I see a lot of people asking what the music is in the comments. It's "To the Gateway" from Super Mario Galaxy. Also holy crap I can't believe this blew up, if you subscribe please tell me what you want to see, it'd help out a ton! EDIT: New video similar to this one, it's about my nostalgia with the Wii U, go check it out, tell me what you think, if its good, if its garbage, and what I should change the next time around th-cam.com/video/Ld9xDF7owAQ/w-d-xo.html
Thank you actually so much for putting the music title 😁 it's always such a struggle to find what music people use in thier YT videos and there is so many amazing ones like this one
I have a confession to make: I saw memes of this on the Internet and thought everyone was trolling so I did the thing and it worked! Bruh I did not excepted to actually work and worst of all the Mama doesn't even do damage on the player for doing such a thing I am never doing that again, not because it wasn't fun. It was, but out of principal and also because I have better things to do with My Limited Time on this Earth like go see how tall the trees have grown in My City since I last saw Them
I hope you feel better now buddy, if you're not You can still take a break here, you don't have to always have the solution to your problems, just rest for a while to get new energies to continue your adventure, take care buddy 😸
Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” seek and you shall find.
I really like this image. It's like I get to sit with Mario, and me and him are just taking a brief break from everything. Thanks for sitting with me, Mario.
Ye the pain and sadness are as much a part of life as the few and far between happy moments. The world is a terrible place, but we have spaces like this to hide in, like a favourite comfy sofa
@@Daggerz_And_Ramen The world isn't a terrible place. The world is free from moral judgement. It's us humans that construct those values and the only real pain is the one of a meaningsless existence craving deep inside our souls.
@@MohammedSelimec-xb9rh Ultimately, the world is both. It’s terrible and wonderful. In a world of dictatorship, war, apathy and hate is also beauty, community, peace and love. They all have their times. You could call me a pessimist, but the pain this world causes can just be overwhelming at times and I’ll only feel okay around 20% of the time. But everyone has different experiences
@@Daggerz_And_Ramen No the world is not both. The world is everything and nothing. Those bipolar views lay in our religious ancestry and reflect the allegedly never ending battle of good vs. evil. I can just say it again, the world in itself is free from judgement, we are the ones constructing value systems to judge the events.
Sometimes, i wish the whole world could slow down for videos like this. You never really appreciate stuff like this until you just stop and listen to it. Edit: I legit can't tell if what I said was actually profound words of wisdom, or just plain nonsense. I've gotten so many replies calling it both.
Yep. That’s how I found out that I loved the song “The Streets Of Whiterun”. Played Skyrim for years not stopping to take a breath in the game and then stopped and listened to it and realized that song is a masterpiece.
Watching this made me realize how hopeless Mario must've felt during his adventure in 64 or at least I feel like he would. Like don't you think there were just moments while he was in a mission or after he finished a really daunting one where he's just thinking "Damn I don't know if I can do this" or he just starts thinking about all the rest of the stars he has to get and gets de-motivated. Sure he has super abilities but at the end of the day he's pretty much just a normal human who has to go through these dangerous territories that just become more dangerous and difficult to navigate as the game goes on and he can't quit because he knows his friends are being held captive by bowser. I know I'm looking way too deep into a simple video game made almost 30 years ago but I just think it's interesting to think about it in that perspective.
These last few years in my mid 20's have been hard for me too, even though nothing 'bad' happened... It's just the feeling of becoming a true adult, you're changing and so are the things around you. It feels like life is starting to slow down and you're accepting what your situation is. You've got less freedom and have more responsibilities weighing you down that take up your time. Some things you grew up liking seem less interesting and close friends/family grow distant. I miss being a kid/young adult for sure, never felt that sentiment now more than ever.
Don’t get stuck in nostalgia. Life can be infinitely better as you age. If you believe you’ve peaked, you’re not trying to live in the best moments there could be. Some things are better left in the past than to be scrutinized under a microscope every 10 years.
Is it bad that this made me cry? I don't know what it is, maybe it's the nostalgia from playing Super Mario Galaxy on my wii after receiving it for Christmas. Or maybe it's the memories of being a child and the only worry I had in life was trying to collect all of the power stars. All I know is that Super Mario Galaxy music is capable of evoking such strong emotions. Thanks for this lil masterpiece bro!
No, but I do think nostalgia is paired with it, but I still do play the game on a mario 3d all-stars pack and also made me feel melancholic or bittersweet. Kind of feeling like I might have lost something before, but I don't know what like a piece of childhood memory or a check or turning point in life. I guess perhaps it's just the song, which is pretty sad itself much similar to like the track Luma, that along with being paired with the gloomy yet beautiful scenic view and mario sitting alone (almost like a mourn) adds to it.
This feels hyper-real in a way. It’s like getting glasses for the first time but with Super Mario 64 graphics, with the lighting, the low static angle, and the way the snowflakes have actual depth. I’ve also been playing B3313 a lot so to have this perspective on vanilla CCM feels like returning home. Thanks for sharing this moment with me.
Old 3D graphics are amazing like that. I noticed that when I was playing the Resident Evil 4 Remake and the game felt like... CGI-movie? And then I went back and played the old original Resident Evil 4 and that one felt like an 80s movie with real puppets and animatronics. It's like old graphics is more real because everything is sharper and you can tell you are playing a videogame while new games makes you feel like you are not actually there - you are just watching something even though you are in control. It's so hard to explain but it's as if the less a game tries to convince you it is real - the more real it becomes.
That’s a fantastic explanation, I always felt this way about Mario Kart Wii, in my opinion it actually weirdly looks better than Mario kart 8. Mk8 is stunning of course but there’s that charm in the old games.
can we just appreciate this from a music theory standpoint? it's fairly simple on the surface, but there are so many key changes and starting at about 1:00 we get a new theme and a 4th voice comes in. it gets oddly complicated for how simple each melody is. just another phenomenal example of what nintendo's composers can accomplish.
Gaming has been spiritual for me throughout my growth as an individual. The mixture of the stories, the visuals, the sounds, the music, and being able to do stuff in the game all together puts you into a world of your own; one where you get to observe things that also give you insights into your own life. Videos like these have been my go-to's for this kind of thing lately. To kind of vibe out with all the characters I grew up with, knowing that my fellow gamers are doing the same as we all ride this journey through existence giving you a sense of community. Oh yeah, for sure we need lots more of these kind of things. Both short quick videos like this, and long ones that contain mixes of music that put you into the state where you can reflect on this.
@KiboSuperStar it depends on what Game you play. If you're playing naruto storm games online or fifa Gamez. Unless you're winning you will not see peace 😂
It's moments like these that make me realize that times have changed. The world is different now, and I've changed a lot from the days of watching this kind of content obsessively. I'm almost 18 now. Responsibilities are becoming more plentiful. I do not want to grow up, yet life chose for me. I have a boyfriend now, so many things have happened that I'm grateful for. I recently came back to sm64 to rekindle my childhood hours of the wii virtual console. Exploring the castle and it's secrets for hours on end. It's why i have such an obsession with some of the levels. The game is so surreal in a way i cannot describe. I wish i was a kid again, wandering the empty castle walls, always learning and discovering. Stay true out there everyone, and make sure to always let that kid side of you be a part in your life. Don't kill your childhood when you're older. Much love, to y'all. Peace ✌️
That's a beautiful sentiment. I'm exactly double your age, and Mario 64 is part of my childhood, too. I think that's amazing that we both have such fond attachment to this game, even though we're separated by nearly two decades. Super Mario 64 reminds me of those days in my room, in the dark, with my little CRT TV and my Nintendo 64. Good times. 😊 I am glad the virtual console and simulation exists, so that classic like SM64 can be enjoyed for generations to come!
You're still a kid at 18. I didn't think I was, but here I am at 30. I deployed at 18 and thought I was an adult. I was just a kid, I knew nothing and trusted the adults around me who told me to grow up before my time and to deal with a world of problems I didn't make in ways that were contraindicated by the morals I was taught as a kid. Don't be so quick to grow up kid, take the time to learn and experience the innocence of the world before it's ripped from you violently.
It’s awesome how games that I played in my childhood on original hardware have been played by other kids on newer platforms. These amazing games should be enjoyed by current and coming generations of kids, which is why game preservation is a big topic for many.
I've been ignoring this video for the past few days. Today I finally clicked! So peaceful. Makes you appreciate the present moment to slow down and be still. 😊 Take your time✨ Keep smiling :) ❤ Thanks for uploading!✨
I felt so lost today, there are so many things lately that are stuck in my head and are destroying me from the inside somehow. It’s good to hear the music of my childhood again. It let me feel safe again. Thanks for that man
