    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.

    • @Stussmeister
      @Stussmeister Před 9 lety +10

      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.

    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.

    • @eslm-studios2996
      @eslm-studios2996 Před 8 lety +2

      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.

    • @RiflemanMoore
      @RiflemanMoore Před 8 lety +3

      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.

    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.

    @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.

  • @Amberleen_the_Light_Eevee

    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.

    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
