Gourmet Race from Kirby's perspective: free food with a friend

Gourmet Race the way Dedede retells it:

[DaveyD]

Me: Hmm, I wonder what MOTI means by “Epic”?

*Instantly hit with Kirby choir and Opera singing Dedede*

Me: …We…have peaked.

[CeHee]

Instrumental says battle between gods. Lyrics are still about two blobby boys having a race and still gaining calories.

[Archmage_Marmu]

Dedede eats so much, he needs two renditions to be satisfied

[tgun]

I wasn't expecting an Orchestra version of Gourmet Race, nor was I expecting it to sound as good as it does.

[nicolbolas]

We’ve had Undertale: the Musical. Now it’s time for Kirby: the Opera

[clunk]

I like to imagine the original Gourmet Race with Lyrics is how the actual race went down, while this one is from Dedede's perspective, agrandizing himself as a champion while unaware that Kirby's actually beating him in a race

[owengonzalez]

That shot of Dedede as he says “There’s nobody on this planet that loves food more than me” is just perfect

[bahesb]

I love how dedede is singing about defeating Kirby while Kirby is doing the chorus for him. Kirby is such a kind being, helping dedede look cool even though he always tries to humiliate him.

True Smash bros Melee fans dont fight in the mountain of dreams before 0:12

[BagelsNSyrup]

I was not prepared for chad anime Dedede today but here we are.

[neox]

Now THIS is the truest portrayal of Dedede I’ve seen

[DrPokemon]

This isn't a meal, this is the entire buffet.

[bahesb]

Juno Songs: gives dedede his legendary voice from „Kirby right back at ya“.

Man on the Internet: gives dedede a powerfully, majestic voice.

[hydrixaquatic]

Whelp, we officially have the absolute best Gourmet Race lyrical cover. There's no contest. This is absolutely peak. The Chad Anime Dedede singing opera alongside a chorus of Kirby is just absolutely perfect. This is it. This is what perfection looks like. There is absolutely no topping this. A round of applause to his majesty, a standing ovation for the King of Dreamland! A perfect 10/10!

[jasonjasso]

I…did not know Alex could sing like that.

[ITzaMii_]

Easy to make ironic jokes about this reducing me to tears and being the peak of the package aside, this is unironically really good for a joke song.

[SoUmBrasileiro]

2:29 King Dedede: "It's the taste of your defeat!"
Kirby: Pi, poyo pi ya po. (So, I have news for you.)

[Heruilli]

The poyos and the chad dedede got me like wtf.
There is really somone that was asked to record himself saying poyo pe pa poyo e an said "yeah sure".

[gtcproductions]

1:06 I don’t know why, but this part feels royally perfect
