One of the most iconic themes from one of my absolute favorite games of all time, I've put off recording this song for years! So glad to finally dig into this song, and the challenges that came with it. Without much percussion, I noticed this arrangement didn't hit as hard as the original, so I got creative and put my own percussion in. The goal was the make it sound just like the original and not get in the way. It's crazy how many of my favorite songs Koji Kondo composed... Hope you guys enjoy :)

@@goodboi6540 I knew someone was gonna say it
Colab confirmed!!!
The cat: "I don't get paid enough for this!"
The gods of acapella have brought us good fortune these days. Bless the gods!
Fucking amazing, haven't watched any of your vids since I was little. RUclips recommended this to me, and I'm still baffled by the great quality of it all. Please never stop
so awesome man! i grooved hard to this Today. Your work always has and will always have a place on my playlist. Great tunes my man :)
One of my faves and I didn’t even know it til your rendition, haha ❤️
Classic!
I just finished this for the first time recently, so this track is still fresh in my find. This is a fantastic rendition!
By far one of the songs I was most hopeful you'd undertake.
I like humming this song and I always imagined you doing a cover of it one day haha it sounds great :D
Hell yeah, glad to see this channel still active after all these years! You, sir, have a truly amazing talent!
Absolutely love it! Brings back so many memories of good times.
Happy you’re back
HE’S BACK!
Awesome
Damn I miss this dude making videos 😞
Señor Smooth McGroove
¡Lo amo mucho!
Wooooooooo
oho ! great job again
My brother says Nintendo should give Smooth McGroove a job! He also said he would pay extra to have a game where Smooth McGroove sang the entire soundtrack!
Beatyfull músic

subtites are telling [music]
You can basically create 8-channel songs since you have 8 recordings from the acapella
Please do Moog City
An A capella version of Mortal Kmobat 3 songs would be just 😍🌈💖
Have ever did zelda skyward sword theme i would like to see sense the game is coming back
suggestion: anything banjo kazooie :)
Hello
I’m big fan of you from Japan for ten years!! I heard your music when junior
high school student for the first time.
I learned English, so I’m glad to comment in English! I really enjoy your music still now!
Your English is very nice.
your english is pretty good, Never give up!!
This is so wholesome and I love it!!
Who was your English teacher. I know a gaming RUclipsr that lives in Japan and teaches English.
As a born American, your English is great. The only thing that needs work is your syntax and that's just something you learn naturally speaking with others :)
Man I missed Mr. McGroove
Please - Mr. McGroove is his father! Call him Smooth ;)
@@machinaeZER0 I thought it was Dr. McGroove??
😱😞👊
Indeed.
CHAD !! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE??
I'm surprised you haven't made this one already
Same
Same
Same
Same
Same.
The guy with the beard was really carrying everyone else
I know, right? I mean, the others don’t even COMPARE!
What are you talking about, it's obviously the one with the glasses, anyone can see that...
Are you guys not hearing the one that owns the cat? He is phenomenal
the cat itself was doing a good job too
Personally, I think the one with long hair was doing really well
What an absolute throwback to the past!
Yep i get it
Ye, I'm so glad he did an acapella on this!
A LINK to the past, if you will. ;)
WHAT U HERE?!
And yes he get it
I would play an Indie-game that was completely "orchestrated" with you! Seriously, this sounds so great.
This
@Oh Yeah The only god here is Smooth McGroove.
Why not a triple A one?
There’s only one song but littlebigplanet 3 has him
Crypt of the Necrodancer team needs to collab with him like today.
If Nintendo won't do more for Zelda's anniversary, leave it to Smooth McGroove! I still absolutely adore this song and its motif, beautiful cover King
Hi pkbeats
I’m subscribed to you
PKBeats has good taste in beats
Hey, if they’re putting all their Zelda recourses into BotW2, then I’m all for it
@@grackleking6413 I mean...it would be a completely separate team handling that stuff. Not to mention, it would just be ports.
One of my favorite songs, and one of my favorite videos of yours. Fantastic job!

Oh
How is the comment older than the video?
