Mountain Goats score Super Mario
April 20th, 2009The name of the song is "Thank You Mario But Our Princess is in Another Castle". It’s a great song, made greater by the concept (sung from the perspective of the character at the end of the Super Mario levels), made even greater by the 8-bit video. I never thought of the characters as real before, or that they could get sad or have wants and needs. Good stuff.
Oh man, I think Super Mario’s going to break my heart! Now I feel really bad about all those times I got him killed.
it’s amazing that the song makes you feel real emotion for a character made of pixels who’s an adventuring plumber.
