@@VVM2025 Both can be a leitmotif, since they're both called back to in various pieces, which effectively invokes the original piece's associations within another song's context.
Gusty Garden Galaxy in reality is a random not too special level from the tail end of the game. It serves no large story or gameplay purpose. It’s not the triumphant end of the game, nor the climax or beginning, it’s just a plant level. Yet it’s melody existing even in the same game’s credits is proof that Nintendo knew even before we did that this would become one of the most beloved pieces of videogame music in existence
The Buoy Base Galaxy theme is similar in that it's an amazing piece of music that is confined, in its original game, to a largely insignificant level. Unfortunately, that level is even shorter than Gusty Garden Galaxy, with only one full star and one green star to get. Also, the Buoy Base theme does not get NEARLY the same level of love as GGG's theme.
@irishjet2687 very true. I so agree with you on bouy base, and there is an underwater variation that's not as good but still there only in the water of bouy base
There's this thing, when Gusty Garden got composed, I think the music team just knew what they created, a beautiful musical phrase, that since that day became as iconic as the original Mario Bros theme. This theme, this track, it's by now a day, even more iconic and known that the Galaxy Games.
The funny part is, composer Mahito Yokota was basically forced to write music like this after his boss, Koji Kondo, pulled rank. He absolutely would've preferred working with samples instead, and felt Mario music should lean into its latin, bossanova roots. But Kondo got in Miyamoto's ear and insisted the music needed to be orchestrated, and the rest is history.
@@siphillis I don’t know why Kondo pulled rank but my theory is that he saw Uematsu compose the theme for SSB Brawl and needed to top it for a mainline Mario game.
Honestly I never expected Gusty Garden to be remixed this much. Like when I first played Galaxy I remember it was one of my least favourite galaxies solely because of the boss but now it’s probably in my top ten
@@DerpSandwich_1 I wish… unfortunately it’s not happening… Galaxy 2 released over 13 years ago, they’re not making another Galaxy game, at the very least not in the near future…
I heard the Gusty Garden Galaxy motif when I was about to walk out of the theatres after the Mario Movie with my boyfriend and as soon as I heard the first three notes I rushed back in to hear it all since we weren't fully out of the room yet.
I was so pleasantly surprised to hear it in the movie. Regardless of the actual plot of the movie, all the references were really a love letter to long time fans
Galaxy is the most amazing game I've ever played. The soundtrack is amazing (tied only with Undertale's), the levels are amazing, the optional story is amazing, the visuals are amazing, everything about it is just amazing. Which is why Super Mario Galaxy will continue to be my favorite game, despite how old it is.
Hearing the Gusty Garden motif during the movie credits gave me the biggest smile, I wasn’t expecting it! Hell, hearing Gusty Garden in a theatre? Awesome. Also, the Thundercloud Frontrunner for Cloudtop sounds like a modern Mario song in modern Sonic’s style, especially with the electric just absolutely killing the theme! If the two ever do a full-on open world puzzler crossover game, that’s _definitely_ playing in a level.
Gusty Garden Galaxy's buildup to it's 3 highpoints, lowering, and then reaching a high point once more in its tone is so incredibly euphoric and breathtaking.
I actually bought Mario Galaxy during quarantine and also when my town had a massive hurricane that knocked out power for 13 days around July and August of 2020 and the minute the power went on I finished Galaxy so it has a incredibly nostalgic edge to it and gusty garden is one of the major reasons for that
In Louisiana? We were in Metairie for that hurricane, and we thought the power was going to be out for 3 months because of that tower falling in the river until they found a workaround.
idk if i would describe the theme as 'ruined' or 'improved' for me but ever since i saw peanutbuttergamer's video about hacking super mario galaxy literally EVERYTIME i hear this theme my brain automatically adds his lyrics to it and i am forced to think about luigi being sexy
You're not alone bud, everytime this part hits I automatically go "Luigi, I just want to touch you-" Like damn, it sticks even after many years of that vid. XD
I remember crying when I saw this part of the credits in the theatres. Galaxy was my favorite Mario game and I spent hours playing it over and over again before my life went to shit and reminded me of my childhood
Many people use the expression "better than sex" for a bunch of random and mediocre things, but the truth is, this leitmotif is the only thing deserving of that qualification.
