Jungle Japes - Super Smash Bros. Melee

[@EdenHellCipher]

This gets stuck in my head every couple of weeks.

[@elijahnorris6760]

I know right

[@brandonspivey5282]

I literally just had to look this up because it was stuck in mine

[@johnhawthorn5393]

I know what you mean

[@itsdan722]

Cos it's a certified hood banger mate

[@LordIncompetent]

When civilization collapses and we must return to monke

[@GiganticPyro]

This theme is the perfect and flawless version of all. The wild jungle vibe is strong there.

[@crashban4t.f.s.b783]

This song takes me back to the 2000s when I played this game at night. I remember it as if it was yesterday.

[@TotallyNotMike]

i remember it taking me until Ultimate to realize this was arranged by the Mother 3 composer, and that's when it clicked that that totally tracks because of the organs lol

[@lapisFarm]

Best version of this theme for me

[@sonysoldier9587]

1:34 - 2:46 Definitely the best part of the song! You're lying if you say it isn't.

[@bosshimselff836]

It IS THE BEST PART I ALWAYS LOVE THAY PART AS A KID🙃

[@EmmyEntropy2000]

Absolutely

[@who7111]

0:51 tho?

[@elijahnorris6760]

1:34 get stuck in my head all the time Great memories

[@Spudtron98]

Some old-school Age Of Empires shit there. _Erectus_

[@elijahnorris6760]

2:18 Luigi!!!!

[@ennovanbaars330]

correct

[@SoulReaperSlayer19]

Is it really?

[@tjlnintendo]

@@SoulReaperSlayer19 No its apart of the music

[@dr.omanyte138]

2:40 Gonna sound weird, but when the elephant noises appeared in the background, I got chills down my spines

[@tralaw6144]

I have already heard this sound of elephant in an episode of naruto I even made the comparison and it is exactly the same so in my opinion it is a shared sound effect

[@Austar7]

Doesn't sound weird to me. I think it really adds to the jungle ambience.

[@mystikgleam9541]

5 year old me did too

[@ianb.2575]

It spooked me as a kid

[@DillonMorton-l9i]

This reminds me one summer after junior year or senior year where this was playing in my head when I woke up. Over a decade ago...about the times I paused the game just to listen to this track, which was about almost two decades ago!! Felt so sanguine

[@quanahlecornu478]

This is the song i remember for DK games. I played 64 on 64 and country on GB. But melee on GC is how i listened to lots of nintendo classics. They included the music as a prestige trophy and that was killer. I used to just scroll the lore pages trophies and what not.

[@johntownsel620]

When I was a kid, I loved this song so much I use to pause the game mid fight just to vibe out and possibly fall asleep 😴 good times

[@ghostofyuanman4232]

this is my favorite rendition of the song besides the original

[@teejm1ck78]

1:46 best part of the whole track.

[@hithekuan]

Someday will be played in a jazz ensemble

[@acolite2341]

That mid section is THE sound of the jungle, ancient and imposing

[@xAbsolution1]

I always thought the slow part (King of Cling, if you will) was arranged really well for this track

[@primalrampager9178]

Man every time I hear this, I smile to my memories of the good days with the GameCube.

[@acgaming1932]

2:40 I really like the elephant noises

[@sp82629]

0:54 that part always stuck with me ever since i was a child, not sure why

[@Randomness17567]

Same here 😎!

[@OjaySynthson]

I came here looking for inspiration on a new song, the chill part makes me feel bittersweet and calmness that I just enjoy. It's like getting on the top of the mountain and finding nothing but chill, then you realize nothing should be that calm and something bad is going to happen, idk.

[@sejdric]

Good God I want to see this done in a live performance

[@deathblowringo4168]

I quite remember watching a Lv.9 CPU Roy self destruct many times in this stage on melee.

[@acgaming1932]

1:34 - 2:46 Is the best part of the song

[@GeekOnTheRun519]

If they make another King Kong movie, this should be used in it.

[@Merlínmab]

a mi me pasa lo mismo con Donkey Kong Country (tanto el 1 como el 2) pero esta melodia la tengo grabada a fuego en la mente desde 1994 , y solo es 1 de entre muchas + . Por ejemplo la que me emocionó y me enamoró con tan solo 5 añitos no fué esta sino ambiente acuatico (DKC1) y despues le siguió Stickerbrush simphony del 2 esas 2 para mi son sagradas, pero como e dicho antes despues vinieron muchas + ....... vida en las minas (DKC1) Hot head bop (DKC2) en fin la lista es eterna..... Territorio de Kannon...... Tema principal de Killer instinct ,en fin muchas.

[@SoulReaperSlayer19]

Even though I’ve always preferred Mario, DK Country will always hold a special spot for me..

[@GamerKid64]

0:02 *B O N G*

[@somethingsomething7903]

1:34-2:45 is what DK listens to sleep

[@KingKamor2]

They should have used this tune in the Super Mario Movie. It was right there, free for the using. They even could have cleaned it up and made it even punchier than ever! Which moron chose to use Take On Me instead of this when introducing a goddamn jungle kingdom?

[@RazorBean]

Best version of this song

[@mrwaldoful]

what a wonderful piece of music

[@infinitoknight6577]

5:04 Luigi?

[@elijahnorris6760]

WHAT I didn’t notice until now

[@rotundmonibuv5103]

Also at 5:09

[@lennoxqnlee]

1:56

[@OneAndOnlyDanky]

2:39 is that a Yoshi noise? I swear I hear it but maybe it some animal

[@rotundmonibuv5103]

Pretty sure it's supposed to be an elephant.

[@wpower7435]

This doesn't sound like Yoshi at all that's literally the sound of an elephant

[@OneAndOnlyDanky]

@@wpower7435 not the elephant the sound in the background

[@wpower7435]

@@OneAndOnlyDanky 2:39 Yeah I've listened it is not Yoshi I hear an elephant in the background instead

[@thelostmessenger]

Man, this comment section is really empty.....

Hello

[@lennoxqnlee]

2:18

[@dr.kinderman5290]

Groovy

[@WcCMiQwFkeGTSQu]

Part two in G minor key slightly reminded me of one Michael Jackson's song long years ago.

[@AOKZMan]

Mario Movie spoiler (ish) could've used this in the mario movie during the initial kart scene I stg

[@yoshicake]

the take on me one?

[@AOKZMan]

@@yoshicake yeah exactly

[@ChathumDisanayaka]

This Song Is Jazz Of The 30s at 70s and Jungle Of Caribbean And South America

[@UglyBarnical58]