Why is this video so clarifying? I seriously took this moment to reflect on recent events. Let’s just say these past few months have been “action packed”
My life is fine now. There is gonna be a good'ol vacation tomorrow, and I can't wait for it! After all the learning I did in the past few weeks, it will feel like a good break.
@@mercianthane2503 But wait there is more: We are now (2024) as distance from Super Mario 64 (1996) as Super Mario 64 (1996) was distance from Space Travel (1969)
I recently started to play on my old 3ds Mario and Luigi dream team, I don't know why I decided to do that, I Just... Remember the game after years withouth playing. While playing, I started to Remember so many things from the past... Those times when my cousins and me played the game for hours... My 5 years old me didn't even know how to play, so I always asked for help to my older cousin, he teach me how to play it, and many other Mario games. Everytime I looked his way to play...make me look him like a god of videogames. Now, It's me the one Who plays the game like that, or perhaps even better... Every part from the game, Every music and Every place remind me diferente things from Those times... I don't realized until these days the diferent that I'am, the diferent that the world is Now. Back in then, I always tried to be the Best in school, I did'nt has friends, I Just entertained playing Mario games withouth worries... Now, I don't even care for the school, I have a couple Who has problems that I Will not say here for respect. I still play Mario games, but Now I can't play for the entire Day, because I need to work Hard in life projects to have a better life for me and my cojple in the future. But these days... I gave me a little vacations to play all the Day Mario and luigi like the old times... This video Just apeared in my recomended, and I feel that it fits Just so well for these moments. I don't know, all of This make me think about how the world and the persons can change, and how diferent can be your life today if you compare it with your life in the future, This also make me think how you need to apreciate the simple things in the life, today could look like something silly or not important, but tomorrow... It could be a precious memory... I don't know why I write This, It's 3:00 A. M. here, but I see many coments from that style and... I Just feel I need to leave mine too (PD: sorry If something does'nt understand well or if I repated many words, I normally talk spanish)
Recently I also have fixed up my old 3DS! I've been playing donkey Kong country returns 3D on it and it reminds me of when I would play it on the wii with my brother, great memories. You've reminded me of dream team, and I'm definitely going to back to play it again.
Don't worry about your grammar it's pretty much perfect. I get you though I wished I spent my younger years with family more but now most of them have moved away, and while I still see them a good amount it's just not the same really as when I was a carefree little kid. I totally get you on how its important to emphasize what's going on right now and remeber. Wish you the best man❤
I just want to go back to the good times... when there weren't any problems to worry about. Relaxing in the living room, playing Mario Galaxy on my Wii. Now here I am, about to finish high school and going into college. It makes me excited for the future, but it also makes me sad. Sometimes I ponder in my bedroom, thinking about life, and how I want to go back sometimes. But this is part of life. You need to cherish every single second of it, because in the end, it is just a precious memory.
I picked up super Mario 64 again two days ago. It was one of my first memories, watching my brother play whomp’s fortress before we went to the kitchen to eat pancakes that mom made. When I was little I wasn’t good at games and rarely finished them until I was at least 18; then I started actually playing things through to the end. I’m almost 30 now, and I can play games much better than I used to. I’m trying to get every star and I’m so happy whenever I see more stars fill out in each stage. So much has changed, and yet stayed the same. Dire Dire Docks/Jolly Roger Bay soundtrack is still my favourite song in the whole world. I paint pictures of the sea, and my whole life I’ve yearned to be underwater like the secret stage. In my dreams I’m wandering through funny rooms similar to the liminal space like areas of Peach’s Castle - that’s why I’ve always found them comforting rather than scary. I never realized how much comfort SM64 has given me through my life and it’s a magical space I can visit whenever I want. But not to go back in time - I made the choice to go forward. And I choose to bring these happy memories with me in the journey ahead and use them to create more beauty and comfort.
Might be due to listening to this at midnight, but it makes me feel so relaxed and tired that I almost feel like I could be sucked right into the world. The night sky, the falling snow, the glowing lights, the _music_ , all of it was very lulling, and I imagined being in Mario’s place, sitting on an abandoned bridge in the brisk cold, gazing at the event of glowing snow that happens on Cool Cool Mountain at nighttime… Thank you so much for the beautiful video! 😁
Just hit 21 years of age yesterday. I’ve made a lot of progress now that I’m about 20% into the game. I’m almost done with the college main quest and I’m excited to see which side quest takes over as the next core chapter of the story. Hoping that this TH-cam thing can one day work out, and that I can inspire those in need the same way I was inspired. Cheers for what’s to come. *Saved Progress*
Im in a really unique spot in my life right now. Thanks to my hard work, I have been able to get all of my school classes out the way and essentially graduate early. In a couple of months, I'll be moving out and heading to college, which is 2 hours away from my home. I still have a lot to figure out, but I really want to let myself slow down and enjoy the time I have left. I'll still be making the effort to save a lot of money up for college, but I can't let the last few months of my childhood past me by. I just hope all the decisions I make are good ones for me.
Bro… I remember they had a thing at Walmart when I was younger where you could play Super Mario Galaxy. It was such an amazing time and I remember wanting the game so bad. That Christmas I ended up getting a Wii and the game. Legendary. This music literally sent shivers of nostalgia through my entire being. Thank you for such a subtle yet large reminder of a sweet time in my life.
I’ll be 24 tomorrow and I feel like I’ve almost wasted alot my youth man. I made a promise this year and for upcoming years I will put more purpose in my life. Start chasing my dreams more and living more in the present
hey dude. i turned 22 over a week ago and with secondary school certificate achieved and onto a diploma. I just feel lost, i feel like my last 5 years have gone completely down the drain. the stuff im doing is extremely hard, and my family won't let me just up and at it quit to go work fulltime. Ive been almost broke the last few years aswell because of school. I hope my friends don't think im a freeloader, i miss being a kid with no responsibilities
You keep posting things like this and you'll get crazy attention, this music speaks to people's childhood more than almost anything else. Really takes you to a little world of your own away from all the chaos in the world
Mario Galaxy's OST is such a masterpiece. I often go back to playlists to study or work with it, but never really to take a moment for myself. So, thank you for this. Many appreciate it.
Tough times in my life right now… I’m on the verge of bad thoughts, my family is in dispute of most nonsense sh!t…. And I just propose to myself this year to be grateful to be alive and smile. Each day is harder to keep that promise. I’m being dragged to this negativity that my core, my family has, and somedays I can’t take it. My head is overwhelmed. Seeing this video makes me remember that I need to breath and calm myself down. Thanks. :)
When I’m alone for a few days at our family home, looking after the house and dog i sleep on the couch and have Mario Galaxy on the TV, i fall asleep to Mario in The Library on the Comet Observatory - its like a Sanctuary among the stars
I just turned 30, and also got laid off on the same day. My dad has cancer, my dog passed away recently, and it feels like the world is passing me by. But at least some things stay the same, like this game. Life can be real shitty sometimes, but I'm glad that I can always come back to games like this and just sit and immerse myself in happy memories. Thank you for this lovely, chill video ♥️
The moments I spent playing Mario games are some of the greatest moments of my entire life and I’m glad I got to experience it. This video made me remember those days with a smile on my face so thank you.
So many things make me think of her, somehow this is one too. I can imagine us sharing a moment like this, the silence, peace, and understanding. Take it easy guys and be careful who you give your heart to, but just the same don’t let life pass you by. It’s better to remorse than to regret
I think people would feel much better mentally if they took the time to do what Mario is doing here. There is a lot of beauty to behold in the real world. Time might not stop, but you can ignore it briefly. We call this practicing mindfulness. Simply sit back and take something in. Just be you, with your senses, experiencing the world. It's peaceful and healing.
Man ever since like April I’ve had the roughest time of my life that’s gotten progressively better through the months and each “stage” of me recovering where I feel better I always come back to see how id react, the first time I watched this is bawled my eyes out, second time I damn near did the same, third I started to actually relax and get calm to this, now I watch it again today and feel so much at peace with my recovery and it makes me so happy! So thank you so much for this upload ❤
I was really stressed out and upset since i woke up today, and when i went to try to calm down by watching some videos this popped up in my feed I tasked myself to just sit and watch the whole thing since i have issues with just doing *nothing* with minimal stimulation and...wow. 3 minutes of just nothing but focusing on the image and hearing the music and i just feel...better. as if i could have a do-over on today's overarching mood. I really need to do this more often.

