[@spork8655]

Dancing Mad blew my MIND as a kid. Really the whole end battle and credits were unlike anything I had ever seen in a game.

[@drake2quared]

The transition from Red Wings to the Chrono Trigger main theme is absolutely GOLDEN

[@BenVanatoo]

You know your SNES tunes, dude. Great list!

[@SNESdrunk]

Ben Sloup Thanks!

[@perunplague9794]

38:24 man that 16 bit drum solo always sounded amazing

[@ryanmccracken7247]

Your music compilation videos are outstanding for studying, resting, sleeping, relaxing, partying, working, ... what aren't they great to accompany?!

[@chrissanchez7966]

Megaman X, hits me right in the childhood 😢

[@posivibez2094]

Me too dude 😭

[@SM-ws4ih]

Glad to see Breath of Fire is getting some love

[@thefellduck]

Best video game system of all time and excellent selection. Really well done. Part 1 is stellar, too.

[@andross2k]

Your the man snesdrunk 2014

[@ElEsJuan-wn3pl]

My Toe! My Toe! *Siren noises* all of these songs are instant bangers, finally someone put the best SNES songs into 3 videos ❤️

[@razrentals8897]

The theme from the Ice Country in Secret of Mana is amazing. It fits the snowy landscape so well. I couldn't tell you how many hours I've spent going back and forth from the village to the castle killing the same wolves over and over again just to level up. You don't even notice the time you're spending. It's almost therapeutic . Out of every RPG I've ever played its definitely my favorite place to grind.

[@LoZTwilight]

Raz Rentals i got to agree with you there, this and Lufia 2 had stellar soundtracks. Chrono trigger is up there but i Just feel so much with that SoM and lufia 2 tracks. oh... Sweet nostalgia

[@claytonyoung9941]

I could listen to Sewer Surfin' for the rest of my life.

[@ROOMBAfloorvac]

Seriously, AWESOME choices. I agree with all of them. Gradius III surprised me too!

[@Bigbudd0045]

Dancing Mad is the best FF track period. One Wing Angel doesnt hold a candle to it.

[@blackenedwritings]

As much as I love "One Winged Angel" I fully agree. Doesn't get more epic than that!

[@SirenoftheVoid]

It is amazing yes but the track that gets me emotional is Terra's Theme.

[@moodydude6790]

2nd half of the track is even deadly better. Just pure gothic pipe organ music!

[@Damianweibler]

I always found OWA a bit boring and monotonous.

[@mr.berardine1694]

@@SirenoftheVoid it was always Celes theme that got me, even to this very day when it occasionally pops up on my gaming tunes playlist. An while I dig One Winged Angel, nothing can capture a final boss fight like Dancing Mad can. Hands down one of my favorite tunes.

[@mr.hawklingiii8739]

strong opening with The Red Wings theme, powerful and epic as they patrol the skies of Baron

[@JohnSmoltz29]

DK Jamz - One of the best soundtracks ever, 16-bit bliss.

[@rgarciaf071]

Nice list the only modification I'd do is the Super Mario World, "Overworld 2" with Yoshi, thanks for sharing :-)

[@igortesch]

Your selection is awesome, man. Pretty much the same tracks i always listen. Congrats!

[@ztoxtube]

That Castlevania dungeon tune sounds like the most moving of Dead Can Dance tracks. I'd say it's also a tie for my favorite SNES tune ever.

[@SNESdrunk]

Ha, good call with Dead Can Dance, I can almost hear Brendan's voice over that one

[@Gabbasuperhero]

THESE TRACK ARE TOO HOT AND YOU MADE MY COMPUTER BURST INTO FLAMES, OPENS WITH RED WINGS?!?!?!?! GOT DAYYYYYYMN

[@darklotus5309]

Thought about looking up your original “Best SNES music” but then a FF 4 track kicked in. My sons getting ready for his 1st day of his sophomore year today & we’re listening to this.

[@Jason199X]

Secret of Mana "A Wish" is probably one of the most beautiful and heart rending songs on SNES. Great lists! I'm glad I stumbled upon your channel, dude!

[@maxsterbator69]

I love this mix SNES drunk. Thank you Thank you Thank you!

[@madebyLGrabowski]

Great Collection, Dude. Definitely saving these in my own "SNES Tunes" playlist. Thanks!

