Here's my version of Diesel's Theme. Hope you enjoy!

This theme always gave me chills as a kid, ever since I first watched Pop Goes the Diesel. It fits him so well: suave, ominous, oily, mechanical, slightly threatening and extremely creepy. In other words, it just screams "THIS IS THE BAD GUY!!!!" You, good sir, have taken it and compounded the effect. I tip my hat to you, sir.
Indeed. One could also say it brings to mind images of a snake slithering through the grass, and considering how Diesel creeps around the yard causing trouble, it is certainly fitting for his character.
@@elsbridgefilms5005 If that's the way you feel, then that's fine, and I don't begrudge you a bit for feeling that way.
@@elsbridgefilms5005 That's quite all right. I'm not one to get into long, heated arguments with people online anyways, as I feel my energy could be spent better elsewhere (like listening to music from my childhood).
The look on diesel's face, you almost expect him to yell out "What are you looking at?"
Diesel was pretty much the only guy I remembered out of the entire cast. I think it was because he was so different.
He has such nice theme. I had no idea.
Better than that darned theme tune, any way.
This piece of Diesel's theme makes him almost like a villain, nice music.
He is a villain...
No he isn't.
Euan Mort He is. He may not be in the crappy modern Thomas universe but that really doesn't count.
He isn't a villain because he just tries to show the Fat Controller how good diesels are like on how Zorran and his mates try to steal the Star Tugs jobs, I don't call that being a villain.
Euan Mort It's not the intent but the means, the Z Stacks are an even better example, they use villainous and underhanded means to achieve their goals, that's what make them the villains.
YEAH DEVIOUS DIESEL! One character who is very high on my favourite character list.
Not sure if I already made a comment on this, but I love what you did with this arrangement! Im not sure why, but the Spanish guitar mixed with the original clarinet lead gives it this real Latin/Arabic vibe and the shadiness of the melody reinforces Diesel's slimy personality.
4 years later, still gives me chills. I have goosebumps, that's how awesome this is! Wonderful work!
See this theme makes diesel look like the best diesel of all the class 08 shunters
My little boy (3) absolutely loves these SilverDragonTV Thomas themes - these arrangements sound so full and well-made - we play them loud in my car as we're driving! I wish there was more - like the Mavis theme and of course the Donald & Douglas theme.
This is awsome. I must say, I really do think that Thomas the Tank Engine was at his peak in the 1st two seasons.
The English Horn part sounds so beautiful.
"We diesels don't need to learn. We know everything. We come to a yard and improve it. We are revolutionary."
Sounds to me like Diesel was the first Cyberman of the new Doctor Who...
I'm playing this theme while running the locomotive that some website said was the American version of Diesel.
One of my favorite themes imagine if you play this in the dark no lights and you fall asleep to it and in your dream diesel is trying exterminate you creeepy
Smartypants wilson "SWEET DREAMS," purred Diesel in an oily voice.
and when you wake up you feel like diesel is actually stalking you wherever you go until you listen to another ttte theme you like and you fall asleep and dream about it 😨😨😨😩😵😵😱😱😅😁
Smartypants wilson (Listens to this theme, falls asleep)
Diesel: HAW HAW HAW! I AM THE FREDDY CROUGER OF SODOR! I WILL KILL YOU IN YOUR DREAMS!
(My car's on the rails, it won't start, and Diesel is speeding toward me)
Me: GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!
(Wakes up)
Me: Damn! What a nightmare!
(Drives down the road, hears this on the radio, and sees a black class 08 shunter cross the crossing)
Me: NNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
(Goes home, listens to James's theme, falls asleep)
James: I am a splendid serial killer! Ready for anything! I'm supposed to be white, but my paint is blood! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! (BLOWS WHISTLE)
Me: Fuck you, creepypastas!
James: Kidding! Wanna play cards and smoke two joints?
(Wakes up. James drives through my house and we smoke two joints and play cards forever)
The Sudrian Teenager
And Thomas the Dank Engine joins you.
thetravinator9 James: in the house I smoke two joints, in the car I smoke two joints, I play video games, and for every thousand points, I smoke two joints!
(I wake up again at it was just a 4F Fowler that crashed into my house)
Me: Aw. But hey, free steam engine!
(Drags it into barn with giant truck)
I could listen to this first all day! It really holds on.
"Trust In Meeeee and just in Meeeee"
@maxm2317 Thanks ;) Yeah, for some reason, this tune always struck me as having a "spaghetti western" type melody. I may have also connected it with that genre because it's the story of an outlaw who rides into town and causes trouble for the local hero.
Love the bassoon and oboe in the opening! Also like the Spanish guitar! Definitely my favorite remake of the theme. Well done!!!!
Diesel and his bad ways
You have redefined a devious theme for a devious Diesel! Marvelous!
For something that was made in 2010 and STILL!!! (I mean its hardly surprising) holds up to this day.
This was a really good cover to listen to over the couple years I found it 🙌💯🤘
This is awsome!!!!!
Wow! It's like the classic composers made this themselves! I'm definately subscribing!
SilverDragonTV's soundfont notes: We come to a soundtrack and improve it. We are revolutionary. 😎
outstanding arrangement, especially the second half with the guitar etc
Holy f... the Spanish Guitar works so goddamn well. Who would have thought?
What Can I Tell...It's A-W-E-S-O-M-E!
I don't quite remember how it got to that moment but I kinda felt sorry for him when he was up past his fender in pond water. Yeah, I guess he was an anti villain.
This is better than the original!
Wow! I can't get over how fantastically brilliant your themes are! Can't wait for more!
I love the guitar in this
4 and 5 of the dislikes are the barber and the fat controller
And duck
I remember him the most.
i've always loved his theme
I'm Full Of Surprises.......Diesel-The Great Race
This is the best theme EVER!!
Diesel's Unusual Glare Makes Me Have Nightmares!
love it (hate to say this but it is better than the other engine's themes)
This was actually enough to distract me from Devil May Cry
this is wonderful, thank you for sharing your work!
Diesel is a anti-villain unlike the rest of the diesel engines and therefore he is not truly evil.
Although Diesel wants to prove that diesel engines are better than steam engines and made them miserable, on occasion Diesel has been shown to help the steam engines.
Despite his oily personality and malicious attitude, Diesel does want to prove he is a really useful engine.
He is oily, malicious, devious, scheming and full of ideas to get revenge.
But from Season 10 and onwards, Diesel shows that he actually does have a good side in him, but one would still have to look quite deep to find it.
Hypnotic yet cool
Now, here's a theme I've always liked... now I like it even more. I've been trying to get my hands on a program called Auralia so I can write some sheet music for Season 1 & 2 themes. I already piece themes together as it is (and, dare I say it, one of the best in that business) and boy, do I enjoy it. I'm going to try and do Diesel's soon.
I love how you've added a Spanish-esque guitar the second round when you played it. I give up... I LOVE IT! I just LOVE IT, ok? xP
That was way past cool!! Why cant we have the old themes back?
I like the guitar in this
The engines were glad when a visitor came.
love the guitar gives me Mexico vibes
O'Donnell and Campbell would be proud if they heard this :D
A very enjoyable take on a very enjoyable character's theme, nice work.
@SilverDragonTV it certainly suits that description it also adds a sinister feel to it.
I don't remember the music except that excruciating theme tune, but yeah, I love his theme.
Sweet
this reminds a snake enchanter and i love it!
Yes
Very much Erwin
How goes tankery?
+Kyaw Thu ? tankety? what oh! i don,t do tankery, i do thomy!
AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!
i'd like to hear Duck's theme redone he was my favourite engine in the old series
Epic
Great!!!
this is amazing. well comprised and put together. but the origanal will always be supreme with this theme. dont get me wrong i love it and its really well made =)