It took me way too long to appreciate the nostalgic and somber beauty of this OST from Mario Galaxy. They couldn't have composed a better opening track than this! Listening to this now, as an almost 23 year old young adult, it feels like the lullaby of my childhood.
I’m going through severe depression right now! I’ve been in and out of Hospitals intermittently 3 times from the time period of May 5th - July 15th, with each time at the Hospital feeling like an oasis for me, while most if not all of the other patients wanted to get the heck out as fast as possible. I got diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder from the Hospital! This video inspired me to chill outside of my local Target store to sit on the bench and stare at the beautiful night sky for 3 hours straight while only being on my phone for probably 10 minutes total, which I’m super eager to do it again tomorrow, because it’s a really nice way for me to decompress from all of the severe stress and anxiety that I’m going through while trying my best to figure out how to deal with the root cause of a problem that I’ve been going through for the last almost 5 years straight! My mom, dad, grandma + auntie, grandpa are all gone, which makes it insanely much harder for me!
I hear this and it immediately sent me back to 2011 and being a first grader and just watching my brother play super Mario galaxy on the Wii during summer mornings . I wish things weren’t as complicated as they are now. I’m starting my second year of university away from friends and family, just getting out of a toxic divorce between my parents in which I was heavily relied on as the mediator along with keeping both my parents mentally in check, it’s definitely just a lot to handle. I definitely know there is a good way out of this and honestly I’m glad that this has all been a learning experience, but it definitely does make me feel a little sad just thinking about how beautiful the past was. I enjoyed it. I hope everyone has a good day, good life, and that content like this keeps helping old memories.
I stumbled across this video at a dark point in my life. This video felt surreal to encounter, as I often played this song in my head when I wake up--not sure where the habit came from, it just sort of happened--so I was surprised to find this video. This song, and the accompanying video, feels calming and reflective. It helped me come down from my self-analytical spiral and exist in the present moment. I'm glad someone else appreciates this song as well. Thanks for making this.
playing galaxy and hearing it’s soundtrack is something that forever chemically changed my brain and hearing it again fills it with the peace I had while playing.
Video game music is something else man, i cry sometimes hearing the sonic songs. My mom bought me those games as a kid and i wish she was here. Video games are a beautiful thing❤
Memories flood in every single time… my Wii… my childhood… my young life… all of that tucked behind easily accessible songs, it’s truly wonderful. I always think it’s strange talking about how much I love Mario galaxy but that’s just over thinking… it’s such a good game that if I get criticized there the wrong ones… being young seems like it doesn’t last long which… it really doesn’t but that doesn’t mean you can’t feel young again. I could talk about this wonderful game all day and never get bored. It’s such a key part of me… the reason why I love Nintendo, why I love games, why I love life. So just remember to always hold something special to you as close as you can cause if it slips away… that could cause more trouble than you think. I’m going to head to bed but for anyone else… don’t give up your dreams, your hopes just cause people don’t approve… goodnight/day and cya…
Despite me not physically doing anything right now, i needed this video to just slow down my brain and vibe for a couple minutes. Im so happy this appeared in my recommended tab 😭
Super mario galaxy theme, super Mario 64. That feeling that you already forgot. This is beautiful, guys, hope you are having a great Day, remember, problems are temporal, suffering goes by, but all the good memories stay with us.
TH-cam me lo puso en mi inicio y viendo los comentarios dios es increíble como un pequeño video de Mario 64 Sentado fue capaz de darle tanta paz y unos instantes de tranquilidad a muchas personas que están en sus peores días simplemente por cosas como estas me hace feliz encontrar este tipo de vídeos donde simplemente te dejas llevar :')
I love this, its the only video that makes me feel at peace, it reminds me of the good old days when i was a lil kiddo playing mario galaxy 1&2, mario bros DS, pokemon and mario 64 on the DS. Itt makes me feel serenity, thank you for posting this.
Thank you for making this video. ❤ I kinda really need this right now… I have been bottling up my emotions lately and just watching this video made me cry. If any of you don’t mind, I’ll just place this here: I really miss my childhood so much… And I missed how simple life used to be… My dad who is my best friend in the whole world who always went to cool places with me and played games with me and and would had me watch him play Wii games. Today, he got accepted into Grad School for Speech Pathology and Communication Disorders, so once he gets his Master’s Degree, he can help out people who have communication disorders. I am Autistic who because of my IEP, I learned how to adapt better with my Autism and live with it a little better. My dad can never be more proud of me which is why he wants to help people who are like me. ❤ But the whole grad school thing is going to make his schedule IMPOSSIBLY BUSY… Which means, he’ll be studying nonstop for two years. (It’s CRUCIAL to get an A, if you’re planning to work in a field for Speech Pathology.) And as much as I love him so much, I am not looking forward for two years of not having my dad be fully present because of the studying. I know it’s for the best, but the thought of two long years with all members of the household being physically present but not quite present. I don’t think I can be able to take it. Alongside with dealing with college. And lately, my mental health has been declining… I really want to just have someone to really listen to me with a warm embrace. But then again, “This is real life. Womp. Womp. Cry about it.” is what everyone else would probably say. I know my family will always support me no matter what, but I really don’t want to burden them… And I am HORRIBLE with phrasing whenever I speak, so my commentary could end up being misinterpreted as “whining”. So I try to bottle everything up, which can lead to massive irritability issues on my part. And the fact that I literally do not have insurance if I do want help is just so disheartening… Sorry if this was too long of a comment. I hope this gives at least someone here some sort of closure that we are collectively having that sense of longing to go back to simpler times. (By the way, I’m not speaking on behalf of everyone, but for the ones who would understand.) I really hope I find help and get better and feel better from dealing with such strong emotions… ❤️🩹
Edit: thanks so much for the 360 likes everyone now only if the video uploader would heart this comment A few nights ago I was with my mom and Dad was working late and I took the trash out and took my dog outside for potty and then I stopped when I was about to head back inside and it was starting to get cold outside and the traffic noise was very far away and it was dark outside and the neighborhood looked astonishingly beautiful and I stood there for a few minutes and I let my dog inside and I told Mom about outside so mom and me stood outside for a few minutes with my dog sitting by my feet and Mom said it is a nice night and Mom went back inside and it was just me and my dog outside for a few more minutes before we went back inside
I went back inside with my dog because we were getting cold but I wish I could have stayed outside longer. I didnt grab my jacket and sit outside because I felt like it would ruin the experience
This is pretty miniscule to everything else on this page, but today particularly, I was having a hell of a time convincing myself out of bed, I've been having a tough time. This video helped me out a little, I will be coming back again from time to time. Thank you. ♡
i miss him. 3 years, and we never even got the chance to cuddle or even hold hands irl. he really did have me convinced we’d be together forever and that nothing could break what we had. he was my everything. now i’m just so lost…
Not sure how this video found me, but I needed to see and feel this today. I have been so obsessed with consuming and making, that just *experiencing* is something I hardly get to do anymore. Feels like the first time I heard SeverSlvt. Like wanting to cry but not knowing how just yet. It's emotion. -love, from a struggling PhD student
It is only needed a moment, a moment to realise what has, had and will happen. Today, luckily everything has been around Super Mario Galaxy. When i was little, about 6-7 yo, i was completing this masterpiece for the first time, i was firstly surprised by how a little silly plumber game in the space could be so good, from mechanics, level design, to music; i was just a little silly boy, didnt even expect to have some relationship with games, but music is all what it takes to make this possible. Getting back to when i was about to defeat bowser for the last time, little i knew what scenes would come after beating bowser. First, surprised by how giantness and aloneless feeling could make me nostalgic even without playing it before, the universe is exploding, there is no getting back anymore. And then, The Scene. And what a scene, all the lumas sacrificing themselves so mario could get back to his land. All our little silly friends, gone, for our own good. Little i knew what that feeling music gives. After that point of the game i learned what was that feeling. Im not comparing it to losing someone but, after beating SMG2 for the first time, around 8 yo. My Wii stopped working. For context, that same wii was the first console ive played in my life, almost i was 2 years old the first time ive touched that piece of magic. Ive thought that i couldnt take it back, replay just a bit of everything i knew, replay all the final scenes from SMG. I felt it strong enough to convinve my parents to not throw it out, didnt know why, didnt know how to make it work again. Almost 8 years after, i made it work again. Last summer 2023, i did everything possible in my hand to solve the broken little heart of my 8 yo me. Bought and HDMI adapter new controller and came back to that era. I was so happy, not proud, didnt do anything apart from taking the initiative to take it down to my TV. The first 2 games ive "bought" (by "bought" everyone knows what i meaning to), were SMG and SMG2, my top 1 fav games of all time, they are not tied, they are both top 1, it is different. That initiative could not be taken if i didnt listen to both games osts. I still cry hearing them, but, in this case, im crying of happiness, im not asking for something lost. Im asking for a lost era, something impossible to achieve. A moment, just a single moment. A moment could be a second or a year. We all need a moment. Thank you, for the moment youve taken to publish this so everyone can take their moment. Thank you mario too, youve made my life better, just if we could talk to you, mario. Thanks for all, sorry for nothing
30 y/o! I have finally found my sense-of-self by completely emptying my mind and trusting whatever was meant for me would come back. As it is said, "If you love something, set it free."
Honestly, I can't listen to Mario Galaxy music nowadays without feeling intense nostalgic memories from my childhood. It feels like only a little bit ago that I was playing this game for the first time in the living room... This seems like a perfect choice to be my 2000th liked video. 🥹
This really takes me back to elementary school weekends when my brother and I would sit upstairs for hours just playing Super Mario Galaxy 2 on our wii console. I still have the game, but our console broke, so I think I’m going to secretly buy another Wii console and then surprise him for his birthday- or maybe I’ll just surprise him in general.
Wanna go back in time. In a week I'm moving out of home, 27, finally got a job, leaving a widow mom, and all I desire is to be 10 years old once again. Damn this age, damn this future, that I can't go back in time and cherish what I never truly appreciated.
listening to this takes me back to when i was younger and would always delete my save for some reason, to this day I am not sure why but I'm glad I did because I can now look back and remember the experiences I've had with this game.
I see a lot of people asking what the music is in the comments.
It's "To the Gateway" from Super Mario Galaxy.
Also holy crap I can't believe this blew up, if you subscribe please tell me what you want to see, it'd help out a ton!
EDIT: New video similar to this one, it's about my nostalgia with the Wii U, go check it out, tell me what you think, if its good, if its garbage, and what I should change the next time around th-cam.com/video/Ld9xDF7owAQ/w-d-xo.html
Thank you actually so much for putting the music title 😁 it's always such a struggle to find what music people use in thier YT videos and there is so many amazing ones like this one
More dim lighting Mario moments.
Got any other favorite games? Pokémon maybe? Hit all your favorites.
Maybe infinitely looping shorts?
Can we get an hour version of this and more Super Nintendo ambience type videos? Maybe even horror ambience Nintendo music ambience. Beautiful work!

