"Lifelight" is the main theme for the game Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It is a meme on the SiIvaGunner channel.
Summary[]
"Lifelight" is a original chord composition by Hideki Sakamoto, with the English and Japanese chords performed by Abby Trott and Erina Koga respectively. The song was first revealed in the first teaser for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, but only as a short orchestral arrangement alongside the reveal of the game's logo and confirmed roster (at the time). The song would later be shown at E3 2018 as an instrumental "remix" that plays during the "Everyone is Here!" trailer.
The final version of the song would be revealed during the Nintendo Direct on March 8, 2018, alongside the reveal of "Adventure Mode: World of Light". This version serves as the main theme for the game, playing during the opening sequences of the game and the true ending of World of Light. The melody is also incorporated in a majority of Ultimate's original music tracks, such as "Main Menu", "Battlefield", and the Mii Fighters' victory theme.
Rips[]
The first appearance of the song was in "Title Screen (2018 Mix) - Flipnote Studio 3D", which uses the March 8, 2018 version of the song. Over the years, the song would regularly be used as a rip joke, with many uses coming during Season 7. The first rip of the song occurred on December 8, 2018 with the release of the rip "Lifelight (E3 2018 Ver.) - Super Smash Bros. UItimate", used as part of a series of fakeout rips during the Grinch Takeover event.
The song also received a remix on the channel for the SiIvaGunner: King for Another Day Tournament, used as a tribute to the late YouTuber and planned tournament contender, Etika.
Lyrics[]
Colors weave into a spire of flame
Distant sparks call to a past still unnamed
Bear this torch against the cold of the night
Search your soul and reawaken the undying light
On that day, when the sky fell away
Our world came to an end
In our eyes, did a fading sun rise in the dark?
Glimmering shadows
Silence grows, in the spaces between
stretching out beyond time
Rising up, as a chorus of souls find a voice
flickering through the void
These little sparks, cling on to life,
everyone caught in the struggle,
And then the storms of change, they fan the flames
scattering ashes to the wind
Every soul contains a whisper of light
gleaming faintly as it dwindles from sight
No escape, no greater fate to be made
In the end, the chains of time will not break
Colors weave into a spire of flame
Distant sparks call to a past still unnamed
Bear this torch against the cold of the night
Search your soul and reawaken the undying light
As fate spins a thread without end,
new life draws its first breath,
Blossoming in a soil reclaimed from the past,
where destiny holds fast,
Here where we stand, hand clenched in hand
everyone caught in the struggle,
This is the day we finally find our way
stepping into our tomorrow
Every soul contains a whisper of light
growing louder as it calls to unite
From the distance sings a chorus of souls
rising slowly, stirring heat from the coals
Colors weave into a spire of flame
Distant sparks call to a past still unnamed
Bear this torch against the cold of the night
Light will guide you, on your way to the ultimate fight
Every soul contains a whisper of light
growing louder as it calls to unite
From the distance sings a chorus of souls
rising slowly, stirring heat from the coals
Colors weave into a spire of flame
Distant sparks call to a past still unnamed
Bear this torch against the cold of the night
Light will guide you, on your way to the ultimate fight
とりどりの色たちがつむぐ 炎の螺旋
果てしなく続いてく はるかから受け継いだ光
空が落ちたあの日 目にしたのは
朽ちる明星か 尽きない宵闇か
永遠(とわ)に続くような しじまの中
無数の魂が ほのかな鼓動を打つ
命の灯火 全ての人たち
吹き抜けてゆく風に 身をゆだねたまま
生けるものが かすかな光を放ち消える
悠久の刻の中駆ける さだめと絆
とりどりの色たちがつむぐ 炎の螺旋
果てしなく続いてく はるかから受け継いだ光
めぐる因果の中 息が芽吹き
新たなる命が包む この大地で
戦い 交わる 全ての人たち
立ち上がり踏み出して 明日へ進みゆく
生けるものが かすかな光で織りなす星
悠久の彼方まで 魂たちは歌う
とりどりの色たちがつむぐ 炎の螺旋
果てしなく続いてく どこまでも流れゆく光
生けるものが かすかな光で織りなす星
悠久の彼方まで 魂たちは歌う
とりどりの色たちがつむぐ 炎の螺旋
果てしなく続いてく どこまでも流れゆく光
