8 or Super Mario Kart would be last place, since they're the only two tracks to not have a proper Luigi track. I'd say DS deserves the top spot, for having Boston Building and GBA Luigi Circuit.
9:01 this one hurt a lot. the piano and how low it is gives almost a mysterious yet powerful feeling that almost makes it beautiful in way, just like the course itself
Yea honestly, ngl. This is prolly one of the firsts lists from him that I’m just gonna completely disagree with as a person who has played this game for almost a decade.
Also, the segment about Super Circuit RR that starts at 6:18. It literally has the best climax in a Rainbow Road theme apart from MK64 (which is reused by MK7 RR).

@@thekiss2083 Also, it's just the 10 second climax before the loop that features the Gusty Garden Galaxy leitmotif. It's a neat homage and the rest of the track is original, even though it's strongly influenced by Gusty Garden. And you can't compare this to a track that took SMW's Ghost House theme and did nothing with it, making it one of the least fitting Mario Kart music.
59:30 THANK YOU!! I’ve been saying for _years_ that 8’s Bowser’s Castle is the best Bowser song we’ve gotten so far. It’s a perfect mixture of imitating heavy metal and cool and upbeat jazz that capture both sides of his personality.
Really appreciate the slight move toward more video game and live-action film analysis. The animation stuff is great, but I can sense a greater passion from you in the Mario Kart videos or the filmography rankings so it's good to see you lean into that!

1:02:07 you seem to be mistaken. The course shown here is cloud top cruise Jr. Which uses sky gardens music for some reason. There is no sky garden in mario kart 8
I personally put Big Blue above Mute City for one single, yet oh so big, reason: The "final section" version. That concussive blast of saxophone kicks me square in the groin every time I hear it, and it cranks my neurons into freaking overdrive for the rest of the race! And it's not just the saxophone that makes it so spectacular; the back-and-forth solo battle between it and that positively SHREDDING electric guitar, with even the drums and bass getting their time to shine, keeps the tension high and the adrenaline pumping. It is, in my mind, the greatest BGM in Mario Kart history.

Im SO glad that Schaffs number 1 is the same as mine! I seriously thought I was the only one who that was hands down the best song in the Mario Kart Series. Hooray for me!
Shout out to Grumble Volcano and that perfectly timed intense chorus that plays alongside the volcano erupting in the first lap while you avoid the barrage of fire balls
16:02 I get to bust out the nerd emoji 🤓🤓 Actually Schaff, the Donut Plains song in 8 has the whistle, but you need to front run in 1st place to hear it.
Moonview Highyway deserves THAT spot, is just as perfect as a song can be. I was obsessed with the WII version as a child, once i discovered the internet i was fascinated I could listen to it without having to turn on the wii and stay tin that track in time trials, i could NOT stop listening to it. When Moonview Highway was announced to be in the DLC packages, i was happy solely cause I loved the song and wanted to hear it remastered. The fact that both idorations of the song are a 10/10, and the final solo drums was added, blew me away. PD: I run marathons, and I always put that song on whenever im 5 kilometers away from finishing, 30 minutes of glory before ending.
You know the music is exceptional when it can single handedly fool people into thinking that things are actually happening during a race on Moonview Highway in MK8
Percussionists when somebody can't tell the difference between a flippydootittledeedeebrophone & a glurkenspikertickledicklepicklepiel (I'm percussionists)
@@RByers404Idk why, but as a percussionist, I'm randomly reminded of a time someone said to someone "The difference between these snare drums is this one reminds people of the military and this one gives you tinnitus if you don't wear ear protection", which I'd say is an accurate way to describe the difference between a stage snare drum and a field snare drum :v
I'm loving the sandwich arc already. Really looking forward to where it goes! Also, every time you ask a sarcastic/rhetorical question, I have to resist the overwhelming urge to yell "Shoot them with the dehydration gun!"
noticing a really strong theme throughout the very lowest-ranked ones: they’ve almost all been from genres that don’t focus on melody, besides the ghost tracks (and Boardwalk is still an example of what I’m thinking of). there’s a lot of percussive stuff down there, some drum-n-bass, some looping arpeggios at the front of the mix, much more rhythm than lead. a bunch of them I really get though, they don’t exactly give the mood you’d expect from Mario Kart.
It is in that special category of songs that 90% of people will probbaly not like, or straight up hate, but those that love it are obsessed with it. You can have a seat at the table with us original Los Angeles Laps music fans.
