Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards Music- Above The Clouds

[@FarCritical]

This plays in HAL's elevator!

[@baileybucey6571]

What does HAL stand for?

[@FarCritical]

@@baileybucey6571 Not really anything, but they're the next letter in alphabetical order for each of the letters of the company IBM. You know, to be 'one step ahead' of them in a cheeky way.

[@FarCritical]

@Johnny Tron A big tech corp (IBM) and video games (HAL) aren't two things that are *that* unrelated to each other but I get what you mean

how do you know

[@SewerStudiouz]

I think this is the best version of the Butter Building theme! :)

[@cameronfarley5910]

+Sewer Studiouz I don't know, "Butter Building" from Epic Yarn comes pretty close for me. :) But yeah, this was one of my favorite tracks from Crystal Shards to listen to too.

[@leonyang9421]

+Sewer Studiouz Same its very good i have to say i think its one of the most relaxing and most happiest kirby song i have ever heard :D

[@sora6780]

epic yarn was good too

[@adamsunday4174]

This is the best version of Butter Building!

[@wheeheee2259]

agreed

[@zadonzd8604]

Can't believe this song was in Planet Robobot, an exact rip. The nostalgia hit me like a truck

[@naluslurp]

yes it did, and it was nice

[@adamsunday4174]

Wow... a song from my FAVORITE Kirby game in another one, and an exact rip no less! SOO MUCH NOSTALGIA!!! :')

[@TheVecan]

I feel like this game has one of the most solid soundtracks of any game, it feels so consistent and you can really tell what the song is trying to convey, It's so magical

[@Chaos007X]

Some songs are like fine wine... they only get better with age. I wonder just how nostalgic these songs will be... some ten or twenty years from now? ^^

Love how the title doesn't say "REMIX of Butter Building" but just an other title. It makes the surprise to discover it bigger !

[@AWDfreak]

You know a VGM soundtrack is strong when the moment you hear it, it brings back overwhelming nostalgia despite the fact that you haven't heard it during childhood.

[@polarseizure]

A whole twelve years later. And it pains me to admit that these same players from those years have now invested in games like Call of Duty, Madden, and Halo. This game has the true essence of a video game. You can shoot stuff or play sports all you want in real life. But you'll never be a pink ball who can absorb the abilities of other monsters, flying high on the clouds. Miss you, Kirby. But can't wait to see you on the Wii-U.

[@Dorkdominion]

11 years late, but did you play the new Kirby games? Also I'm a big Kirby fan despite playing a bunch of Fortnite.

[@ohoodalofi4725]

and another 12 years later

[@yoshiponyoschannel6471]

This is a tear-jerker! The nostalgia, the beautiful instrumentation, it's all just SO GOOD! 😭

[@saligonth]

Excellent butter building remix. I absolutely love Kirby 64's soundtrack.

[@Ratclan024]

almost every single song in this game wants to make you cry, brings back memories, or makes you want to start playing this game again

[@ClichedNameFTW]

Ah, what an adorable song. This makes me want to go find my old 64 and play this level again... I love this game. ^^

[@ohoodalofi4725]

i wonder how much you want to find your n64 now

[@mandyb7277]

THIS IS ACTUALLY A BANGER!

[@piggypoo]

this song draws a comforting smile to my face as I reminisce about my childhood.

[@ItsQuesh]

I love this theme. It's like you just want to have a good time.

[@pchound5962]

Song reminds me of Christmas for some reason

[@black3826]

Well, the stage this plays in is a winter wonder land, so that's probably why. (Not to mention it being a post-apocalyptic nuclear winter earth.)

[@luxbledstone]

black3826 ahh so thats how kirby was made by nuclear radiation xD

[@black3826]

lux bledstone Well, not Kirby. The game takes place on several different planets (Named 'stars' for some reason). The 'shiver star', as the planet is named, just so happens to be a pretty winter wonderland of super-high-tech mechas, and looks like a frozen over version of our own little planet. Isn't the thought alone just wonderfull~?

[@luxbledstone]

it is :D this and avalanche and dream course have always been my favorite Kirby games :D

[@NightbaneGames]

black3826 If it's Earth, it wouldn't be snowy, it'd be full of dust.... *Get it?*

[@guybrush20X6]

I always imagaine Kirby whistling this to himself when he's flying on his warpstar.