I have a confession to make:
I saw memes of this on the Internet and thought everyone was trolling so I did the thing and it worked!
Bruh I did not excepted to actually work and worst of all the Mama doesn't even do damage on the player for doing such a thing
I am never doing that again, not because it wasn't fun. It was, but out of principal and also because I have better things to do with My Limited Time on this Earth like go see how tall the trees have grown in My City since I last saw Them

Its good to be alive. To feel cold and warm and happy and safe. To laugh and cry.
Ye the pain and sadness are as much a part of life as the few and far between happy moments. The world is a terrible place, but we have spaces like this to hide in, like a favourite comfy sofa
@@Daggerz_And_RamenUltimately, in the midst of darkness, pain and suffering, we have Jesus as our only refuge, not stuff like this.
@@Daggerz_And_Ramen The world isn't a terrible place. The world is free from moral judgement. It's us humans that construct those values and the only real pain is the one of a meaningsless existence craving deep inside our souls.
@@MohammedSelimec-xb9rh Ultimately, the world is both. It’s terrible and wonderful. In a world of dictatorship, war, apathy and hate is also beauty, community, peace and love. They all have their times. You could call me a pessimist, but the pain this world causes can just be overwhelming at times and I’ll only feel okay around 20% of the time. But everyone has different experiences
@@Daggerz_And_Ramen No the world is not both. The world is everything and nothing. Those bipolar views lay in our religious ancestry and reflect the allegedly never ending battle of good vs. evil.
I can just say it again, the world in itself is free from judgement, we are the ones constructing value systems to judge the events.
This video’s comment section alone just goes to show how impactful video game music can be, thanks for making this.
For a game that makes the music mean something, look into playing The Outer Wilds.

