Some of my favorite music in Super Smash Bros. Brawl - Part Three

My lack of posts since the release of Super Smash Bros. Brawl attests to the fact that it is fantastically awesome, incredibly fun and astoundingly deep with all manner of modes to keep one busy: the standard multiplayer brawls, a single- or co-op-player adventure mode, coin launcher mini-game to obtain trophies, spectator mode, and on and on. But I'm taking a brief rest now to let my thumbs cool down and post a few more of my favorite songs available in Super Smash Bros. Brawl:

Super Mario Bros. Underwater Theme - Super Mario Bros.



There are some tunes in Brawl that are unchanged from their original games. The main theme from Delfino Plaza is one such song. This, the "Underwater Theme" from the original Super Mario Bros. sounds like it is unchanged, until about 25 seconds in when it begins launching into a variety of remixes of the song in different styles. There's a nice orchestrated version, but my favorite is probably the frantic harmonica-infused remix. This is a hidden song that ends up playing the hidden Underground version of the Mushroomy Kingdom stage that's well worth uncovering.

Super Mario World Title / Ending - Super Mario World



Super Mario World is one of my all-time favorite video games, so it's no surprise that this is one of my favorite tunes to hear popping up in the Delfino Plaza stage. It's a frantic take on the opening titles and closing credits music from the game and it fits perfectly with a manic, all-out brawl.

Mario Golf / Mario Tennis - Mario Golf & Mario Tennis



I'm not exactly sure what to say about this song, other than it's awesome and it plays on the Mario Kart stage--it plays on my Brawl's Mario Kart stage A LOT.

Mother 2 - Earthbound



Here's another Earthbound tune that was previously in Super Smash Bros. Melee on the same Onett stage and it's just as great as that first Mother theme. It think it's pretty same to say that the Onett stage is my most played of all the Melee stages that returned in Brawl, and it's all because of the music.

Final Destination 2 - Super Smash Bros. Brawl



This song came as perhaps the biggest surprise to me. It plays on a rather boring stage (the merely flat Final Destination) and is the only tune initially available on it in My Music. Yet, it got a hold of me and is now one of my favorite songs in the game. It's a remix of the main theme that you can hear throughout the game and its menus (and what a great tune it is), here with the Latin lyrics and a balls-to-the-wall rock sound. My favorite part? In the stage it's when the cloud layers open up revealing a shimmering golden ocean at twilight. You can hear that moment in the music at around 1 minute and 40 seconds. Awe-inspiring.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm headed back to play more Brawl. Bye for now!