[@CryonicCrusader]

More thoughts: - Red Wings! Favourite track from FFIV - Chrono Trigger just has a good soundtrack, period. I don't think there's a track I dislike in the entire OST. - "A Wish" is a piece I do like from Secret of Mana. - I think other than the Ridley/Draygon/escape theme, this is my favourite track from Super Metroid; there's a reason it got reused in Metroid Prime 2. - While there are only three themes I dislike from Super Castlevania IV (Stage 3-3 sounded too hippyish for the game, Stage 7 was weak, and the rehash of Vampire Killer in Stage A failed miserably), I think there are better themes from that game than the Torture Chamber. Still good, though. - I seem to remember my mom really liking "Life in the Mines" :-p It certainly is good, although there were other OST tracks I preferred. - Skyblazer... an underrated gem all around. - I liked all three stage themes from Level 1, particularly 1-3. - Alan and Cerl... THE FEELS. - Stage 3 from Contra 3 is called "Neo Kobe Steel Factory." And it is awesome, even more so than most of this game's tracks, which are all awesome, IMO. :-D - Mega Man X had amazing music in general. - Dancing Mad... epic.

[@GritMcGruff]

My toes! My toes!

[@7thangelad586]

Starting with FFIV. Even after thirty years I never get tired of hearing the soundtrack.

[@Justforvisit]

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IV: Turtles in Time's "Sewer Surfin'" certainly is a prime example on how to use the famous Orchestra Hit sound effect to its maximum effect :)

[@HUNT3R737]

Another great list. I really like the Gradius 3 tunes.

[@2WhiteAndNerdy]

Wow. That Donkey Kong Country track is simply amazing. Tears of nostalgia here. It was upon DKC's release that my Genesis fanboy friends finally bowed and worshiped the SNES's audio prowess.

[@martinezosjorge]

Nice compilation. ¡Greetings from Mexico!

[@laprasdewgong5022]

What a great selection! Thank you very much for these videos

[@greenwindstudio]

awesome. perfect bg music for work!

[@kieran7409]

Bahamut Lagoon is just absolute math rock.

[@Chris-bi5er]

Lower Brinstar is the king of SNES soundtracks. There’s nothing else like it.

[@JohnMatayas]

Jesus Christ, i'm super glad I found this channel...

[@SirGlacius1]

Amazing video, thank you!! I like Super Mario World, "Overworld 2" when ridding Yoshi better, with the percussion.

[@Atreiides_]

it's impossible to disagree with your choices, since almost every single music on SNES slaps hard

[@pancake1979]

Thanks for your work and time. Love this :)

[@zeroangelmk1]

"Free the Freilians. Make Deathtoll pay." I guess you could say that he paid the ultimate toll. ;)

[@jjlnguess7354]

Great selection. No arguments here. 😎👍

[@dbpooper7512]

That Skyblazer track always got me pumped. Probably my favorite level in the game (save for the annoying boss), 99% of which is due to the song.

[@truthseeker9656]

Every game in that list are masterpiece games.

[@truthseeker9656]

Excellent list.

[@Office_De_Receiver_Complaints]

Glad to see FF4 Getting props up top. Epic

[@jonnyeldritch]

pure fire in 2022 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@jessicapinto3817]

"Life in the Mines" ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ still make me tear up

[@williamfiuza8328]

Great list.

[@usaskjock]

Lufia 1 - Fortress of Doom theme. Epic

[@DDOSProxy1989]

Muchas gracias!, thank you so much!

[@METALFAN2486]

SNESDRUNK u made my night i miss spark mandrill's stage music so much from megamanx megamanx is one of those games that my friends would let me borrow but never buy it from them along with castlevania:dracula X but it's ok bc i own the first castlevania game now that i ever played CASTLEVANIA:BLOODLINES for sega genesis and yes it is a exclusive game to the genesis and yes i has some very loud screeching noise in the games music but the boss battles are epic.

[@thepeller210]

Good selection!

[@murielleladouceur6414]

Just for Breath of Fire, "Alan and Cerl", I liked your vid. ;)

[@maxsterbator69]

First time I heard this song ever today. What a gem!

[@edwardgaines6561]

I knew this list would include MegaMan X, that game is the jewel of the crown that is the SNES! 👑

[@ReiStarlove]

*sees FFIII title screen for last 17 minutes of video* Yeah, that's definitely Dancing Mad.

[@juanpablojaramillo2873]

finalk fantasy 2 one of the best history and game i ever played

[@Giesela0815]

Thanks!

[@Fifteen_Fifty]

Never heard Lisa's song thanks!

[@Tyndras]

People have already commented on this but the intro music bit is so groovy! Do you have any of your music up online or advice for making this kind of music?

