- IT'S MAHVEL BABY!! Finally we know what the rest of the song is!
So excited to finally drop this video of "I Wanna Take You for a Ride" aka the character select screen from Marvel vs Capcom 2. This track is based on the original 8 second loop that plays from that game, but expanded with additional music and lyrics as if it were a FULL SONG. I loved listening to the original loop so much that I couldn't help but imagine what it would be like if the iconic vocal loop would be if it were the chorus of a full length song, so I asked my dear friends from the band Lawrence to come in an help me co-compose the rest of the imaginary tune, and this is the incredible result!
Clyde Lawrence, who wrote the lyrics, did an amazing job incorporating some great references to the MvC2 game and community itself!!
I also couldn't help myself as an arranger but draw countless funky easter eggs from one of the greatest horn bands of all time "Tower of Power" see how many you can catch!!

ITS MAHVEL BABY!
EVERYBODY DIRECT YOUR PRAISE TO PASQUALE HERE WHO ABSOLUTELY CRUSHED THESE ANIMATIONS!
HELL YEAH THAT'S MY SON
Well done bro, I was about to praise the production value, your animations were amazing.
@@The8BitBigBand FUCK THE KNICKS
Back when it was still good.
And it still can be again.
Oh my god that "put on my sunday best and call me war machine" line was FIRE. If you don't know, when war machine does his proton cannon, during startup he goes "here's my Sunday's best! Proton cannon!!"
This and the increasing number of Servbots gag was so good.
Here's my tomato
Iron Man says it in mvc3 as well
Maximilian Dood brought me here!
Attention to detail 🤌🏼🫶💪
Not the daigo parry 1:27 💀
Let’s go Justin!!
it's evo moment number 37
You can't even diego parry in mvc2
Evo 2004 It's Madness!
Justin Wong will never stop taking strays, lmao
This feels like a "end credits" for the Vs series and a celebration of not only Marvel 2, but also this whole franchise and it's impact on so many people, including myself.
Congratulations, you guys almost made a grown man cry
Grown man that has typed up a few comments while sobbing here - it's a love letter to the FGC wrapped up in one of the og games (...a gem of a box to use...)
I just wore my now defunct srk shirt for an mvc2 tourney just over a week ago
"It's still real to me, god damnit!" 🤣🤣
(I'm honestly still shocked this was just made. I really thought it was an old vid that the algo finally tossed at me. Midway through I checked and my jaw dropped.... And the tears started)
Maximilian Dood brought me here!
I could just see the credits scrolling right now.
Except Infinite.... We don't talk about Infinite....
@@fernandonava6693 facts
They took an 8 SECOND LOOP and made it *BANG HARDER* than it somehow already did.
I am begging you to do "This is True Love We're Making" from Capcom vs. SNK 2.
Oh my god YES
Needs more upvotes!
!!!Yes!!!
I'll get you there ♥
YESSSS!
I was not expecting the male vocalist looking like this I gotta be honest 😂
I literally thought it was Charlie and was like dude there is no shot
@@zachvii6476 Hm, not what I was thinking. I just thought the vocalist was black
@@OpticSkies LITERALLY
Clyde Lawrence is an awesome singer check him out
I love that I legitimately thought these were the actual official lyrics to an unknown extended version of the song until the MAHVEL BAYBEE references in the second verse lmao
GIVE THEM ANOTHER GRAMMY RIGHT NOW DAMNIT
Wait, they actually have a Grammy?
Yeah, for their cover of Meta Knight’s Revenge iirc
@@-AirKat-Well, let's give them a 2nd one!!!
The male singer not being black is the biggest shock of this video. That man has SOUL.
Genuinely shocked
His voice reminds me of Huey Lewis
Check out their music. Lawrence is the band name.
Fr lol. He tricked us like Bobby Caldwell😂
@@deshaunfortune912underated comment 😂
Lawrence and 8-Bit Big Band is literally my dream collab!!! This is a wish come true!!!
Literally just about to write this!!
beautiful
Wazzler sighting
I imagine the grin you must have had on your face with the evo moment, Justin. Love ya' ❤
1:30 LET'S GO JUSTIN!!!
What is Hip at 2:11 is genius
And did I hear a little Squib Cakes quote/reference at 3:23? Incredible arrangement!
