Here's my cover of Pollyanna from Mother! Versions of Pollyanna are in each of the three MOTHER games. I love the optimism of this song. It’s like the lyrics/melody are barging into your room and demanding you to smile. :D
DonutDrums is the best bandmate. I asked for the drums to sound like a mixture of the full band version of Pollyanna and the game version and as always, he made them so awesome!
I tried to find Ness cosplay at thrift stores, but couldn’t find anything - so the red headband and stripes were my tribute.
I filmed gameplay from all 3 games since versions of Pollyanna are included in the whole series. When I play one of the melodies, the game corresponds with the part in game that you hear the song. :)
All of my covers are done by ear; no sheets.

I appreciate you listening. Thank you so much!
Lyrics from the MOTHER album (1989)
Composed by Keiichi Suzuki and Hirokazu Tanaka
Original version sung by Catherine Warwick
Lyrics ~
“I believe the morning sun
Always gonna shine again, and,
I believe a pot of gold
Waits at every rainbow's end, oh
I believe in roses kissed with dew,
Why shouldn't I believe the same in you?
I believe in make believe,
Fairy tales and lucky charms and,
I believe in promises,
Spoken as you cross your heart, oh,
I believe in skies forever blue,
Why shouldn't I believe the same in you?
You may say I'm a fool,
Feelin' the way that I do
You can call me Pollyanna,
Say I'm crazy as a loon,
I believe in silver linings
And that's why I believe in you!
I believe there'll come a day,
Maybe it will be tomorrow.
When the blue bird flies away,
All we have to do is follow
I believe a dream can still come true,
Why shouldn't I believe the same in you?
You may say I'm a fool,
Feelin' the way that I do,
I believe in friends and laughter
And the wonders love can do,
I believe in songs and magic
And that's why I believe in you!
You may say I'm a fool,
Feelin' this way about you,
There's not much I can do,
I'm gonna be this way my life through'
Cause I still believe in miracles, I swear I've seen a few.
And the time will surely come when you can see my point of view
I believe in second chances,
And that's why I believe in you!”

Being a Mother Series fan, we tend to overhype things that have quality. Any quality :I But this is really good!
michelleheafy You are beautiful and have a wonderful voice.
I love your voice and this song really shows it so thank you for the incredible video
michelle you are a amazing singer I have been singing for almost 20 years and i still get amazed everytime I hear this
Mother 1: love
Mother 2/Earthbound: Friendship
Mother 3: Learning to lose both
You’re right all the mother games especially 3 teaches you to accept love, friendship and what you’ve lost and this song fits in that theme perfectly
It’s sad but mother 3 tells us we have to let go.
Leonardo Castro Yet, ironically, we never officially had the ability to experience it in English. We were forced to let go without receiving that final piece of closure. Thank god for fan translations!
Mother 1: oh look, another enemy!
Mother 2: Jeff being the best character just ever for a couple hours
Mother 3: Learning that maybe a dog was not the best choice for an adventure (Flint would have been a better choice) and also not crying
@@reallyannoyingguy6625
M1: Youth, intelligence, shyness
M2: Bravery, Wisdom, Life
M3: Hatred, Corruption, Rage,
This is beautiful, great job!
+Nathaniel Bandy Thank you so much!
+Nathaniel Bandy As a fellow Nathaniel, I agree.
haha yay Nathaniel(s)!
eyy nathan
ey
eyy
i love you
hey NB.
"All my covers are done by ear."
Im crying of sadness.
lacoot I know the feeling. I just want some sheet music.
***** Why don't you learn?
+Sadib What don't you learn to transcribe ^^
ike6252 How do you learn that?
***** Practice and MuseScore
I got chills from listening to this. This song just screams happiness, and you really knocked it out of the park.
insaneintherainmusic Carlos!! That really means a lot. :) Thank you so much!!
:thinking:
ay it's you your work is amazing
@@michelleheafy I think this confirms michelle inspired carlos to make his version with all the other kids. long live youtube vg covers!
@@Boothenson I was thinking the same thing
1:33 I loved that Fourside melody added in
+Joseph Joestar Hey! I'm glad you liked it, thank you :D
Yes, The Fourside theme is one of my favorite songs in the game
How does this game manage to inspire literally everyone who plays it?
