"Gang-Plank Galleon"

"Gang-Plank Galleon" in Donkey Kong Country
Composed by:
David Wise
First appearance Donkey Kong Country (1994)
Latest appearance Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (2018)

"Gang-Plank Galleon"[1] is a recurring musical theme in the Donkey Kong franchise composed by David Wise. It is almost always associated with King K. Rool, as well as the eponymous Gangplank Galleon. The theme first appears in Donkey Kong Country, playing in the final level of the same name.

Composition[edit]

The introduction of the theme has a sea shanty feel, representing the pirate-esque appearance of the stage where the theme is originally heard, though it quickly segues into a more intense battle theme. The theme is loosely based on the NES port of the title theme from Sid Meier's Pirates!, another game developed by Rare.

You can do it, whelp
You can claw 'em, gnaw 'em, stone 'em, beat 'em
I'll do this with my mind, you just obey me!

You better start me, steam me, see me, scrub me, feed me my pie
You ready already, or wheezy oh? And bestial crushin', easy though
And totally the very top DNA, now!
You need a shanty, shanty, shanty: a song
You're an extremely scary regent that conquers us all, you go:
