Full Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island OST 

Huh... So this is what it sounds like without a crying baby Mario...

Flower Garden has to be one of the greatest feel-good tunes in all of gaming music. I just can't feel bad when I listen to it.

My grandmother brought me up on video games with Super Mario Bros. 3 being the first I played and had a first memory of. Years later, she quit playing because how many buttons were introduced with the SNES but enjoyed me playing next gen Super Mario games but she HATED this game lol. Every time I would get hit and she would hear Mario cry it would drive her mad and she regretted the decision buying me this game but knew I enjoyed it and stuck around to watch me play it. Up until her passing in 2001, she watched me play every Mario game since. Thank you grandma. I'll never forget you introducing me to professional wrestling and Super Mario. It's a special bond I think about every day and miss you so damn much. I write this listening from 0:00 - 2:44. 34 years old and feels like yesterday playing this. Oh how much I miss yesterday. Love you, miss you more than ever grandma. Thank you.

Koji Kondo is one of the best composers and he really knew how to handle that SNES soundchip!

This soundtrack has a special place in my heart. I loved playing Yoshi's Island as a kid.

Fun fact: Technically every time you hear the music in game is different. Thats because the SNES has a 8 channel audio output, and the music is so complex that it uses all 8 channels. So in order to make a game fx (specially during boss battles) they use a channel and the instrument for that channel stops untill the fx stops. You can hear it more clearly on the Pihranna Boss battle. Yoshi's stomps will use the drums kick channel, and the phiranna sounds will use the armony of the background obstinato.

23:20 I've identified the source of the mysterious melody that has been playing in my head for the last half an hour.

It's amazing how many people have watched this video and instantaneously feel nostalgic. It's been 20+ years and most of us adults yearn for the feeling of our childhood. we all share a common feeling and that amazes me so much.

16:15 is my fucking shit. gets me happy and hype even in depression

o shit... listening to this almost made me cry... the nostalgia is real...

This is not a game. This is art.

despite being such a small soundtrack, every single song is a banger and so memorable, one of my favorite osts in all of mario in overall quality

I want a music box that plays that opening melody.

My favorite theme "Underground" (10:32) When I heard it again it gave me flashbacks to that magical childhood time. I remember that level with colorful crystals and waterfalls. This game deserves a remaster or remake.

A couple things, 1. I never realized how hard the start demo hits, 2. I played the GBA version of this (Super Mario Advance 3), and I still remember being like 7 years old and every time my parents went out I'd always try and beat the final boss. I was stocked with 999 lives because I knew some infinite lives glitches and had my DS hidden away until they left. The day I beat that was the first Mario game I had ever beaten and fely so proud. It's amazing what games can do. 3. One time I softlocked phase 1 of the Baby Bowser fight and have to this day never been able to replicate it.

At 28:00 who else was rocking out? I know i aint the only one lmao. This is what made retro games so freaking awesome, not only was the game kool to play but most of them had really awesome sound tracks.

6:49 The feels! I need to set this as my alarm every day

6:45 the best Nostalgia

I remember playing this when I was so young. Now I'm 30 and life is good but there is nothing like childhood. No responsibilities just fun... I was so happy and I didnt even notice.

35:38 am I the only one who gets chills and tears up a bit at this part? It actually really hits me in the feels its just so beautiful.....

12:20 when you knew the level was gonna be hard

Listening to OST here: What great music... Listening to same OST while playing: What great mus-SHUT UP BABY!

Thank you Susanne, you played with me as a kid. You helped our family when we were at our lowest. You were an angel, like a mother to me, I will never forget you... I will keep your nintendo and yoshi's island forever.

10:32 and 27:00 are the best. This whole OST is a gem.

Just the best video game ever created by nintendo

Nostalgia overload

For some reason, that opening lullaby would make me cry my eyes out as a child. And still does, but now it's because I miss those times...

This makes me cry for some reason. What a core memory this was for my brother and me growing up! This would be the game we would play. I would watch him play it and I would be mesmerized at the colors and the music and the story behind it. It felt like more than a game to me, it was an escape. Listening to this as an adult is a treasure.

6:45 Those three seconds are the best part of this entire thing

Music is seriously amazing!

The underground theme at 10:32 is great. I always loved it as a kid and still do now.

This game had a weird way of bringing a peaceful vibe but in a lot of ways it's always made me want to cry for whatever reason.

This will always be my favorite Mario game no matter what

When I heard the song at the beginning, I felt like I wanted to cry. Childhood nostalgia

Listening to this to keep me calm while delivering packages.. Where are the good ol days :(

I randomly started humming the music at 23:20, and was scratching my brain where I heard it before. I'm so happy I found it after all these years, this music brings me so much nostalgia and joy

discovering as a child how the map tune adds one instrument everytime you clear a world was so exciting, the trumpets as the last instruments at the end were so epic. 0 - Piano alone 1 - Light drums 2 - Violin bridges bringing the tunes together 3 - Banjoes giving agility to the song From here they add 2 instruments: 4 - Trumpets and bass the first half of the cycle announces you are approaching the peak 5 - Trumpets and a little flute second half, ready for the end 6 - Cello and marimbas?.. whatever way great end

If this game was a person, it would be old enough to drink now.

The intro and ending music are like the themes to your childhood, playing this game and others.. Remembering the good ol' times. They always bring a tear to my eye.

I was 7 when I last played this. That's 20 years ago. HOW TF DO I STILL KNOW EACH OF THESE BY HEART

What a childhood it was.. Thanks you for the memories, I will never forget this game till the day I die. I want to be freaking buried with an original copy

The final boss battle (Koopa) literally felt like skydiving . The melody was so intense and upbeat, and then you got Koopa coming at your ass at the speed of sound. This entire soundtrack pretty much sums up my childhood.

3:16 when it starts to hit hard, the song gets great.

I never really thought about how much music Koji Kondo made that now lives rent free in my head.

12:19 the Castle-theme gives me goosebumps everytime. Such a heavy and foreboding melody!

do you ever just cry when you hear the old video game music? it just reminds me of my childhood!

The Music Box reprisal at 31:15 is still one of the prettiest sounds I’ve ever heard. It’s perfect storytelling despite just being a relatively simple 32-bit video game composition.

When I was a child and I finally beat the boss the ending song with the stork carrying the two boys to their parents always brought big crocodile tears to my eyes and it still does to this day nearly 30 years later. Goddammit nintendo. Why you make such good stuff. T.T

The 'Underground' theme always stood out to me. Excellent soundtrack and game from the last days of the SNES.

Yoshi's Start Demo gives me chills. Love that tune. Yoshi is such a good guy for helping Mario as a Baby and going through all that to get back Luigi.

Why was 1995 such a great leap in games, even while staying on the same consoles? They really realized the SNES' potential in this game. The final boss is badass music too

I never had played this game before, but I fell in love with the first music box tune. It's so cute!

This brings me back to the days when I was a happy kid and all I wanted was to play Yoshi's Island with my sister. Now as I get older things just seem to get worse. I miss the simple days where things like this kept me happy. How I miss these days..

this game brings back so much memories :') all of my childhood in one game

When you consider this soundtrack along with so many others that Koji Kondo has composed, you just gotta admit the man's a total genius. (Soundtracks under his belt: Super Mario Bros. NES games through present, The Legend of Zelda NES games through present, Star Fox 64, the Smash Bros. franchise, and many others.) Genius, I tell you!

There's something very emotional that hits when the ending theme finishes with the orignal mario bros. level completed theme...beautiful!

10:32 My friend says snowy game levels always have the best music...I extend that to cave level music.

"WAAAH! WAAAH! WAAAH! WAAAH! WAAAH! WAAAH!"

Four songs in no skips yet. I never played this game. Video game music is so relaxing and happy.

6:45 casi lloro al recordar buenos tiempos:')

28:00 Baby Bowser Boss music rocks my fuckin face off. Its like an electric guirtar vs jazz piano duel.

I love this game with all my heart. It made a great part of my childhood.