Gusty Garden Galaxy is probably the greatest individual music track in the history of video games. It's got the uplifting tone with beautiful orchestration, and it's quickly becoming insanely iconic. Just more proof that Super Mario Galaxy is a timeless masterpiece.
Looking at this video now has caused me to collect a bunch of memories of times where I went, "That's Gusty Garden Galaxy!" and nobody cared. I didn't realize it was SO MANY TIMES.
I watched the Mario Movie in the IMAX theater five times in the month it was out, and every time, I couldn't help but cry hearing Gusty Garden's theme during the credits! It was so impactful in IMAX since the surround sound was so immersive! Mario Galaxy is my favorite game ever! Hearing Gusty Garden Galaxy makes me smile! Glad I stuck around during the credits, because I did not wanna leave behind any Mario fun! Even though most of Galaxy's music didn't make it into the movie, I'm glad Gusty Garden made its way into it! Brian Tyler knew exactly what he was doing: He wanted to drive us Galaxy nerds down memory lane with this! Gusty Garden isn't just a Mario theme that will be remembered from the late 2000s, but for a lifetime!
Niiice, I love this thing I wasn't even aware that the Yoshi variation existed, thanks for including it Interesting how they revisited the track and added drums to it just for the sake of one Yoshi section in one level
What is it about this particular portion of the Gusty Galaxy theme that makes it sound so … magical? Idk, even as a little kid I got super hype every time I heard that part of the song in a different level’s music. Why? What effect are those very particular set of musical notes having on the chemistry of our brain? I want like, an empirical study on this .
My fav one is the end credits one, that one always makes me tear up, and it certainly is the most nostalgic for me, I actually spent 7 years trying to finish the game, so it makes it even better
The very fact that this was a leitmotif since the very first game this song was in proves that Nintendo knew they created a masterpiece of a song before even releasing the game
Incredible, majestic music. It gives that kind of hope, bright feeling. One of my all time faves, I listen to it whenever going somewhere or just with exercise.
Pretty solid list, if you ever redo it, though, Good Egg* Galaxy features this part, and they also snuck it into Mario Kart Wii’s Rainbow Road just over 20 seconds in on the strings in the background.
I mean the piece is technically called egg planet and not good egg but who cares lol good egg is a better name. Anyways ima get back to enjoying gusty :) 🐧
They must've known back then when Mario Galaxy hit store shelves in the late 2000s that this theme would become not just synonymous with Mario, but also with the vastness of space and one's own trials and tribulations in a Mario game. Not only did it transcend Super Mario Galaxy, becoming a part of Super Mario Galaxy 2's main theme, but also coming back for the hardest challenge of that game. And the games that came after. They must have known they struck gold back then. They must've known. Something about it just breaks Mario Fans in a way no other piece does. It's filled with joy, excitement, satisfaction, passion... It's truly something beautiful. Something so precious and borderline perfect that that even when they try to put as many spins on it as possible, it's still perfectly recognizable. You can just tell, "It's Gusty Garden Galaxy!" And you just can't get enough of it, can you? I know I can't. RUclips knows I can't.
i'll never be able to listen to this without a smile on my face and getting shivers at this iconic part. Mario galaxy has been such a big part of my childhood and this theme is just MWAH i love it
its unbealivable that 1! song can be loved so mutch that its able to be used again over and over again and still sound just as amazing as it alwais did
Well composed??? He didn’t compose it. And it has no countermelodies or rhythms. It’s one of the plainest versions of the motif. People are confusing it as some great rendition of it simply becuase it was in the movie. The original and what was in Galaxy 2 are far better and fuller versions.