[I refuse to be staved off]

@hv a gooday ?
@Oh Yeah ... ok
We’ve got John Riggs here...
how do you always pick the best songs for your acapellas? sheesh this is good.
It's Soo good
He *doesn't* pick the best songs. He's just that good. A lot of average songs sound good by him, and some good songs sound even better. Personally, IF I knew how to replace music files in Minecraft, I'd put his Wet Hands cover in with the rest of the chill music and terrifying cave noises.
- comment posted after he spammed the channel with videos about trendgame
@@Falkuzrules you can say the same thing about undertale
Not sure if you're saying that negatively or positively but I'm gonna go ahead and take it negatively because my comment does indeed apply to it too then.
When this song started I thought "Smooth hasn't done this already?"
Then I realized that the world was a little more complete.
If you throw Charl into the fountain to get an upgrade, the fairy keeps him because he's so awesome.
And you get Val Kilmer as a summon as well.
E
That's his cat, right?
It's the fairy's cat now 😂
Throw cat? 😿
This song sure is a blast from the past.
Ah, I see what you did there :)
My 6 year old son wanted me to tell you this is the best song he's heard his whole entire life! And I agree! We enjoy listening to your songs!
Tell your son he’s got good taste in music
Your son might love my rock remix then ;)

Man, nothing beats going back and playing the classics with your kids
@@_3x15_ I don’t have kids (well duh I’m 15) but growing up my dad bought an nes so we could play the original Mario and now we collect old video game stuff together! So I could not agree more!
I have a song request or suggestion: First level of Batman on the NES.
THIS!!
Yes!
YESSS
You heard the man! Do it!!
I second this!
An acapella of the spirit temple from Ocarina of Time would complete my life
Same it would
E
Just realized he hasn't done any OoT temple. Forest Temple would be great because it's such an interesting song on its own.
I would love both versions of the stone temple from MM
When you say "both" do you mean "the other"? Because he did do the normal version 8 years ago.
You gotta love how Smooth gets each and every single note right, it sounds just the same as in the game, only with "badabaps"
Bonus Content: If you play this in reverse, you get Lorule Castle acapella
double bonus content: play it slower and it's Farewell, Hyrule King from Wind Waker
@chill @ wha
@chill @ very nice ! One more spammer to report
Wait what did chill say?
youtube needs a reverse option
Link to the past is the best Zelda game in my opinion. So much iconic music from this game!
i realy like oracle of age too. But this one is the best, i agree !
Fucking ay right it is
As an 80s baby, this was my 💩 🔥🔥
Such a classic
It can’t really beat BotW and TotK for me, but easily the best not including those
Koji Kondo at its best
Smooth bringing us back to the past!
We could say he's linking us to our past
O
But luckily he don't play some shitty games.
to bah the awesome tunes that kick ass
If you do the entire OST, someone will patch it into a ROM.
I want all of it thrown into a randomizer rom.
The Legend of Smooth: A Baa to the Past
There are already mods for the SNES ROMs to have CD-quality music, if the SNES had a CD drive, it could be possible.
I thought I can die happy as long as I hear an acapella version of Death Mountain theme..
But this ROM idea is too much, it needs to happen xD
Was just jamming out to old Smooth covers earlier and then I get this gift in my subscriptions. What a great way to spend my sick day :)
I agree - what a gem! And get well soon, Mr. Buffalo!
I've always maintained this is the best LoZ game. OoT ain't bad at all, but this is my jam. Thanks for the amazing work!
I agree. I was absolutely blown away by this game in the SNES days! hits me right in the feels.
[The following is my thoughts and opinions, you are welcome to disagree and have your own veiw point.]
As someone who first beat Zelda 1 then Zelda 2...
Link to the past was good.
Links Awakening has always been my favorite even though it is linier. It has the better overall sound track, and had many of the firsts for the franchise.
There are some good and devious puzzels in LttP, but overall I don't think the puzzels are always introduced correctly, relying heavily on trial and error to learn how to solve them. *(not like this wasn't the case in Zelda 1)
I do think OoT is the better game between them. Even if the "hint system" owl/sheik starts off by just telling you to go somewhere for half of the game. overall it's a better game to revisit.
