Earthbound Music: Eight Melodies

I uploaded music from the SNES game Earthbound at YouTube:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Lxu8nbARYQ&feature=PlayList&p=718A7EF47B86DC9D&index=0&playnext=1 

This is my most popular Earthbound song on YouTube:

This is the eight melodies theme that plays after you visit all eight of your sanctuaries and collect the memories of your life with your Sound Stone. When your at Ness’s dream, you will absorb the power of all your sanctuaries once you defeat your nightmare. After gaining your new found power, your stats increase greatly and you are more than ready to finish the game.

It looks like Ness is returning to Super Smash Bros. Brawl with newcomer Lucas. Speaking of Smash, one of my favorite moves is to use Ness’s PK Thunder and shock yourself with it and user your body as an electrical charge to attack other opponents. I always thought using yourself as a weapon, literally was hilarious. Those were good times.

  10. 10 waytwokool4skool

    [..YouTube..] earthbound>chrono trigger

  11. 11 TehRavage

    [..YouTube..] My favorite RPG of all time.I would severely injure who ever was behind not releasing the other two games outside of Japan.

  12. 12 Ultima45

    [..YouTube..] Personally I like Earthbound Zero melody the most after that comes Earthbound, then the: “they better make mother 3 come out on the US”

  13. 13 DeDaDoDu

    [..YouTube..] the best game ever…. mother and earthbound RULEZ… but i like the eight melodies from mother more

  14. 14 rptheory

    [..YouTube..] Me too!!

  15. 15 WaBooLax

    [..YouTube..] I remember when I was fighting the last boss of this game… pure awesomeness! This game rocks at all levels!!!

  16. 16 magnusLordN

    [..YouTube..] Feel the power of happiness and dreams!

  17. 17 ninjamarioX

    [..YouTube..] The music was also awsome tho!I still listen to Fourside all the time.

  18. 18 NorbPwn

    [..YouTube..] Without a doubt it had memorable music. It really shines in the story telling department though.

  19. 19 Ultima45

    [..YouTube..] This song was just perfect on the fight with Giygas.

  20. 20 ZblueboltZ

    [..YouTube..] we need a DS/WII version now lol

  21. 21 Edsanji

    [..YouTube..] My favorite song how you get all pieces together I rebember… “Darn I can wait to have all the pieces together…” And the reward was this memorable song.

  22. 22 BouncingBarnicle

    [..YouTube..] Doesn’t this seem like it should have lyrics? I can just hear the words!

  23. 23 BouncingBarnicle

    [..YouTube..] That would be NoA (nintendo of america) Look up the head honcho of it)

  24. 24 Dorgannn

    [..YouTube..] Tbis is Smiles and Tears, not Eight Melodies.

  25. 25 Dr4G0nF1r3z

    [..YouTube..] It’s the Eight Melodies in Mother 2. >_>

  26. 26 Flashcardz

    [..YouTube..] There actually is a version with lyrics

  27. 27 fenixspirit367

    [..YouTube..] 0:18-0:30people who had played older smash, doesnt that sound familiar?

  28. 28 wasp2020

    [..YouTube..] Yeah, Itoi (creator of the game) wrote lyrics for it, as well as a lot of the songs from the first game.

  29. 29 gamerelite3

    [..YouTube..] This is smiles and tears, not eight melodies.

  30. 30 gamerelite3

    [..YouTube..] Yeah, everyones victory is based off one of their songs.

  31. 31 Yashumoto

    [..YouTube..] In Mother 0 it may have been ( I haven’t played it yet ), but in Earthbound (Mother 2) it’s Eight Melodies.

  32. 32 FourHammers

    [..YouTube..] This is Smiles and tears!!!

  33. 33 Linkzcap

    <-Notice the non-Youtube. lol

    This music amazes me because it’s really nice and the game is based around it, in a very creative way.

  34. 34 RaineMan213

    [..YouTube..] Well, you’re sort of right. It was the same concept in both games. Collect pieces of a song and use it (and the love it created) to destroy Gigas. However, the title of the song created for Mother was “Eight Melodies” while in Mother 2 (Earthbound) it’s “Smiles and Tears”So, the correct statement would be “The eight melodies from Earthbound is called ‘Smiles and Tears’”.Now go play Mother.

  35. 35 retrogamer500

    [..YouTube..] “In Mother 0 it may have been ( I haven’t played it yet ), but in Earthbound (Mother 2) it’s Eight Melodies.”There is no such thing as Mother 0. You are probably talking about Mother 1, or, as some English speaking folks call it, Earthbound 0.

  36. 36 neokids88

    [..YouTube..] Does it matter what the song is called?I found this song by the name that constantlimit named it. Thank you constantlimit for posting this.

  37. 37 zyboser

    [..YouTube..] I liked it better than Brawl’s victoryWhere is the new one from anyway?

  38. 38 LoZcrazymad

    [..YouTube..] Mother 3 I think.

  39. 39 JXN01

    [..YouTube..] from a part of earthbound zero intro just hear the whole song you might find it

  40. 40 secretavenger11

    [..YouTube..] Aww man, who remembers the guide that came with this game!?! Do you guys remember those stickers that had different smells on them? My favorite was the monkey sticker. It smelt like bananas. Wow, that was random. I could remember the smell when this song came on. I love Earthbound. Such great memories…

  41. 41 spoildajv13

    [..YouTube..] The game is actually called “Mother Zero” or just “Mother.”And it was Eight Melodies.

  42. 42 Mastamoose

    [..YouTube..] It’s from the MOTHER1 title screen song.

  43. 43 floydhead42

    [..YouTube..] No, it was never called Mother 0. You see, it was named Mother in Japan, and was localized to the US and Europe as Earth Bound. That translation was never released though, so when Mother 2 came out in the States, they held onto the EarthBound name so there (a) there wouldn’t be a bunch of people looking for Mother 1 and (b) Nintendo’s trademark on EarthBound wouldn’t be wasted. So, there is no Mother 0.

  44. 44 BigEagles33

    [..YouTube..] I want this played at my funeral

  45. 45 Lloydllink

    [..YouTube..] And the last part of the 8 melodies of Mother 1, we can also hear it on the Onett stage of SSBM.

  46. 46 yuyuhakushox

    [..YouTube..] its from the melodys of mother 3. kinda like how the ssbb victory is the 8 melodys

  47. 47 zyboser

    [..YouTube..] Ok, I now know that it is from the title screen. Thank you.I do not think MOTHER 3 had melodies to colect, unlike the previoues games.

  48. 48 kittenluvermeowz

    [..YouTube..] It did not.how ever it had 7…needle things.I don’t know, I’m waiting for the fan-trans.

  49. 49 pennyxroyalty

    [..YouTube..] Holy crap, I remember those scented stickers! Wow, major childhood flashback.

  50. 50 stealthtaco37

    [..YouTube..] do do do da do dee dee dee da da daaaa…. memories…..

  51. 51 EggManLives

    [..YouTube..] Actually, interestingly enough, the Magypsies in Mother 3 are named after the 7 musical modes of Ionian, Dorian, Phyrgian, Lydian, Mixolidan, and Locrian. So you could almost say you collect the needles guarded by each type of mode, or melody, even though the music is the same for each one.

  52. 52 zyboser

    [..YouTube..] Thank you very much for the spoiler…Just Kidding

  53. 53 DarkLink9393

    [..YouTube..] SSBB victory music doesn’t sound like Eight Melodies from Mother 1.

  54. 54 1AndrewTheWolf

    [..YouTube..] Yea your right its the intro to mother 1.

  55. 55 DarkLink9393

    [..YouTube..] Bum, bum bum, bum, bum, bum, bum bum bum bum, bum bum bum bum bum bum bum, bum, bum, bum. Dun, da da dun, dun, da da dun, dun da da dun dun dun da dun dun dun. You’re right! It is the intro to Mother 1!

  56. 56 rptheory

    [..YouTube..] It’s Smiles and Tears

  57. 57 solidsnake777dm

    [..YouTube..] you know what made this game a 10 the free players guide that had smells and tastes well not tastes i think nintendo wont release this game on vurtual console because they cant give yall a players guide *cries*

  58. 58 NintendoLover64

    [..YouTube..] this makes me cry :,(

  59. 59 LKDynamite7

    [..YouTube..] I think they were Swords.

  60. 60 sonicpie3000

    [..YouTube..] Needles to be pulled actually.

  61. 61 NeotyKairyu

    [..YouTube..] I sort of heard this while playing against Giygas.

