♫ My yellow guitar was built by Evan Kingma! www.evankingmaguitars.com --- Upgrade your axe!
This tune is basically the same as Slide. It's one of the coolest tracks from Mario 64. Do you get it? Cool? Watch me SLIDE my fingers all around the fretboard to produce all the required notes for it to be the song: Cool Cool Mountain from Mario 64. A game for the Nintendo 64!
If you want more video game covers and original compositions on the classical guitar like this one, TABS, and general acoustic remix shredding, this is the place spot for all your video game guitar covers needs. Smack a sub. Smack a bell. Smack yourself.

I think Sam Griffin is the only person who can simultaneously make me extremely impressed and want to give up on guitar while wearing a penguin suit
I don't think there are too many people that fit the description so you may be onto something Mr. Mason
Tbh I am nowhere near that skill level but this guy is a major inspiration to keep pushing with classical guitar.
Nt to mention make you feel fifteen years younger as well...
never give up! no one needs to be a prog god at guitar, just have fun :)
@@rubencollegeabq Ah, I wasn't being serious haha. I'm actually in the middle of making an album, and Sam was one of the people who inspired me to play in the first place years ago
What makes this so incredible is it sounds like 2-3 different guitars.....sounds amazing
It never even crossed my mind that this theme could be played on just one guitar. What a feat! You really can play anything on guitar. Congratulations Sam!
Alot of songs can, just takes practice to play both rhythm and lead.
Agreed though, this is phenomenal
Thanks for bringing back memories of Mario throwing that baby penguin off the cliff
I used to love sliding down the mountain and kamkazaiing off the map with the lil penguin
why did we all do this?!
@@turtlebeef We all didn't. I didn't. All y'all sociopaths did :(
Maaahh
@@turtlebeef That's a good question. Lol
I'm so deeply confused at the sheer dichotomy of watching a grown man in a penguin bag playing guitar like an absolute god.
A penguin bag 😆
i love how this is not a penguin suit or a penguin costume but instead a penguin b a g
I don't see how that's a dichotomy of anything. How you dress and how you play guitar have nothing to do with each other.
I mean, it’s pretty much exactly what I picture when I picture god
I’m confused by the word dichotomy
Koji Kondo is a genius. Very underrated as a song writer. He's a legend.
The 64 was made by gods
I don’t think you know what underrated means
@@Sk801Erik I don’t think you understand that the only people that know about Kondo are gamers that do not influence the music world in any sort of way.
@@raiylab that doesn’t mean he’s underrated. Literally the most known video game composer. Even your old ass parents know the Mario song.
@@raiylab Kondo is the most respected composer in his field, dude. That's as anti-underrated as it gets. Just because average people don't know who Howard Shore is doesn't mean he's not a highly respected composer and known in his field as one of the greats. Anyone who knows anything about great film composition knows who he is, thus he's not underrated, and far more people know who Kondo is than Howard Shore, and Shore's not underrated. Kondo is the number one superstar of video game composition. He's not even remotely underrated, and just because the ignorant masses don't know him doesn't mean he is.
holy shit this is an impressive arrangement. you got the bass motion, melody, countermelody, and accompaniment all with just 2 hands and 6 strings
YAHOOOOO! YIPPIEEEE!!
Dude, sick! The bass motion is crazy. Some of my favorite work of yours yet.
Basically, I think the CCM Theme and the Slide Theme have the same melody.
You have so much control. Every time I see your videos I can't imagine taking the time to transcribe this to guitar. Super cool stuff man 😎
That’s mad impressive, especially those repeated notes 🤯
tremelo 🤌
1:53 Pablo from the backyardigans? It all makes sense now
You’re a magnificent player and musician. Going through a hard time in my life right now and your videos mske me happy.
There were no penguins being thrown into the void, 0/10.
Guitar playing, 10/10.
Penguin shuffling and swoon-inducing talk, 10/10.
Merry Christmas🎄
This makes up for the years of misery I’d feel every time I’d drop that damn penguin.
good job penguin man now lets collect mushrooms in the forest of old
There are some amazingly talented guitar players here in the comments, singing praises about how amazingly talented you are. The penguin suit can't shed an ounce of respect for what an incredible instrument the guitar can be in the right flippers.