Wow I'm very old!
ARABIAN NIIIIGGGHTTTSS
Duck, Gordon, Henry, James and the trucks disliked this
"Good Morning, Pleased to meet you Duck..."
Diesel Forever
That made it 20% cooler
Did you make the theme yourself , because it's great
Brilliant remake here. Are you going to keep producing these? I've watched the others and they're fantastic.
Me like! It has a very excellent spanish flare to it.
And I subscribed because of this! ;) Excellent work, and keep it up! ;D
What a perfect rendition. I subb'd.

Sounds very Spanish-esque. Nice work.
-Max
Batman the animadit series may have joy to use for two face
"Buenos dias. Encantado de conocerte, Duck. ¿Son James, Henry y Gordon también? Estoy encantado de conocer motores tan famosos."
"Las tontas locomotoras estaban encantadas! Que buenos modales , pensaron, que buen hablar tiene"
"Diesel necesita aprender. Enseñale , Duck"
I like how you used the guitar at 0:44 (I think that's what is is). It adds a bit of a desperado feeling to it.
"Good morning" 😈
Squirmed Diesel in an oily voice
Sounds like a song from Aladdin
Excellent! May I use this for my series?
Fantastic
"Your Subscription To SilverDragonTV Has Been Added."

Thumbs up if you can imagine Simon Templeman doing the voice of Diesel

James as a cowboy? That's scary.
Yep, spanish guitar
Indeed! O.O

Diesel: GRRRRRRRR!!!
Make more
can I use this?
Were you that one? Or someone else?
1 person is a steamer
I wish you could do Thomas, Percy, Toby, Edward, James, and Duck
@lloydi a cleveland steamer
no diesel 10 needs a theme
14 dislikes!?!? Whoever dislikes is a hater of youtube
This would make great elevator music.
3 of the likes are Gordon, James, and Henry.
Thank you for arranging these diesel i must go now.
@TheFattHatt1943 lol Red Engine Redemption