  62. 62 DarkLink9393

    [..YouTube..] EVERYONE! Stop rating me down NOW! I was wondering what Ness and Lucas’ victory music from SUPER SMASH BROS. BRAWL came from and it is, in fact, Mother 1’s intro! That comment had NOTHING to do with the music played in this video!

  63. 63 DarkLink9393

    [..YouTube..] If that’s even a reason, it’s the very last reason as to why they won’t put it on the virtual console

  64. 64 solidsnake777dm

    [..YouTube..] i guess thats not a reason but you know the games they are releasing week after week cant even compare to EB nintendo isnt releasing any true snes rpgs on the VC as you can see no chrono trigger only the release zelda which is not really an RPG but an action RPG

  65. 65 solidsnake777dm

    [..YouTube..] where is the 7th saga and secret of mana and the best of them earthbound!!!!!!nintendo has some kind of a nag for not releasing those good games we all actually want on the virtual console

  66. 66 Littlelink91

    [..YouTube..] yea u know what, im sick of all the noobs who all of a sudden look these games up, ask questions about them and say they have played the game, all because of smash brothers. It really ticks the hell out of me. Rate all the noobs down I say!

  67. 67 fulismilk

    [..YouTube..] Does it really matter? Let the newcomers enjoy this wonderful game. So what If they didn’t play it when it first came out, it doesn’t matter having a lot of fans for this game could lead to great things like its release on the VC or Mother 3 being released internationally.

  68. 68 Littlelink91

    [..YouTube..] IT does matter to me, cause they lie about them playing the game! Which is what ticks me off! People shouldnt just LIE about these things! You have to experience a game to learn its magic, not just look at it and be like OOOH pretty!

  69. 69 fulismilk

    [..YouTube..] Well it seems that you care a little too much about other people, you shouldn’t.

  70. 70 Littlelink91

    [..YouTube..] Im a crazed gamer, I cant help it.

  71. 71 fulismilk

    [..YouTube..] Well calling people noobs because they like the game isn’t cool but alright.

  72. 72 Littlelink91

    [..YouTube..] wt…How old are u!? -_-…nvm..wow…

  73. 73 fulismilk

    [..YouTube..] What? I’m sure I’m older than you but I think the real question is how old are YOU? Obviously not that old because you act like a child.

  74. 74 Littlelink91

    [..YouTube..] Wow your fucked up, im done talking to you. You just dont know when to quit talking.

  75. 75 fulismilk

    [..YouTube..] Thats cool, it always seems that way with kids like you.

  76. 76 MOUPIMOUPI

    [..YouTube..] Right, it plays before he goes EXTREMLY crazy (final part)

  77. 77 NeotyKairyu

    [..YouTube..] That’s a lot of Giygases.

  78. 78 90786jiop

    [..YouTube..] OMG I REMEMBER THOSE XD, those were kinda weird o__o, I think I remember there was a mystery scent i think, and if you got it you got an air freshener or something, I think it was pizza, can someone clarify that for me?

  79. 79 KHfanguy

    [..YouTube..] Holy shit Littlelink91Not all of us were old enough to know about this game. Luckily a cousin of mine had it and I played it, but everyone was a noob once.Plus this game wasn’t really popular when it first came out in america, so many people didn’t get it.

  80. 80 PenDSCelebi33

    [..YouTube..] Well… I live in the Uk so I think I have a f***ing right to know who this boy is who has been hidden from the uk… and is now a massive star.

  81. 81 DivineEx

    [..YouTube..] I was so obsessed with this song, I sat down at my keyboard for 2 and a half hours figuring this out. <3 EARTHBOUND 4 LYFE@@

  82. 82 Blueman15432

    [..YouTube..] *Commence this music when EarthBound is on the Virtual Console*

  83. 83 Blueman15432

    [..YouTube..] Y’know what? Your f***in right.In Japan he is a massive star. Then Nintendo decided to bring him to America (My country) where not too many people liked him at the time. Because not too many people bought EarthBound, it became a commercial failure, destroying all hope for a worldwide release.I just wish that Nintendo would GET THE F*** OVER IT and release EarthBound on the VC WORLDWIDE. And MOTHER 3 WORLDWIDE as well. Other Gamers don’t know what they’re missing!

  84. 84 tehProdigy

    [..YouTube..] Augh damnit, I tear up when I hear this. This is too much damn nostalgia. Great game, definitely a huge part of my childhood. The weird and surreal feel of the game combined with great memorable music and quirky endearing characters makes it one of the best games of all time.

  85. 85 sooperpuper

    [..YouTube..] I don’t get it, those aren’t the Eight Melodies.

  86. 86 sooperpuper

    [..YouTube..] Oooh wait, those are the Eight Melodies from the Your Sanctuary places; I was thinking of the song from Earthbound Zero.

  87. 87 KumaOso16

    [..YouTube..] Except played by a grand and emotional orchestra.

  88. 88 chazooma

    [..YouTube..] *sniff**sniff*I was born a few years too late, and I was never able to enjoy this game.I saw an older friend of mine play it once when I was only 11, but I never got to play it. The game was lost somewhere. And so I’ve been hoping for it on the virtual console, but of course, chances seem bleak.Will I ever get to play this game?

  89. 89 shujinco2

    [..YouTube..] Was this the same 8 melodies from Mother 1?

  90. 90 Blueman15432

    [..YouTube..] The eight melodies in MOTHER/Earthbound Zero are different then the ones in EarthBound.

  91. 91 Blueman15432

    [..YouTube..] No. MOTHER 1’s were different.

  92. 92 soragonesyco

    [..YouTube..] *sobs*I was born 11 years ago!WHY?!I want to play this game!

  93. 93 GOHAN12344

    [..YouTube..] Dont worry youll play it one day so will all the others Maybe someone kind will show us how to download a emulater I feel The same as you but the song just gives me the werid feeling thats making me so damn happy and proud joyful too

  94. 94 DrawingsOfNamine

    [..YouTube..] i just notice ness in starman xDi lvoe this song!

  95. 95 SuperMegaUltraMovies

    [..YouTube..] well look around for it… or you could take the risk of getting it on the computer.. .all you need is and SNES emulator and then just download the earthbound ROM

  96. 96 nick747474

    [..YouTube..] Emulators are dangerous. I’ve played it multiple times on an emulator and everytime I can’t get passed Happy Happy Village because the save doesn’t work. Wait for the VC. It may not be next week, or the week after, but it will be eventually.

  97. 97 shadowraith10

    [..YouTube..] if this comes out for virtual console i wont be able to play it until i get a credit card and wii points…. they shouldve made it so you get wii points from wiisports…. am i right people?!

  98. 98 heavyDDR

    [..YouTube..] Probably one of the saddest moments in video game history was when Ness saw himself as a baby.

  99. 99 CorruptedEchoes

    [..YouTube..] I know it’s wrong but if your desperate to play this game, it’s at coolrom[dot]com under ROMS. Delete when your done? Get ONE SNES emulator to play it.

  100. 100 kjshadows131

    [..YouTube..] Earthbound rules!

  101. 101 Winfield92

    [..YouTube..] what’s the name of the song that plays when you defeat the sanctuary guardian and are completely healed after touching the sanctuary?

  102. 102 silverfalcon7

    [..YouTube..] Some people wouldn’t have Wii sports(damaged disc, used system bought from a game store, etc.). And people at Nintendo got to make a living somehow, pal.

  103. 103 silverfalcon7

    [..YouTube..] I just noticed Ness in the Starman’s eye shield’s reflection XD!I love this song!Fix’d!

  104. 104 seigaihamanaphy464

    [..YouTube..] “Hey, put that baseball hat over there on him.”"Haha! It’s much to big, but it looks so good on him.”"Oh? That’s odd. That bottle just moved, he didn’t touch it at all…”

  105. 105 RKsaygoes

    [..YouTube..] Well, they could maybe make it so you could earn minimal points for selected things, but nothing to big. (Like maybe each game contains about 250 wii points for doing everything needed to get them all, and only some games are in there.

  106. 106 Legalus240

    [..YouTube..] I love how the games starts out funny, and a “Play it after a long day at work” kind of game, but as you get farther, it becomes more serious. I also love how you think of Pokey as a nonimportant charecter at first, but is part of the final boss battle later in the game.