I don’t care what anyone says, the phrasing that Sam gives to the base notes and melodic lines of all his covers blows past stuff like classical dragon for me. Shredding is cool, but I keep coming back to this stuff.
I can hear the jingle bells in my head while listening to this...incredible arrangement!
that was crazy, great job! I don't know if you've ever seen tom brier's performance of this? He sightreads it on piano! It's amazing!
Tom is amazing, it’s so sad what happened to him.
Tom is amazing. What happen to Tom?
@@Tightgarbage Car accident :(
This thing is wildly underrated. Just amazing.
Good guitar playing too.
Favorite people in penguin costumes.
1. Sam Griffin
2. Danny DeVito
Love Mario. Merry Christmas! 🎄
Wow, this interpretation of the song is unbelievably complex and impressive!!!
Just gotta nonchalantly throw in tremolo picking in that B section 😤 😂amazing job per usual, Sam!!
The return of the king 👑👑👑
Edit: wow that tremolo was insane, nice touch.
I love him too, but i also love you Josh. You guys inspire me.
@@Guiterminator ty brotha, much love
Jesus gonna come back and you’re gonna be humbled to your knees in shock and horror unless you die first. God bless though!
I didnt notice the penguin suit til about 50 seconds in
Definitely come out with a longer version of that
Left hand is like a spider playing Twister. The right is a spider who just won the lottery. Really well done, friend, and funny as the dickens. Merry Christmas.
Absolutely unmatched skill level. This was a holiday treat! Thanks for the good, festive vibes, Penguin Prodigy!
You are such a ridiculous guitar player. Watching your left hand fly around the fretboard and still hitting the cleanest tone. Incredible stuff. What a cover, Sam.
This triggers memories of how infuriatingly difficult this level was for 6-year-old me. I remember getting so fed up from falling off the level doing tedious tasks that I chucked the baby penguin off the mountain a few times.
Wow.. this was my favorite level in the game when it came out. I was like 7 years old and my step dad randomly in the middle of a road trip to his parents Ozarks lake house bought me and my little half-brother a Nintendo 64 right when it was released. It came with Mario Kart, and he got us Mario 64, and I think Bomber Man. Thinking back he probably did it to keep us kids occupied so we wouldn't bother him and my mom on our vacation if you know what I mean 😂... It worked. We played those games the whole week glued to the TV. I always loved penguins as a kid so this was my favorite level. Song is great and you playing it so well is super impressive. 🤙✌️
SAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..............u r my acoustic hero! =)
😜We snowed in @NY
SMB64 will always be a winter game, to me.
Hey Sam it’s Taylor! The guy you met at guitar center in Chicago!! Hope your gig went well that night and sorry I couldn’t make it!! Awesome job on this 🤙
I didnt think you'd go there bro! Dire Dire docks still my all time fav of yours.
The way you called me “malady” after nailing that song from my childhood, WOOOH calm down Sam
I finally stopped humming this yesterday after a few years. Now it's back again. thanks.
I subscribe you're too good! I'm guitarist myself for 19 years and I used to play Vamo Alla Flamenco from Final Fantasy IX (I recommend you this song by the way, a very great one) but you made me want play more video games songs thank you
Bro is straight up SHREDDING. It straight up almost looks like death metal
i appreciate that you prob filmed 8 minutes of penguin costume screwery but then cut it all and smashed straight to the performing
Racing that bastard down that ice slide lol boy I know every note.
👏
If it weren't for all these commenters (and your title) saying how hard this is, I'd have no idea. You literally make it look so easy. That's a serious testament to your skill.
I think about this song and by proxy you playing it every time it gets below freezing. Well done!
The intro is the most insane eye and ear melter
Your arrangements are the best! Also, that looks friggin tough
Congrats on the world cup bro. You're the GOAT
I really love Slider from this game. An awesome track for sure. When racing these penguins lol
That thumb nail is a lethal weapon
Your arrangements are ALWAYS on point! This might be as good as your Dance of the Pales arrangement!