This makes me wanna cry

Time flies man

I don't know what it is about 18:24, but man, I love that song.

I just want to listen to "Underground" over and over and over again

Tengo 28 años y aun recuerdo este hermoso juego...

My absolute favorite thing about the intro is the little detail of the sound box crank rotating. You would just never think that level of realism would be possible through 16 but chiptunes yet here we are

10:32 the feels, folks. The fucking feels.

Haha, I love the detail in how the music box gets rewind during the first song! :)

A soundtrack desse jogo é espetacular, simplesmente perfeita! Que capricho nos jogos antigos, nos jogos de hoje, não se faz a metade disso com o mesmo nível de primor!

The Above Ground track - that one was happiness as a kid! This whole soundtrack is. The nostalgia! Good times 😊

the ending theme is too much nostalgia for me to hold in my fanny pack of feels

10:33 GREATEST THEME EVER

I never knew the epilogue theme slowed down until it’s wound back up again. What a nice little detail.

I just completed playing Yoshi Island last night :') so much fun. I might play it again.

This and Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time are probably the most adorable Mario games I have played.

I'm so glad the GBA had great SNES ports or I probably would have never played this game, Super Mario World, or A Link to the Past

Koji Kondo the absolute legend! I love how the mid-boss music sounds so relaxed and playful as a build-up of what's to come while the world boss is one of the most intense damn things you'll ever heard in a Nintendo game and each perfectly set the mood in their own merit. And the Bowser battle theme is something else entirely! And let's not forget how the level selection map theme gets layers of complexity added as you progress through the game until you beat Baby Bowser and it reaches it's final, complete form. I love that so much! Gosh, so much nostalgia...I miss the days of my childhood :(

This is pure magic, i can almost feel the Christmast Eve air, i didn't even thought about getting this and yet a friend of my grandparents bought this to me. I rushed to my SNES and began playing, at the time i didn't even think about how magical this game was, now the carillon is just the soundtrack of a lost childhood, a bit melanchonic but so sweet.

Hands down the best video game sound track ever. This game really captured me as a kid & has stuck with me all my life. Everything about it is amazing and timeless but the music & art style in particular have really stuck in my brain for the last 18 odd years. Ahh nostalgia :') them feels!

16:14 Love it! Still playing at 30 y/o :D

I remember having a bunch of new games on my ds when I was a little kid and was confused what was the slot on the bottom so when I was in the garage cleaning with my dad I found my older cousins games and I popped this game in and got addicted so quickly

One of my favourite games growing up. It’s funny how much nostalgia music can evoke!

voy a llorar :'( mi juego favorito por siempre

9:48-10:32 NOSTALGIA!!!

10:32 is definitely the most iconic out of all of these. Got chills at 12:19 - perfect for an interior...

18:25 I only came for this :D

It's so nice to hear these without the crying sounds over it. Not that I had to listen to a lot of the crying since I'm such an expert of playing games ;)

28:00 EPICNESS

one of those games you rented back in the day and turned the entire weekend into an adventure

Es imposible para mi recordar este juego sin lagrimas en mis ojos!! Mi favorito de toda la vida!!

One of the best games ever made.

Nostalgia, y la última vez que lo jugué fue hace un año. Ah jamás valoramos esos momentos que en el futuro tanto extrañaremos :(

That Credits theme is so beautiful, it never fails to bring a tear to my eye.

Soooooooo amazing.... Especially Athletic... So much energy!!!!

i remember playing this game with my sister when i was younger. then my parents divorced.. she stayed with my dad and i moved away to the other side of the country with my mom. i barely saw her and my dad had our nintendo 64 at his place. when my sister moved out she took the nintendo with her. she moved to Belgium while i'm still in the Netherlands with my mom and stepdad. so.. whenever i hear these soundtracks, it just takes me back to the good old times we spend together playing on the nintendo. :')

can we all agree Koji Kondo is god?

Still one of the finest platformers ever made. They just don't make 'em like they used to...

Still come back to listen to this piece of magic every so often, nostalgia, all those good times, still my all-time favorite game and always will be. Thanks for uploading this.