  107. 107 TailstheFox121

    [..YouTube..] MOTHER Fans listen:Get a phone and dial this number:1-800-255-3700Listen to the message and hit zero.This will hook you up with a Nintendo of america rep. There you can request earthbound and mother! But be nice in your call! ;)

  108. 108 zalphizzy

    [..YouTube..] spoiler ‘lert =x

  109. 109 stenhagen98

    [..YouTube..] mother : 8 melodiesmother 2: 8 melodies together: 16 melodiesmother 3: hmm can’t you say that “theme of love” is the 8 melodies for that game

  110. 110 WiiFreedom

    [..YouTube..] …For the Virtual Console?

  111. 111 cjn1414118

    [..YouTube..] In MOTHER 3 it has all the 16 melodies.

  112. 112 stenhagen98

    [..YouTube..] I know but I think that Theme of Love is like the 8 melodies for Mother 3

  113. 113 EpicPanda

    [..YouTube..] I always find myself singing this tune when I’m alone sometimes. Weird, huh?

  114. 114 pokemonlulz

    [..YouTube..] omg, i do too…

  115. 115 pkstarstormer

    [..YouTube..] im not trying to be mean or anything but the song is actualy called smiles and tears.Great song though

  116. 116 cheese10136

    [..YouTube..] i wonder if there is any lyrics to this great, peacefully song.

  117. 117 shadowslider11

    [..YouTube..] Probably not. Hey here’s an idea! Make your own lyrics and make a video!!! That’ll be hilarious!

  118. 118 kirbykrew

    [..YouTube..] I am happy from hearing this.

  119. 119 DKHellsing

    [..YouTube..] i agree.

  120. 120 greenpuppet43

    [..YouTube..] The Mother 1 magic melody had lyrics.

  121. 121 oofoe

    [..YouTube..] It’s the perfect alone humming song. :D

  122. 122 QBallVideos

    [..YouTube..] Nope. “Smiles and Tears” is a more developed version of this song. They have the same melody/8 melodies.

  123. 123 Avalolz

    [..YouTube..] there are lyrics, but they’re in japanese apart from the final line, “I miss you”

  124. 124 andymadownzdeadly

    [..YouTube..] this song always brings a tear to my eyes

  125. 125 shadowslider11

    [..YouTube..] Ooooooooh. 0.o

  126. 126 Nye52

    [..YouTube..] this one has lyrics also trust me

  127. 127 supermario1232

    [..YouTube..] this sounds sad and happy at the same time

  128. 128 azureardee

    [..YouTube..] me three. And I played this game 10 years ago. The melody stuck to my head. And with the advent of youtube, had the opportunity to search it again. Nostalgic, happy, and sad…

  129. 129 pokemonlulz

    [..YouTube..] Ah, the memories of my past 10 1/2 years of life. Like getting my red hat. Or my mum dying.*sigh*

  130. 130 nerd2max

    [..YouTube..] Take a melody, simple as can be.Give it some words and sweet harmonyRaise your voices and sing a melody of love

  131. 131 cjn1414118

    [..YouTube..] I guess that would make sense.

  132. 132 heavyDDR

    [..YouTube..] Hi, it is me, how are you?I hope you’re good, hope you’re great, hope you’re true.I know, it’s tough, but, please… pull on through.And so. You know. I love you.

  133. 133 zedrein18

    [..YouTube..] It’s unreal how good the music in these games is.

  134. 134 h0tb0y6996

    [..YouTube..] god, this brings back the memories of good ol Earthbound and finally, FINALLY getting the gutsy bat from that Kraken!! Ya feel me!!! that’s when i finally stopped playing. big, big, big, fan.

  135. 135 Citrangish

    [..YouTube..] Sob.

    [..YouTube..] Wow…so sweet…

  137. 137 Shirotokama

    [..YouTube..] This song brings tears to my eyes, its so touching.

  138. 138 want2havebrains

    [..YouTube..] This is something i have never been able to figure out;In the customization box of every video to change the screens color or size it says to paste the embed code;paste it where?can someone help me?

  139. 139 want2havebrains

    [..YouTube..] wrong eight melodies ur thinkin of the first “Mother”(i prefer to call the series Mother)

  140. 140 want2havebrains

    [..YouTube..] I never saw my real father. and got a blue baseball cap.but i remember playing this game.oh the memories i wish i could go back to.

  141. 141 pokemonlulz

  147. 147 PKNess12345

    [..YouTube..] These are my words to it…When you first looked at meSmiles and TearsMy heart rememberedA melodyYou’ve been with me, all alongThis song is our melody

  148. 148 rithrenx

    [..YouTube..] I aswell have one of those backpacks.This game reminds me of carefree times back when I was about 7 or 8. The music is so joyful and sad at the same time. I just remember me and my bestfriend running home to play this game afterschool.mind you,oh god this was back in 1994. I can’t help but cry when i hear this song though.. Even though my bestfriend has now passed away. This song always reminds me of him. No matter how different we all seem now We all remember key moments of our childhood…

  149. 149 stringball123

    [..YouTube..] how traumatizing

  150. 150 DavyMacaroni

  156. 156 Kanaru92

    [..YouTube..] This song is so kickass.

  157. 157 locke103

    [..YouTube..] they were places of power, or so i’ve been lead to believe anyway.after ness defeats his nightmare, he absorbs magicant. and magicant, of course, was manifested from the power of the eight melodies gained from the sanctuaries.

  158. 158 locke103

    [..YouTube..] the fact that you admit that shows maturity and wisdom. age is only a relative thing. i can think of many whom surpass me, yet act worse than a typical child would.

  159. 159 crazyfoosa2

    [..YouTube..] Never played this as a kid. SO WHY DO I FEEL NOSTALGIC

  160. 160 Kanaru92

    [..YouTube..] I really love this song.

  161. 161 ikeblike

    [..YouTube..] “we miss yah”

  162. 162 blueseed11

    [..YouTube..] i want to play the other mothers not just earthbound ! make it in English!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  163. 163 MonoTwai

    [..YouTube..] To PKNess12345 and Crash22203:The nice thing is, the lyrics are somewhat like that XD The “You’ve been with me, all along” part. I think it went something like…Some things…Were sad…enough…To make…tears come out.But you..were always by my side. XD

  164. 164 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] Ah yes… Another classic from Earthbound… It’s like a memory relived… Especially when it’s played with that music box type of feeling… Those types of instruments always bring a form of nostalgia upon you… I don’t know why…

  165. 165 Aquarys

    [..YouTube..] Same with me D:

  166. 166 Karzahnii

    [..YouTube..] God, I love this game, and the soundtrack.

  167. 167 Jestir66

    [..YouTube..] i love this game. its ironic i got out my old system and started playing this the other day (along with others )

  168. 168 96Nathan96

    [..YouTube..] i’m excited to get this on Ebay I hope I really get it

  169. 169 ALttP

    [..YouTube..] Because this is practically the music that kids listen to, simple and innocent.

  170. 170 zeonthedevilking

    [..YouTube..] when u buying it ?

  171. 171 96Nathan96

    [..YouTube..] I gave the guy the money but my mom told him that were moving and to ship it to our new house:D

  172. 172 h0tb0y6996

    [..YouTube..] one of the best games ever made. love it.

  173. 173 Ifeedonjapanesehobos

    [..YouTube..] Search for the translated patches. You can download them and play them on an emulator. They’re both great games, Mother 3 especially.

  174. 174 sonyvssnes

    [..YouTube..] ness battle results ssb

  175. 175 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] It’s most likely due to what I like to call, the “music box affect.” Usually, (not all the time) when someone uses a music box instrument for a song (Not within a pop song, but within an instrumental song and if that instrument is most prominent during the song) it gives you that feeling of remembrance.

  176. 176 zedrein18

    [..YouTube..] There will never be another game like EarthBound.

  177. 177 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] Dragon Quest.

  178. 178 zedrein18

    [..YouTube..] The gameplay is similar, yes. But the overall themes, animations, and music are vastly different.

  179. 179 mastersmasher2021

    [..YouTube..] I must have 7 versions of this song saved to my profile.

  180. 180 ReviewerGuy623

    [..YouTube..] I’m not sure why but I feel an emptiness in my heart whenever I listen to this medley. I think it’s because it reminds me of all the innocence and simplicity I cherished as a child, and now I can only look back and yearn for fond memories of once then.

  181. 181 Crash22203

    [..YouTube..] Hmm…I should try making lyrics for this song =PBut if only I knew Japanese.I heard this songt with vocals, but it was in Japanese, =P

  182. 182 OnikakushiXRENA

    [..YouTube..] I really cried when I listened to this.

