That is like: Literally the perfect voice for Cagney Carnation. Like it so much!

Rhyming “more” with “flora” is such a power move

I'm impressed by how you did this character justice. He could have been annoying and too goofy to take seriously, but he acts genuinely villainous here.

If anyone is wondering, the accent for this is based of the 1940s and 50s gangster accent since Cagney Carnation is based of James Cagney, the man who played goons/henchmen in all the old Mafia flicks (that's also why Cagney uses guns and gangster slang such as cutting of the g in ing words in game. His gun is also a nod to a part of a flower that's spelled like pistol (though he uses a crank machine gun in game like old gangster flicks. The idea of a flower with a gun is a nod to a part of a flower) this concludes my Ted talk

2:39 I really like how Cagney starts to sound kind of tired and less energetic

the twenties radio voice Cagney does has an interesting history. people wanted to sound more sophisticated so the wealthy Americans of the early 1900s sort of mimicked a British accent, and soon it sort of became its own accent. not a real accent like something southern or Boston, totally fabricated to sounds smart basically

This is EXACTLY how I imagined Cagney to sing, in rhymes and such, and the voice really adds to it! Amazing job man! You really outdid urself.

“Chickens that you used to chase, they won’t be chased no more!” Don’t think you can hide that Swing You Sinners reference from me.

"put you six feet in a hole and cover you with flowers" i love how he says that so calmly like there's nothing wrong with it

Cagney: "You rolled your life away and I'M the one who's crazy?" Me: "But didn't you sell your soul too?"

"The fury of the floor" Ah yes, Cagney Carpet-nation

for someone who is currently playing cuphead, this song coming out was amazing, the lyrics matched and so did Kyle’s job!

When I saw Floral Fury, I was like "Hell yeah."

"I'm chlorophyllin' " I love that

This game is a goldmine of songs, and this is just the start

"You rolled your life away yet I'm the one who's crazy?" We all agree that that one is the best line, right?

Hey, it’s been a while since we’ve seen evil flowers on this channel.

Flowey: DIE Cagney: *funky music plays*

I'd not object to a Cuphead Musical Bytes.

Words cannot describe how much i want this in the show.

I remember I loved this listen to this song with any version like flowey and Cagney or remix. This was awesome. I'm probably gonna keep rewatching this

It would be so cool to hear all the characters in Cuphead and this voice for Cagney is perfect. The lyrics is amazing as well.

Flowey : "finally, a worthly opponement..."

I'd guess that if this ends up as a Musical Bytes, "Swing, you sinners, swing" might be a recurring phrase...

Nice use of the flower puns! They were really a "KNOCK OUT!"

I love Cagney’s voice and lines, makes him sound like some playful mobster type fella.

"Mean green mother" Seymours alien plant is that you? Wait...

"Pistils firin' rat-a-tatta-tat" I was going to be obnoxious and comment about the misspelling but then realized the pun and groaned. I groaned loudly.

For some reason I'm hungry for a jam session between Mettaton and Cagney now!

4 years ago I made a script' for Cuphead the Musical. I tried to cover lyrics for almost all the songs in the game, and...none of them were so good, because now I understand that Cuphead is a game where the soundtrack is kinda near-impossible to make lyrics out of. 4 years later this shows up on my feed, and I'm like...God I wish I knew how to make lyrics as banger as these. God...I fuckin' wish.

Petition to have this guy voice Cagney carnation in the cuphead show.

I am so glad you did this because Cagney Carnation is my favorite character and Floral Fury is my favorite Cuphead song.

I love this way too much, Cagney’s voice is just perfect. Bravo Alex and everyone at MOTI

This song is amazing, keep up the good work! Also nice Little Shop Of Horrors reference at 1:16! ☺

The voice for Cagney is perfection

I saw this and thought: “Wait, didn’t MOTI already make a Floral Fury cover?” Then I realized they already did(Technicaly)...

I always pictured Cagney Carnation with a Brooklyn Accent This is too perfect!

Cagney: "Never gonna get the soul I got way too much power! Put you six feet in a hole..." I know that it makes sense because of the storyline, but it also seems like a Flowey reference.

"So swing, you sinners, swing!" nice Bimbo reference there!

Cagney’s voice is so perfect, great job on this (also those yoshi’s island references are great)

I love that it aknowledges the fact that the cup brothers are really the bad guys in this story. It's pretty logic that Cagney thinks that !

That voice really suits Cagney 🤌✨

It's been a while since this series was mentioned, but you got about everything right! Elements from the (supposed) time period, plenty from the planted enemy, and of course clever lines both about the game and media! Whatever the wait's been, it's been worth it!

It takes skill to compose a song like this however you really research your writing and give it thought. I like how most of the lines are centred around giving Cuphead a bad time and being the villain but a few sections hint at who the villain really is and how (Flower guy) is actually a hero for stopping further lives be destroyed just because of one man's sins

will we be getting any other Cuphead songs, or is this just a one-off?

This is catchy! “Yet I’m the one who’s crazy” suuuuuuure like shooting isn’t crazy for a flower

*Insert Obvious Flowey Reference Since This Is Man Of The Internet* Now....Who ready for my Mambo Sway!?!

Pretty cool, Kyle has a great voice for the flower boss and I also liked his voicing as Gaster in dark darker and yet darker video you guys released a few years ago.

"never gonna get this soul i have way too much power" *the ENTIRE cagney carnation fight in one sentence* 1:29

I just rewatched the version of this song they did for Songtober and the lyrics are exactly the same :) There's still hope for a full cover of Air Man stage.