[@francobal107]

Years after having stopped playing kirby 64 I played nightmare in dreamland and heard butter building. I did not know why it was so familiar until I re-listened to this one. Ahh... those times.

[@sallas09]

Based on my experiences, I have found that you can best appreciate something like a game or its music only when you pick it up again after an extended period of time. Like with this song; when I reached this point in the game on my second playthrough, I felt that since I recognized the music track, I got as better, nostalgic if you will, feeling for the game and its greatness.

[@andymcclurg9916]

Wish I grew up with this, what a bop

[@andreasjansen7835]

How to not get happy when hearing this 😍 Thats right ☝️ it's immpossible 😄

[@OurHereafter]

This is also the song that plays in SSBM intro when zelda looks up and sees kirby in the sky

[@lordpsi99]

Ohhh, you're right! nice find!

[@furonet138]

[@perryperez]

Sick Rhymes Oh yeah, I hear it! At 00:20!

[@NintenJoeGamer]

It sounds completely different.... Lol

[@KingOfStrapFanboy922]

its an orchestrated version of this song. at 00:20

[@Pochoa6415]

Has anyone else whistled to this song? :] Everytime I played this level, I would whistle. I'm whistling to it right now as I'm typing this!

[@francobal107]

I played Crystal shards when I was 7 years old, and loved this level. I played Nightmare in dreamland when I was 15, and somehow the butter building tune seemed familiar, easy to sing along, like I already knew it. NOW I KNOW WHY.

[@TheAngryDango]

DAMN RIGHT NO DISLIKES LETS KEEP IT LIKE THAT! One of the best songs in the game!

[@BlackHarpy]

Wow... i always loved this song, it was my favorite song of this great game =D i'm so glad i can hear it again... Thanks for uploading !!

[@callmeLilSparky]

Thank you Nintendo and Halberd for giving me an awesome childhood... I want it back =(

[@emme0731]

By far, this is my favorite Kirby game :3

[@MeStirRyanYTP]

I Can't Believe It's Not Butter Building

[@NightbaneGames]

I play this music when I'm calm.

[@BrazillianKid1]

Yo, it's crazy how I remember playin this as a kid when I hear the music..

[@ohoodalofi4725]

do you remember now?

[@DragonWarrior7771]

@Twintaileddragon Yes!! We did!! Me and my sister made some lyrics to this song. Our lyrics were about "jumping over a string" , you know, like jump rope. This song is so nostalgic, I seriously miss those Saturday mornings when me and my sister would play this game. But time has drifted us apart, now she almost never plays video games. Only texting..... :(

[@TheNatkidd]

Geez, either I didn't focus or forget the song's of this game. They're freaking something! A nice style of this tune from the older Kirby video game's, I'm glad I was re playing the game recently to accomplish getting it 100%. (Which I did, super nice!! :))

[@ErroneousNickname]

Thank you Mrs Frizzle, you taught me a valuable lesson and I never even had to ride your bus

[@YoshiHasSwagger]

This song sounds so Kirby-ish. Like this is the song I think of when I think of Kirby

I loved how this game brought up the Butter Buildings theme in that level!

It's called Shooting Through The Sky, right? That one?

[@netako]

ToxicJared Nope, it's still "Above the clouds".

[@Dinodan3]

In this day and age, we have games that simulate war through the eyes of a soldier, or through the eyes of a general. We can even fight our way through massive waves of zombies or save the country from terrorists single-handed, and all in glories HD graphics. And they may be fun and all, but that's all they are. It's games like THIS, Kirby 64, are the ones that last forever. It reminds us that we were all kids once, and didn't need guns or graphics to have fun. That is what I call a masterpiece.

[@v4r0]

it's a very sad thing that the kids of this and the next generations will never have the kind of games that whe used to had.

[@AnimalPuff]

This is gonna sound very stupid, but about 20 seconds in, I suddenly realized this is a remix of Butter Building. I've played this game multiple times after I heard that song and I never even figured that out, but now this knowledge has made me very stoked indeed.