  183. 183 MKchampion726

    [..YouTube..] how would that go =P

  184. 184 TheGreatKNess

    [..YouTube..] That isn’t Ness. It’s Pokey, Ness’ rival in the game… though the Starman is inaccurate from what I can gather. They were of their own intelligence. Pokey piloted a separate machine.

  185. 185 EEVEEdude11

    [..YouTube..] …I really want to cry…

  186. 186 ubahquiet

    [..YouTube..] I nearly did…

  187. 187 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] Perhaps, however, there were other RPGs that had humor in them that were actually good. No offense, but the humor in the game is literally for 4 year olds and alot of the people who like this game as much as they do because of Earthbound. This probably happened to other games as well, but since Fire Emblem and Earthbound weren’t known very well, it impacted those games the most. Fire Emblem for SNES sucks, Earthbound for SNES is a great game. Both are still getting better ratings though “-_-

  188. 188 zedrein18

    [..YouTube..] I just cast PSI Freeze on your ass.

  189. 189 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] ? I didn’t offend you did I?

  190. 190 zedrein18

    [..YouTube..] Disrespecting EarthBound is just like pissin’ in my coffee, man.

  191. 191 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] I’m not dissing Earthbound. I love Earthbound. I dislike the Earthbound fanbase. There is a complete difference. It’s like saying “I hate Pepporoni” and that same person says “I love pizza” They’re two different things, it’s just one of those thing is somewhat relevant to pizza, see?

  192. 192 HeroDelTiempo

    [..YouTube..] WHIRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRjeez that’s annoying

  193. 193 ChibiRobo13

    [..YouTube..] I HATE PEPPERONI.And I love pizza.Yuu can eat pizza without pepperoni. >_>

  194. 194 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] XD That wasn’t the point… What I’m trying to say is this, they may COMMONLY compliment each other, but they are two separate items, basically in a concept, I love Pizza but I hate pepperoni, Pizza being Earthbound and Pepperoni being it’s fanbase. See? By the way, I don’t really actually HATE pepperoni.

  195. 195 sp0nge1337

    [..YouTube..] Let me put this in simple terms for you… You like the game just not the people who play it/ Am i right?

  196. 196 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] Mostly, that is correct. Don’t get me wrong, I still do like some people who do like Earthbound, but I can tell by talking with them enough that they like it for the right reason and not mostly because of Super Smash Bros. see? I’m not trying to make anyone mad or anything, I just want to discuss this and I wish for those who haven’t gotten the chance to play it, because people overrate the game, the price raised and new fans won’t get to play it because of that, that and other reasons as well.

  197. 197 TheEnd1190

    [..YouTube..] your like on every earthbound video :P

  198. 198 SonicOnTheRocks

    [..YouTube..] “There will never be another game like EarthBound.”"Dragon Quest.”No.

  199. 199 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] A place to put your money? A healer/priest? First person view fighting? Trying to find certain destinations that are like Sanctuary Points (Freeing animal spirits, whatever)? Humor? Hm… That doesn’t sound anything like Earthbound…

  200. 200 kittenkilla123

    [..YouTube..] This game was kick ass! Anyone get the strategy guide when it came out with the smelly stickers! haha they were awesome!

  201. 201 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] I heard those stickers actually smelled bad and that people hated them.

  202. 202 AquaBolt94

    [..YouTube..] This is so beautifly nostalgic. This game really taught me many life lessons about the impotance of friendship and love and I wish I had it on my Wii…

  203. 203 ubahquiet

    [..YouTube..] Uh, Dragon Quest is set in a fantasy world where people fight with swords and kill monsters and stuff.Earthbound is set in a land that is a parody of American society, where you walk around as a ten year old kid fighting animals like crows, dogs, snakes, as well as hippies and weird old men and weird women, amongst other things, with your baseball bat.I’m not seeing the similarities here.

  204. 204 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] Take everything about Dragon Quest, turn it into a futuristic World with aliens, and change the swords to bats, the staffs to a frying pan, and so on, and you got Earthbound, Yaaay…

  205. 205 ubahquiet

    [..YouTube..] Still not seeing it, man. I guess it’s just me…

  206. 206 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] Yeah D: But Shigesato Itoi even said that the gameplay is highly based on Dragon Quest. I mean, just because it’s based off of something, doesn’t mean it’s any less of a good game. See?

  207. 207 ubahquiet

    [..YouTube..] I wasn’t saying it’s any less of a good game for being based off something (hell one of my favourite games, Final Fantasy 1, is heavily based off of Dungeons And Dragons). But yeah, I see.

  208. 208 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] Sorry, I was stating you were, I just stated what I had said because generally, people do look at it as something frowned upon if something is taken from another game

  209. 209 ubahquiet

    [..YouTube..] They do, aye…When Great Giana Sisters was announced for release on DS, everyone began raging on this forum I go to over how Nintendo should sue because it’s a platformer with a lot of similarities to Super Mario Brothers…except they’re publishing it.Also same thing happened with another DS game, Magical Folk from Konami, in regards to Animal Crossing…even though Konami’s game is better IMO. It’s sad.

  210. 210 AmeyaGairden

    [..YouTube..] Most of them smelled horrible like master belch LOL but I did save the banana one from the monkey!! It still smells after YEARS, those things were crazy

  211. 211 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] Yeah… by the way, I didn’t mean to say “I was stating you were” I meant to say “I wasn’t stating you were” XD And also@AmeyaGairdenThat is pretty sick, the game was released back so many years ago… Wonder why it is, do ALL smell stickers do that?

  212. 212 unclesamxlr

    [..YouTube..] This melody stuck with me after I beat Earthbound

  213. 213 NarutoPokemonMirmo

    [..YouTube..] can anyone send me a download link of the song? i tried to search in google but i can’t find any

  214. 214 Nintendofanboy01

    [..YouTube..] Ah, are you om the ONM forums?

  215. 215 ubahquiet

    [..YouTube..] Har har, yes I am. And it is those forums I am referring to…Seriously, the amount of people who whined about those two games is insane.

  216. 216 Nintendofanboy01

    [..YouTube..] Ok what’s your name on it? I’ll tell you mine after

  217. 217 ubahquiet

    [..YouTube..] Same as the one here, I go by Ubahquiet.

  218. 218 NarutoPokemonMirmo

    [..YouTube..] also if someone does send me a download link please don’t send me torrents i need the mp3 file

  219. 219 GeneralUile

    [..YouTube..] SNES Fire Emblem suck? Which one you played, fellow youtube viewer?

  220. 220 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] I’ve played 3 SNES Fire Emblems. All of them weren’t really any good. Well… I think I might be giving 1 an unfair chance. Forgot which, but after playing 2 of em for quite a bit of time, it looked very similar and I played it for a few and left it after a bit of playing. I forgot what the third one was, but ugh… Anyhow, I believe Bahamut Lagoon is a better game honest. Don’t know why though.

  221. 221 GeneralUile

    [..YouTube..] You probably didn’t played it right then.Are you comparing Bahamut Lagoon to Fire Emblem and/or Earthbound? How’s that.

  222. 222 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] ? o.o XD In a way yes… But in a way no “^^ Well, what I mean is this. Earthbound is a great game, but because of Super Smash Bros. it became very very overrated. The SNES Fire Emblem sucks, however, after Melee came out, it’s ratings continue to go up in many places. I forgot whether it was Bahamut Lagoon that I played which was similar to Fire Emblem but not really alike… It could have been another game. But anyhow, the ratings have increased immensely for it.

  223. 223 Okami4560

    [..YouTube..] How is it over rated? It’s not like Final Fantasy VII’s over rated-ness… It had a really great story that anyone could enjoy, epic gameplay and an awesome feeling whenever you played. It deserves it’s fanbase, and really, I think it’s a bit underrated…

  224. 224 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] The gameplay is hardly epic. What pray tell, is different about the gameplay? You do the same thing in other RPGs. “Attack” use “PSI” use “Items” and so on and so forth. Talk to people and such. The gameplay was literally stolen from Dragon Quest as well. Anyhow, Earthbound has become overrated because Super Smash Bros. made it more popular than it should have been. Have you examined the fanbase? *Gives you his glasses* Maybe you need these. Anyhow, try to examine it without bias.

  225. 225 Okami4560

    [..YouTube..] It was way more fast-pace than Dragon Quest, and I do agree, as most RPs it had the attack and “ability” commands, but then again, that’s like trashing an arcade game for having a “health bar” function. Super Smash Bros. merely told people of it, it had no effect on people actually liking it. People like it for being a good game, that is all.

