The Portal End Credits song trilogy is finally complete!! The incredible Benny Benack III returns once more with another Jonathan Coulton composed game music hit "You Wouldn't Know" from Lego Dimensions: Portal!
In this arrangement, I fused this incredible tune with the big band classic "Ain't That a Kick in the Head" originally sung by Dean Martin (which was arranged by the great Nelson Riddle)! It's a testament to great song writing when your lyrics and melody can function in an entirely different context like this, so huge thanks to Jonathan Coulton for this great piece of music!

@mustachemiss1983 10 месяцев назад

@@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).

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

@governor_explosion Год назад

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!

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)
