So this is “Ain’t that a kick in the head,” still alive is “world on a string,” but what is want you gone. Closest I can think of is “I’ve got you under my skin”
man lego dimensions will always be the weirdest things to come out of the toys to life genre. lego always made sense to go into toys to life genre but the way they did it was truly something different and having a credits sequence that's straight out of the portal games really drives that home
The devs at Traveler’s Tales were probably talking about their new short-term partners at Valve like “Yeeeaaah their ass is never making a third game, might as well get the most out of this opportunity”
I just noticed you got a Kat pfp. I love Gravity Rush and I really want these guys to make a rendition of at least one of the songs and main themes of the series.
@@georgebernard5783 not only games, but movies too! i love back to the future, and its not as classic as i thought it was. The game made it more well known! (if only a little)
@@kaitlyn__L eh I wouldn't really call it a tie-in. Moreso fan-service. It was written by the same songwriter as Still Alive and Want You Gone; sung by Ellen McClain, and played over the end credits of the game as a surprise for fans. Lego Dimensions was incredibly faithful to all of the franchises they included, but I think the devs had a particularly special place in their hearts for portal. Playing through the two portal levels in that game honestly feels like you're playing a Portal Game (albeit made of Lego, and Batman and Gandalf are there for one of them).
THAT AINT THAT A KICK IN THE HEAD RIFF AT THE BEGINNING I KNEW IT RIGHT AWAY. I’m a massive fan of Dean Martin and Nelson Riddle and I HAVE LOVED everything you put out. Mr. Rosen and everyone else, Bravo… You’ve done it again. Video Games and Big Band are a perfect mix.
Your covers of Still Alive and Want You Gone legitimately helped me get through rough times in my life, I'm so happy that this is out right now!! Thank you!!
I love this channel because it combines my love of big brass and strings bands with videogames. So good, I hope one day they cover Baka Mitai, not for the memes but cause I genuinely love that song
The *SECOND* this started I was like.... 🎵How lucky can one guy be? I kissed her and she kissed me. Like the fella once said, "Ain't that a kick in the head?"🎵 I LOVE how this sounds. I don't know the original, but I love Benny's voice from the other Portal songs anyway, and just the general feel of the whole song. It's already on repeat! I'm just waiting for you to come to the UK... 😭😭😭
I honestly truly appreciate someone actually tackling this song!! Lego Dimensions is such an underrated game and I appreciate it getting some attention!!
NO WAY THEY ACTUALLY DID IT! THEY SAID THEY WERE GONNA DO IT AND THEY DID IT! I'd say play LEGO Dimensions, but getting your hands on that game is becoming a bigger and bigger challenge. The Portal sections are a higjlight!
The portal songs bring me so much joy, I listen to them non stop and every time it just makes me smile! I can’t thank you enough for making this types of songs, they bring me so much light in a place of darkness. From the bottom of my heart, thank you to everyone that took part of these wonderful masterpieces!!
I think they don't publish their sheet music due to fear of copyright infringement. Copyright law is weird, and since by covering VGM they're already operating in a grey area, they don't want to push it :/
Lego Dimensions was a lot of fun, how crazy the crossover plots were but they all worked so well, and of course, gave us the closest thing we ever got to a Portal 3, complete with GlaDOS song at the end
Agreed. Multiversus is fun, but between it and LEGO Dimensions of which is the better “WB throws every franchise they have the rights to in a blender” game, I’d pick Dimensions- even if just for the GLaDOS inclusion. Also, no one’s going to make a joke about a guy named Benny singing a LEGO song? SPACESHIP!
Gotta love it. The whole band sounds amazing, and Benny's voice is simply amazing. The whole band is criminally underrated. Keep up the good work! P.S. Do you think we could get more vocals from Benny in the future? I just can't get enough of his voice. Simply amazing.