I know right?!
It is crazy how many games this single game has inspired
I used to think the lyrics were really cheesy. But now I just think they’re so cute and feel really unique like they’re from a storybook.
I've seen this about 30 times, and I only discovered it a month ago. It keeps me motivated!
IT'S YOU +PIEGUYRULZ
+PIEGUYRULZ Me too! There was one day I had this on repeat for a couple hours :)
+PIEGUYRULZ Sweet! I'm so glad you're enjoying it. Thanks a ton! :D
Nathaniel Bandy Is it me, or do many YTers I watch or have watched like this video?
+PIEGUYRULZ Pieguy!? You like the Mother series too!? Small internet after all! I agree though. This is amazing!
途中でさりげなくMOTHER3の愛のテーマ入るの好き
No mater how old I get I will always treasure this series above everything else
TheAlchemistTrinity uh...sad thing this series is not taking much love from nintendo and itio will never create mother 4...It would've been better if Mother replaced mario..
Mojtaba Mortada Just because Nintendo ignores it does not mean its true for the fanbase. And last time I checked the fanbase is making Mother 4 and Itoi knows about it and all he said is to not make money on it so hes on board of us making our own Earthbound (Mother) Games =3
TheAlchemistTrinity
I know and it looks great
To add on to what Alchemist said, I think i'd rather have this unrealized gem not take over Mario, it's just one of those games where it's best held close to those whom realize its true worth :)
You know? It would be great if Mother got more attention, but I kinda like the way it is now. I mean, I'm still waiting for the official localized Mother 3 version, but I feel like because Mother got only three games, it makes it even more special, unlike Mario who's just getting a sensless amount of games. That's just what I think.
PS. I know I'm late for the party :P
Saving the
world one fight at a time...
have courage.
~Ness
Dont Care How Much i Will play this trilogy i Will be Sad
Noose tears, don’t worry, their happy ones
oh hello my twin from a parallel universe.
I dont know if I spelled that right parallel
Gotta write a research paper? This song will do.
Gotta do math homework? This song will do.
Gotta study for finals? This song will do.
I feel like I'm gonna be coming to this song a lot throughout my college career lol
Haha sweet - thank you! Happy studying, my friend :)
michelleheafy ^^^ Gotta feel good about yourself? This reply will do.
np2016 lol this is getting a bit too out of hand 😂
Missed opportunity to say "I believe in silver linings and that's why, I BELIEVE IN YOUU!" to make it rhyme.
Your voice and your songs has the ability to knock people out of depression. :')
That's really kind of you to say - it means a lot, thank you :)
I'm touched that you actually reply to my comments :D
Can confirm: has not knocked me out of depression, but it definitely helps
Criminally underviewed. Seriously, this is amazing...
DuoReview I'm glad you like it, thank you so much. :D
This is seriously the best cover of Pollyanna I have ever heard. All the pieces to other songs in the game scattered throughout fit perfectly. It should have been called an Earthbound Medley.
Nick Glover Every time I listen to this song I find myself discovering little bits I never noticed, like when Onett comes in after the Eight Melodies.
Nick Glover Awesome. Thank you so much Nick. It really means a lot. After reading your comment, I just added "Medley" to the title. :D Glad you're enjoying the extra melodies I added. Thanks again!
Very beautiful.
Tsuko G. Thank you :)
Waiting on a kazoo version still...
collab together pls
I'll never know what it is about the strangest things that bring me tears.
I knew there was a reason why I occasionally search Pollyanna.
***** Sweet :) Thanks for listening!
***** it's like this time i hit the fuckin lottery
You've done it again Michelle mah buddeh! I can see why this took a long time to produce. I can feel the hardwork and quality that you poured into this! Good job to you and Matt the Donut Dancin' Drummer!
***** Diwaaa! Thank you buddeh! I'm happy you say that! I (we) appreciate it!! (and lol donut dancin) xD
***** Thanks DIWA!!! -Thedacindonutdrummer
You're a passionate person. We need more like you.
Man I've been going through a lot, im almost 19 and I've changed a lot, but this cover still makes me feel like I too can save the whole world. Thanks a lot lady 🙏💪
I'm really glad you're still enjoying this cover. Thank you!!
