I’ll post them here and on Twitter every Tuesday and Thursday using the hashtag #KongsTdayTunes.

It’s overworld week! Super Mario World‘s main theme is a solid tune that cycles through a few melodies. It’s dynamic and manages to be memorable without being annoyingly repetitive. The fact that it’s build to incorporate Yoshi’s optional bongo elements on the fly makes it even more impressive.

I sing this song to my dog.

Track: “Overworld Theme” (YouTube Link)
