SOME IMPORTANT CORRECTIONS: 1: At 8:10 - I forgot to replace the text "How Ghosts Affect Relationships" with "Darkest Dreams". It's still by the same band though. 2: For Ness's Bike, It could have used the same sound from an audio library that Pink Floyd's Money have been from. 3: I didn't know that the "Good Old Days" song I used is a cover, here's the original: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nkM0m-fB2Uw.html 4: 4:56, accidentally used Mobile opponent instead of a Weird opponent Fixed: I used RU-vid's video editor to get rid of the dead-end chaos theater part of the video because it uses 12 bar blues instead of particular songs. Processing might take a bit to if you see it, it would be gone soon. This is the old video to this btw: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AOzcYDjUBco.htmlsi=8k10_d7L5jDnczrh
Sorry to say it, but I think this does a bad job of comparing the sources. The complete wrong part of Symphony 9 was used, and that’s one of the most obvious ones. Also, some of these are straight samples and others are musical inspirations, and there is a difference
For the last point, thats why in the title of the video, I said “samples and inspirations”. I know the difference. But other parts of the video, it was very difficult to trim the song at the right part so sorry about that.
As a side note. I always thought Giygas resembled the face from the poster for the film adaptation of Pink Floyd The Wall (1982). While it’s clearly meant to be a heavily distorted and messed up version of his sprite from the original Mother, the resemblance between the two is uncanny, and I wouldn’t be surprised if the poster had some influence on Giygas’ twisted and demonic design.
Wow didn't know the US Star-Spangled Banner was also squeezed into Boris Cocktail theme - can mostly only hear the super drunken shroomed version of the Little Rascals theme.
It might just be me, but Coffee Break sounds a lot more like 'Us and Them' than 'Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast.' I hear them both, but U&T sounds stronger.
Battle With A Hippie is 100% Johnny B Goode inspired but that guitar lick actually predates it. Louis Jordon 'Ain't That Like A Woman'. But I think that's sort of the point. Very few things are note for note; composed to emulate a specific sound (in the case, a lot of Beetles and Pink Floyd songs) as opposed to actually being *samples*. It's more Ramonescore (bands like the Queers, the Huntingtons) vs. the actual Ramones. Wearing the influence proudly on their sleeves.
I'm betting that "wow" sound effect was part of a production sound effects library also used in the Blockbuster commercial. The White Zombie one is spot on too - I wonder if he exacted just the vocal recording of the "wow" and licensed it to a sound effects library. Maybe after several requests to sample it. The more I replay it, the more all 3 sound the same - Earthbound - Blockbuster - White Zombie. The Earthbound character setup process has a 90s Nickelodeon vibe and the "wow" fits perfect for completion.
I would like to contribute the following: i don't know if someone else has found the similarities but, in the part where Jeff goes to Dr. Andonuts laboratory, the "Dr. Andonuts Lab" theme sounds too similar "1/1" track from Brian Eno's album "Ambient 1: Music for airport" (1978) My guess mainly it was inspiration for the theme
This is probably more of a coincidence than a sample but am I the only who thinks that the beginning of Prince’s “Let’s Go Crazy” kind of sounds similar to the soundtrack that plays when you reach a sanctuary? It sounds a little similar to the Coffee Break too would love to know if anyone else thinks so
1: I didn’t add it in the Beatles section as it’s debated if it uses an another song. -2: It’s uses both songs from His Name Is Alive. Darkest Dreams is in Giygas Dying sound while How Ghost Affect Relationships is in Giygas Is Fatally Wounded.- Edit: DANG IT, I FORGOT TO ADD THE SONG TITLE. IM AN IDIOT
I don't want to be that "well ackshually ☝🤓" person but at 2:13 the ringing bell is more likely sampled from Sound Ideas Series 1000, since EarthBound uses that library often. Pink Floyd probably used it too, hence the coincidence.
@@cube4547 I mean, sometimes stuff makes me want to point it out, even if it is the smallest inaccuracy but I don't want to give the impression that I'm the type of toxic person that says "well you're wrong cuz I know more than you" because the sample finding community is for everyone!
@@dojyaan.0 oh hey, you're right! Didn't realize Money came out before Sound Ideas, so maybe they sampled Money. Still I don't think it was an intentional sample in EarthBound.
This could just be a coincidence, but I recently found out the intro to "run, rudolph, run" by chuck berry sounds verrrry similar to Frank's theme in the beginning. Again, might be a coincidence but I thought it was cool
It's clear to me that "Buy somthing will ya!" is inspired by "When I'm 64". Listen to the song at 0:31, the resemblance is striking. Great video otherwise! Oh, and thanks for mentioning me, although my username hasn't been "PARALLEX" for a year now... I don't know why but sometimes it's our old usernames that show up and not the newer ones 🤔 So now it's "SEDYON" ;)
Under the fair use doctrine of the U.S. copyright statute, it is permissible to use limited portions of a work including quotes, for purposes such as commentary, criticism, news reporting, and scholarly reports. This is indeed several of these items. However, RU-vid's policy is a different story I suppose - they enforce selectively as they please as some people post entire copyrighted albums (just the music in it's entirety) that stay online for over a decade while another video with merely 5 seconds of the same album gets the copyright strike. I suppose the random album poster somehow got permission.
7:13 hey if you're talking about a sample, actually play the original instead of a cover, even if you can only play it for 2 seconds it's still better. Also how is it possible for people to debate on which sample is the original? Haven't people been able to extract the samples straight from the game? I feel like that'd make it pretty easy to figure it out unless the quality was really bad.
I didn't know that was a cover version lol. Also I added some "debated" ones as it's mostly from my old video comments where people say it one song and not the other while I added some that could be it but not sure (like the Pink Floyd’s money cash register sound)
A different source found a much better similarity for alien invasion. Jon Hassell and Brian Eno: Delta Rain Dream The beginning of All You Need is Love is the French national anthem, La Marseillaise, though it's possible the people including it in Earthbound weren't aware of this.
I agree, the versatility of Pink Floyd is phenomenal. I love everything from their Syd Psychedelic era to their Progressive Rock and Art Rock period. Though for me, It’s kinda tied with King Crimson as my favorite band.
No? How is this AI in any way. I completely edited this by hand and compiled the information from multiple of videos which are in the description, and multiple of comments from last video. Some are sample, some are inspirations. Hence why it’s in the title
