I recorded the gameplay from the Mario Kart 7 version of the track :]

[@SmoothMcGroove]

I recorded the footage from the Mario Kart 7 version of this track on my 3DS, though it did originate on the 64. Same track, same song!

[@OmegaBlade32]

Could you do a song from Actraiser?

[@SmoothMcGroove]

Same track, same song, newer version :]

[@TDBoltSSBM]

Please do Simon's Theme from Super Castlevania 4!

[@Fightgameross]

Smooth McGroove Smooth, i guessed the song on your twitter before it came out, i think i deserve some kind of prize.

[@horokeusensei]

Hey, what software did you use to record the 3ds version?

[@SuperCrippledGamer]

Not only are these REALLY well done. But I noticed that you smile a lot when recording these. Not to mention you bob your head up and down. It really shows that you enjoy doing this. You sir have my upmost respect. Keep on rockin' :D

[@SmoothMcGroove]

Thanks!

[@TheOwnersOfTriforce]

No kidding! He even looks like the nicest guy in the world :p

[@evandouville8935]

TheOwnersOfTriforce duh he looks like jesus

[@SuperCrippledGamer]

***** First off, this comment is a year and a half OLD. Second off, was your sarcasm necessary? I was legitimately complimenting him. Don't try to cause drama in a positive moment. -______-

[@thomas_tk330]

+Crippled Gamer don't be so serious about youtube's comment section

[@shizennoshi7783]

0:57 Lightning ruins everything AS USUAL.

[@Jonah871]

Yep who else wants the lightning to be banned from the series

[@JackHeadphonius]

Shizennoshi Need we even mention the blue shell seconds after?

[@Jonah871]

Oh yeah like in mario kart 8 when you have the super horn and you know a blue shell is coming then its ruined by lightning and then you cant use it

[@frurryhalle]

@@Jonah871or when you get a super horn, after you already been hit, never get it when you actually need it

[@Exoticmuffinjuice]

I always used to get struck by lightning right their

[@ericnoonecares1989]

I respected and admired Smooth Mcgroove even more after watching this video, he slapped himself in the beard for over three minutes with that look on his face just so some people on the internet could have a sense of nostalgia. The internet thanks you Smooth Mcgroove!

[@Xqrement]

I already like this version way more than the original. This one is so damn dynamic it's amazing.

[@ghostsade3]

Yeah this is definitely better.

[@nath89w]

Setting this as my alarm ringtone!

[@chickeesamson6310]

That would definitely assure the day to be filled with happiness & JOY *0*

[@matthopkins2024]

This is so beautiful. The melody forces me to imagine myself hanging out on a shore with friends at sunset. Once the music gets to the key change, I then imagine myself laying on my back in the water relaxing. It's such a beautiful conscious bounding piece. Good job Smooth Mcgroove. You are gifted man, keep doing what you're doing with these acapella covers. Don't let anyone discourage you.

[@TheBeatboxHitmanTwo]

Dang man I'm going to end up listening to your videos all day beatboxing to them xD smooth as butter. Glad I found you through Oneyng :)

[@Neo2000gaming]

record it I would love to hear it with some beatboxing!!

[@TheBeatboxHitmanTwo]

VvTaranvV Just did it. I put it on my channel hope you enjoy. :)

[@danielburleson563]

Oneyng?

[@Sephiroth1204]

Aside from the singing itself which is truly amazing, I love the little touches you put into each video track, making faces at the camera, bringing the cat in, etc. Makes it that much more fun to watch.

[@STN_MN]

Dude!! This is my favorite track from Mario Kart 64! I don't know why I thought you couldn't pull this one off, but you made it sound BETTER. Thanks, Smooth!

[@ashwalk85]

my head melted when I was half watching the gameplay thinking it was my childhood memory's MK64 and suddenly the kart's wheels were mushrooms

[@adrianthomas4163]

My favorite one so far. I've replayed this one the most.

[@TheGameYanks]

Nintendo should release Koopa Troopa Beach as dlc in Mario Kart 8 and use Smooth's song version instead of the original. XD GREAT JOB!!!

[@Bro-cx2jc]

Hell yeah sometimes it almost doesnt even sound like a human voice but actual instruments :D

[@SeyMe2]

Kronie yeah.. That's cus it is not his natural voice o_o

[@cdrool2221]

Ha definitely, I guess u could do that with the live circuit on your own

My favourite video game music of all time and now you did it! Thank you so much! Your take on it sounds so amazing!

[@lumas825]

It seems like 1.25x speed on Smooth's acapellas sound close to the final lap version for Mario Kart races.

[@AllisimaProductions]

Dude, you SHOULD TOTALLY do the credits theme from Mario Kart 64.

[@titostacos128]

or the super smash bros "choose your character" song

[@Demonskunk]

We need to find a way to turn you into a sound chip for a retro-system. I love the sound of these!

[@SeafoamSmiles]

Them cheeks must be sore.

[@SmoothMcGroove]

They were a bit sore after a few takes, yeah.

[@SeafoamSmiles]

Haha, I wasn't really expecting any sort of response to that. Not exactly one of my most constructive comments. I was just hoping someone might get a laugh out of it.

[@hylar]

Another incredible track. Thank you Smooth, these always make me smile!

[@whothinksforme]

By far one of your best. Harmonies, percussion, etc!

[@SuperGamer87]

Thanks, Smooth McGroove! You always put a smile on my face.

[@GoldenMushroom64]

Can't believe all your siblings are ok with doing all these videos.

[@ianman1980]

Expertly done, as always. Thanks for all your hard work.