  226. 226 GeneralUile

    [..YouTube..] The overall feeling of Earthbound is different. I mean, our heroes are little kids! It’s set on a modern time, and it can be taken seriously even with the intentional cheesyness, that’s why Earthbound is awesome.

  227. 227 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] You do make some good points and I do agree that Earthbound is an awesome game, still, don’t you feel as if some people like something just because it’s in Earthbound? The style of the game is indeed unique, however, people have to locate every small detail in order to make it better. Example: The battle system is a million times better than any other RPG because of it’s scrolling health bar. So, one thing that makes the game different makes it the best?

  228. 228 GeneralUile

    [..YouTube..] I never saw anyone saying it’s an awesome game just by it’s scrolling health bars. Unique layout, yes, but still, it’s part of the overall game.

  229. 229 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] I have XD I mention the battle system of Earthbound and how it’s very similar to the gameplay of Dragon Quest and people pull out the “Health Bar” defense. “You can heal your friends before the bar reaches 0! That makes the game a million times better!” For some odd reason, 1 detail of a game makes everything better apparently XD But still, that’s just my experience.

  230. 230 GeneralUile

    [..YouTube..] And don’t you think that the scrolling bar was a good thing? You could heal them on a lethal attack, or save them by killing the enemy before the HP reaches to 0. It saves your cash, and gives the character that, in other rpgs would be dead, exp.

  231. 231 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] It’s not that I don’t think it’s a good thing, it’s just that it’s the only thing that people pull out as their defense for making the game a million times better. It’s a good idea, but the exaggerations…

  232. 232 GeneralUile

    [..YouTube..] It must be the only thing you saw them putting on defense, though. They have no need to, though, only one playthrough is enough to understand why.

  233. 233 svett89

    [..YouTube..] Earthbound (or Mother 2, whatever you want to call it) is the only game that has ever made me so scared that I couldn’t finish it. I had to turn the game off while fighting Giygas because the battle freaked me out so much. For me that prooves that the game is simply unique and extremely engaging. (:

  234. 234 joztron

    [..YouTube..] when I was little, I was deathly afraid of the Zombies in Threed. =P

  235. 235 masterloveless

    [..YouTube..] …Giygas..is scary…*shivers*

  236. 236 zblasterz

    [..YouTube..] This song always reminded me how much of a good person Ness is. I mean, he volunteers to save the world, he had such strong feelings for Buzz Buzz he gave him a grave IN HIS MIND and risks being a robot for the rest of his life to save the world.

  237. 237 JordinaryDude

    [..YouTube..] A+ Comment dude, a fitting description of one of the best vg characters.

  238. 238 yadig513

    [..YouTube..] im in the middle of replaying this game, i found the cartrige!! Boing!

  239. 239 JettDX

    [..YouTube..] I love this song, it has never failed to comfort me…

  240. 240 Yoshinom2u

    [..YouTube..] If you think about it, Ness has been in the worst situation possible, fighting the embodiment of evil in a dimension in the past knowing he may never come back, than any other video game character thus far. Giygas is, presumably, the hardest thing you can come by in a game.

  241. 241 Spectacular66

    [..YouTube..] That was the part of the game I found most shocking… and creepy… Transferring your soul into a mechanical body? Like damn that’s insane… and probably never returning. Ever.

  242. 242 shade6754

    [..YouTube..] comfort this makes me cry >.>

  243. 243 takanuva114

    [..YouTube..] HOLY SHIT! FREE PLAYERS GUIDE!! XD

  244. 244 takanuva114

    [..YouTube..] Actually Ness’ brain was put in a robot… WITH A DRILL! XD

  245. 245 Spectacular66

    [..YouTube..] That’s even creepier… haha

  246. 246 takanuva114

    [..YouTube..] @ yadig513Lucky…

  247. 247 takanuva114

    [..YouTube..] Lol. Not as creepy as Giygas though.

  248. 248 Spectacular66

    [..YouTube..] Ehhh true that. Craziest boss battle I have ever fought

  249. 249 chosentonessournotes

    [..YouTube..] This game’s cult following far predates Super Smash Bros, even though the game did introduce a new generation to one of my all time most beloved game characters.

  250. 250 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] The cult has grown in a MUCH larger size than before, especially after Super Smash Bros. It’s known in countries that didn’t even have the game. Do you know what happened to this game? Let’s take Advent Children as an example… People saw Advent Children… People then jerked off to it saying “OMG! This is my favorite game now!” without even playing FF7… Super Smash Bros. had a similar impact to Earthbound

  251. 251 sonyvssnes

    [..YouTube..] then put in a vagina XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

  252. 252 chosentonessournotes

    [..YouTube..] Who gives a fuck? Your justification of the whole spark of new fans is completely irrelevent. For one thing, Advent Children was a MOVIE, and a horrible one to boot. So if people became fans of FF7 after watching that atrocity, then they’re fucking idiots. And how do you know who’s a pre or post SSB fan? And why does it matter? What happened to this game, exactly? I played through it recently and it’s just like it was when I was younger. I see no changes because of a new fanbase.Douchebag.

  253. 253 chosentonessournotes

    [..YouTube..] Also, I know you’re not talking about changes to the game itself, but if you never even were introduced to the new fanbase, you’d never know any different. You’re the one pointing out how different things are, and to be honest, I don’t see how this outburst of new fans is such a terrible thing. For those just becoming fans of the franchise, don’t let morons like siberianhusky89 get you down. He’s talking about semantics like it completely affects the gameplay…

  254. 254 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] Please reframe from insulting me. I have not insulted anyone directly, so it wouldn’t make it any nicer if you did. Also, you are stating that it’s okay that most of the Mother fanbase is a lie by defending people liking the game for that reason. Anyhow, I never said the game was changed, I still love Earthbound, I just hate the fanbase, but I never said “You’re a fucking loser/douchebag, etc… to anybody, you really don’t make a good point at all. I have accepted when someone has said

  255. 255 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] Something and convinced me of things in a logical manner, but I’m sorry, you really don’t make a good point. If you look around for past posts, you will SEE that I’ve agreed to what some others said that were opposition to what I’ve said, I give an open ear, but 1, make a good point and 2, don’t insult me. Thanks.

  256. 256 BloodyGrovyle

    [..YouTube..] @Spectacular66It’s not crazy, it’s just really really f**ked up.

  257. 257 Spectacular66

    [..YouTube..] Pretty much

  258. 258 becongeneral

    [..YouTube..] I want to go back to those days where we had a Forrest as a back yard and there was this really big tree me and my best friend would always sit under. we buried her cat there. heh earthbound definitely has a way of hitting you in the right spots. if only for a day we could all go back to the first time we heard this song, heh if only.

  259. 259 Ganolink

    [..YouTube..] 2 wordsultimate chimera

  260. 260 Ganolink

    [..YouTube..] mother 3

  261. 261 zedrein18

    [..YouTube..] MOTHER 3 what? I just checked on the comment I wrote over a month ago and I didn’t ask anything about MOTHER 3.

  262. 262 chosentonessournotes

    [..YouTube..] I love this Eight Melodies wayyy more than Eight Melodies from Mother 1.

  263. 263 GeminiSpies

    [..YouTube..] Wow. You’ve commented multiple times in such a pathetic way. You failed right there, buddy.And please don’t pass me off as some fangirl or someone who only likes Earthbound because of SSBB. I’ve been an EB fan since i was 12, and i’m not obsessed to the point that i’ll defend it. I’m just a casual fan.

  264. 264 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] I won’t state that you’re a fanboy or fangirl or even attack you, however, I will defend my case. You state I’ve done so in “such a pathetic way” however, I’ve succeeded in getting through to some people, so if it’s so pathetic, why would there be people who listen to what I have to say? You commented me making no good points and only to insult me. I’ve asked kindly for people to insult me and you call it pathetic to be kind and ask for such? If so, I will remain pathetic no matter what you

  265. 265 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] or anyone else here thinks…

  266. 266 GeminiSpies

    [..YouTube..] Oh well. I guess being level headed about the whole thing isn’t gonna work. :/

  267. 267 Airking4321

    [..YouTube..] WRONG GAME

  268. 268 guatedude13

    [..YouTube..] Alot of the eartbound music is rich in emotion and just tugs at your heart. it’s impossible to play this game and say you didn’t like it

  269. 269 bobaneko

    [..YouTube..] you are right dude i meen i just play that game and wen im bored i just feel to play it agian evendo i past it

  270. 270 TrigonySL

    [..YouTube..] Are you going to study law? lol

  271. 271 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] How do you associate what I say with law?