But it doesn’t slow down and there’s a million better ways to spend your time.
Yep. That’s how I found out that I loved the song “The Streets Of Whiterun”. Played Skyrim for years not stopping to take a breath in the game and then stopped and listened to it and realized that song is a masterpiece.

Watching this made me realize how hopeless Mario must've felt during his adventure in 64 or at least I feel like he would. Like don't you think there were just moments while he was in a mission or after he finished a really daunting one where he's just thinking "Damn I don't know if I can do this" or he just starts thinking about all the rest of the stars he has to get and gets de-motivated. Sure he has super abilities but at the end of the day he's pretty much just a normal human who has to go through these dangerous territories that just become more dangerous and difficult to navigate as the game goes on and he can't quit because he knows his friends are being held captive by bowser. I know I'm looking way too deep into a simple video game made almost 30 years ago but I just think it's interesting to think about it in that perspective.
Interesting take, I like it
Your right...
@@celestialrodentAgreed 😊
It would be nice to have someone in your life that’s been there. I’m sure Mario felt that way plenty of times!
Thank you ❤
I’m 22 now and I’m both ok and not ok. My life has never been better, and never been worse
I don't know why, but I feel this so much. Every single bit of this comment.
Same. It’s a weird limbo state
These last few years in my mid 20's have been hard for me too, even though nothing 'bad' happened... It's just the feeling of becoming a true adult, you're changing and so are the things around you. It feels like life is starting to slow down and you're accepting what your situation is. You've got less freedom and have more responsibilities weighing you down that take up your time. Some things you grew up liking seem less interesting and close friends/family grow distant. I miss being a kid/young adult for sure, never felt that sentiment now more than ever.
Don’t get stuck in nostalgia. Life can be infinitely better as you age. If you believe you’ve peaked, you’re not trying to live in the best moments there could be. Some things are better left in the past than to be scrutinized under a microscope every 10 years.
@@int0the3p1t32 great point
Is it bad that this made me cry? I don't know what it is, maybe it's the nostalgia from playing Super Mario Galaxy on my wii after receiving it for Christmas. Or maybe it's the memories of being a child and the only worry I had in life was trying to collect all of the power stars. All I know is that Super Mario Galaxy music is capable of evoking such strong emotions. Thanks for this lil masterpiece bro!
Crying is defo reasonable here
No.
yk what pal. My eyes started to water when i started listening to this... but when i read ur comment the tears started rolling
No, but I do think nostalgia is paired with it, but I still do play the game on a mario 3d all-stars pack and also made me feel melancholic or bittersweet.
Kind of feeling like I might have lost something before, but I don't know what like a piece of childhood memory or a check or turning point in life.
I guess perhaps it's just the song, which is pretty sad itself much similar to like the track Luma, that along with being paired with the gloomy yet beautiful scenic view and mario sitting alone (almost like a mourn) adds to it.
Yea that’s actually terrible if you cried to this baby stuff. Be a man.
This feels hyper-real in a way. It’s like getting glasses for the first time but with Super Mario 64 graphics, with the lighting, the low static angle, and the way the snowflakes have actual depth. I’ve also been playing B3313 a lot so to have this perspective on vanilla CCM feels like returning home.
Thanks for sharing this moment with me.
Old 3D graphics are amazing like that. I noticed that when I was playing the Resident Evil 4 Remake and the game felt like... CGI-movie? And then I went back and played the old original Resident Evil 4 and that one felt like an 80s movie with real puppets and animatronics. It's like old graphics is more real because everything is sharper and you can tell you are playing a videogame while new games makes you feel like you are not actually there - you are just watching something even though you are in control. It's so hard to explain but it's as if the less a game tries to convince you it is real - the more real it becomes.
If you haven't you should play B3313 in Retroarch with VCR style shaders on.
It really ads to the "Spaceworld 95" vibe
@@brett39747 I think that only works for 0.7 and earlier; IIRC 0.9 up don't work on Retroarch
That’s a fantastic explanation, I always felt this way about Mario Kart Wii, in my opinion it actually weirdly looks better than Mario kart 8. Mk8 is stunning of course but there’s that charm in the old games.
Now I'm imagining getting glasses that turn everything into having Mario 64 graphics
can we just appreciate this from a music theory standpoint? it's fairly simple on the surface, but there are so many key changes and starting at about 1:00 we get a new theme and a 4th voice comes in. it gets oddly complicated for how simple each melody is. just another phenomenal example of what nintendo's composers can accomplish.
As a fellow music nerd, this is proof of the under appreciation of vide game music.😊