Always a pleasure working with you!!! All your hard work really payed off! You were soooooo incredible in this!!! Thanks for using my drums! :^) Also that dog...
DonutDrums Same to you!
Haha! How could I forget. You and the dog were flailing/scootin all over the place!
DonutDrums hahahh scoot scoooot!!
So coooooo!!
Aw yayyy! Thank youuu! ^-^
In my opinion, one line from this song is one of the most impactful lines from anything ever. That line is: "Cause I still believe in miracles, I swear I've seen a few!" I don't know why, it's just so great.
This is an antidepressant in song form
M🌏THER is nice game.
Y🌎ur c🌎mment is als🌎 nice!!!
本当に笑顔が素敵😍
I bought this cover a while back and just rediscovered it on my phone. It’s still one of my favorite things to listen to to this day ;-;
I don't usually cry... But I bawled my eyes out listening to this. It was so beautiful
Aw, that leaves me almost speechless ~ I'm really glad you enjoyed it. It means a lot, thank you! :')
This is the best Pollyanna ever I heard. Please sing more song in your best voice please. My request is to sing believer
That was amazing! Can't wait to hear more!
I’m Japanese. this is great！
Wow, I think this is my new favorite thing from you! It's so awesome to see the quality of your work come so far! Incredible job, both of ya! This reminds me that I need to get to work on that collab thing I had in mind ; )
boozinwalsh Hey Josiah! I'm so glad to hear that, thank you so much! And yesss I can't wait ; >
boozinwalsh Thanks Josiah!
i listened to this song on my recent trip. I have to leave some toxic friendships behind recently and i listened to this song as i was on my trip and it has brought me so much nostalgia to the trip and happiness to remind me that there are far better positive things in life to look forward to so i commend this song for making me feel so lighthearted and positive :)
This is so good! I genuinely can't stop listening to it.
Earthbound is one of my Top favorite games of all time, which I still play on occasion, and the nostalgia and beauty you put into this song made me cry. Thank you 😭😭❤❤
Thank you for your kind words, it means a lot!
So many great tunes rolled perfectly into one! Loved the harmonies :). You have been making some great videos!
Steven Morris Hey Steven! Thanks so much, my friend :) Always nice to hear from you btw!
this is absolutely astonishing!!! Keep it up!
This song makes me look back on all the happy memories in my childhood. I'm not gonna lie.....I think I shed a tear or two while listening to this.
This song was inspiring before, but I really appreciate your rendition of it. Thanks so much for sharing this with us!
This is awesome! Especially great job on the vocal layering!
Thank you so much! I'm glad you like this! :)
Beautiful.My eyes watered. Thank you.
This song is calming and energizing at the same time!
This is absolutely incredible! I wish I could thumbs up this more than once!
Alex Mula Thanks for the kind words, I'm glad you enjoyed it!!!

Hey - thank you tons! :D That's super kind of you, I appreciate it :3
'Cause I still believe in miracles, I swear I've seen a few! And the time will surely come when you can see my point of view! I believe in second chances, and that's why I believe in Mother 3 and Mother TOOOOOOOOO!
Mother is out :D "earthbound beginnings" on eshop virtual console.
Only mother 3 is left...
Amazing job! Thank you for this!
Absolutely beautiful.
Every time I hear this song I reaffirm and reset my goal to love and support others even in hard circumstances. It draws me to be a better person. Thank you for sharing your gift.
That's great to hear. Now that you mention it, it does feel like a reaffirmation of intentions when I listen to the original, too. Well put! Thank you, I really appreciate it. :)
STOP BEING SO AMAZING

I loooooove this cover
Do more Earthbound / Mother! You got it girl.
+Dan Szymanski Working on new EarthBound music now. :D Thank you!
OMG i'm in love
amazing job on this one !
This channel deserves so many more subscriptions. Absolutely gorgeous performance. Thank you.
Very talented group, I'm impressed
Thank you!! :)
You just earned a subscriber :) This is a really great cover!
Bluereach180 Awesome, thank you so much! :)
Probably still my favorite cover of yours to return to, gawd you totally killed this song. The vocal layering and harmonies are so beautiful, and MAN that Fourside bit inbetween verses is perfection!