Thank you Plabo! The song and penguin outfit fits Sam really well! 😂
Hey Sam! Wonder what Zelda is hardest and what if it was a duo? 😉
I don’t see you often but when I do I I can’t help but being impressed
Sam's translations are the absolute best! This guy makes me so happy 🙂 I think he should be hired at square enix to make some songs for final fantasy 🙂
making songs and covering the are completely different. lol
@@odiumimbues you didnt really lol, lol
@@odiumimbues obviously someone this good makes original songs as well ! Arranging songs like this takes a personal touch, there is way more than one way to skin this type of cat. For instance this arrangement is way better than lonlonjps version in my opinion (not sure if that’s even on RUclips anymore but he had all these video games arrangements at one point and then made a lot of them only available in japan)
Amazing moves to pull this off man, I hope to hear an f zero x shredding one of these days!
Yeah I'm just gonna settle as a campfire guitarist and call it a day.
what were the most important things towards developing your skills? like was there a teacher or specific instructional book or something? how did you approach learning/practicing?
Amazing! Extra points for the penguin suit.
Perfect time to upload this gem. Happy holidays and thank you for your hard work!
By complete happenstance, I was checking my account and this is the 1000th video I have liked. Good job!
So I've listened to you and your brother's Super Guitar Bros channel for a couple years now. And by listened I mean listened to A LOT. Too much, most professionals would say. But it was only recently that your individual channel showed up in my recommendations. It is. A treasure. Trove. After cursing RUclips for not properly recommending it earlier I dove in. Keep up the amazing work.
That's a cool penguin outfit, a cool song, and a cool guitarist
Excellent technique, quite demanding arrangement!! Good job bro, keep going, I like how u also managed to pull off, the key of slide theme...
I always love to see new videos from you! You're my favorite guitar RUclipsr (above even guys like ichika) and you are such an inspiration for pursuing classical guitar!
This is probably why the lute guy threw his lute away and invented the piano.
love it! Legit the best youtube guitarist doing Nintendo covers/arrangements that there is
Amazing! I’ve always loved this song!
Hope you had an amazing holiday weekend!
The dexterity it takes.. I commend you
This is incredible, Sam. Amazing job!!!
wonderful job dude!...but personally, nothing can ever hold a candle to your Mario 2! i LOVE it!!
I learned it... finally.
Very beautiful take, the baby penguin loves it
"That is but a taste of our fury. Do you yield?"
Just realized this is the same melody as Slider. Nice cover as always.
Thanks for this Sam! This is my favorite game ever and your arrangements are the best! Greetings from Brazil! 😄
O cara é bom
Vasco da Gama
unreal playing man.. just wow. Not sure if you're using compression but your note volumes and control are amazing. So clear.
RUclips keeps recommending me classical guitar or fingerstyle videos because I watch you. RUclips's stupid algorithm doesn't account for personality and just thinks of you as a guitar playing machine.
Amazing skill, awesome! Also, this song is so good! You really did it justice.
I'm not sure which is more beautiful, the cover or the outfit. Kudos to both.
Yay more covers :D these are always a treat
Yessss! Finally! Amazing job Sam!🙌🙌🙌
Stoked to see you play a new song! I've been waiting for you riff master
This was one of my favourite levels for this song alone
I can’t help but think of throwing that baby penguin off the map.
If I close my eyes I can quite clearly picture tossing the baby penguin off the cliff.
SO good.
Related: I'd die happy if you could do "Birdman" from Pilotwings 64.
👆 THIS!
This needs more attention. This is INCREDIBLE!!
Holy shit 😮 one of my favorite Mario songs, actually the whole soundtrack but that was amazing
Impressionné par la dextérité des 2 mains. Sam, tu es un Grand !!
Et joyeux Noël 🎅
yeah! absolutely fantastic left hand work on this one!
Which guitar part are you gonna play?
Sam: Yes
Fresh Sam video! And it's another Mario theme! Best Christmas ever! 🎄 Keep up the awesome work king!
I like when he diddly-dees the high E string.
Loved this! Awesome job!
Dude. Shout out to Pablo ! 😂😂
Holy freaking amazing shxt!!! Wow! Your rendition is insane! Merry Christmas.
As always an amazing performance, keep it up man and hope you’re keeping well 😊
Love it 😀 happy holidays to us all
This is crazy. Wow! Well done, Sam!