  272. 272 Airking4321

    [..YouTube..] im talking to gano link, he said “ultimate chimera”

  273. 273 POTATOESLOL

    [..YouTube..] I totally agree.

  274. 274 CelingKat

    [..YouTube..] *groan* GanoLink. The Ultimate Chimera is from Mother 3. Not Mother 1 or Mother 2 (Or as people call for some reason I can’t fathom, Earthbound. I prefer Mother 2 than Earthbound)

  275. 275 Airking4321

    [..YouTube..] I can play this now,im happy.:D

  276. 276 EricRichardsonn

    [..YouTube..] i just did the same thing

  277. 277 FatMan123123

    [..YouTube..] maybe because it was released to the U.S as earthbound and people hold fond memories of earthbound and not mother 2 howa bout that?

  278. 278 TinaWund

    [..YouTube..] How can you not “fathom” why people call it Earthbound? It was released that way. That is like saying you can’t fathom why people call Mario 2 Mario 2 insted of Doki Doki Panic.

  279. 279 Airking4321

    [..YouTube..] UR LIKE A LAWYERYOU YELL OBJECTION TO ALL OF THE MOTHER FANS WHO ONLY PLAYED SSBB.YOU POINT OUT THEIR CONTRADICTIONS.Indeed, You would be a great lawyer, or a politician.

  280. 280 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] Not quite, I don’t do it to all the Mother fans who’ve played SSBB. I’m just stating something, besides, I wouldn’t make a good Lawyer or Politician, I’m not a good liar.

  281. 281 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] The reason Doki Doki Panic 2 is called Super Mario 2 (USA) is because the Japanese thought the real Super Mario Bros. 2 would be too hard for Americans. So, they decided to make Doki Doki Panic 2, Super Mario USA.The End : D XD

  282. 282 Airking4321

    [..YouTube..] Well it does get annoying when you see people who play SSBB and they see ness, and they just say “OH NESS IS SO BADASS, SO THEN THAT WHATCHAMACALLIT-BOUND GAME MUST BE BADASS TOO.” same with mother 3. and they comment on the giygas video and start saying these things like “GIYGAS IS SO BADASS I LUV HIM” and then they say “so how did ness get trapped in that bubble?” XP i’ll send a message to you later about why i’m not like them. oh yeah, u could be like that liar liar lawyer too…

  283. 283 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] When I was young, my uncle owned a video store and I rented a lot of games over and over again. Earthbound was popular, so he didn’t mind me renting it often and so I did… *Sigh* I miss that damned store and wish I would have grabbed both Kirby Superstar and Earthbound back then when he was selling em (Sometimes I would get free games when the old ones became old)

  284. 284 Airking4321

    [..YouTube..] oh you lucky, lucky boy…i was still developing a mind back then…

  285. 285 Cappy7359

    [..YouTube..] they changed rockman to megaman because they thought it wouldnt sell in america, even tho rockman sounds more badass to me at least :)

  286. 286 TinaWund

    [..YouTube..] True, it does. It isn’t that I agree or disagree with game name changes, I just can’t stand people (usually the wapanese) who bitch and moan because people call it Earthbound instead of Mother 2. These are the same people who throw a tantrum if you don’t pronounce some obscure anime/character name “properly”.

  287. 287 greyreynyn

    [..YouTube..] i remember that first boss with the big footprint.. and the little butterfly you’d get right before the fight. =] man if only my snes worked.. im lookin at the ebound cartridge right now.. :(

  288. 288 greyreynyn

    [..YouTube..] not to provoke unnecessary hostilities but i see quote “You’re a fucking loser” in one of your posts. Which would seem to say that you have insulted someone directly. This seems counter intuitive to your previous claim, “I have not insulted anyone directly,” and so I thought I’d point it out. :) Tata

  289. 289 greyreynyn

    [..YouTube..] he really took the bullet for planet earth there.. i’d be like shit screw that..on the other hand… I’D BE INVINCIBLE!

  290. 290 greyreynyn

    [..YouTube..] you have a +64 rating for this comment. your my hero

  291. 291 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] Was it this one person who was trying to state that I was suffering from disabilities? If so, he’s a different story because he did something very disrespectful, of course, it doesn’t make it right that I did it, however, he was just a total douchebag who wasn’t even willing to listen and just threw insults at me and said something that was truly truly uncalled for.

  292. 292 soulsurvivor7

    [..YouTube..] ever think about getting an emulator?

  293. 293 zedrein18

    [..YouTube..] Goddamn, the music in these are games is just unrealistically good.

  294. 294 ToonLink2025

    [..YouTube..] Where can I find a download for this song?

  295. 295 ZeroSuitSamus2008

    [..YouTube..] the mother 1 eight melodies is better sing a melody…give it some words and sweet harmony…all day long now sing a song now

  296. 296 yunaandcloud

    [..YouTube..] Love this… to tell the truth when I listen to this it really does relax me, like if it’s a real melody =]

  297. 297 FirionDemon2

    [..YouTube..] The difference between many Western video games and Japanese video games is the Japanese designers really pour their heart and souls into the game. They make it their “baby.”

  298. 298 Elaunikum

    [..YouTube..] your so damn right man…i think japanese games are more… personal than western games.

  299. 299 Maxz4000

    [..YouTube..] I have a feeling that mental imprinting could be the blame.

  300. 300 Maxz4000

    [..YouTube..] who are you talking too?

  301. 301 POTATOESLOL

    [..YouTube..] 1st part = WIN2nd part = WIN3rd part = WINSo basically, this is win.

  302. 302 Lucario1423

    [..YouTube..] i maneged to edit part of onnett’s music for this one(in one spot like if its a relaxing place!)

  303. 303 MarioWars

    [..YouTube..] more win pokey means business?

  304. 304 retrogamingrules

    [..YouTube..] Yeah, exactly!!! When I see a game and it is Japanese I usally think: Looks cool. And with western games I often think: I dunno…

  305. 305 Diamondkid777

    [..YouTube..] it would be cool if this song made a cameo in a legend of zelda game because it sounds like something u would play on the orcarina

  306. 306 Aaronthereal1

    [..YouTube..] Calming

  307. 307 sonutouchiha91

    [..YouTube..] ebay

  308. 308 smilyfacekilla

    [..YouTube..] Yeah, western games (especially RPG’s) tend to have no soul. Just a hollow husk of a game. :(

  309. 309 SecretTacoNinja

    [..YouTube..] Funny you should say that actually…I’ve been playing this song on my ocarina ever since I first heard it in Earthbound. :DIt works very well.

  310. 310 Wolvinof

    [..YouTube..] Er, I’m not being fussy or anything, but this song isn’t called Eight Melodies, it’s Smiles And Tears. :/Then again, it IS called Earthbound’s version of Eight Melodies, so never mind. ;)

  311. 311 therealmetroidmaniac

    [..YouTube..] How DARE people rate that down!

  312. 312 chosentonessournotes

    [..YouTube..] Negative. Smiles and Tears is a completely different theme.

  313. 313 Wolvinof

    [..YouTube..] chosentonessournotes, I haven’t even TOUCHED the game, and probably never will, and even I can tell you for a start, that THIS is Smiles and Tears. If you still want to deny it, look for ‘earthbound smiles and tears’ on Youtube and see for yourself.

  314. 314 chosentonessournotes

    [..YouTube..] Good for you duder. Again, I’ll say it, I’ve been playing Earthbound since I was fucking 8 years old, and I’m 22 now. Smiles And Tears is the end credits song, which INCLUDES the Eight Melodies tune. Don’t mess with a Starman, dude. I know more about this game than you ever could.

  315. 315 Wolvinof

    [..YouTube..] So I’m half right about it, then. ;)No need to swear, though! And the only reason YOU’D know more about Earthbound is because your damn country was the only one outside of Japan to get it! :(

  316. 316 chosentonessournotes

    [..YouTube..] My apologies. You can still get in on it, you know! See what all the Buzz (Buzz =]) is all about!

  317. 317 PatrickLafreniere

    [..YouTube..] such a sick tune, I learned it on the flute. good times, good times

  318. 318 smb40

    [..YouTube..] This is a loveley break when your lifes at risk trying to deafeat Giygas :)

  319. 319 Lucario1423

    [..YouTube..] Wrong iv’e heard smiles and tears and they sound NOTHING like eatchother

  320. 320 Wolvinof

    [..YouTube..] Sorry, which one of my comments are you replying to? I always get confused about that… :/

  321. 321 Andrewxx20

    [..YouTube..] i love you… T_T R.I.P Buzz Buzz!!