this felt like the longest 3 minutes of my life, and it was heavenly.
Gaming has been spiritual for me throughout my growth as an individual. The mixture of the stories, the visuals, the sounds, the music, and being able to do stuff in the game all together puts you into a world of your own; one where you get to observe things that also give you insights into your own life. Videos like these have been my go-to's for this kind of thing lately. To kind of vibe out with all the characters I grew up with, knowing that my fellow gamers are doing the same as we all ride this journey through existence giving you a sense of community. Oh yeah, for sure we need lots more of these kind of things. Both short quick videos like this, and long ones that contain mixes of music that put you into the state where you can reflect on this.
I have the same feeling, games calm my anxiety and bring a lot of joy to the art that i can feel while i play
@KiboSuperStar it depends on what Game you play. If you're playing naruto storm games online or fifa Gamez. Unless you're winning you will not see peace 😂
Simply put
Thanks, all I needed was a moment. What better way than to spend it with a friend from childhood.
It's moments like these that make me realize that times have changed. The world is different now, and I've changed a lot from the days of watching this kind of content obsessively. I'm almost 18 now. Responsibilities are becoming more plentiful. I do not want to grow up, yet life chose for me. I have a boyfriend now, so many things have happened that I'm grateful for. I recently came back to sm64 to rekindle my childhood hours of the wii virtual console. Exploring the castle and it's secrets for hours on end. It's why i have such an obsession with some of the levels. The game is so surreal in a way i cannot describe. I wish i was a kid again, wandering the empty castle walls, always learning and discovering. Stay true out there everyone, and make sure to always let that kid side of you be a part in your life. Don't kill your childhood when you're older. Much love, to y'all. Peace ✌️
Life is going to get very interesting for you. Enjoy the journey.
That's a beautiful sentiment. I'm exactly double your age, and Mario 64 is part of my childhood, too. I think that's amazing that we both have such fond attachment to this game, even though we're separated by nearly two decades. Super Mario 64 reminds me of those days in my room, in the dark, with my little CRT TV and my Nintendo 64. Good times. 😊 I am glad the virtual console and simulation exists, so that classic like SM64 can be enjoyed for generations to come!
You're still a kid at 18. I didn't think I was, but here I am at 30. I deployed at 18 and thought I was an adult. I was just a kid, I knew nothing and trusted the adults around me who told me to grow up before my time and to deal with a world of problems I didn't make in ways that were contraindicated by the morals I was taught as a kid. Don't be so quick to grow up kid, take the time to learn and experience the innocence of the world before it's ripped from you violently.
It’s awesome how games that I played in my childhood on original hardware have been played by other kids on newer platforms. These amazing games should be enjoyed by current and coming generations of kids, which is why game preservation is a big topic for many.

I recently started to play on my old 3ds Mario and Luigi dream team, I don't know why I decided to do that, I Just... Remember the game after years withouth playing. While playing, I started to Remember so many things from the past... Those times when my cousins and me played the game for hours... My 5 years old me didn't even know how to play, so I always asked for help to my older cousin, he teach me how to play it, and many other Mario games. Everytime I looked his way to play...make me look him like a god of videogames. Now, It's me the one Who plays the game like that, or perhaps even better... Every part from the game, Every music and Every place remind me diferente things from Those times... I don't realized until these days the diferent that I'am, the diferent that the world is Now. Back in then, I always tried to be the Best in school, I did'nt has friends, I Just entertained playing Mario games withouth worries... Now, I don't even care for the school, I have a couple Who has problems that I Will not say here for respect. I still play Mario games, but Now I can't play for the entire Day, because I need to work Hard in life projects to have a better life for me and my cojple in the future. But these days... I gave me a little vacations to play all the Day Mario and luigi like the old times...
This video Just apeared in my recomended, and I feel that it fits Just so well for these moments.
I don't know, all of This make me think about how the world and the persons can change, and how diferent can be your life today if you compare it with your life in the future, This also make me think how you need to apreciate the simple things in the life, today could look like something silly or not important, but tomorrow... It could be a precious memory...
I don't know why I write This, It's 3:00 A. M. here, but I see many coments from that style and... I Just feel I need to leave mine too

You've reminded me of dream team, and I'm definitely going to back to play it again.
Don't worry about your grammar it's pretty much perfect. I get you though I wished I spent my younger years with family more but now most of them have moved away, and while I still see them a good amount it's just not the same really as when I was a carefree little kid. I totally get you on how its important to emphasize what's going on right now and remeber. Wish you the best man❤
someone like this so I can come back here please, never thought I’d be that person but here we are cuz I really really like this video
Here's your three month reminder to just sit back and vibe
I just want to go back to the good times... when there weren't any problems to worry about. Relaxing in the living room, playing Mario Galaxy on my Wii. Now here I am, about to finish high school and going into college. It makes me excited for the future, but it also makes me sad. Sometimes I ponder in my bedroom, thinking about life, and how I want to go back sometimes. But this is part of life. You need to cherish every single second of it, because in the end, it is just a precious memory.
This seems like a checkpoint, something life gives you after a nice week and you just stop and rest.
I picked up super Mario 64 again two days ago. It was one of my first memories, watching my brother play whomp’s fortress before we went to the kitchen to eat pancakes that mom made. When I was little I wasn’t good at games and rarely finished them until I was at least 18; then I started actually playing things through to the end. I’m almost 30 now, and I can play games much better than I used to. I’m trying to get every star and I’m so happy whenever I see more stars fill out in each stage.
So much has changed, and yet stayed the same. Dire Dire Docks/Jolly Roger Bay soundtrack is still my favourite song in the whole world. I paint pictures of the sea, and my whole life I’ve yearned to be underwater like the secret stage. In my dreams I’m wandering through funny rooms similar to the liminal space like areas of Peach’s Castle - that’s why I’ve always found them comforting rather than scary. I never realized how much comfort SM64 has given me through my life and it’s a magical space I can visit whenever I want. But not to go back in time - I made the choice to go forward. And I choose to bring these happy memories with me in the journey ahead and use them to create more beauty and comfort.
This is gonna be a new checkpoint

Might be due to listening to this at midnight, but it makes me feel so relaxed and tired that I almost feel like I could be sucked right into the world. The night sky, the falling snow, the glowing lights, the _music_ , all of it was very lulling, and I imagined being in Mario’s place, sitting on an abandoned bridge in the brisk cold, gazing at the event of glowing snow that happens on Cool Cool Mountain at nighttime…
Thank you so much for the beautiful video! 😁
Just hit 21 years of age yesterday. I’ve made a lot of progress now that I’m about 20% into the game.

I still have a lot to figure out, but I really want to let myself slow down and enjoy the time I have left. I'll still be making the effort to save a lot of money up for college, but I can't let the last few months of my childhood past me by. I just hope all the decisions I make are good ones for me.
Hope you enjoy the rest of your childhood and do well in college❤

Bro… I remember they had a thing at Walmart when I was younger where you could play Super Mario Galaxy. It was such an amazing time and I remember wanting the game so bad. That Christmas I ended up getting a Wii and the game. Legendary. This music literally sent shivers of nostalgia through my entire being. Thank you for such a subtle yet large reminder of a sweet time in my life.
Today is my birthday, and it hit me that im not ready to grow up. I feel like life has blown past me, and i can only sit back and watch.

hey dude. i turned 22 over a week ago and with secondary school certificate achieved and onto a diploma. I just feel lost, i feel like my last 5 years have gone completely down the drain. the stuff im doing is extremely hard, and my family won't let me just up and at it quit to go work fulltime. Ive been almost broke the last few years aswell because of school. I hope my friends don't think im a freeloader, i miss being a kid with no responsibilities