@@razzlejazzled oh my!! You’re totally right!!
Fancy running into you on the Internet randomly, cousin! ;) Impeccable taste in music, whether in jazz, funk, video-game, etc.!
This whole arrangement has call outs to "what is hip?" The intro 00:18 too
I couldnt put my finger on it thank you for pointing it out lol!
1:30 Who ever did the editing here deserves a special shout out for this call back. Best moment in fighting game history
Thank you lol
@@pasqualedorsiartbrill total brill. The servbots are also right on!! My little kid was in awe staring!!
Ain't even in the right game and we STILL won't let Justin forget.
RIP to him but it was an awesome reference to see!
@@pasqualedorsiartdoes Alpha share sprites with MvC2 or did you have to reanimate the MvC2 sprites to mimic The Parry?
(It's a fucking beautiful edition. I said in another comment, this feels like a hearfelt tribute to the fgc wrapped in the goat of og titles.
Maaaaad love and appreciation for all the work.)
Justin ain't even safe in a jazz song
How do take a simple lick, expand it into a full funk extravaganza by way of ToP? Ask Charlie.
This is an absolute banger an what a challenge it must have been to pull this passage into a full piece without ending up like taffy. Big, funky, masterclass.
Too true; they took an extremely catchy 5-second loop and turned it into an absolute masterpiece. It's honestly one of the most impressive things I've heard in a while.
Definitely feelin Soul with a capital “S” ToP
gracie singing "ITS MAHVEL BABY" might be the best thing ever in life
LEGENDS for adding the whole Daigo parry @ 1:30!!! the whole production is so good, and got the perfect vocalists for the tune!
One of my favs from the new album! Lawrence killed it!!!
That white boy got some soul to him goddamn
I woke up and decided to play a few rounds of MvC2 on the machine in my bedroom. I log on to my computer to get ready for work, and what do I see?
Absolute fate - this goes hard. Bless you, 8-Bit Big Band.
Nice throwback of course. Your situation was the same as mine. The algorithm powers that be uploaded right as I was leaving for work
machine in my bedroom? You have it on cabinet? If so, how'd you get it?
@@TheSpellcaztr Arcade1Up has produced an MvC2 cabinet that contains it with other VS and Marvel titles.
Woah, it's $599+ for it! Thanx for the info anyway, but I'll just try to download it@@Shadownade
Fav track by far, what a dream collab! Shoutout to Joe Dart-esque bass playing by Adam Neely and the killer bari sax hits
LMAO HOLLYWOOD SWINGING AT 3:48 LET’S GOOOO
All the classic funk licks are taking me to a good place 🙏
1:48 "Now I've GYAT to try" 🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥
lmaoo I was gonna say that
The Daigo parry and the serbots vibing to the funk are awesome
Absolutely love the tower of power inspiration for the Bari part 🔥🔥🔥
What is hip? Lol
came here looking for this comment lol
If someone can hear us, please, I WANT THIS SONG ON THE NEXT MvC!!!!
This song really gave me a KO on how perfect it was.
😂😂😂😂🤣🤣😭
Factsssssa
Them ToP quotes and the "Let Me Clear My Throat" fed my soul.😩🙌🏾 I'mma make sure the whole band gets at least one plate from the family cookout!🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
24 years later, finally a full fledge version of the iconic character select screen theme. So much nostalgia! ❤
Love the animation of chun li and Ken for the Evo 37 line 1:28
Seriously this slaps so hard ❤
Honestly? Yeah, I might not be a big MARVEL VS Capcom fan, but even I know how iconic the original track, and getting to hear a full version of it was something that felt like a long time coming. Outstanding work to all involved here!
Thankfully the algorithm recommended this video to me. The amount of effort in not only the music production, but even the editing of song the the game graphics and special effects have me blown away! Its a crime that you don't already have well over a million subs! These videos look like they were very expensive to make and you guys deserve millions of views per video!
this is one of the best songs i've heard from you guys!
THE ANIMATIONS ABSOLUTELY SLAPPED THIS TIME AROUND
You guys slammed this thing! Very faithful to Tetsuya Shibata's sound for this game (and Auto Modellista!) and the Tower of Power nods were just as inspired.