@@gregoryballinger3455 Brian Tyler composed the Level Complete version. And it was a good rendition, he didn't copy and paste it. He used the same motifs, but made a different version of it. And I respect if you was Galaxy 2 is better, that's your opinion.
My favorite renditions have to be, in not an actual ranking: 1. The original 2. Champion’s road 3. Mario Kart 8 (Front running) + Thundercloud 4. Mario Movie (Level Complete) 5. Purple coin comet
This video alone is a proof that this is one of Nintendo's best musical pieces ever composed to the point they reused it from how good it is. This is a masterpiece
The frigging drums that Sega added in the Mario and Sonic version of the song is everything to me. It changes the song from one of those songs that sounds really good but i never really think about, to a song that i could listen to for years into the future.
I will never get tired of Gusty Garden’s theme in Mario games or movies or anything, it’s the most beautiful piece of music in gaming I’ve ever heard and glad Nintendo shows it this much love
I went to the teather with my mom and my sister to see the movie, we are fans of Mario Bros Our first videogame was "Super Mario bros" so we loved the movie My mother teared when she listened the remix of super mario bros soundtrack My sister teared when Mario was about to lose against bowser But me when i hear the gusty garden remix and the special thanks to Satoru Iwata i couldn't control my tears
When me and my friend watched the movie and we we’re staying through the credits, when I heard Gusty Garden Galaxy my body was shook because it was our first time watching it I almost wanted to cry bro
I nearly cried when it played in the credits of the movie. There were so many little children in that screening because it's a kids' movie and most of them have probably played Mario on the Switch. But that moment, that was for me. And all the other 21+ year olds who were little kids during the wii's lifespan and could've only dreamed of seeing a movie like that.
This is one of the few piece of musics that I heard probably a thousand times but still never gets bored of it. Especially the Mario Kart 8 Cloudtop Cruise Remix is just a masterpiece.
Its a miracle Nintendo loves this song as much as we do
"Love"
They just want the money for us nerdy virgins that love that song
How is this a miracle? No shit they like it, it sounds good.
I don't love it

Like so many themes before it.

And you just can't get enough of it, can you? I know I can't. RUclips knows I can't.
With how much love gusty garden’s theme gets, the actual level needs more love.
Gusty garden galaxy as an actual mario stage is very mid tbh
Gusty Garden Music: 👌😔
Gusty Garden Stage: 💀
Good thing Grandmaster Galaxy and Champion’s Road both gave the theme the proper respect it deserved.
Good Egg Galaxy is better from a level standpoint.
Person: Why do you like Cloudtop Cruise so much?
Me: Rock version of Gusty Garden
At this point I’m just convinced this isn’t just gusty garden’s motif but just- Galaxy’s motif as a whole cuz it’s prevalent in a lot of its songs!
i'll never be able to listen to this without a smile on my face and getting shivers at this iconic part. Mario galaxy has been such a big part of my childhood and this theme is just MWAH i love it
when it hits in Galaxy 1s credits its just different. goosebumps every time.
1:55 When you're behind 7-0 in a baseball game and you put this music in front of you teammates: 8-7
This proves that Gusty Garden is the unofficial Mario theme
It's probably Nintendo theme as well
its unbealivable that 1! song can be loved so mutch that its able to be used again over and over again and still sound just as amazing as it alwais did
it's also in Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games London 2011. Well, at least I think so. Hopefully I'm not wrong at this one
2012
@@generalcrab0009 ah yes, you're right!
It's the same version as Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games.
holy shit i just now realized after playing this kid for my entire childhood that the purple comet theme had ggg theme in it lol
The Level Complete Version is so well composed and brings a lot of nostalgia in only a few motifs. Props to Brian Tyler!
Well composed??? He didn’t compose it. And it has no countermelodies or rhythms. It’s one of the plainest versions of the motif. People are confusing it as some great rendition of it simply becuase it was in the movie. The original and what was in Galaxy 2 are far better and fuller versions.
@@gregoryballinger3455 Brian Tyler composed the Level Complete version. And it was a good rendition, he didn't copy and paste it. He used the same motifs, but made a different version of it.