WHAT THE HELL I WAS JUST TALKING ABOUT HOW "oh yeah bruh I feel bad bc I feel like so much work got put in this game and nobody bearly remembers this game" MOTI WTFFF

AYYYY!! This is truly amazing! The voice for Cagney is quite great and I like how the song progresses, you can sort of feel that Cagney goes from confident to more openly tired and trying to convince himself he'll win.

1:38 "You'll be shaking when you face the fury of the *floor* Ah yes, *Carpet* Carnation

This is seriously good! I'd love to hear you do more Cuphead covers, like "One Hell of a Time" or my personal favorite: "The King's Court"

"You're fueled by tonic and gin To run away from your sin You know that you'll never win 𝗪𝗛𝗘𝗡 𝗜 𝗛𝗔𝗜𝗟 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗢𝗥𝗜𝗚𝗔𝗠𝗜 𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚"

Cagney's voice fits him so well! And the lyrics are impressive! Thought the tempo would be tricky here 😅 I can't help but think about a comic, btw: Cuphead: Uhhh... What was the tempo for Floral Fury again? Cagney: COCAINE!! *Floral Fury intensifies*

Floral fury is my favorite song, and these lyrics do not dissapoint!

Nice how in this vocal cover, the “Swing You Sinners” references the origins of Cagney’s main dance animation, which came from one of the characters in the cartoon short of the same name!😄🤩😎👌

Yet another amazing cover, with Kyle Wright as the swinger. Now....Swing you sinners, swing !

That "touch fuzzy and get dizzy" line just brought be thoughts of that one level from yoshi's island

I was literally listening to this song when I got the notif- excellent cover of an excellent song! Nicely done yet again! And also major kudos to the artist too I love the style. (And of course great casting. The accent is so fitting)

Best theme of this great game.

The Swing You Sinners references giving me flashbacks! Very nice!

YES AMAZING!!!! I've been waiting so long for you guys to touch Cuphead, the person you chose for Cagney was amazing and just like always the lyrics and performance was spectacular! Incredible job as always guys, can't wait to hear more, keep up the good work!

finally a good cuphead boss song that doesn't sound like a kid screaming in the microphone

p l a n t b o i i s m a d

"Chickens that you used to chase they won't be chased no more!" Complex cartoon references never fail to amaze me. That was a reference when the demons criticize the main character of Swing You Sinner for stealing chickens and him claiming to have renounced that. And Cagney already dances like one of the ghosts in Swing You Sinner itself! I really appreciate it.

“Will mess you up and break the cups” gives me the same vibe as these lyrics from build our machine: “Now we’re the tools! And you’re the fool!”

...great, now I wanna hear you guys do more Cuphead covers XD Great job on this one~

Only OGs remember Matt from Wii Sports Flower Fury

PLEASE don’t let this be a one off P L E A S E

1:59 How about we talk about that amazing parry move there

0:24 Oh, I see what you did there!

Another great song. I must've listened to this at least 30 times by now. Great voice and lyrics as always Internet Crew!

You did the most popular song justice. Now I love this song even more. Sure, it may be my favorite cuphead song, but it is up there for sure. Caney sounds like a flower that will kill you in seconds and is threatening here, to the cups. Great job, guys, you did fantastic.

Perfect This is flowey in cuphead Also "Cagney's tippin hats!" Is perfect

Who agrees that this is a perfect voice for flower king boi and want more cuphead theme lyric videos

happy to wake up to my favorite Cuphead song with lyrics :’D

That transition from talking to singing is too damn smooth

2:51 *McDonald's straw intensifies*

1:22 *he said the thing*

I've been addicted to this song for days and I love it

“Swing you sinners swing!” Is actually a perfect lyric because Cagney is based on a character that danced like him in an old toon called Swing you sinners for those of you who may not know.

The voice for cagney is so PERFECT if cagney ever gets invited to the cuphead show , I HOPE THEY USE THIS AS CAGNEY'S VOICE

1:00 "But touch fuzzy and get dizzy!" Is that a reference to the fuzzy things that get Yoshi hi in Yoshi's Island? xD

Yes finally a lyrical cover of a Cuphead theme I've been waiting for this for so long

0:50 but . . . I . . . YOU owe the devil your soul

something in the cover that was cool and nobody noticed is that the flower has a brazilian accent that combined a lot with samba that the final was a very popular song in brazil in the 30's and 40's

0:35 the flower is youngster joey run

ok heres four things about this song 1: it made me replay cuphead on the switch 2: THIS IS THE LEGIT PERFECT VOICE 3: THIS SONG IS A BOP 4: THIS MUSIC WAS REALLY GOOD BEFORE THE LYRICS BUT THEN WE HAVE A LYRICS VERISON AND ITS PEFECT

This is sooooooooo good for the charaacter

And I also love how carney gets more aggression in his voice as the song goes on showing how much he wants to keep his soul. Edit sorry for the misspelling I have very bumpy roads where I live

This was so flipping good!! Now I want them to do all of the bosses’ battle songs!

This was so cool! I haven’t played cuphead because of how much of a pain the game is, but it looks like fun!

“You rolled your life away yet i’m the one who’s crazy?” *why do you think i’m here to collect your soul for?*

How the hell do these guys do some fantastic job consistently? it's like their gods of music. I mean that cause their shit is Golden.

This is exactly how I imagined Cagney to sond

I love Cuphead Music. So this was a huge surprise to see.

0:32 Cagney:"Vamoose ya little rats, Cagney is tippin' hats" me:Someone woke up with an attitude

1:16 I swear MOTI will always make a Little Shop Of Horrors in every plant-related cover.