@@rootbourne4454 The track I can understrand, it's such a weird theme for a track. Ok so it's an Ice World we race through? NAH make it Rosalina's for no apparent reason! I'd have appreciated if we got an actual Rosalina track instead of whatever that track is supposed to be. Have us race around the Observatory and my money is YOURS.
Personally, I couldn't believe how low Sky High Sundae was. I feel that song goes SO HARD for an ice cream track! The bassline and the drums are INSANE!! So I wasn't expecting it place lower than 100 but we all have our tastes.
As unintersesting as the racetrack it's based on imo. I have played this track at least 25 times by now and it STILL isn't memorable enough so that it stays in my head for more than 3 minutes afterwards
Great ranking, got to go back to your top pick, because honestly that one doesn’t stand out to me. Something I really love is how you have matched the racer to the track in your clips, such a nice touch!
I actually really like the frantic, almost overwhelming songs, like Banshee Boardwalk and Grumble Volcano, because they bear down on you so much. Admittedly, Ninja Hideaway does this concept much better, but it feels repetitive to me.
HEY, _PUNK,_ THIS IS MY COMMENT You stole it from the comments section of GWallPro's "All 123 Mario Kart SONGS Ranked With 1 Word!" I mean, my opinion still stands, but like, get your own. Loser.
This is my comment! You took it from "All 123 Mario Kart SONGS Ranked With 1 Word!", you creep! It doesn't even make that much sense here, considering it was a rebuttal to how low both of those songs were ranked in GWallPro's original video, versus the places they're all ranked here. Get your own opinion, ya phony crook!
When i heard you were making another Mario Kart Ranking i KNEW you would be ranking the songs. Surprisingly not many others have done it before, the stand out for me being Fred the Monty Mole who has musical knowledge and uses music technicalities but still keeps it very accesible for most people (Also you should totally check out his medleys, specially the Kirby Bosses and Mario Kart tracks ones; and also his Paper Mario boss themes ranking. He has a criminally underrated channel)
@@TicTacToeCraft Idk go ask him yourself on one of his streams lmao. Also long videos usually take time, he's probably working on another ranking or medley on the background give him some tome
Legit, the songs are one of my favorite part of each track. My favorites are, in no particular order: Waluigi Stadium (original), DK Summit (original), Wii Rainbow Road (Wii and 8 versions), Sydney Sprint, Accelerated Toilet, Yoshi's Island, N64 Rainbow Road (8 version), Mount Wario and Ice Ice Outpost, among a few others
I’d agree that DS’s Shroom Ridge isn’t much more than “Optimistic”, but MK8 Deluxe’s rendition of Shroom Ridge is easily my favorite theme in any Mario kart game. I’d describe it as "Exhilarating"!
Speaking as someone who loves the original Shroom Ridge's music anyway, the remix just takes things to a whole new level! Glad to see it up in S tier (and even managing to be a slot above Mount Wario!)
Toads factory is not only my favourite song in the mariokart series but also just my favourite track hands down so I’m so Happy to see he put it so high
Gotta say, when the word "excellent" is used to describe a song in _104th place,_ you know a series has an absolutely amazing OST.

This is one of those lists that i can respect, like violin biasas and bits of nostalgia , but with so much variety in instrumentation and styles in mk, it would be impossible to agree to even a top 10 , great vid
Im SO glad that Schaffs number 1 is the same as mine! I seriously thought I was the only one who that was hands down the best song in the Mario Kart Series. Hooray for me!
WOOOO THE SCHAFFRILLAS 6 I’M SO HYPED!!!
Shout out to Grumble Volcano and that perfectly timed intense chorus that plays alongside the volcano erupting in the first lap while you avoid the barrage of fire balls
I really needed this today Schaff, thank you for this gift
I've just finished binging ur whole mario kart series and you drop THIS??!!
TWISTED MANSION THAT LOW IS INSANE
This is the ranking I‘ve been waiting for!
You deserve jail time for putting Waluigi Pinball at 94.
absolutely, that should be a crime
nah totally deserved imo
@@resoundingthudNah, calling Waluigi's Pinball theme not iconic as the track it's a pretty sh*tty take IMO
This guy has poor tastes
Overrated
@@resoundingthud Nah, saying that Waluigi's Pinball theme is not iconic as the track itself, it's a BS take
This guy has poor taste
16:02 I get to bust out the nerd emoji
🤓🤓 Actually Schaff, the Donut Plains song in 8 has the whistle, but you need to front run in 1st place to hear it.