And I respect if you was Galaxy 2 is better, that's your opinion.
I find it amazing that Nintendo had to compose a Yoshi version because it plays during 2 minutes of gameplay of the second game.
Gusty Garden Galaxy has been and always will be Super Mario Galaxy's most iconic theme
the kirby's triumphant return of mario
Huh, no yeah that checks out
My favorite renditions have to be, in not an actual ranking:
1. The original
2. Champion’s road
3. Mario Kart 8 (Front running) + Thundercloud
4. Mario Movie (Level Complete)
5. Purple coin comet
This video alone is a proof that this is one of Nintendo's best musical pieces ever composed to the point they reused it from how good it is. This is a masterpiece
The frigging drums that Sega added in the Mario and Sonic version of the song is everything to me. It changes the song from one of those songs that sounds really good but i never really think about, to a song that i could listen to for years into the future.
While the drums are good, the VST instruments are big downgrade and unfortunately drag the song down overall.
I'm really happy that they put in the in the credits from the Movie, they actually pay attention to us with our favorites!
mario galaxy was my first ever videogame and my favorite, so i love all the versions of this theme, but my favorite is the galaxy 2 credits iteration
I will never get tired of Gusty Garden’s theme in Mario games or movies or anything, it’s the most beautiful piece of music in gaming I’ve ever heard and glad Nintendo shows it this much love
This truly is the best video game I have ever seen. Incredible
I think you missed the ones on Good Egg galaxy and Mario Kart Wii rainbow road. Nice video.
TIL that Cloudtop Cruise has 4 different remixes of Gusty Garden Galaxy
I thought there was only one LMAO
You forgot Good Egg Galaxy, it also has the same motif as Gusty Garden
I cried when I heard this part in the movie :,) I love this part. 0:23
i cant believe you actually reuploaded this vid.. damn the dedication is insane
Despite after 100% Mario galaxy 1, this makes me wanna play it back
you should play galaxy 2, harder levels
9:01 - 9:13
That sax solo sounds amazing as heck 🔥
Hold up.
Thirteen years, _thirteen,_ and I've *never* stuck around on World S' map long enough to know it had its own GGG rendition?! 😮
They are ridiculously proud of that song.
And they should be, what a banger.
Still love that we all agree that this is the best of gusty garden
3:00 is my favorite one so far, it feels like if Sonic and Mario made a song together, the one after this too.. ahh imagine the endless possibility
This is by far one of my favorite melodies of the series!
I went to the teather with my mom and my sister to see the movie, we are fans of Mario Bros
Our first videogame was "Super Mario bros" so we loved the movie
My mother teared when she listened the remix of super mario bros soundtrack
My sister teared when Mario was about to lose against bowser
But me when i hear the gusty garden remix and the special thanks to Satoru Iwata i couldn't control my tears
When me and my friend watched the movie and we we’re staying through the credits, when I heard Gusty Garden Galaxy my body was shook because it was our first time watching it I almost wanted to cry bro
Same it proves Gusty Garden Galaxy became Nintendo's theme and Mario's unofficial main theme
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe's Cloudtop Cruise (Frontrunning+ Thundercloud) is just Badass...!
I nearly cried when it played in the credits of the movie.
There were so many little children in that screening because it's a kids' movie and most of them have probably played Mario on the Switch. But that moment, that was for me. And all the other 21+ year olds who were little kids during the wii's lifespan and could've only dreamed of seeing a movie like that.
When Gusty Gardens started playing in the movie credits, I started crying
it sounds very heroic and triumphant
basically gusty gardens is the 3d mario equivalent of the original ground theme
Yeah pretty much
Thank you for that beautiful compilation 🔥
This is one of the few piece of musics that I heard probably a thousand times but still never gets bored of it. Especially the Mario Kart 8 Cloudtop Cruise Remix is just a masterpiece.
Based. Especially the electric guitar in the thunderstorm 🌩️
I started to cry.
it's nostalgic to me.
