Netflix One Piece Live-Action Series Reveals Main Theme Song titled “WEALTH FAME POWER”
Here’s a look at the official Netflix One Piece live-action series titled “Wealth Fame Power” which was composed and performed by Sonya Belousova and Giona Ostinelli.
Here’s what they wrote about their main theme song:
“Wealth Fame Power!” – Gold Roger the legendary dreaded Pirate King, obtained this and everything else the world has to offer. His dying words drove countless souls to the seas in search of his buried treasure. There’re many shared similarities between Gold Rogerand the Straw Hat’s captain, Monkey D Luffy, their personalities and character traits absolutely match up, so are their music themes. Monkey D Luffy’s theme is the main theme of our show. Gold Roger’s theme is Luffy’s theme reversed. “Wealth Fame Power” opens up with Roger’s theme. It’s powerful, just like Roger himself, driving, and dynamic. It’s a dark, mighty anthem featuring the iconic “musical Jolly Roger” – hurdy-gurdy. As soon as the swords are drawn and the crowd rushes out in search of ONE PIECE, we reverse Roger’s theme and introduce Luffy’s theme, the main theme of our show. Roger’s theme is all about the descending motion since this is the end of the journey for Roger. Luffy’s theme, however, is all about the ascending motion since it’s the beginning of his exciting adventure toward becoming the King of the Pirates.”