I have been through their whole catalogue since I found them and I can safely say that no, they have never missed. Only been great and amazing. Some examples are stand out, like the Portal covers and Snake Eater, but EVERYTHING they do is gold.
It's here. The video I have been waiting for over two years, since I got into the portal series in the first place is finally here. The trilogy is complete and I couldn't be happier. Thank you the 8bitbigband. Thank you.
i was worried that y'all would have skipped this one as it isn't as popular as the other two glados songs but man am i over the moon to be proven wrong
I had no idea there was another GLADOS song since it wasn't in a Portal game. Thanks so much for bringing this to my attention, sharing it with us all, and performing this great arrangement!
Your covers of Jonathan Coulton's music are phenomenal. Jonathan Coulton has to be one of if not my most favorite artists of all time, and your covers of his songs for Portal made me feel like a child in awe when I discovered his music through some really old World of Warcraft machinimas. Thank you so much for not just this cover but all of your amazing covers!
I love this channel because it combines my love of big brass and strings bands with videogames. So good, I hope one day they cover Baka Mitai, not for the memes but cause I genuinely love that song
Having this mixed with Ain't that a kick in the head is so fun to me! I listened to that song way too much (Thanks, Fallout New Vegas) and I love the homage to it here
this channel is still producing incredible quality song after song, it’s so much fun!! I hope I never stop seeing these on my subscription feed. As a portal fan it’s insanely satisfying to see the trilogy of GLaDOS songs played so beautifully! It’d be a dream come true if you could cover a LittleBigPlanet song! That series was my childhood. I have 3 options I’d absolutely LOVE to hear, 1) Orb of Dreamers - Daniel Pemberton TV Orchastra 2) The Gardens - Mat Clark & Kenneth Young (that flute part would be SO impressive) 3) Get It Together - The Go Team (It’d take some creativity to make it into a big band cover but it’s such a good song and super iconic)
Been waiting for this for quite literally years at this point and it did not disappoint! Thank you 8-Bit Big Band for all the incredible arrangements you've graced us with!
I’ve been waiting for these guys to drop the last portal song for a while now, and they did not disappoint. They sound great as always! All three of the portal songs are my favorite songs 8 bit band has released. Great work guys!
Time to move on to final fantasy songs now that we're all out of portal. Eyes on me... melodies of life.... otherworld... Would be most interesting to hear your jazz renditions of these!
Wow, I must say, you guys have really outdone yourselves with this one! I can almost confidently declare that this rendition is even better than the original. Congratulations!
They gotta make another portal now that we’re out of songs!
There is the cave Johnson head opera
Modern problems require modern solutions
Riigghhtt
There's don't say goodbye. Not in the games, but still.
Yes. :,)
It's remarkable how much the songwriter was able to keep Glados in character despite Lego being more child friendly.
Jonathan Coulton, he's the guy who wrote all the portal songs, which makes it even better they got him back for the Lego one
Plus adding in the casual "I was saying this to Batman" as if it were totally normal for GladOS to be chatting with a superhero
@@SingingSpockhey, at least with Batman, there’s at least a *hope* he won’t go and kill you :P
@@MrSkerpentineBatman never kills... but the hospital bills do.
@@makimaki500Another example of gazillionaires punching down on the common man SMH myhead
So this is “Ain’t that a kick in the head,” still alive is “world on a string,” but what is want you gone. Closest I can think of is “I’ve got you under my skin”
Yep that's correct haha. Definitely under my skin inspired!
Love the "aint it a kick in the head" references
I was wondering if anyone else noticed those quotes lol
And "The Way You Look Tonight"
@@hansolofsson6234 yeah I got that too! I thought I'd hear more of it
And don’t forget the two line reference to “Witchcraft” around 1:45 onwards