Maybe it's a generational thing, but I much prefer its pseudo sequel ALBW. I love all Zelda games tho. Except maybe TP, that one's just ok.
@@Julio3324 Could be generational. This was one of the first LoZ games I got to play, and the first I ever beat. Haven't gotten to play ALBW but I'd like to try it.
@@pokemon1895 Not too sure about that; I played LttP first, in late 2013 - I asked for an SNES for my 13th birthday, and that was one of two games that came with it (the other being a repro of Earthbound - didn't trigger the antipiracy or anything, so a good repro). I played it, completed it, and loved it, and it's my comfort game these days. I got Majora a few years later - still haven't finished it - and Ocarina later still - haven't gotten past Jabu-Jabu's belly. Those last two just... don't quite do it for me.
I think it might be when I played them all, versus when I was born, and what I think of their respective systems, since the SNES is my favourite, tied with the PS1; but the N64, while I respect it, doesn't appeal to me in the same way. The strange thing is, I grew up with the N64 from single digit-ages, but not the SNES - my older brother had a PS1 that he threw out before my 10th, and which he only played sports games on, which I was never interested in. But then, I got hold of one myself as a teen, and... I fell head-over-heels for the thing. So if anything, I'd say it's more related to the formative years, and possibly internet idolisation, seeing as people online always showered the SNES and PS1 with praise - during that time, I was first active online.
tl;dr: I don't think it's generational, I think it's a little more nuanced.
*This track is a masterpiece, just like the game itself.*
I just noticed he’s seems to be using some kind of widescreen hack on the game. I’ve never seen that before.
They just released a wide-screen mod for Super Mario World as well
Thats some scary shit
"hack" bruh, why you so afraid it's not gonna bite you
@@YounesLayachi dude im scared. What if they hack into my cell phone or computer?
Yeah it makes some really ugly artifacts on the sides of the screen when going through doors. Idk why people think it's better this way
Ah yes, the 8 sages!
I SWORE he did this cover before!
Guess i was wrong...well, lets BA everyone! 🎶
Same here I'm pretty sure hes done this before
Nah he did darkworld theme
Legends say that the king of hyrule fired the castle musicians and hired Smooth.
I love detective conan
Freaking king shit!! Glad to see you back my goovey guardian.
wait fuck I forgot you existed how many randomizers have you done since zootr4
Eyyy it's Tyler
Yoo AT in the wild!? Love both of these RUclipsrs
I hope he ends up doing the entire LttP soundtrack eventually. The Staff Roll track might be my favorite music in all of video games.
I’d love to hear him do the Triforce chamber theme
Same here, I think it's under appreciated based on how many people will do the Triforce theme over the Credits theme.
Agreed
ゼルダの伝説、35周年おめでとう🥳
そして、素敵なmusicありがとうございます☺️👍
verdade mano
Videos like this are why aliens choose to keep us alive.
Have you considered working at the fruit presevatives market? Your jams are top notch!
I normaly dont write comments in english cause it isn't my first language but f*ck it. You are amazing and I just discovered your Spotify. Holy shit I didn't know I could tear up from just an acapella song but you did it, my nostalgia is hitting me right in the feels
Man....this really bring back memories. My dad absolutely loved Zelda. He wouldn't play them, but loved sitting in my room for hours helping me with the puzzles and gave tips on how to beat the bosses. Thank you for this!
Smoothe McGroove was our missing link to the past.
Dude you only have like 4 songs left and we can have the entire OST
Which ones has he yet to do?
@@austemousprime
Four songs is a gross underestimate, I was definitely being sarcastic HOWEVER I will gladly list the songs he hasn't done yet:
-SANCTUARY
-Caves/Sewers
-KAKARIKO VILLAGE
-Game House
-Fortune Teller
-LIGHT WORLD DUNGEON
-DARK WORLD DUNGEON
-"Silly Pink Rabbit"
-"BLACK MIST"
-GANON FIGHT
-TRIFORCE GET
-Epilogue/STAFF ROLL
I also think he should do the Title Screen (with the sword sound lol), from a technical standpoint.