I’m in tears. Literal tears. Getting to witness a fully orchestrated rendition of a small loop that’s been a MAJOR part of my life for just shy of 25 years
(Couple year hiatus, but just recently got floored in my first ever MvC2 tourney via Xbox live. It was magically nostalgic, and both kids were raised to the music of this game)
Just the right amount of cheese in there that matches the cheese factor of a hardcore fighter energized by neo funk
From the bottom of my heart and tears welling up as I type this
Sincerely…
THANK YOU FOR PLAYING MARVEL VS CAPCOM 2, NEW AGE OF HEROES
Always felt like this song could be a full piece. Thank y'all for knocking it outta the park!
I played a lot of Marvel VS Capcom on PS1 and listening to Lawrence in this project was one of the best songs I've ever heard, they are always involved with extremely good quality
That's one hell of an arrangement
God what an arrangement. Got my permanent stank face on the whole time. Love a little tastefully understated Adam Neely laying that bass line down too
I was blown away when I heard this song on the album - never would have expected a lawrence collab but they are such a great fit and brought their all to this track!
1:22 - more trivia - these lines are from Yipes, one of the all time great mvc2 players. Hes mt rushmore legendary not only for his play, but his 🐐ed commentary. One of the phrases he made up was "where's your curly stache at??" - in marvel if you get "opened up" that means you've had your defenses broken, basically tricked into blocking the wrong way, or opened up like a can of pringles. So the curly stache is referring to the pringles can guy. Means you've been opened up 🥸
This is perfect for me, fitting in the Venn diagram of MvC2 and Tower of Power enjoyers
those Lawrence kids go crazy fr
I've been waiting for the studio performance of this since the album dropped, easily my favorite track.
I was beginning to wonder if a video was going to be made for this cover due to it having Marvel characters in it and how Disney is really touchy about, well, everything, so I was pleasantly surprised to see this in my notifications. I’m impressed that y’all went out and turned a 15 second loop into a full, near 5 minute long song that isn’t repetitive or anything. Props to Charlie for listening to the loop for 35 mins straight. Great cover and animation.
Also: Went to y’all’s concert in Newport, VA with my family, y’all rocked house. 10/10 performance. Even bought a couple of shirts (which I’m wearing as of writing this message) for me and my sister (who’s also a big fan of y’all’s work) cause A the album 3 shirts look dope and B because y’all deserve the extra support for being such a great band. Thanks for making awesome Jazz covers and performing here in Virginia. Keep up the good work.
*End of very long message*
it's 1am and i'm tearing up at a video game song cover
yoo yall killed it sooo fire thank you for putting this together for all us MvC2 fans!!! Love It! I couldn't hit like and subscribe fast enough!
Same I was looking for the original theme this fire And now😁 Iwant to see all their work.
Can't wait for UMVC3 Community Edition to put this on their character select screen. God I hope so.
Super stoked that this exists because I've always wondered what the song would sound like if it wasn't a 10 second loop. MVC2 kicks so much and so does this cover. Awesome job y'all :)
It's marvel baby! 🔥 This cover has SOUL ❤️
1:24 oh you so pringles!!
Take it to the bridge!
This album is on a whole other level. I can't stop listening to it. You guys are amazing.
The "TAKE IT TO THE BRIDGE".. Chef's kiss!
We all have the ability to start a crowdfunding campaign…
Fly in Freedom, PLEASE.
Absolutely love this, but I will say, maybe there should be a flash warning for 2:16 (I’m photosensitive and it was a less than ideal experience 😅). Again though, this is super impressive in all ways creative.
sorry about that
@@pasqualedorsiart All good! You did a great job and I can’t blame you for not thinking about it :)
I was honestly surprised they had the gall to put something like that in a video in 2024
I'm in love. Give every single person in this video their flowers including the person recording and the engineer mixing
The fact that the period of my life when I was invested in Marvel Vs Capcom overlapped with the period of my life when I was listening to Tower of Power every single day makes this arrangement feel laser focused at me.
YOOOO You got Lawrence on this, this is so dope!
This is all about the bass instruments! Bari sax and guitar dominate!
the collab I never knew how much I wanted. I will watch Clyde and Gracie Lawrence in anything but this was an unexpected and very welcome surprise.