Really let it sink it in that characters that are canonically in a child’s imagination (The Lego Movie) met glados and a god basically
Oh man I’m so glad you did this one, so many people have no idea this song exists
Guilty as charged
I just noticed you got a Kat pfp. I love Gravity Rush and I really want these guys to make a rendition of at least one of the songs and main themes of the series.
funnily enough i played this way before fully doing both portals, all the songs are nice
“GLaD” *cough* *cough*
What a sweet finale to this incredible trilogy. Benny really kills with the delivery. Love you guys.
I’m glad that this game is remembered, even if just for this amazing song and the fact that Portal is in it 💙🧡🎂
Me too! I was ecstatic when I found out Portal would be in Lego Dimensions not to mention all of the other great franchises. It was a fantastic game
@@georgebernard5783 not only games, but movies too! i love back to the future, and its not as classic as i thought it was. The game made it more well known! (if only a little)

YES I thought the exact same and commented the same too!! Unmistakably Dean Martin! 😍😍
I legit started singing along to it before the change to "You Wouldn't Know." 😛
Wait, the song from fallout new Vegas is real?! /j
BASED MUSIC TASTE
Your covers of Still Alive and Want You Gone legitimately helped me get through rough times in my life, I'm so happy that this is out right now!! Thank you!!

@@simpleguy86 Based sentiments, I feel the same way towards the band and that song :)
Loved how the Lego Game ended in Portal style, and now you have finally completed the closest thing to a Portal Trilogy lol. Fantastic job~
The *SECOND* this started I was like.... 🎵How lucky can one guy be? I kissed her and she kissed me. Like the fella once said, "Ain't that a kick in the head?"🎵

The original is from the Lego Dimensions End Credits.
@@octanproductions6492 thank you!!
@@AyeshaShaSha You're welcome!
Ring a ding baby... Benny's singing truly is the tops
@@bconroy328 I know right! Smmoooooth!
I honestly truly appreciate someone actually tackling this song!! Lego Dimensions is such an underrated game and I appreciate it getting some attention!!
It came around the tail end of the "Buy our game and our toys" era, when parents were thoroughly done with the concept.
Finally, after all of these years, the trilogy of songs is complete. Until the next surprising cameo, Portal.
NO WAY THEY ACTUALLY DID IT! THEY SAID THEY WERE GONNA DO IT AND THEY DID IT!
I'd say play LEGO Dimensions, but getting your hands on that game is becoming a bigger and bigger challenge. The Portal sections are a higjlight!

God I hope all their arrangements will be available for purchase some time, I'd love to play and sing them with my band
They could make so much money from this

Love the ain't that a kick in the head référence at 0:58
Well, here we are again

YES!
Lego Dimensions was such an important game to me growing up and hearing this makes me so happy
Yet another banger 8BBB!
This trilogy single handedly maintains my faith in humanity.
how lucky can 1 guy be? a new 8bit big band epic song!
Gotta love it. The whole band sounds amazing, and Benny's voice is simply amazing. The whole band is criminally underrated. Keep up the good work!
P.S. Do you think we could get more vocals from Benny in the future? I just can't get enough of his voice. Simply amazing.
"Aint that a kick in the head!"
Couldnt not hear that with the intro. Nice homage!
Also excellent cover of this song as always :)
BENNY IS BACK!
After all these years, we finally got them all
Hahahaha thats right
Subtle gravity falls reference?
@@Happy_Koopa_boi you know it
I’ve been obsessed with anything Benny Benack III lately, so this is exactly what I love to see right now
Do y’all ever miss? Like ever? Like every song you guys have made are amazing beyond compare. Like all of them. Every single one.
I have been through their whole catalogue since I found them and I can safely say that no, they have never missed. Only been great and amazing. Some examples are stand out, like the Portal covers and Snake Eater, but EVERYTHING they do is gold.

2:50 and onwards is pure bliss every time.
i was worried that y'all would have skipped this one as it isn't as popular as the other two glados songs but man am i over the moon to be proven wrong
no way you guys actually did it and YOU GUYS GOT BENNY TO COME BACK FOR IT?
I had no idea there was another GLADOS song since it wasn't in a Portal game. Thanks so much for bringing this to my attention, sharing it with us all, and performing this great arrangement!
Portal and some bonus New Vegas. Now that's the kind of heady gaming brew you just don't get enough of.
AAAAAAHHHHH THE TRILOGY IS COMPLETE
Smoother than butter. Pixel Sinatra would be proud.
Smooth Jazz while puzzle solving? Ain’t that a kick in the head
Your covers of Jonathan Coulton's music are phenomenal.

