The instrumental truly deserves more compliments, this is insane. It sounds amazing.

[Hybrid]

Man, if they ever make a sequel to “Treasure Planet”; they need to get all these guys to do the soundtrack.

[dechskaison]

I appreciate the consistency of the Best Band in the Universe throughout all these different animators.

So much fun.

[MediocreHexPeddler]

I love the juxtaposition of a hyper-advanced robotic/cybernetic organism with multiple free-floating arms that also has a smoothbore cannon for an arm with a fuse that pops out of the side.

[LaRanaMordaz]

I can't get over how much I've enjoyed this album about space pirates and defeating the sun (to be fair the sun deserves it)

All of the songs are stellar and stupid catchy

[mystuhree]

I love this strange connecting lore throughout these songs. (Small details like the drummer having 2 sets of arms and the bassist singing along make it even better!)

[justinfabela]

this being the first song in the album was 100% the right call.
after my brother and i listened to it we paused it and just looked at each other like, "this is going to be the greatest thing ive heard in a while."

[blt]

omg yes i love these animated vids for your songs. This song is so damn good, even though i thought it was just kind of alright at first. But after listening to your album constantly because it's just that good this song has grown to be a tied favourite along with every other song in this album, they're all just that amazing in my opinion. I can't wait for more of these

[sigmundroamer]

I love just how upbeat the drummer is. Like, yeah, they're a four armed, fire breathing, cyber alien dragon thing. But hear me out, them enjoying them self on the drums at 1:12 was actually adorable.

[DeusExProcella]

yes, I need every single song from Starship Velociraptor animated. This song was such an INCREDIBLE opening to the album. That riff just immediately blasts you in the face with how amazing it's about to be.

[kristian]

Still in contention for best song of the album. So glad for you Jon and for we who get to enjoy this amazing music that you took the plunge and made this album!

[IsThatDrak]

loving this new pirate metal thing you got going on here! so good to hear originals!

[Tengan]

When I heard this song for the first time, I didn't call it pirate metal, I called it happy metal, simply cuz it makes me happy listening to it, it's got this feeling of overwhelming joy, the kind you feel when you win at a hard game or when you fall in love. Great job Jonathan, keep it up! (PS. Can we get a cover of "Confrontation" from Jekyll & Hyde the musical? Think your voice and vocal ability fits the role perfectly!)

Lyrics {please help me.}

Call across the sky
All of my crew and I
Wanted for
The highest form
Of treason
For questioning authority
Demanding we sweat and bleed
Trade our lives away
Then call it freedom
(Freedom)

So hoist up the Jolly Roger
We'll take it tonight
Take back the life we've been denied

[Chorus]
For glory
Or gold we sail
Across the galaxy
Our sovereign star ship flying free
Forever
Our treasure taken from plutocracy
We've drunk our last
We've mouths to f***ing feed
So it's a pirate's life for me
Ooooh

So you've got to make a choice
If you would raise your voice
For all of those
Who suffer now
In silence
'Cause the crown would never hesitate
To laugh while we suffocate
And that's just why
We must reply
With violence
(Violence)

So hoist up the Jolly Roger
And take down the lie
We'll take back the life they've been denied

[Chorus]

it's a pirate's life for me
Ooooh

[kevinshepardson]

Jonathan Young: Come for the awesome covers, stay for the spectacular original work!

[nereol]

Okay, I'm listening to this song for months (and I love it), so I'm not as hyped about the song as I am about the fact that Pie made the whole video! I love it - well done Pie! 💙

[the.fairyonearth]

I absolutely LOVE this song, I'm so excited that it finally has an animation to go with it!!

[drak-fuqm]

i believe the working class lives just like this song, we work harder just to survive but we can't live the life we want no mater how much we work while other people get richer from our hard work and live the life we want, and we can't change it

[SuperMasterk]

This song is amazing, granted I think that about the entire album

[brandonb]

Aaaaah this video is so good! I love the visuals, I love the song🤩
I need more Galactikraken in my life. FOR GLORY OR GOLD WE SAIL ACROSS THE GALAXY!
