Now or Never!

Now or Never is a song originally performed by Squid Squad.

Description
Like most Squid Squad songs, Now or Never! is a rock and electronic music fusion, with a heavy emphasis on vocals. It's very short, only lasting a minute long, the song starts with an ascending sequence, before the vocals come in, which feature lots of chants. Once the song approaches the end, the outro once again plays the same ascending sequence until the song ends. During the final minute of every Regular Battle, Now or Never plays, to signify the approaching finish. Due to the lack of a consistent definite finishing points, Now or Never! does not play during Ranked Battle.

Like all other major versions, this version is part of the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate soundtrack.

Lyrics
From the booklet included with Splatoon Live in Makuhari was the official lyrics for the Squid Sisters cover of Now or Never, however they could be used for most versions. The lyrics are nonsensical; the Japanese hiragana simply gives the pronunciation.

Now or Never! (Squid Sisters)
During Splatfests, all the regular music is replaced with Squid Sisters songs. Therefore, instead of the standard Squid Squad version, a cover is used instead by the Squid Sisters at the last minute mark. This version is less intense than the original, with more of a celebratory theme, with production leaning towards the more pop style of the Squid Sisters rather than the rock based original.

Like all other major versions, this version is part of the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate soundtrack.

Now or Never! (Wet Floor)
No new Squid Squad songs appear in Splatoon 2 matches (later revealed to be due to the group's disbandment), with Wet Floor taking their place. Although their catalog consists mostly of all new compositions, they also recorded a new version of Now or Never for use at the end of Regular Battles, taking on a more punk rock direction like the rest of the Wet Floor songs. This version also includes harmonising of vocals.

Like all other major versions, this version is part of the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate soundtrack.

Now or Never! (Off the Hook)
Like what the Squid Sisters did in Splatoon, Off the Hook recorded a new version for Splatfests.

Like all other major versions, this version is part of the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate soundtrack.

Etymology
Since this song only plays during the last one minute of the match, the title Now or Never! is alerting you that there's only one minute left and whatever you want to do, do it now or never do it at all.
