It's an Argentinian Tango called "El Choclo", i'm from Argentina and yes i think the soundtrack of this game is pure art, you gotta love the final level song, its the 3rd movement from the moonlight sonata. I like many of the songs in this game but i have my favourites too ;)

one example is when jim dies. when he falls on the ground, he's supposed to make a cartoon-like sound effect. as heard in the genesis version. but in the super nintendo version, all you hear when he hits the ground is just a strange "tick" sound
Sounded like they were about to sing something at the begining of this game. I wish I could've heard the rest of the song before you started playing the game. Ooo bop bop, dooby do wop bop!
I threw this game through the my basement window when I was young during the hitting the balloon across the sky level. Now I find out it was only the middle of the game.
@@timothyroehm4307 Really depends on your taste. If you prefer an fast paced action platformer, then you will love EWJ more than it's successor. However, if you enjoy something that has a slower pace and creative gimmicks, then you would conclude that EWJ 2 surpassed it's predecessor. I happen to be among the people who think that EWJ 2 is superior.
You couldn't compare snes processor to sega genesis one only by MHZ because they don't share same architecture...Snes processor in single 16bits instruction performs about 1,5 mips while sega genesis 1.38mips...it means snes one is actually way faster in 16bits mode for non complex software like most game in that time...What get sega genesis faster than snes are its DMA and gpu.
Okami™ Good answer if it was possible...Z80 works as sound controller...even game like sonic one didn't use z80 as sound processor...the sound driver was in m68000...you could even sync the two CPU's but since Z80 is a 8 bit processor this means z80 MHz has to be divided by two to performs 16bits and M68000 will have to be reduced in speed to follow z80...mips in this case will be drastically diminished...unless you prove that I'm wrong
Okami™ Ok...But I don't believe that...M68000 and z80 was intentionally put together to work distinctly and not on same task....m68000 is superior than Ricoh 5A22 when it comes to complex software because it has more register for multi purpose and they're 32bit...good for advanced graphics like poligon-based...but for simple games like majorities of that time, performance is quite same...as I said the far faster DMA and GPU of mega drive are responsible for the marketing of blasting processor...I won't force you to believe but it is true
I remember that first level being impossibly difficult for me - Couldn't get past the first part, was very very confused. I was about 3 or 4 years old :P
After all these years, I have just noticed that the Puppy Love music (10:06) is the wedding theme from The Godfather (th-cam.com/video/OUhRBTpVSc0/w-d-xo.html). Shiny Entertainment was a goldmine for some of the finest pop-culture references in history.
I wonder why the "Press Start" button in menu hasn't the jumping animation in the style of all menu lines? Jim 1 menu hasn't this... bug? or it's not a bug?

Ah, the 90s. Nothing made sense and everything was awesome.
I hope earthworm jim gets to be friends with toejam and earl.
In late 90s my country fell apart and suffered big civil war and was bombarded by NATO so maybe it was "awesome" only for you murricans

Always loved the graphics in the console Earthworm Jim games. So crisp and detailed.
До сих пор является одной из любимых игр!Оч крутая игра!
Earthworm Jim is the best platfrom game ever!
It was one of the first games that I ever beat to the end (with help from a friend down the street)
The soundtrack of this game is pure art, my favourite is udderly abducted

16:19 "Moonlight Sonata - Ludwig van Beethoven" best soundtrack
Only as an adult do I realize just how much drugs the developers of this game must have been on to create this deranged masterpiece of my childhood.
when games were games and not fucking interactive movies.
go play "Pong" be happy

So, this is all about cows!
This game is so much more tougher than the first
Those filing cabinets scared the hell out of me as a child.
Even that cow in the cutscene creeps me out 😳😳😳

Geez that puppy level goes on FOREVER!
Wow, I forgot how often the entire game dynamics changed from level to level. The programmers probably hated the team doing concept.

Genesis does!
The music of this game is out of this world! Amazing!! 🛸🛸💪
QUE PEDAZO DE JUEGAZO que era este JIM 2
this game made my gaming experience when I was young : D
The amount of puppies saved by Earthworm Jim can increase the world dog population by 20% by the time the puppies reach maturity.

