Imagine going in the church and all suddenly this music plays I don’t know about you but this is so scary that it’s almost as if it were Jesus’s worse nightmare
I love you for this. To think that a theme that frightened me as a kid like it did would give me the chills again 15 years later... though this time, it happened for different reasons. Thank you so much for this.
One thing I never noticed, all the music on super Mario world is just the same athletes rag song with different spins to them, completely blew my mind when I first noticed
Nate Kenley He's right, though. Most of Super Mario World's soundtrack is built around the same leitmotif. Listen to the overworld, underground, underwater, athletic and castle themes, and see if you notice it.
I would love to see someone on a dark stage, playin this on a piano, with a spotlight shining down on them, and when they hit that intense part. A whole bunch of lights light up the organ, and the other person just lets er go. That would be epic.
Gave me the chills. Loved it and way tighter than the other video of this on the organ. Good job on the technical parts of the song they're not obvious
All I can picture is entering an unfamiliar church on a stormy night, organ out of sight, and this theme echoing through the stone halls: unseen, crawling across your skin in chilling resonance, coming from everywhere and nowhere at the same time... excellent performance
Man, I just love this tune so much, I remember running out of time in bowsers castle because I was standing around grooving it. You really did a great job, there's so much "body" to the sound.
Listening to this i feel like 5 or 6 year old me, sitting infront of my SNES and playing Super Mario World, entering the First Castle for the First Time. I was so frightened back then. Like i am not frightened rn, but i feel the same feelings as back then. Good Job bringing this old Childhood memory to life again!
Me and my buddy have been going through old games that we never were able to experience since, well, we didn't even exist yet. We both have Nintendo Online and the moment we hears the one bit where the notes do that satisfying plumet down ( 1:00 ) we were in love with it. I knew that it had to sound just as satisfying and even more menacing on a whole ass organ. Glad I was right!
I recently gained access to a church organ and was thinking of organ appropriate songs to try to learn, and thought of this... and I was definitely right to think it'll sound epic!
@VampiressVixen I agree. Few instruments can actually reach this level of epicness. Still awesome song. The slow melody part after the intro sounds kinda messy but still incredible job. MORE MORE!!!
Wow... wow... and wow... a few stumbles in the fast arpeggiating bit, but it still sounds really cool... discordant and creepy nontheless... Now if only we could get a full orchestra to accompany you, and a freakin' CHOIR!
Brilliant! I feel as though the opening minute could have been softer, with the lead up to part 2 becoming gradually louder reaching its peak on that high note. Not sure if the pistons could have been programmed so that the right stops could have been pulled in and then back out. I'm still learning how an organ operates myself. Nevertheless, excellent job! Even with the little stumble in the middle, I couldn't have done any better myself.
I hope you can start doing other video game themes again. I know it's been a couple of years since you uploaded them, but by far, you have been the best with video game themes on Grand Organ I've seen on UA-cam.
From the Ultimate Boswer take and this, I agree with the other commenter; you seem to be getting anxious, and going off tempo-- from there you fumble in your urgency. Still, it's awesome to hear people actually playing the pipe organ. Stick with it!
I'd imagine this is something Ludwig von Koopa would be playing in his freetime.
You go to the cathedral late at night during a storm and play this...
It will be so epic
That sounds lovely.
Let's make it happen.
Paulo de Melo I would love to do that!
Boi, this is my summer holiday in a nutshell whenever I arrive at nights to ring the bells
I'd play robotnik's theme from Sonic 1. It's more badguy--y
This is magnificent, the fact that people got their hands on the proper instruments and produced this? Be grateful we live in this age.
Sorry Mario, but the princess is in another church...
XD
😂
Lmao
Christian Mario
This holds up to Odyssey
God that song is so haunting... Gives me shivers...
Right?? Puts into perspective just what a genius Koji Kondo was.
Imagine going in the church and all suddenly this music plays I don’t know about you but this is so scary that it’s almost as if it were Jesus’s worse nightmare
The original one was probably the most terrifying Castle theme Kondo ever composed
Excuse me, Father O'Brien, I need to borrow the church organ to make covers of video game music.
Lmfaoo
This fits really well.
CRISPY TOAST IS THAT YOU?!?!?!?!
1:21 Those wrong notes make this theme even more evil.
JAJAJAJJ i think same, the wrong notes make the piece more evil xd
Agreed. Actually sounds awesome
That;'s how you would torture a person who has perfect pitch
It sounded more like a glissando to me.
I love you for this. To think that a theme that frightened me as a kid like it did would give me the chills again 15 years later... though this time, it happened for different reasons.
Thank you so much for this.
And now 26 years later. Some of the themes choked me up - in fact I was asked 'why I was crying' :D
One thing I never noticed, all the music on super Mario world is just the same athletes rag song with different spins to them, completely blew my mind when I first noticed
Gozar Games not really....lol
Nate Kenley He's right, though. Most of Super Mario World's soundtrack is built around the same leitmotif.

Yea the only other Mario like that is land 2 and I love them for that.
AdmiralOctopus OH MY GOD
Super Mario 64's soundtrack with the exception of Bowser stages and Hazy Maze Cave are built around a similar scale.
Definitely the best instrument to play this song on, fantastic job!
This music fits being played on the pipe organ.
if THIS sounds dark and evil, imagine how Ocarina of Time Ganon's Castle would sound...jesus fucking christ....
Idk if he's taking suggestions but if he is then this needs a billion likes
RIGHT? but i wanna hear Ganon's Tower of OoT on this thing....IMAGINE HOW PURELY EVIL THAT THING WOULD SOUND
Dude I've heard some organ covers from Ganon's Castle!! Super creepy and suspenseful and amazing!!