[@guttsu]

I will say this on every SNES music compilation that has it: Chrono Trigger is best SNES OST.

[@ChancreSaurusRex]

The entire Gradius 3 soundtrack

[@matmcpaul9060]

Perfect

[@mikedawgx01]

lol I always forget how long Dancing Mad is

[@lasafrog]

I appreciate that you played the long version of the opera song, but man, that's not good listening like the rest. Otherwise fantastic group of songs, I'm glad you put that last so I can skip it in the future and not miss anything. Very smart placement. By the time I was nearly 20 minutes into that once impressive song I wanted to rip my ears off. Secret of mana song is a pure bliss and takes me back 25 years.

[@ΦωτιοςΙ.κουτσουπας]

A Wish from secret of mana is something else

[@ravynknight7146]

53:35 gives me goosebumps every time

[@rdrouynriv]

That's when you fight Kefka's ultimate form.

[@igotkings]

Radical Dudes

[@icygmoney9351]

Lisa’s song. Always gets me

[@maxsterbator69]

First I hear this track ever. It's incredible!

[@migkocando]

"Lisa's Song" the best track of Soul Blazer...

[@Tedzee8]

Super Metroïd : scary and heroic at once

[@BryceBurgeson]

Sewer surfing awesome! I agree.

[@remyparaskovia5499]

Final Fantasy..... Nobuo Uematsu doesn't get Enough credit as Composer the man is A God.

[@VideoGameMasters09]

Dat Spark Mandrill theme though

[@richkavanagh2778]

Killer instinct had some heavy tunes

[@sonicmario64]

No offense, but ending the video with an incredibly lengthy song from "Final Fantasy III" was definitely not my idea of a good time. ;P

[@stucazzo2000]

I think Konami and Square had the best music on the SNES, I might even give the edge to Konami.

[@Bigbudd0045]

stucazzo2000 capcom had great music on SNES too.

[@shubertdoo2807]

TIME TRAVELER ACTIVATED

[@ianwalker5845]

Hell yeah Gradius 3 right in to tmnt 4

[@MaverickMustaine]

Will always agree with everything you say

[@Vaporbomb]

7:58 Pizza time!

[@jamesgrey785]

SNES F-zero silence track has epic slap bass

[@ryanl8730]

Classic!

[@Gibe-yg9ep]

Contra III than memories T-T

[@Samplespaceification]

I've always thought FFVI's US box art (FFIII) was weird. Why Mog? And what exactly is happening??? lol

[@evilblader7]

Ufff... Spark mandrill.

[@baloloons]

mega turrican, this song was puberty for me

[@Bigbudd0045]

That 1-1 stage from super turrican, i liked the game but didnt love it, but man did it have killer music.

[@craiganderson7085]

+Bigbudd0045 I agree. Chris Huelsbeck goodness :)

[@agp11001]

+Bigbudd0045 THE FEELS! THE NOSTALGIA! Oh my, I think I need a hug right now...

[@lordvartak]

Your list are always great. Fuck the people who say otherwise !

[@eriknicholas7294]

37:35 - TerminalMontage agrees.

[@dannyboi7877]

I peed a little when the red wings theme came on

[@pedrogoncalvesneto2451]

08:00 HUMM PIZZA!

[@matthewdavidjohnson2]

I play Gradius 3 just as an excuse to listen to the music.

[@karlsylvain]

whats the intro song???

[@SNESdrunk]

I used to record music years ago, that's something I made

[@karlsylvain]

***** it sounds amazing!! you should upload that song on youtube

[@SNESdrunk]

Karl Sylvain Thanks!

[@Ti0Luch0]

So? did you? i'd like to hear the rest of it.

[@GabrielPerez-zc2xc]

Brother! Thats some nice music! Did you uploaded it??

[@Dsims37]

Argh! You didn’t include the music I wanted you to! How dare you!

[@rocko7711]

❤️🕹️❤️👾❤️🎮❤️

[@gabster4222]

Who else says ''Pizza time!'' at 8:34?

[@UnDeaDCyBorg]

I think it kinda lacks morgue from Shadowrun (SNES).

[@MrGanon360]

Seriously they needed to add secret of evermore the music was orchestral

[@chrisbent5734]

Sewer surfin seems to be some kind of enhanced or high quality version? Can someone please tell me the source? It's driving me insane!

[@METALFAN2486]

i had the MEGAMANX OST on my computer but ever since my second hard drive quit working on my desktop pc i can't listen to it.