@@DickWad16 you fucking Chad actually listet them...
@@DickWad16 so many games have so many bangers. Would be impossible for him to get em all.
I bet sommoene would make a mod out of it when he finish if
As a songwriter and arranger, his content has always drawn me in. I really would love to see/learn a bit more about how this god of a man actually puts all of this together.
Even though I'm only 13, this game is one of my favs
Hey! It is around the same age I actually replayed it from my childhood in order to beat it! Played for the first time at the age of 7. This game should be enjoyed by all no matter what age! It is super difficult, but it makes the ending totally worth seeing. Currently, I am 29 in the middle of my playthrough (4th crystal out of 7).
Have a great day, man!
Smooth McGroove isn't doing an acapella of 'Hyrule Castle', he's just calling out to his dad. "Papa".
:P JK. I always enjoy your videos.
You just put my 1 month old daughter to sleep. I cannot thank you enough for this. She hasn't slept in what seems like forever. Thank you so much.
Dude you KILLED this song's ominous tone. Kudos to those sweet pipes of yours.
So many different faces.
Yet somehow the same.
At 38 years old, few things in life have as much power over me as the visuals and music from this game.
27 years old and I completely agree. A link to the Past was my very first videogame, back when I got a GBA on my 6th birthday. Still to this day my absolute favourite videogame of all time. The music and visuals are still so nostalgic for me.
OMG I am reliving my childhood all over again, this was incredible to listen to.
The legend of Cat: A Smooth to the Groove
Now that you’ve done A Link to the Past, you should do Minish Caps Hyrule Castle, heck go on a hyrule castle marathon and just make videos on Hyrule castles in other Zelda games lol
The remixed Ballad of the Windfish + Trios’ Themes from BotW would be INCREDIBLE.
Lorule Castle’s theme is also superb with how it layers and builds
8 users got stuck in the castle after rescuing Princess Zelda.
Every dislike after those 8 couldn't even reach Zelda ¬_¬
12 now haha
Or maybe they just played the first version of Parallel Worlds instead..
Year 4 part 3, begging on my hands, knees, with head on ground for a cover of
Donkey Kong Country: Fear Factory
I truly hope that everyone understands the mental prowess to separate each section... and then use their voice to emulate these songs. MY HERO!
"This guy looks like...young Gandalf." - My sweetheart
This is awesome! Only way it could be even awesomer would be if you a-capella-ed the entire soundtrack and put it in the cartridge!
These two dislikes are definitely Agahnim and Ganon...
They re the same
The Legend of Bah
Acapella to the Past.
More than Nice 😂
Smooth McGroove in 2021? Return of the King
This song really made me feel like I was in a highly secured royal castle.
A link to the past is timeless
This threw me back so far I’ve probably landed in Hyrule by now.
When I was playing this game as a kid, this is what the music sounded like in my head
When I was playing this game as a kid, this is quite literally how it sounded-
I used to acapella the tracks that played in-game as they were playin lmfao
Send this to the proper game grumps episode.. we all know the one
Turns on subtitles; *[MUSIC]*
My only disappointment here is you didn’t have one screen going “shhhh” for rain
The rain isn’t a part of the main theme.
@@kylestubbs8867 The footage was of the beginning. If nothing else, it should be for atmospheric purposes. We all know this theme better for the rain anyway. I’m not upset by it. I was just like “oh… bummer”
This game is a magic masterpiece. Great job!!
1:00 gives me goose bumps every time.
What's your job? I'm a choir 😊
Zelda 3, best ZELDA game EVER
My childhood / Meine Kindheit :)
Keep those "A Link to the Past"-songs coming. Excellent game, wonderful themes and awesome acapella performance. Very well done!
Your acapella is amazing you should consider doing some themes from Spirit Tracks it has an amazing ost
I'm kinda miss your cover Dude, can you please make new videos?
The Hero of Legend is BACK!!!!
Smooth McGroove is back.
I played this outside during the day... and now it’s night and there is an octopus shooting rocks at me