This video just gives you a moment to reflect on all of the Mario games you’ve played, the memories you’ve had, and Nintendo as a whole.
Mario Galaxy's OST is such a masterpiece. I often go back to playlists to study or work with it, but never really to take a moment for myself.
So, thank you for this. Many appreciate it.
Tough times in my life right now…
I’m on the verge of bad thoughts, my family is in dispute of most nonsense sh!t…. And I just propose to myself this year to be grateful to be alive and smile.
Each day is harder to keep that promise. I’m being dragged to this negativity that my core, my family has, and somedays I can’t take it.
My head is overwhelmed. Seeing this video makes me remember that I need to breath and calm myself down. Thanks. :)
When I’m alone for a few days at our family home, looking after the house and dog i sleep on the couch and have Mario Galaxy on the TV, i fall asleep to Mario in The Library on the Comet Observatory - its like a Sanctuary among the stars
I just turned 30, and also got laid off on the same day. My dad has cancer, my dog passed away recently, and it feels like the world is passing me by.
But at least some things stay the same, like this game. Life can be real shitty sometimes, but I'm glad that I can always come back to games like this and just sit and immerse myself in happy memories.
Thank you for this lovely, chill video ♥️
I'm so sorry to hear that... I hope you're doing okay ❤
Keep struggling forward and don’t give up
The moments I spent playing Mario games are some of the greatest moments of my entire life and I’m glad I got to experience it.
This video made me remember those days with a smile on my face so thank you.
this entire video feels like a checkpoint, like before or after making a big decision
Every second you can never get back, and yet, wasting them here doesn't feel like a waste. It's like it was meant to be.
videos like these truly goes to show you the wonderful impact video games like mario have had on so many people that have played them.
So many things make me think of her, somehow this is one too. I can imagine us sharing a moment like this, the silence, peace, and understanding. Take it easy guys and be careful who you give your heart to, but just the same don’t let life pass you by. It’s better to remorse than to regret
I think people would feel much better mentally if they took the time to do what Mario is doing here. There is a lot of beauty to behold in the real world. Time might not stop, but you can ignore it briefly. We call this practicing mindfulness. Simply sit back and take something in. Just be you, with your senses, experiencing the world. It's peaceful and healing.
Man ever since like April I’ve had the roughest time of my life that’s gotten progressively better through the months and each “stage” of me recovering where I feel better I always come back to see how id react, the first time I watched this is bawled my eyes out, second time I damn near did the same, third I started to actually relax and get calm to this, now I watch it again today and feel so much at peace with my recovery and it makes me so happy! So thank you so much for this upload ❤
idk why i've been avoiding watching this video for the past month.
I do the same thing for a lot of other videos lmfao
I was really stressed out and upset since i woke up today, and when i went to try to calm down by watching some videos this popped up in my feed
I tasked myself to just sit and watch the whole thing since i have issues with just doing *nothing* with minimal stimulation and...wow. 3 minutes of just nothing but focusing on the image and hearing the music and i just feel...better. as if i could have a do-over on today's overarching mood. I really need to do this more often.

It took me way too long to appreciate the nostalgic and somber beauty of this OST from Mario Galaxy. They couldn't have composed a better opening track than this! Listening to this now, as an almost 23 year old young adult, it feels like the lullaby of my childhood.

I’ve been in and out of Hospitals intermittently 3 times from the time period of May 5th - July 15th, with each time at the Hospital feeling like an oasis for me, while most if not all of the other patients wanted to get the heck out as fast as possible.
I got diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder from the Hospital!
This video inspired me to chill outside of my local Target store to sit on the bench and stare at the beautiful night sky for 3 hours straight while only being on my phone for probably 10 minutes total, which I’m super eager to do it again tomorrow, because it’s a really nice way for me to decompress from all of the severe stress and anxiety that I’m going through while trying my best to figure out how to deal with the root cause of a problem that I’ve been going through for the last almost 5 years straight!
My mom, dad, grandma + auntie, grandpa are all gone, which makes it insanely much harder for me!
Thanks for the reminder to enjoy the small things. Good memories, deep breaths, and finding comfort where i am now.
This just has the feeling of “Internet Checkpoint V2”
I have to be better.
I have to be more than the aftermath of my trauma.
I have to be what he survived for.
grow up lmao

I hear this and it immediately sent me back to 2011 and being a first grader and just watching my brother play super Mario galaxy on the Wii during summer mornings . I wish things weren’t as complicated as they are now. I’m starting my second year of university away from friends and family, just getting out of a toxic divorce between my parents in which I was heavily relied on as the mediator along with keeping both my parents mentally in check, it’s definitely just a lot to handle. I definitely know there is a good way out of this and honestly I’m glad that this has all been a learning experience, but it definitely does make me feel a little sad just thinking about how beautiful the past was. I enjoyed it.
I hope everyone has a good day, good life, and that content like this keeps helping old memories.
fell sleep to this yesterday, never fell asleep that peacefully in a long time
I am so stressed recently with work and school… I’m glad I could sit beside Mario and listen to this… really calms me down
If the world collapsed, I would take a moment and listen, as a new journey shall begin, thank you for the dopamine, this reminds me of a lost memory.
I stumbled across this video at a dark point in my life. This video felt surreal to encounter, as I often played this song in my head when I wake up--not sure where the habit came from, it just sort of happened--so I was surprised to find this video. This song, and the accompanying video, feels calming and reflective. It helped me come down from my self-analytical spiral and exist in the present moment. I'm glad someone else appreciates this song as well. Thanks for making this.
Anyone else get these types of videos late at night?
playing galaxy and hearing it’s soundtrack is something that forever chemically changed my brain and hearing it again fills it with the peace I had while playing.
Video game music is something else man, i cry sometimes hearing the sonic songs. My mom bought me those games as a kid and i wish she was here. Video games are a beautiful thing❤
God this comment hit me so hard
Memories flood in every single time… my Wii… my childhood… my young life… all of that tucked behind easily accessible songs, it’s truly wonderful. I always think it’s strange talking about how much I love Mario galaxy but that’s just over thinking… it’s such a good game that if I get criticized there the wrong ones… being young seems like it doesn’t last long which… it really doesn’t but that doesn’t mean you can’t feel young again. I could talk about this wonderful game all day and never get bored. It’s such a key part of me… the reason why I love Nintendo, why I love games, why I love life. So just remember to always hold something special to you as close as you can cause if it slips away… that could cause more trouble than you think. I’m going to head to bed but for anyone else… don’t give up your dreams, your hopes just cause people don’t approve… goodnight/day and cya…
Despite me not physically doing anything right now, i needed this video to just slow down my brain and vibe for a couple minutes.
Im so happy this appeared in my recommended tab 😭
Super mario galaxy theme, super Mario 64. That feeling that you already forgot.
This is beautiful, guys, hope you are having a great Day, remember, problems are temporal, suffering goes by, but all the good memories stay with us.
TH-cam me lo puso en mi inicio y viendo los comentarios dios es increíble como un pequeño video de Mario 64 Sentado fue capaz de darle tanta paz y unos instantes de tranquilidad a muchas personas que están en sus peores días simplemente por cosas como estas me hace feliz encontrar este tipo de vídeos donde simplemente te dejas llevar :')
I love this, its the only video that makes me feel at peace, it reminds me of the good old days when i was a lil kiddo playing mario galaxy 1&2, mario bros DS, pokemon and mario 64 on the DS. Itt makes me feel serenity, thank you for posting this.
Thank you for making this video. ❤
I kinda really need this right now…
I have been bottling up my emotions lately and just watching this video made me cry.
If any of you don’t mind, I’ll just place this here:
I really miss my childhood so much…
And I missed how simple life used to be…
My dad who is my best friend in the whole world who always went to cool places with me and played games with me and and would had me watch him play Wii games.
Today, he got accepted into Grad School for Speech Pathology and Communication Disorders, so once he gets his Master’s Degree, he can help out people who have communication disorders. I am Autistic who because of my IEP, I learned how to adapt better with my Autism and live with it a little better. My dad can never be more proud of me which is why he wants to help people who are like me. ❤
But the whole grad school thing is going to make his schedule IMPOSSIBLY BUSY… Which means, he’ll be studying nonstop for two years. (It’s CRUCIAL to get an A, if you’re planning to work in a field for Speech Pathology.)
And as much as I love him so much, I am not looking forward for two years of not having my dad be fully present because of the studying. I know it’s for the best, but the thought of two long years with all members of the household being physically present but not quite present. I don’t think I can be able to take it. Alongside with dealing with college. And lately, my mental health has been declining…
I really want to just have someone to really listen to me with a warm embrace. But then again, “This is real life. Womp. Womp. Cry about it.” is what everyone else would probably say. I know my family will always support me no matter what, but I really don’t want to burden them… And I am HORRIBLE with phrasing whenever I speak, so my commentary could end up being misinterpreted as “whining”. So I try to bottle everything up, which can lead to massive irritability issues on my part. And the fact that I literally do not have insurance if I do want help is just so disheartening…
Sorry if this was too long of a comment. I hope this gives at least someone here some sort of closure that we are collectively having that sense of longing to go back to simpler times.
(By the way, I’m not speaking on behalf of everyone, but for the ones who would understand.)
I really hope I find help and get better and feel better from dealing with such strong emotions… ❤️🩹
I hope you can find someone to talk to, and once he's done, I hope you both can hang out again like before. You've got this!
My stress headache went away . Thank you ! I really needed this ❤

