taunts Dark Star as one final blow is perfect!
I love the new ending in this version. You really put that extra OOMPH into that final punch
the Smash Ultimate Final Stock KO sound really sells the impact of just about anything
Was not expecting a remastered of this masterpiece, this is so good, great job on it!
I love the addition of Dark Bowser's voice! Bowser also sounds so much more energetic. I love this cover so much, great job, Juno! Though you probably won't see this, still. Good work!
Still no fawful singing a verse 😔
The only recorded instance of Bowser actually _saving_ Peach!
There's something so genius about using the in-game punch at 6:35 as a transitional frame to the art of Bowser holding Dark Bowser by his throat for the Big Finish.
7:06 "You got trounced in rhyme! ITS BOWSER TIME"
If making legendary lyrics was a crime, juno would be already 20 feet under the ground, because this dude is A LIVING LEGEND !!!
DJ Hallyboo:
@@JunoSongs you criminal you mad so thing that's so good
Made
Something
7:22
*strangling noises*
GAME.
Bowser wins
The best part about this is that Mario sounds more like... you know, Mario. Although it occasionally leans on the Mickey voice one point, it's still a testament to how much you've improved! Great job juno!
Mario's just being a little fruity
Seeing Juno improve in song and art along with bringing ArcherOwl for more art just shows how much he's improved, well done both of you for this music piece.
2:06 bowser really used “alright my turn now, this is what the audience came for”
MOTI's songs voice Bowser like how he probably actually sounds based of his grunts ingame, Juno's songs voice Bowser how he SHOULD sound
7:01 JESUS CHRIST THAT BEAT DROP PLUS “KEY CHANGE!” WITH THAT ART IS FUCKING INSANE
Amazing remaster! Dark Bowser starting with an extra verse (and Bowser even stopping him from taking a second later), Mario's lines getting a big glow up, and a beautiful key changed bonus verse to finish it off.
Now we need V6 of that mashup lmao.
In the Remasted Ultimate Final Journey of The Grand Finale
Absolutely incredible remaster of an already amazing cover. Here's to another amazing year of music, Juno!
6:21
I thought this was the end of the song and the rest was either sponsor or credits. Pleasantly surprised to see that Bowser's final KO punch got a verse.
Key Change was INCREDIBLY Hype. Subscribing to this channel was one of the best decisions I've made, cheers to another year of Juno!
I remember back in January 2020 when I saw The Grand Finale with Lyrics and introduced me to this amazing channel! The original was so good and this remaster is even better! Thanks for sharing your talent to us all Juno!!!
6:34 I absolutely love that key change, if anything I wish to have the whole song be like that.
This, honestly hit different, having heard the original, you can imagine my reaction when my ears were blessed with this ABSOLUTE divine symphony
You've outdone yourself Juno, truly.
wow?! You can really tell how much fun was had when making that finial part of the song with the tempo change.
wanna hear a REAL fawful quote from this game?
“IT WAS I WHO ADDED THE NUTS TO THAT STATUE!”
Thanks to Fawful, we all have Chortles
I love this song the perfect finale! I still remember the other one you made a long time ago.This is epic!
I FREAKING LOVE THE NEW BITS! DARK BOWSER, THE FINAL PART, ITS AMAZING, THIS SONG IS AMAZING, JUNO IS AMAZING
THAT KEY-CHANGE HOLY SHIT!
As a HUGE enthusiast of this theme this was PURE SEROTONIN!
The Koopa King never fails to impress!
This hits harder than bowser's alphabetized list of alliterative insults being dropped onto Luigi & Red 'Stache from the 3rd story window
Love to see that this series is still treasured!
Another masterpiece Juno! You took one of your greatest and made it even more awesome!!
Oh, my, god. One of my favorite final boss themes from one of my favorite games! You really did a fantastic job with this! 🥰🥰
Now we need Juno lyrics of in the final: bowser version, it is just the part where Bowser sings since its so epic
I wasn’t able to see the live premiere of the full package, BUT GOOD LORD as soon as this song came up at the end I was bouncing and jamming in my seat the whole way through!!
And my god- THAT KEY CHANGE ENDING???? It was just SPECTACULAR!! I had a whole sequence in my mind of the fight being on a massive stage, us viewers cheering Bowser on and helping with the positive energy- was just so much fun to watch and had me smiling the whole way through!!
AlphaDream's legacy will never die
NEVER DIE
*NEVER DIE!!!*
0:25 is it just me or does Bowser sound a bit sarcastic with that line delivery?
No, not just you
That's by design
3:15 I like to think that Bowser saying "All of your powers are mine" means he's going to take DB's power, but he's saying that everything DB does comes FROM Boswer, awesome.
i recall the comments on the original saying the thing they liked about moti's yours didn't have was the verse by the dark star itself, so it's really cool to see you add this. i still love all the versions, this is nintendos best track and you lyricists just bring it ot a new level. yoru bowser voice is one of my favorites,and this is a great start to the new year :)
I remember this very well, I'm glad that this got remastered.
"Zip it I got a second verse" is so Bowser coded I love it hahaha
Very good remaster, Juno. I especially loved the final part :)