THIS IS SO WELL DONE! This is an absolute vibe. The references, the sprites, the everything. This will go down in history of one of my favorite videos of all time.
shout out to the people who do the animated sprites
The absolute best piece of the album! I fucking love this one!
Emocionante de verdade. Thanks for this masterpiece.
Traga isso para seu canal, mais pessoas precisam saber dessa obra.
*Ohhh man right in the nostalgia, im totally in, thank you guys!*
Oh, that bass...
They always say “WHEN’S MAHVEL?!”, but they never say “How’s Mahvel?”
THIS IS AMAZING!! I had always wished that character select music had more to it. You all have completed the song! Beautiful! Bravo!! Thank you
Absolutely MARVELLOUS!!!
Loved that Hammond Organ solo!
Oooh they finally released the video! Been waiting for this one
This was absolutely amazing. The arrangement, the vocals, the lyrics and all the references, the sprite work. Damn. ❤
Didn’t see this coming whatsoever good gosh holy wow
Lol, this songs just gaining traction
I've been taked for a ride!
Easily the BEST selection song in gaming history
You all and Lawrence is a match made in heaven and you all went hard! I'm giving extra props to the editor/animator for this one because they hit it out of the park creating engaging fights to go along with the song!
ADAM NEELY
I have been a fan of MvC2 for over 20 years. I have the game on dreamcast and I bought the arcade1up version for $700 last year. I had to pause this video at 1:02 because I kinda started crying a lil bit because this is really fun and cool. Once the chorus came on, I actually said out lout, "what the f..." because it really goes well. Plus the overall lyrics..Capcom has some properties that they add lyrics and music to and they are timeless- like the Street Fighter 3 Menu and Character select theme. I think this is up there with them. The video editing is incredible. Thanks for this. I am now subbed and I follow on insta. Keep rocking!
Y’all did it. I’m in tears. Thank you! ❤
what a fun song! great work
I played the crap out of this on Dreamcast. Such a niche track. ❤
This arrangement and collab was made specifically for my tastes and I’m here for it
Absolutely amazing song! The woodwind vs brass lines trading off and on top of each other is killer! Love the Tower of Power quotes too. Awesome performance, Gracie and Clyde killed it!
Oh my god this is amazing, I am wiping tears from my eyes tysm for this Mahvel means so much to so many people, myself included and seeing passion like this still being put into the series is so heartwarming. So glad I found this channel, y'all rule!
IT'S MAHVEL BAYBEE
Nice, thank you! from original composer Tetsuya Shibata.
Thank YOU!! I'm so glad you like it!! Thank you for composing an incredible sound track!!
OUTSTANDING. if this game ever gets remastered, pay this band and put them on the bloody soundtrack
Fantastic arrangement, great players, and such powerful vocals. Love this!
Aaaaaaaa, this was wonderful! :D Awesome to hear I Wanna Take You For A Ride fleshed out into a full and jazzy song, the fighting game references were fun, and the editing/animations made things even more lively!
This one really stood out of the bunch
1:09 you're (im sorry)
Damn you beat me to it
@@ayylmao9054 yeahhhhh someone had to say it 😂, like the koji kondo incident a while back
Oh my god the ending is GENIUS! what the shit!
thank you
Absolutely phenomenal as always folks!!! I’m so happy each and every one of you exist and come together to make magic happen. Thank you so much for all the amazing music over the years! ❤🙌🍻🤙
Yeah, I am hyped about every new song that you publish. Thank you very much! 😊
3-0 perfect victory
I normally hate when lyrics get added to songs that didn't have them originally, but this was awesome!
(Except that's not how you pronounce hadouken...)
Also EM37 had no business being mentioned there.
I randomly felt like listening to the MvC2 soundtrack all this week, then I open up UA-cam today and see this *incredible* performance! Great work, everyone!
This is the best video that I’ve seen in a will, I could help to smile every second the first time I saw this video, so many references so many memories and so much talent.
Great video editing, great song, and great band! ❤❤❤
In 2000, Capcom released this; MARVEL VS CAPCOM 2!, their most accomplished fighting game. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "I Wanna Take you for a Ride". A song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should...
Is this a copypasta?