[@Genresx]

Love the attention to detail. Great job as always!

[@Ideabot_69]

I was having a really shitty day but this was in my Subscription box and it really cheered me up. Thanks Smooth McGroove!

[@Vector3Gaming]

Dat whistle

[@bloodseer03]

oh man i love that you did this!! such a great tune

[@SkipToGame]

Been sick all day, and had a bad day at work. I came home, put this on and instantly got a smile on my face. Thanks, Smooth!

[@vodorf]

Nothing like listening to Smooth Mcgroove in class while doing homework.

[@SurgingSpecs]

I listened to this while studying for my global history midterm

[@TheRealMake-Make]

I don't play video games and wouldn't have a clue where any of this music came from if you didn't specify. However, I love good music and have been jamming along to your acapella playlist as I do my homework. Thanks for posting!

[@ajfrommillay1508]

Conversely, I love video games and acapella isn't a style of music I actually like. But Smooth McGroove is so good at this and I actually like his acapella, probably just because it's video game covers, LOL but still it's a joy to listen to. :)

[@brandong4576]

The only KZbin subscription where I watch each video. Thank you for this!!

[@Pelthail]

Thanks man, this is probably one of my favorite tracks yet! Such a good composition.

[@JasontheMasonable]

I can't believe how amazing this sounded on the n64!

[@AYOOMAA1234]

Dude. The memories. I love your channel and the emotions it brings out of me!

[@TheHiddencrusader]

Thank you for being awesome and spending your free time to do something like this to share with the world! You are making it a better place for nerds everywhere!

[@markfowlermusic]

Where's the cat

[@garance201]

At 0:47 :)

[@ProjectXv2]

God dangit, Smooth! I'm spending so much money on replacement minds because you keep blowing them all! Also it's kinda funny how everyone's looking for your cat in every video... :P

[@steveafanador6441]

This is awesome. Sounds perfect all the little details are there 👍

[@D.3.Z]

This probably my fav one....I kept coming back to this one....Hope you make more McGroove....awesome man

[@ButteredToast32]

Bottom right corner Smooth looks like he's stuck in an endless cycle of applying aftershave to his face.

[@AfterHourComedy]

This is actually better then the original song...

[@jemenitrekker8234]

haha the bottom right one of him must have had a nice workout XP

[@23petals]

I feel this way about most of his acapellas :)

[@Kokuei7]

Your videos and and covets always make me so happy!

[@Doctormario4600]

Brilliant job as always. One of my favourite Mario Kart themes

[@Xgil2Play]

For those people who are saying 'This footage is not even from the Nintendo 64 version'. Have ever occurred to you that he may not own a N64 console? I don't think it did.

[@OriginalBloodAce]

How does one record the N64 anyway lol?

[@OriginalBloodAce]

***** Thought so. I don't support emulators so meh.

[@TheKyshu]

OriginalBloodAce You'd use a capture card! Like the Hauppauge HD PVR or (price-wise probably more suitable for SD footage) the Dazzle!

[@OriginalBloodAce]

***** I have a capture card, but the N64 has no HDMI port lol.

[@TheKyshu]

You'll need a capture card that supports any input that the N64 outputs, ie. SCART or RGB, ... For example the Dazzle :)

[@Tachin1994]

Now, this is amazing

[@ShallowPocketDesigns]

So happy you did this one!! Makes me feel like a kid again!

[@aldariel744]

listening to this makes me so happy! Thanks Smooth!

[@TheGreatGYROFLUFF]

You're face is a magnificent instrument.

[@MALICEDOLL79]

Masterpiece

[@DrShnure]

Oh my gosh this is amazing as usual!

[@thatvideogamesshow]

So smooth, love this!

[@legofan431]

you have such an amazing voice

[@TheRosenPlums]

Who cares if the video is of Mario Kart 7? It sounds awesome nontheless. Thanks for doing this, one of my favourite MK Soundtracks!

[@Laitharex]

Great job on this! I, for one, appreciate the effort that you put into your videos. Thank you!

[@jerryone3]

The best one you did in a while ! I highly prefer this kind of great tempo !

Best. Beach. Theme. Ever.

[@Tongue2Flagpole25]

Freya's or Vivi's theme from Final Fantasy IX!

[@wavrmusic]

Absolutely amazing!!! Dude you have my upmost respect!!! Keep up the amazing work!!!

[@TheAuraKnight07]

The moment I heard this my nostalgia hit me hard as I remembered playing this when I was 5. You're amazing, Smooth.

[@Barnacules]

I literally listen to your play list all day when I'm at work coding. #nohomo

[@kikker_g2747]

why the #nohomo ? Just because you listen to some dude's playlist doesn't mean you're gay

[@plipogamez3173]

Just #BorLovin' ?

[@LeviathanRX]

[@DickWad16]

I really enjoy that you enjoy doing this.

[@strongbadable]

Great job man, that was awesome !!

[@an0malyops59]

[@TheMonkeySage]

How do you not know Mario Kart? >-

[@HankusTheTankus333]

Satoru Iwata it's implied though

[@BarbecueGamer]

HankusTheTankus333 He pointed out that he always views his videos, even if he doesn't know the game. He did NOT say that this is one of those times where he doesn't know the game. It's all there, black & white, clear as crystal.

[@MrMillionDub]

BarbecueGamer You stole Fizzy Lifting Drinks! You bumped into the ceiling which now has to be washed and sterilized, so you get NOTHING! YOU LOSE! GOOD DAY, SIR!

[@BarbecueGamer]

C Dub Haha! That's great! You made my day.

[@lolloo92]

This is so relaxing, love it!