Moonview Highyway deserves THAT spot, is just as perfect as a song can be.
I was obsessed with the WII version as a child, once i discovered the internet i was fascinated I could listen to it without having to turn on the wii and stay tin that track in time trials, i could NOT stop listening to it.
When Moonview Highway was announced to be in the DLC packages, i was happy solely cause I loved the song and wanted to hear it remastered. The fact that both idorations of the song are a 10/10, and the final solo drums was added, blew me away.
PD: I run marathons, and I always put that song on whenever im 5 kilometers away from finishing, 30 minutes of glory before ending.
All 4 variants of moonview are S tier mario kart songs from me in their own unique ways. Moonview is peak
@@BlueMarioGaming Yeah, not only does each of the 4 variations sound distinct from one another, they're also really good tracks to listen to.
You know the music is exceptional when it can single handedly fool people into thinking that things are actually happening during a race on Moonview Highway in MK8
am I crazy for thinking it's not that good
It was always a banger and I’m glad people are finally realizing it. 😆
Super hyped for the sandwich six !! Your ranking vids are my favourite
This may be my favorite video you’ve done. Thanks for introducing me to some fantastic music.
4:19 I’m 90% sure that DK Jungle Pkwy is a marimba, not a xylophone
Percussionists when somebody can't tell the difference between a flippydootittledeedeebrophone & a glurkenspikertickledicklepicklepiel (I'm percussionists)
Yeah thats definetly a marimba
@@RByers404erm actually that’s a qwkerkebshakenstien ( i am not a percussionist)
@JoeStinker-ip9mr Oooh so close, but not quite! It's actually a pair of timpabongitalipanets
@@RByers404Idk why, but as a percussionist, I'm randomly reminded of a time someone said to someone "The difference between these snare drums is this one reminds people of the military and this one gives you tinnitus if you don't wear ear protection", which I'd say is an accurate way to describe the difference between a stage snare drum and a field snare drum :v
2:21 disappointment in the… huh?
Yeah that caught me off guard but I can see why he did that.
@@stilesstratton9566 didn’t he do that in his other song rankings
@@UltimateDespairado wait, there are others? My mistake.
@@stilesstratton9566That just means the ones for Steven Universe, Phineas and Ferb, and Total Drama: World Tour.
@UltimateDespairado To be fair I think he only did that for Steven Universe cause of how horrible Potluck was
You’re so goated for including that playlist
Just wanted to mention I thought this video was especially well edited. Especially around top 30 or so. Really loving these.
I'm loving the sandwich arc already. Really looking forward to where it goes!
Also, every time you ask a sarcastic/rhetorical question, I have to resist the overwhelming urge to yell "Shoot them with the dehydration gun!"
noticing a really strong theme throughout the very lowest-ranked ones: they’ve almost all been from genres that don’t focus on melody, besides the ghost tracks (and Boardwalk is still an example of what I’m thinking of). there’s a lot of percussive stuff down there, some drum-n-bass, some looping arpeggios at the front of the mix, much more rhythm than lead.
a bunch of them I really get though, they don’t exactly give the mood you’d expect from Mario Kart.
13:46 IT’S TOAD CIRCUIT! *YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!*
Rosalina's Ice World being that low is CRIMINAL! I was OBSESSED with it when the remix came out!
I wouldn’t say I am obsessed with it, but it is a really good track. Definitely thought it was going to be higher
It is in that special category of songs that 90% of people will probbaly not like, or straight up hate, but those that love it are obsessed with it. You can have a seat at the table with us original Los Angeles Laps music fans.
I really don’t understand his disinterest in the track, both as a track and the amazing music.
@@rootbourne4454 The track I can understrand, it's such a weird theme for a track.
Ok so it's an Ice World we race through? NAH make it Rosalina's for no apparent reason!
I'd have appreciated if we got an actual Rosalina track instead of whatever that track is supposed to be. Have us race around the Observatory and my money is YOURS.
bruh fr i honestly was expecting it to be #1
So happy for another Mario kart vid from schaffrillas. Probably my favorite TH-cam videos ever were his Mario kart series
Honestly, the music for “Accelerated Toilet” unironically sounds more like something that Frank Sinatra would sing along to.
Personally, I couldn't believe how low Sky High Sundae was. I feel that song goes SO HARD for an ice cream track! The bassline and the drums are INSANE!! So I wasn't expecting it place lower than 100 but we all have our tastes.