I wish I could like this twice. Once for the skills and once for the zelda shirt
I remember my excitement when this game’s trailer dropped back in 2014. Now I get to be excited for it again!
this sure is a kick in the head
I HAVE BEEN PATIENTLY WAITING FOR THIS SINCE YOU GUYS FIRST MENTIONED THIS IN YOUR SONY HALL LIVESTREAM THIS IS THE MOST SATISFYING FEELING ON EARTH
i was listening to the covers of the first 2 and suddenly i see that this released, finally
Benny killed it, as per usual!
I love this channel because it combines my love of big brass and strings bands with videogames. So good, I hope one day they cover Baka Mitai, not for the memes but cause I genuinely love that song
It's definitely on the list!
"How lucky can one guy Be!!". . .Oops wrong song 😅 0:03 form (Ain't That A Kick In The Head)
Having this mixed with Ain't that a kick in the head is so fun to me! I listened to that song way too much (Thanks, Fallout New Vegas) and I love the homage to it here
I’m dying for this on streaming services 😩
Lego dimensions was the shit for the little time it existed
great cover! I wish more songs featured Benny
I thought this day would never come! The portal trilogy is now complete, and it sounds amazing!
OME?!
@@bellboy7809 BELL!
@@omeister8221 *insert predator handshake gif*
this channel is still producing incredible quality song after song, it’s so much fun!! I hope I never stop seeing these on my subscription feed. As a portal fan it’s insanely satisfying to see the trilogy of GLaDOS songs played so beautifully!
It’d be a dream come true if you could cover a LittleBigPlanet song! That series was my childhood. I have 3 options I’d absolutely LOVE to hear,
1) Orb of Dreamers - Daniel Pemberton TV Orchastra
2) The Gardens - Mat Clark & Kenneth Young (that flute part would be SO impressive)
3) Get It Together - The Go Team (It’d take some creativity to make it into a big band cover but it’s such a good song and super iconic)
awesome - Benny slayed. great one!
this band and singer is so good i wish they would do more songs
The guy with the Royal family emblem on his shirt is based. I love Zelda
They now have to do don’t say goodbye
I did not even notice this song came out 3 months ago. It's so good! 😭
HOW DID I NOT SEE THIS EARLIER?! Thanks so much for finishing the trilogy! It was a fantastic journey.
Been waiting for this for quite literally years at this point and it did not disappoint! Thank you 8-Bit Big Band for all the incredible arrangements you've graced us with!
One year and 94 days since that instagram post. I'd say it was worth the wait
The lick at 1:54 !!
Whoever was put in charge of the Lego Dimentions end credits must have been a big Portal fan.
8bitbig band never misses - amazing work!
Is it just me or does this guy get better and better
Yep, this is officially the best mix you guys have done on a big band sound. Nice work! Brass is just as punchy as it should be!
I've been waiting 2 years for this
never played portal, but i absolutely love all covers of portals songs you guys have done
God you guys are so good. Benny kills it with the style!
Finally, the trifecta is complete.
I’ve been waiting for these guys to drop the last portal song for a while now, and they did not disappoint. They sound great as always! All three of the portal songs are my favorite songs 8 bit band has released. Great work guys!
Criminally underrated (as I'm sure everyone here thinks). Incredible arrangement as always.
I've been waiting so long for my favorite cover artist to do a cover of this song! Thank you!
They finally made it! They really did it! Now Valve HAS to make another game! We’re out of songs!
THEY'VE RETURNED
Time to move on to final fantasy songs now that we're all out of portal. Eyes on me... melodies of life.... otherworld... Would be most interesting to hear your jazz renditions of these!
Now we just need Don't Say Goodbye
My biggest flex. is that Benny follows me on TikTok
Goddamn they did it again. I was so pissed I missed the concert and Miami please come to back to FL!
You guys are awesome. There, it says so on the report. We weren't even testing for that.
Always glad to see you back. And once again we're thinking with portals
Wow, that was a kick in the head!
it got hints of "kick in the head"
You crazy, beautiful, WONDERFUL so-and-so! You did it! You finally gone and did it!
YES! Have been hyped about this since it got referenced in that livestream! Frick yeah!
How the fuck haven't I been recommended this for 4 months, when I listen to your Portal songs weekly??
This is the first time I thought about Lego Dimensions in a while. Fun game. I liked it. And great song. This cover did it justice
Just wonderful
this is perfect
Batman
These portal songs are always bangers
Wow, I must say, you guys have really outdone yourselves with this one! I can almost confidently declare that this rendition is even better than the original. Congratulations!
Oh, awesome! I was recently thinking about how unappreciated this song is. Sounds great!
So glad ya'll finally covered this one!!
THEY DID THE THING
I actually just got back into LEGO Dimensions, which I feel oddly nostalgic for, so this is absolutely amazing timing to me
YESSSS
we may never (ever, ever, ever, ever) get a portal 3, but MAN this is great!!!
I've been DREAMING that you would do this one. Never thought it'd happen, I'm so happy rn!
Man this is such a vibe.
OH YEAH! I've been waiting patiently for this and Bam! Thank ya!
