Another big one is the story mode menu theme from budokai 1 sounds like Cant Keep My Eye Off of You by Frankie Valli. Its even one of the ones that they changed in the hd collection
I know that I'm several years late, but an addendum to the Banjo-Kazooie song is that "Mumbo's Mountain" is only the level and the actual theme is "Ticker's Tower" which is what plays inside the termite hill. I believe other channels have done side by side comparisons but the actual Mumbo's Mountain theme is not the inspired track Grant Kirkhope was referring to in that one Game Grumps guest interview. Still a great piece of trivia though.
There's many songs from NES and SNES games I played in my childhood where I could have sworn I heard them somewhere else or at least something very similar to them before I played the games. Maybe I heard them from a movie, tv show or cartoon or elsewhere. The Mega Man games have a lot of those songs for example.
Some suggestions: Gain Ground Level 1 - Lion Sleeps Tonight Rocket Power - Team Rocket Rescue (PS1) Track 7 - Techno Syndrome Cave Story Moon Song - Veggietales I Can Be Your Friend Jumping Flash World 1-2 Theme - Sakura Theme (Street Fighter Alpha 2) B.Dosa Theme (Dragon Master) - The Rising Ninja Spirit (Naruto)
The main title theme for Worms World Party also sounds fairly similar to Top Gun theme, now that I think about it~ Not exact match, but there's overlaps~
Bit of a weak suggestion, but the Crash Man theme from _Mega Man II_ has a part in it that I can’t hear without thinking of the refrain from “The Roses of Success” from _Chitty Chitty Bang Bang_ due to similar beat. Also, the theme to _Battletoads_ had me struggling to figure out why the opening notes sounded so familiar and I realized they sounded similar to the opening to “Beat It” by Michael Jackson. A stretch I’m sure on both of them.🫤 Also, sorry if any of these have been suggested before, at 93 episodes, one tends to forget.
I've never heard of it. I can't even find it on RU-vid. When I was sifting through the Castlevania franchise for a previous top 10 episode, I heard that theme and recognized it right away. Actually, I got intrigued by my discovery that I dug up that The Terminator soundtrack was quite influential in Japan. I listened to the whole soundtrack and found quite a few oddly submissions (especially Factory Chase). I'm glad one of my Terminator submissions hit these episodes (there's probably enough for one full episode).
One of the things you haven't mentioned yet that i think would be cool if you did is the arena war theme from gta 5 sounds basically exactly like jump by van halen
I have more really obvious samples on my channel you haven't featured yet if you still want to use them. I haven't done the Sonic 2/Corazon Encadenado or Car Wash/Tekken 1 select theme videos yet. Sonic The Hedgehog 2: Robotnik/boss theme - Best of My Love/Emotions Sonic The Hedghog 2: Ending theme - Corazon Encadenado/Camilo Sesto Car Wash - Tekken 1/Select Theme Ryu's Theme Viator - Tekken 3/Gon's Theme Dre Day - Sonic Adventure 2/Aquatic Mine Ladies Night - Kid Chameleon/Devil's Marsh Rock The Night - Resident Evil 2/Credit Line Pictures Of Old Days - Toejam And Earl/Alien Break Down The Crying Game - Street Fighter Alpha 3/Daybreak Beverly Hills Cop Theme - Dynasty Warriors 8 Select Theme Streets Of Rage/Select Theme - Dr Dre/Ring Ding Dong
Interesting to see a song that didn't make it into the finished product, I wonder if there's other cases like that. Reminds of how a cover of a Pokemon song was found in the game files of Catherine (I guess it was some kinda sound test?)
I know this is an old video, but what if you have a script that you didn't get from the online tab, how would you put it into a memory slot from there.
It’s interesting. Listening to them, some of the music doesn’t seem to me like theft, most of them feels like inspiration. I mean okay, the rythm, and the basic flow is there, but he made these melodies to his own. Like the Deep Purple one is like i can’t even hear it, and i like that song.
Random RU-vidr that has just the information. Not spammed with random jokes that aren't funny or you rambling about your 27 other projects. I feel like I just slipped into a time warp.