As unintersesting as the racetrack it's based on imo.
I have played this track at least 25 times by now and it STILL isn't memorable enough so that it stays in my head for more than 3 minutes afterwards
I needed this… and I didn’t know I needed a music ranking…
Are you KIDDING ME are you OUTTA YOUR MIND twisted mansion is one of my favourite mk8 music tracks it gets stuck in my head all the time
1:09:19 shout out to that dry bowser's bullet-time reflex reaction to the banana
I feel like Ice Ice outpost was the reason this video got made and I'm all about it
Sweet Sweet Canyon being so low is a crime against humanity
Great ranking, got to go back to your top pick, because honestly that one doesn’t stand out to me.
Something I really love is how you have matched the racer to the track in your clips, such a nice touch!
the amount of joy and excitement in this video when you talk about your favorite bits of the songs is infectious
I actually really like the frantic, almost overwhelming songs, like Banshee Boardwalk and Grumble Volcano, because they bear down on you so much. Admittedly, Ninja Hideaway does this concept much better, but it feels repetitive to me.
Ye grumble volcano was one of my fav Mario kart songs
HEY, _PUNK,_ THIS IS MY COMMENT
You stole it from the comments section of GWallPro's "All 123 Mario Kart SONGS Ranked With 1 Word!"
I mean, my opinion still stands, but like, get your own. Loser.
This is my comment! You took it from "All 123 Mario Kart SONGS Ranked With 1 Word!", you creep!
It doesn't even make that much sense here, considering it was a rebuttal to how low both of those songs were ranked in GWallPro's original video, versus the places they're all ranked here. Get your own opinion, ya phony crook!
55:55 Nice to see Scott's bedroom so high up on the list
I see that you are a man of culture
@andres20111996 takes one to know one, fellow man of culture
When i heard you were making another Mario Kart Ranking i KNEW you would be ranking the songs. Surprisingly not many others have done it before, the stand out for me being Fred the Monty Mole who has musical knowledge and uses music technicalities but still keeps it very accesible for most people (Also you should totally check out his medleys, specially the Kirby Bosses and Mario Kart tracks ones; and also his Paper Mario boss themes ranking. He has a criminally underrated channel)
I'm still waiting for the starting line banner ranking
Is Fred the Monty Mole ever gonna talk about the remade TTYD OST as he promised?
@@TicTacToeCraft Idk go ask him yourself on one of his streams lmao. Also long videos usually take time, he's probably working on another ranking or medley on the background give him some tome
Cool, Now rank every every mario kart 8 vehicle combination
I love the inaccessible Mario Kart running gags of Boston Building and Tony Soprano. It’s the little things.
1:06:19 YOU JUST GOT COCONUT MALLED
Legit, the songs are one of my favorite part of each track. My favorites are, in no particular order: Waluigi Stadium (original), DK Summit (original), Wii Rainbow Road (Wii and 8 versions), Sydney Sprint, Accelerated Toilet, Yoshi's Island, N64 Rainbow Road (8 version), Mount Wario and Ice Ice Outpost, among a few others
desert hills at third last is actually a crime
I've been thinking about putting some mario kart music in the background while playing. I'm glad you're now throwing us this video
Squeaky clean sprint’s song sounds like infomercial music
I’d agree that DS’s Shroom Ridge isn’t much more than “Optimistic”, but MK8 Deluxe’s rendition of Shroom Ridge is easily my favorite theme in any Mario kart game. I’d describe it as "Exhilarating"!
Speaking as someone who loves the original Shroom Ridge's music anyway, the remix just takes things to a whole new level! Glad to see it up in S tier (and even managing to be a slot above Mount Wario!)
14:25...I died here...I'm just dead....you killed me schaff..YOU KILLED ME
I know right what a low placement for this track
robert is not pleased with this placement
I'm so excited we got another Mario Kart video from Schaffrillas!
28:47
that picture caught me off guard o_0
Toads factory is not only my favourite song in the mariokart series but also just my favourite track hands down so I’m so
Happy to see he put it so high
As a video game music composer who has discussed this game before, I am so excited to see people talking about this! 😁
As a musician who has played and talked about this music before, this guy has some bs takes.
@ Yeah I said I was excited to see people talking about it at all, not that I agreed with anything they might say 😅
Oh boy, can't wait to see how these 6 videos are gonna be like.
