The Grammy award-winning The 8-Bit Big Band and Lawrence are releasing a new cover of the Marvel vs Capcom 2 song "I Wanna Take You for a Ride." It's been covered many times by the VGM community, but in this instance, new verses and a bridge accompany the admittedly repetitive tune.

Marvel vs Capcom 2 jam gets taken for a ride
Despite the original release from Marvel vs Capcom 2 (https://www.destructoid.com/marvel-vs-capcom-2-arcade1up-cabinet-on-the-way-news/) repeating the same line over and over again, it's one with a special place in fan memories with a funky beat too delicious to ignore. Thankfully, The 8-Bit Big Band and Lawrence bring their own vision to the bop with a full song based on the loop. This version adds new lyrics, verses, and a bridge next month on November 10.
The 45 seconds released on social media from The 8-Bit Big Band has an outstanding suite of brass instruments and thrilling vocals. Almost time for MAHVEL, baby.
Last year, the 8-Bit Big Band (and Button Basher) won a "Best Arrangement - Instrumental or A Capella" Grammy for its cover of "Meta Knight's Revenge" (https://www.destructoid.com/kirby-up-for-a-grammy-award-thanks-to-the-8-bit-big-band/) from Kirby Super Star. Since its release in 2021, the theme received over 1 million views on YouTube.
Perhaps with this upcoming Marvel vs Capcom 2 (https://www.destructoid.com/review-marvel-vs-capcom-2/) cover, they'll get another Grammy. Nevertheless, The 8-Bit Big Band has an upcoming show in New York on December 15. Its fourth album, "Game Changer," accompanies the Marvel jam on November 10.