The layered vocals and instrumentals are genius. This is a phenomenal cover!
This was a really solid track, the work you've put into it really shows. There's some glorious details to the fills and patterns that DonutDrums is using, and your own vocal work is wonderfully expressive and precise. There's a few really tricky interval leaps and you nailed the intonation on them, well done :)
Soundole VGM Covers Thank you so much, my friend. :) I appreciate your thoughtful words and I'm really glad you liked this!
Soundole VGM Covers Thank you!!!! :D
I am no longer depressed,
I now have goals to achieve,
I now have a purpose,
I now have love and happiness and a big THANK YOU! 💕😊👍
That's really awesome to hear! Thank you!! :D
michelleheafy THANKS!
Im doing well in school and its going smoothly with my friends and family! And I just found out I'm getting a new born baby brother in 4 months !!!! ヽ(^0^)ノ
Thanks for this. It made me cry today.
This video is a miracle (and my favorite)
Thanks for the hardwork you put here. Your covers inspire me to do some of my own in the future :D
I came here for a cover if pollyanna, what I got was memories and emotions. A stellar cover! I love this song so much and your version got me all teary-eyed and put a big dumb smile on my face. :D
+Java Chip Gamer Thank you so much! I'm glad this could make you smile, and also that it could bring back memories! I appreciate your kindness. :)
And I appreciate the great cover! I really look forward to your next one! :D
I like how you added a little bit of other songs in, too.
I heard a little bit of Smiles and Tears and Metropolis of Fourside. :)
8 melodies and sweet home too
Your version of this song has really gotten me through some tough times.
Thank you for your music ❤️
every few years i’ll come back to this and get goosebumps. thank you michelle

Is it possible for a sudden rush of nostalgia to give you a heart attack? Because it sure feels like it. ;_;
no that's not strange at all this made things long in the past surface in my feelings too :)
Thumbs up for Dream Theater
Just great, excellent job
Love this rendition of one of my favourite songs in the Mother series, really capture the whimsical and innocence of adolescences and how we all have that child in us that still hopes for better times. Great work you just got a sub.
かんどうしました
Angelic voice and lush harmonies = goosebumps as usual ^^
Marc Papeghin Yay, Marc!! Thank you so much! ^-^ I appreciate it!
michelleheafy I like your channel oh please check out my channel if you want to.
Amazing !!! I can't describe how i feel,this is so cool !
awee this cover was amazing!!! your voice is soo good!!! it's like an angel!!!!
Ahhh!! I had no idea this came out already! We were talking about it for a long time but I never got a notification that it was out. Anyway it's freaking amazing and I love it! I think this just became my new favorite video of you guys. Also the striped shirt and red bandanna do a good job of making you look like Ness without being too obvious about it.
Great job both you guys?
Super Guitar Bros Hey!!! Aww yeah! Grr youtube notifications. Thank you soo much, I'm really happy that you enjoyed it so much! Haha I'm glad you liked the stripes/bandana, you know how much I struggled to find something Ness-like ;D Thanks too for making me even more hyped while making this, due to all of our EB talks ;D
:D
Mother 1 just released in North America VC as Earthbound Beginnings! Crank up the volume and lets party!
WeirdoOfWeirdos YESSSS! I was just playing it on vc last night! Wooo party ;D
Subbed just for this.
Amazing remix.
I applaud.
This is a great cover, I especially love the Fourside motif thrown in, and the vocals themselves are phenomenal
I haven’t even played Earthbound and this makes me want to
Do it, you won't regret it.
♪You may say I'm a fool, feeling the way that I do, but your music is incredible, I swear I speak the truth. Your vocals are just beautiful, you're super pretty, too. You're very talented, Michelle, and that's why I believe in you!♪
Seriously, your remixes are amazing! You have a wonderful singing voice, and you deserve way more views. I don't know if you take requests, but I'd love to hear you do a remix of Splatoon's Final Boss theme (Squid Sisters ver.)
+GamingManeuverAlpha Aw hahah thanks for the lyrics!! :D I'm really glad you like my remixes, and it feels really nice when someone likes my voice - so double thanks! :) I'll keep that song in mind, too.
I believe this song kicks ass. Great job
You have a beautiful voice, amazing cover!