Its Ez you Just need the Sandwich in the previous level which is easy to get and you Just have to hit the rockets
This was my fav game as a kid
16:16 siempre pense que era jim sin el traje xDDD
that one person who disliked this obviously never played this game.
G0deh :Or doesn’t like this game because it sucks compared to the first one! Remember opinions!!!
@@timothyroehm4307 its superior to the First one in every way bro

Is that a clone of princess what's her name in the opening, I remember her getting squashed by a cow and incinerated in the 1st EWJ.
I hope they also release an HD version of this like they did with Earthworm Jim 1.
3:39 HARDEST BOSS EVA
Yeah it took me forever to beat him here's the strategy do nothing
that's not hard
R/wooooooooosh for you, Brandon Montes
i heard every one died on him
Brandon Montes :It’s called a sarcasm.
Moonlight Sonata sounds so nostalgic now.
i freaking love the salamander stage ah such an awsome memories :D
Why the Salamander Cave has that sad music? Moonlight sonate. And why is he so helpless there? What happened there?
Jim disguised himself as Blind Sally in order to traverse the living Intestinal Planet.
The jumping closet in iso 9000 stage awesome 🤣
MashAllah, inget pas masa kecil, tahun 2000
Moonlight sonata @16:19 nice stuff i like how they pay homage to these tunes
Achiviment: crazy+awesome = crasome and a y in the end for this creative word just for fun 😄
It's quite amazing what can be done with just 72kB of RAM )8kB of which was shared with the Z80...)
2,58mhz, it runs @3,58 only with fast rom .
In Sega genesis ram is used most as cache for variables...game inside rom could be accessed directly from it by gpu...ram in this case no matter

Thank you for the video. Worm Jim is still good in the cartoon of the same name. I recommend to everyone.
Jim coolest eathworm ever.
I believe best game on sega
I remember that first level being impossibly difficult for me - Couldn't get past the first part, was very very confused. I was about 3 or 4 years old :P
This game has one of the funniest endings I've seen. :D
The hardest game EVAH!
Jim's now a blind cave salamander!
See Jim run
Run Jim run
Sweet memories of this game in the 90s
the only downside to the Genesis version was no support for the 6-button controller so you couldn't change weapons like in the SNES version.
Tap start briefly
@@thejervis86 Does this really work on the Genesis version?
2:02 imagine if one of the nannies was Mary Poppins.
She'd use her umbrella to float down safety before crashing to her death.😅
oh dat memories :(
I like it so much when i was young, and now too :)
Almost the toughest

A melhor versão desse jogo é essa aí que estão precisando
I must say it would've been great to have every puppy saved.
I wonder why the "Press Start" button in menu hasn't the jumping animation in the style of all menu lines? Jim 1 menu hasn't this... bug? or it's not a bug?
It's Not A Bug
Oh, game creator when in puppy love when puppy reaches zero how am i gonna dodge the wild dog?
the music! and the escenarios! .. omg!
The furthest I got back in the day was to that BBQ level, but I was really low and health and lives to died quickly.

have you ever tried to get everything thats within the level believe me it takes some doing
I just qant to say 1 word.

PLASMA
the flying king was a pain in the ass!!
haha Epic Game :) The part with the dogs been thrown out of the house was hilarious xD 0:10:00
ISO 9000 always stuck with me as a kid.
The squish sound, if you drop a puppy, on puppy love level, earthworm jim 2, sounds better on the gameboy advance. It's hilarious
In the first level, if you drop a pig and leave him, he'll wave and then meditate, floating into the sky. That is just so funny!!
10:23 Theme from Naples
ShaundiDJ where exactly is that from
What's the better version of THIS game, SNES or Genesis? I'm choosin between these two.
+Okami™ Good, because I like the music in this version more.
+Okami™ The Earthworm Jim 1 Is Available For Snes Version
Earthworm Jim for the Sega Saturn is the best version but I would go with Genesis over Snes.
Wow, you did it very well
how i wish sega dominate again the gaming world
this is epic nostalgia!
Level Ate always makes me want a giant breakfast.
The first boss fight has the same sound effect twice
This is slower because this Mega Drive ran at 50 Hz
In PAL territories yes, but in Japan and in North America, we were accustomed to 60 Hz.
@Bloodreign1 The north of japan has 50hz but the south has 60hz
Are you sure? I don't recall that, but what kind of problems was it?
Oh how I hated Puppy Love 😂
me gusta la musica del nivel 1
World of Paperwork!
That's just "Funiculi, Funicula", one of the most widely known tarantellas; both The Godfather and EWJ2 use it.
ahh yed the old jimbo classic th amount of hours of my young life dpent on here is unbelivable but not wasted! surley they can make a ps3 jim!
Say what you want about the Genesis version, but I like it more than the SNES version.
aweesome gameplay dude nice game indeed
Is this your first time playing this?
if they wouldve added the option to change weapons in the genesis version it wouldve been much better
its still a good version tho
i'm glad you chose the genesis version. the super nintendo version has sound byte problems
whats the name of the song on mission 4
you mean the moonlight sonata?
Hey, I recognize that - it's called LEVOLUTION
Makes me wanna go to Denny's or something. Maybe that was their plan.
Wait, no Forked?
