36:05 You said this and I was in the middle of the hidden mission in Mario Meets Mario in Galaxy 1 in the All-Stars version while playing this video as noise to listen to 😭 I feel called out even though I did play them way before the All Stars game ever got announced 🤣
World 3 theme in this game is literally the best piano piece I've ever heard in a videogame. This game's OST is literally a perfect replica of the first galaxy
Mario galaxy 2 is and will always be my favorite childhood game, and to this day, it is among the best games ever. Imo galaxy 2 really has some of the best music i have ever heard, it tops galaxy 1 for me. The music is truly peak.
Yoooo I'm glad I'm not the only one, we just randomly got SMG2 and I never played 1 until I was in high school, so SMG2 does hit haaard and is super nostalgic!
I know it's an unpopular opinion, but I do prefer this over the first Galaxy game. Puzzle Plank and Cove of Stars are my absolute favourites, the former slaps and the latter is one of the greatest underwater themes in gaming history imo
yoshi star and puzzle plank are probably both in my top 10 mario songs ever, such bangers and easily the best of galaxy not in the "space sounding" ones
Absolutely love the pacing in this video, editing was on point :)) I really like both Galaxy OSTs, played 2 first though so I think it's a little extra ingrained in me!
I’m honestly super excited to watch this. Your Galaxy 1 video was the one that brought me to your channel and I’ve been enjoying everything you’ve put out since then!
Yo! You’re totally using the tiermaker template I made! That’s so cool, I never thought anyone but me would use that thing As you could probably guess, I love these games and their soundtracks
47:33 I fucking love Space Storm Galaxy. It’s right at the point where the game says “all right, playtime’s over, shit’s getting real.” The theme is menacing and feels like you’re somewhere you’re not supposed to be, which fits PERFECTLY with the derelict space station already filled with dangers that is now caught up in a cosmic storm. (And no, I will NEVER call the song “Battle Belt” because those ASTEROIDS can go FUCK off somewhere else.) And then you boot up the second mission and are hit with Buoy Base’s theme, and now everything’s moving really fast, but now there’s a button that can slow time, and how cool is that?
I always love it when u rate musik, it is the most fun part about the mariokart tierlists and this video is no exeption, however I sadly havent played mario galaxy one or two YET.
Galaxy 2 has got to be one of the best games I’ve ever played, imo it’s better than galaxy 1 but will never be odyssey. But oh my god this was the best wii game in so many factors EDIT: why the fuck is every comment undertale lmao
So many great things from the galaxy games you actually forget aren’t in the first game because they just fit into galaxy 2 so well and its by far the more refined experience. A lot of the ost is like this but also other things like the power ups, side characters like the chimp and everything to do with Yoshi
I have no idea how this video found me, but I love your personality. Great video. The Galaxy games are by far some of the greatest games I have ever played, and the music is a big reason. I have been obsessed with classical music since I was a kid, so the music for these games hits home so hard. I will never ever give up hope for a Galaxy 3. I am ready to lose my mind and cry so hard when it happens. 😭😭💖
Amazing tier list, just like the 1st Galaxy! I got Super Mario Galaxy 2 for Christmas back in 2010 and only beat the first few missions for the longest time. But after over a decade, I revisited it in 2021, and I VERY strongly regret neglecting this game! Galaxy 2 took what was already an amazing game, and managed to make it even better! That goes for the amazing soundtrack as well, and I have no problems with any of your placements! Glad we can agree the Galaxy duology has an absolutely stellar OST!
Other games have done it since but the Galaxy games felt like the first time video game music could be so much more than i ever imagined - im glad you enjoyed the video!
I will always prefer galaxy 2 to galaxy 1 but it’s not even because it’s better, they are pretty much equally good 2 is just more fun to 100% but 1 has its own selling points that I can see would make people prefer it. If you say Mario galaxy is your favorite game you shouldn’t have to specify which they are a package deal.
Super Mario Galaxy 2 is one of the first Mario games I ever played, and it is probably my favorite game of all time. I had lots of fun playing Galaxy 1 for the first time, as I had no idea it existed, but I still prefer Galaxy 2 over 1. The music is incredible in both games, and it brings back lots of childhood memories for me. I always forget that Glamdozer exists...
As much as I love Galaxy 2, to me at least, it doesn’t have enough of the “Galaxy” feel like the first game. This also goes for the soundtrack. Honestly though, both of these games and their soundtracks are STELLAR!
24:28 this piece is heavly inspired by classical music (duh every song in this game is), but this particular one is inspired by a composed called ravel, and possibly debussy. there's a piece called gaspard de la nuit odine (odine means water element, and the galaxy is water themed) and use similar chords and have a similar dreamy vibe, and there are many other pieces by these composers that have parts with this feeling. another similar piece I can think of that has a similar vibe is reverie by debussy
Had to click immediately since SMG2 is one of my favorite games of all time. A bit sad that The Starship Sails isn't on here but at least it's referenced in the Staff Roll
While I think Super Mario Galaxy 1 is a much better game, the music in Galaxy 2 is truly incredible, especially the time attack song. Again I still prefer the original but SMG2's soundtrack has some real bangers.
Galaxy 2 was one of my first games on wii alongside sports and mariokart. And these tunes just live in me rent free so yeah there’s not a single one of these that’s not at least A tier for me
“You’re honor I only killed him because he doesn’t think Mario galaxy 2 is perfect” Also I am the Iron Man dude in your switch friends with 2,825 hours on RU-vid
I sadly don't hold any memories of galaxy 2 but I can agree that both it and the original are all peak in their own right. Thank you Mario Mario Spaghetti very cool.
I recently bought Super Mario Galaxy 2 used and I have to admit: After playing Super Mario Galaxy nearly entirely, while also starting Super Mario Galaxy 2 not too long ago, I have to say that the successor is unfortunately inferior to me in the music as the entire package. One major reason is that the music is not that melancholic and fitting to the endless and dreamy vibe of travelling through galaxies and space. With that being said: I have to admit that Yoshi's galaxy and the remake of Koopa's road are easily some of the best OST and the Koopa's road of SMG2 is way better than the one of SMG. Eventhough Super Mario Galaxy 2 sounds so optional, both games deserve their Existence. Super Mario Galaxy 2 is probably in the middle of all 3D-Marios, but shall be respected too like the rest of the bunch.
I ended up putting it at the end of A tier, you can see it right at the end around 1:06:42, its called The Starship Travels - my audio ended up bugging on that part strangely enough maybe even my PC thought low A wasnt fair and had a tantrum lol - glad you enjoyed the video, still!
@@Sir_Musty Wonderful :) Glad it didn't slip off (seeing how it slipped off Nintendo's mind as well for using it for one mission only, absolutely criminal haha) Thanks!
World 3 theme would be perfect for A SUGA of BTS narration background . Yoongi loves piano so if Jin would introduce him to this theme. He’ll try to learn it on piano.
In my opinion, Galaxy 2 is like the New Soup to 1: improved gameplay but bland design. I feel the tracks mirror this. They are, undeniably, bops, but they seems more generic than things like Space Junk Road or Battlerock. I personally perfer 1, but i can see the appeal in 2, especially in the soundtrack.