  322. 322 Greciler

    [..YouTube..] You do know this has lyrics, right?

  323. 323 Wolvinof

    [..YouTube..] Yes, I do.

  324. 324 Greciler

    [..YouTube..] Then you should be able to tell the difference between this and the other song.

  325. 325 Wolvinof

    [..YouTube..] You mean the Eight Melodies? Yes, I can clearly hear the difference, thank you very much! God, all I said was that Smiles and Tears is sometimes considered Earthbound’s version of the Melodies, but now everyone’s b*tching at me about… well, I don’t really know WHAT they’re on about! :(

  326. 326 Wolvinof

    [..YouTube..] You mean the Eight Melodies? Yes, I can clearly hear the difference, thank you very much! Seriously, all I said was that Smiles and Tears is sometimes considered Earthbound’s version of the Melodies, but now everyone’s b*tching at me about… well, I don’t really know WHAT they’re on about! :(

  327. 327 Thenumber1yoshi

    [..YouTube..] Wait a sec.. never mind what i said on My last video comment this is it, but why is it called Eight melodeis and not a Smiles and Tears with a different title as to not confuse others with Mother 1’s version?

  328. 328 Thenumber1yoshi

    [..YouTube..] Theres also the sound stone version of this, do you have that one? I enjoy singing along to that as its the only full line I can remember from the fan’s translation of the song from the Japanese lyrics localized by fans.

  329. 329 gallantmon8

    [..YouTube..] I’m Casual Champion of this on Audiosurf :D PM me if you want to try and contest me for that title…………

  330. 330 NeoSaturos123

    [..YouTube..] You can also find it on emuparadise and many other sites.

  331. 331 yunaandcloud

    [..YouTube..] Did anyone else hate how much they changed the Eight Melodies original in Super Smash Bros Brawl?!!Please tell me that they did cuz people gave me like -10 comments when I said that Lmfao:]

  332. 332 halsbrad

    [..YouTube..] The “eight melodies” in SSBB was a mix from the original Mother, the predecessor to Earthbound. Thus the differing melodies.

  333. 333 ArtsyV

    [..YouTube..] When I heard the SSBB remix, at first I didn’t like it, but then I started to like the feeling of space and the stars it gave me.

  334. 334 smb40

    [..YouTube..] This is a lovley break when your fighting the all mighty emobodiment of evil known as Giygas! :D

  335. 335 bobaneko

    [..YouTube..] for me it is who will a tod that a great villian and a horrible thing can hide such a adorable music

  336. 336 smb40

  342. 342 SawneyWrath

    [..YouTube..] i fell asleep listining to this

  343. 343 shadthekitsune

    [..YouTube..] yeah that’s normal… such relaxing and awesome music can only leave you to reach the most advenced state of inner piece: the sleep ‘-’

  344. 344 randomdude768

    [..YouTube..] i keep siing this in my head in school it gets kinda annoying but i love this song

  345. 345 Reubenm7

    [..YouTube..] is it wrong for a grown man to cry?

  346. 346 AnnaSartin

    [..YouTube..] No. No, it’s not.

  347. 347 shujinco2

    [..YouTube..] Question: WHY do they use two differant “8 Melodies” for Mother 1 and 2? Shouldn’t it be the same one?

  348. 348 DrClash

    [..YouTube..] I swear, I was waiting for the mortally wounded Giygas theme to pop up.

  349. 349 MrtIstheLionKing

    [..YouTube..] King is pretty damn old. Considering how he was alive when Ness was born, he’d be about 13. That’s 91 in dog years!

  350. 350 dumbasspauldentonkin

    [..YouTube..] I’m 16 and my dog is older than me :P

  351. 351 MrtIstheLionKing

    [..YouTube..] D: That’s at least 112! Man, what’s this world coming to?

  352. 352 dumbasspauldentonkin

    [..YouTube..] Well my Mum’s dog liced to be 17 and I know several people whose dogs live to be 19.

  353. 353 MrtIstheLionKing

    [..YouTube..] Wow! I didn’t think that that was common…

  354. 354 dumbasspauldentonkin

    [..YouTube..] I wouldn’t put it past there being something in Yorkshire water :P

  355. 355 Timewap

    [..YouTube..] Giygas takes 3,562 damage.

  356. 356 AkumaUchitoru

    [..YouTube..] Hell no. :( That’s the problem about things lately… Things that move you… Things that are actually worth crying for, like people fighting each other, even among Families, Friends, and their own Country…It’s okay for any human to cry no matter what sex or age…

  357. 357 teryakicat

    [..YouTube..] No. Not at all… Not at all.

  358. 358 MrtIstheLionKing

    [..YouTube..] There very well may be… *eyes darting*

  359. 359 ShadicoTheHedgehog

    [..YouTube..] This is,in fact, a five month old comment.but i still have a question.How in the world can people fight with this peaceful music in the background?

  360. 360 Siberianhusky89

    [..YouTube..] Easy, the pause button.

  361. 361 BushidoMH

    [..YouTube..] For some reason, whenever I hear this… one thought comes into my head: “take more photos”. So much time passed… so many people that I love that I haven’t talked to in forever. The memory of this amazing game tells me to keep other memories close.

  362. 362 ILuvSeaweed138

    [..YouTube..] Agreed.

  363. 363 Benny5421

    [..YouTube..] I was expecting the music to suddenly change and scare the life out of me.Thankfully, it didn’t. :)

  364. 364 Strwrsgeek14

    [..YouTube..] Ness starts crying.Paula starts crying.Jeff starts crying. Poo starts crying.Giygas starts crying.

  365. 365 ShadShaddo

    [..YouTube..] Giygas took 1337 damage from this song

  367. 367 randomdude768

  368. 368 pokefreakbror

    [..YouTube..] Is it just me or is pokey(porky) sitting in that starman?

  369. 369 ClausBound

    [..YouTube..] Lol its just ness

    [..YouTube..] @pokefreakbror No shit sherlock.

  372. 372 UltamiteLifeForm360

    [..YouTube..] @pokefreakbroractually it’s Ness’ Reflection on the Final Starman visorspeaking of it, the cover is actually spoilers in the game sort of

  373. 373 UltamiteLifeForm360

    [..YouTube..] UltamiteLifeForm360 wanted to cry… but remembered 1 of the most important rules… No crying until the end…

  374. 374 PKOmega330

    [..YouTube..] it’s ness’ reflection

  375. 375 fuzzypickles34

    [..YouTube..] I wish i could express the sadness and happiness filling my body as i hear this again… i feel my spirit has left my body and gone to heaven leaving my “body” for the bad times in life and my soul for everlasting joy and fantastic wonders. thank you.

  376. 376 Destinyfire0

    [..YouTube..] I miss Earthbound so much

  377. 377 AkumaUchitoru

    [..YouTube..] UltamiteLifeForm360 got heart ache!UltamiteLifeForm360 took mortal damage!UltamiteLifeForm360 got hurt and collapsed!AkumaUchitoru used (a reviving spell)!UltamiteLifeForm360 got back up, but he felt stronger than before!

  378. 378 SkullFace72

    [..YouTube..] That was deep.

  379. 379 SkullFace72

    [..YouTube..] That’s Ness.

  380. 380 zelgiusthebrave670

    [..YouTube..] Thank you.

  381. 381 NessandNinten

    [..YouTube..] Please! Nintendo, release Earthbound On virtual console! Thousands of lives… touched by this game. Thousands… heartbroken. This one song… No more yelling, just asking. Do you care about us? Just please, Nintendo, asking you this one time. please.

  382. 382 BushidoMH

    [..YouTube..] Don’t forget your childhood… we all may have been young, and naive, but we were truthfully so. Truth is something you can lose as you get older, but if you pay attention to yourself, you’ll find that not everything has changed in all these years. :)

  383. 383 NessandNinten

    [..YouTube..] From my comment, Nintendo will ignore it. Even if this soul touching music plays.

  384. 384 garfocus

    [..YouTube..] This one song shows the love of Earthbound. It melt the hearts of even the evilest fans. Earthbound has reached through to the hearts of anyone who pays attention to it’s small cartridge. No it’s not a cartridge, it’s love. So come on, let’s hear it for Earthbound!

  385. 385 joethehero2

    [..YouTube..] I just noticed this, but you can see ness reflected in the starman’s visor

  386. 386 GoNoAMMo

    [..YouTube..] @joethehero2 OMG I can’t believe I never saw that before! That’s awesome!