A few nights ago I was with my mom and Dad was working late and I took the trash out and took my dog outside for potty and then I stopped when I was about to head back inside and it was starting to get cold outside and the traffic noise was very far away and it was dark outside and the neighborhood looked astonishingly beautiful and I stood there for a few minutes and I let my dog inside and I told Mom about outside so mom and me stood outside for a few minutes with my dog sitting by my feet and Mom said it is a nice night and Mom went back inside and it was just me and my dog outside for a few more minutes before we went back inside
💙
You found something
Love this comment feel like we often forget how nice things around us rly are all we gotta do is stop for a bit and appreciate it
I went back inside with my dog because we were getting cold but I wish I could have stayed outside longer. I didnt grab my jacket and sit outside because I felt like it would ruin the experience
I love those little moments. Always cherish them!
This is pretty miniscule to everything else on this page, but today particularly, I was having a hell of a time convincing myself out of bed, I've been having a tough time. This video helped me out a little, I will be coming back again from time to time. Thank you. ♡
for a moment, i became weightless
i miss him. 3 years, and we never even got the chance to cuddle or even hold hands irl. he really did have me convinced we’d be together forever and that nothing could break what we had. he was my everything.
now i’m just so lost…
Not sure how this video found me, but I needed to see and feel this today. I have been so obsessed with consuming and making, that just *experiencing* is something I hardly get to do anymore. Feels like the first time I heard SeverSlvt. Like wanting to cry but not knowing how just yet. It's emotion.

It is only needed a moment, a moment to realise what has, had and will happen. Today, luckily everything has been around Super Mario Galaxy.
When i was little, about 6-7 yo, i was completing this masterpiece for the first time, i was firstly surprised by how a little silly plumber game in the space could be so good, from mechanics, level design, to music; i was just a little silly boy, didnt even expect to have some relationship with games, but music is all what it takes to make this possible. Getting back to when i was about to defeat bowser for the last time, little i knew what scenes would come after beating bowser. First, surprised by how giantness and aloneless feeling could make me nostalgic even without playing it before, the universe is exploding, there is no getting back anymore. And then, The Scene. And what a scene, all the lumas sacrificing themselves so mario could get back to his land. All our little silly friends, gone, for our own good. Little i knew what that feeling music gives. After that point of the game i learned what was that feeling.
Im not comparing it to losing someone but, after beating SMG2 for the first time, around 8 yo. My Wii stopped working. For context, that same wii was the first console ive played in my life, almost i was 2 years old the first time ive touched that piece of magic. Ive thought that i couldnt take it back, replay just a bit of everything i knew, replay all the final scenes from SMG. I felt it strong enough to convinve my parents to not throw it out, didnt know why, didnt know how to make it work again. Almost 8 years after, i made it work again. Last summer 2023, i did everything possible in my hand to solve the broken little heart of my 8 yo me. Bought and HDMI adapter new controller and came back to that era. I was so happy, not proud, didnt do anything apart from taking the initiative to take it down to my TV. The first 2 games ive "bought" (by "bought" everyone knows what i meaning to), were SMG and SMG2, my top 1 fav games of all time, they are not tied, they are both top 1, it is different. That initiative could not be taken if i didnt listen to both games osts. I still cry hearing them, but, in this case, im crying of happiness, im not asking for something lost. Im asking for a lost era, something impossible to achieve.
A moment, just a single moment. A moment could be a second or a year. We all need a moment. Thank you, for the moment youve taken to publish this so everyone can take their moment. Thank you mario too, youve made my life better, just if we could talk to you, mario.
Thanks for all, sorry for nothing
That's a long comment!
Thank you so much for uploading this.
I should slow down and relax.

30 y/o! I have finally found my sense-of-self by completely emptying my mind and trusting whatever was meant for me would come back.

You’re not 30.

Honestly, I can't listen to Mario Galaxy music nowadays without feeling intense nostalgic memories from my childhood. It feels like only a little bit ago that I was playing this game for the first time in the living room...
This seems like a perfect choice to be my 2000th liked video. 🥹
This really takes me back to elementary school weekends when my brother and I would sit upstairs for hours just playing Super Mario Galaxy 2 on our wii console.
I still have the game, but our console broke, so I think I’m going to secretly buy another Wii console and then surprise him for his birthday- or maybe I’ll just surprise him in general.
Wanna go back in time. In a week I'm moving out of home, 27, finally got a job, leaving a widow mom, and all I desire is to be 10 years old once again. Damn this age, damn this future, that I can't go back in time and cherish what I never truly appreciated.
listening to this takes me back to when i was younger and would always delete my save for some reason, to this day I am not sure why but I'm glad I did because I can now look back and remember the experiences I've had with this game.