  387. 387 martooxxx

    [..YouTube..] Oddly, this song fits in a game series that has been forgotten by Nintendo. I mean come on!For example: Mother 3 was announced in 2000 and, after cancelling the N64DD, it was ported to the GBA and released in 2006, two years after a more advanced portable (the DS) was released.On the other hand, Pokemon Platinum was announced in June 2008 and released in September 2008!

  388. 388 L33Tch33z

    [..YouTube..] how could you not notice that??

  389. 389 GoNoAMMo

    [..YouTube..] @L33Tch33z Easy, I wasn’t paying attention before. I was too busy either dancing or playing the game. :D

  390. 390 eightbitgnosis

    [..YouTube..] I always thought it looked a lot like Ness was piloting a giant Starman robot

  391. 391 luigigaara618

    [..YouTube..] What are the lyrics? I NEED TO KNOW!

  392. 392 Airking4321

    [..YouTube..] I haven’t lived, half as long, as others have,But I still have, my red hat, and cracked bat,my friends, my thoughts, and my family.through all the smiles and tears.

  393. 393 genowhril809

    [..YouTube..] Giygas Remembered when Ninten sangthe 8 melodys to him!Giygas starts to cry!Pokey:WHAT?!?!?CMON YOU GIANT RED SWIRLY THING!DESTROY THEM!Giygas had a change of heart!You Cannot Grasp the true form of Giygas’ Attack!Pokey fell down and collapsed…Giygas left Ness,his friends and all of earth.YOU WON!

  394. 394 mattyl46

    [..YouTube..] thats sould be a true ending

  395. 395 starwars96

    [..YouTube..] This song reminds me of three things.1:How great memories can be. For some reson this song just reminds me of Kindergarten and stuff.2:How Great Music affects your life.3:How dissapointed I am at myself for never playing this game, let alone knowing about it for more that a year. I’ve never played Earthbound, but I want to.I’d say I’m a fan, even though some people think you have to have played to be a fan. Nintendo, Why? Why not give people the chance to play on Viturale Consoule? Why?

  396. 396 XdragonSB

    [..YouTube..] There’s always the emulator. Download the emulator and rom and enjoy. That’s how I did it. That’s how I HAVE to do it.Yeah, if you really want to play, you’re left with this option. Or waste lots of money and buy the console and the super rare game.

  397. 397 starwars96

    [..YouTube..] @XdragonSB I already got a console and it plays both nes and snes games. And, I’m going to “Waste” my money and get it.

  398. 398 Knuxsega

    [..YouTube..] I was planning on buying but DAMN it’s just way too expensive and all i’ve been doing for the past 2 years is hoping for a North American remake or release or something. I’m sure something like that wil happen someday

  399. 399 XdragonSB

    [..YouTube..] Waste…. by that I meant that I heard it’s going around for over 1000 bucks.But I really didn;t look it up.So…. good luck and have fun with earthbound!

  400. 400 do0rkn0b

    [..YouTube..] @Knuxsega KEEP HOPE ALIVE

  401. 401 CelsiusSnowe

    [..YouTube..] It runs for only a 100 right now. Pretty decently priced, compared to the 200+ it can be offered at.

  402. 402 BluYoshi9001

    [..YouTube..] @starwars96 Copyright issues. Remember Dali’s Clock?

  403. 403 KawaiiDesuNekoBCSK

    [..YouTube..] 1357 HP of damage to Giygas!

  404. 404 Earthboundfan33

    [..YouTube..] this is the gyigas Version

  405. 405 shujinco2

    [..YouTube..] @Earthboundfan33 Actually, this is the version with the flashback, with lil’ baby Ness.

  406. 406 Earthboundfan33

    [..YouTube..] I ALWAYS GET CONFUSED WITH THOSE TWO

  407. 407 Celticguardian747

    [..YouTube..] @anyone who thinks emulating is immoral:Remember, there’s no way Nintendo will get your money for this game, no matter what. Emulation doesn’t hurt them in the least. Now, do you really want to give $200+ to someone WHO WOULD FREAKING SELL EARTHBOUND? I know I don’t.

  408. 408 Godrik1445

    [..YouTube..] it is

  409. 409 DT170x

    [..YouTube..] This is the song that broked Giygas :)

  410. 410 drew9288

    [..YouTube..] yea,i saw one of those consoles pretty spiffy!

  411. 411 therealMrL

    [..YouTube..] that and one of the songs is a Beatles song remix.

  412. 412 AlphaOrigin

    [..YouTube..] @DT170x No, your thinking of those OTHER Eight Melodies.

  413. 413 GaseousNobility

    [..YouTube..] This song reminds me of how I want to play this game, now that I’m a fan…

  414. 414 sayastra

    [..YouTube..] @Celticguardian747 emulating or pirating- because this game has been known to produce fucked up pirate cartridges (something about confirmation chips)

  415. 415 Celticguardian747

    [..YouTube..] @sayastra Modern emulators work around that. Never been a problem for me.

  416. 416 sayastra

    [..YouTube..] i’m not talking about emulator… i was asking do you mean emulating or pirate cartridges? Down loading the emulated game is fine, but getting the hacked cartridge i don’t recommend- not because of morals; the hacked cart for this game is known to freeze and then when you re-start it erases all of your games (there’s a vid on you-tube featuring it) REAL copies have chips that communicate and constantly verify that it’s a authentic copy- hacks don’t (that’s why it fuck up like that)

  417. 417 TekmonX

    [..YouTube..] @genowhril809Go Giygas, Show your kind the power of love!!!!!

  418. 418 TekmonX

    [..YouTube..] Giygas… I ask you one question before we fight… Would you rather be the embodiment of evil (Anger), Or the Embodiment of love…Love or Fear…I don’t want to fight you…I want to love you :).

  419. 419 ninjamario412

    [..YouTube..] gay.

  420. 420 ZaketoX2

    [..YouTube..] You cannot comprehend the nature of Giygas’ attack!999 damage.

  421. 421 dynamitekid1234

    [..YouTube..] This is one of my all-time favorite songs from this game. X3

  422. 422 IAMJEWELMAN

    [..YouTube..] @ninjamario412- douche :)

  423. 423 TheJeffster23

    [..YouTube..] I finished Earthbound and Mother 3 today.Now if only I could get my hands in a translated MOTHER rom…

  424. 424 Ikariamology

    [..YouTube..] this song was too awesome for gygas to handle. And I think my computer maybe on the verge of breaking due to this awesome music.

  425. 425 olivierfromricochet

    [..YouTube..] This is so beautiful… simple… emotional… can’t stop listening it….

  426. 426 sayastra

    [..YouTube..] hmmm…. it’s not the same 8 melodies as Mother earthbound zero :S

  427. 427 ZaketoX2

    [..YouTube..] Its called earthbound zero.

  428. 428 shujinco2

    [..YouTube..] @TheJeffster23 Dude…. just type Earthbound Zero rom in Google.Now… Mother 1 (imo) isn’t as good as these other two games… but still worth playing.

  429. 429 TheJeffster23

    [..YouTube..] thanks man!

  430. 430 DeuceyDee

    [..YouTube..] I had this song in my head during an emotional time. I pretty much cried.

  431. 431 Fredinosaur

    [..YouTube..] The best of the 3 is defenantly the 3rd.Mother 3 has so much emotional trauma, and so much storyline, it’s scary. The game is Nintendo’s best, and Reggie is a total asshole for not releasing it in America. Itoi spent years trying to get him to release Earthbound, and it took so long, it didn’t sell well in the US, because the N64 came out. And thus, making him not release either of the games, even the ALREADY translated Earthbound0, or Mother. See you in Hell, Reggie.

  432. 432 SethGueko2008

    [..YouTube..] Isn’t this music playing during the battle against Giygas ?

  433. 433 BigMDooply13

    [..YouTube..] I think the reason they didn’t release that game is because it strays away from the theme of the light-hearted funny mother series. It has a little too much death for my taste. I mean watching Hinawa and Claus die was so sad and I hated the fact that a NINTENDO game would have that much death. :-(

  434. 434 BigMDooply13

    [..YouTube..] Nintendo doesn’t promote Ness enough. He’s probably one of if not the strongest coolest character in nintendo so why is he so undermined?

  435. 435 KIngdomKeySRK

    [..YouTube..] @BigMDooply13 Earthbound is one of the most under-rated RPGs in history. It was on the SNES, so it was forgotten quickly.

  436. 436 BigMDooply13

    [..YouTube..] the sad thing is that games on the snes like earthbound and mario rpg have been better than games even for the wii

  437. 437 KIngdomKeySRK