This is a bit too soon, but... Imagine what Demise's castle theme would sound like on this organ...
*****
Bet it would be badass.
People walking past outside be like wait what?
"God damn it is tommy trying to summon Satan again?!"
+Axel Konzern damn it tommy sick of ur shit stop to summon satan and raise the dead.
pianorags especially the Mario fans. There be thinking is Bowser here and is planing to destroy the world
They'd think the most epic fucking exorcism was going down!
Still love this vid 13 years later.
14 years ago 😮 I remember when this was uploaded. Still so good.
I would love to see someone on a dark stage, playin this on a piano, with a spotlight shining down on them, and when they hit that intense part. A whole bunch of lights light up the organ, and the other person just lets er go. That would be epic.
Freaking awesome, do you know what animated 2D movie character play this like I guess evil:3 hehe
Priest comes in: WTF are you playing >: (
XD

this is creepy and epic at the same time
This and the Zelda theme sound amazing on a pipe organ
Man, I just love this tune so much, I remember running out of time in bowsers castle because I was standing around grooving it. You really did a great job, there's so much "body" to the sound.
Saw it on Jordan Underneath, had to hear it after that
kentobeatbox as did I
represent
Wicked Cool! :D
Sounds nostalgically good and scary at the same time!
JESUS CHRIST THIS IS AMAZING
Forgive him church organ man, He meant holy hecc
(Jesus christ loved this)
I got the chills big time listening to this. granted grand organs always do this to me, but this just took the cake.
Sounds so Chaotic and evil it's freaking PERFECT! I wish He was still updating but all his videos are from 5 years ago!
This made every hair on my body stand up. Fantastic.
Absolutely amazing! When it gets really heavy, it sounds the best. You really brought out the feel to the Castle theme using the organ.
Thank you for re-creating my favorite theme from Mario.
Listening to this i feel like 5 or 6 year old me, sitting infront of my SNES and playing Super Mario World, entering the First Castle for the First Time. I was so frightened back then. Like i am not frightened rn, but i feel the same feelings as back then. Good Job bringing this old Childhood memory to life again!
how have I missed this organ version?! that was aawsome!!! what true organ music should be!
Me and my buddy have been going through old games that we never were able to experience since, well, we didn't even exist yet. We both have Nintendo Online and the moment we hears the one bit where the notes do that satisfying plumet down ( 1:00 ) we were in love with it. I knew that it had to sound just as satisfying and even more menacing on a whole ass organ. Glad I was right!
You should do a cover for Saberwulf's theme from Killer Instinct one day
orochimaru theme is best in rain and Halloween
Man i just love Organs so much the way music comes out is so damn chilling i love it!!!
Wicked! This. THIS really gave me the goosebumps.
Extraordinary work, sir.
I recently gained access to a church organ and was thinking of organ appropriate songs to try to learn, and thought of this... and I was definitely right to think it'll sound epic!
Wonderful music!
This would fit perfectly for New Super Mario World on the Wii U. :P
fantastic.
Wow love to hear this live! Love love love it!
and this is what this song should be played on, awesome
This is so beautiful. I want this played at my funeral.
What an amazing piece. I'd love to see more!
oh this gives me shivers, love it
This sounds pretty good! My favorite version. Where have I been all this time not knowing of this great performance? Thumbs up.
LOL that was awesome. Please post more videos!!
You have alot of talent with the piano. Makes me happy I got to hear it.
OMG! THis is the most awesome cover of this song EVER! Just PERFECT! :D
I thoroughly fucking enjoyed this. Holy moley. Nice job!
jeez! those first few notes, the hair on my skin stood up.
You are a damn GENIUS, MAN!!!
That's awesome!
This is unbelievably accurate and brilliant, really impressed :P
goosebumps O.O"
I bet Kijo Kondo would be thrilled to hear this in person.
I guess this has to be so nasty to make it sound good on an actual organ, with all the legato arpeggios. Good work!
Damn I wish I had found this year's ago. This is great!
this must be the best version I ever heard great job! really sounds evil
Brilliant i love the sound of grand piano. So eerie
WOW. This is a Masterpiece!!!
かっこいいスゴすぎる
Just wow!
My dream of hearing the classic castle theme of super mario on a real pipe organ just came true!
Omg...I don't know how to explain how epic this is 😍
Masterpiece.
i wish there is 480p for better music quality that woud be even more epic :D
This is always awesome to listen to :D
Best song to play like this
@tacomang This is SPARTA! But seriously, if the church let borrow the organ for an afternoon to play video game music I'm sure it's perfectly fine.
Very dark and powerful..seemed a little rushed and a little sloppy at parts because of it though. But I'm no organist. Sounded really cool though
@VampiressVixen I agree. Few instruments can actually reach this level of epicness.
Still awesome song. The slow melody part after the intro sounds kinda messy but still incredible job. MORE MORE!!!
Hail Bowser!!
This is EPIC!!
Reminds me of how Ocean City MD is a ghost town at nighttime; especially during 2 years ago's covid pandemic lockdown.
This dude rocks.
exploring the castles with this theme is amazingly spooky
SO GOOD
woooow omg that sounds soo great i love it so much!! and the organ looks soo great oO
this.
is.
AWESOME.
Why doesn't this have over 1 million views?!?!? :o
Amazing.
Nostalgia 2023!!!!
Epic!!
Absolutely beautiful. This belongs at the Kennedy Center!
This has now been favorited. That rocked. Long live 1991!
Wow... wow... and wow... a few stumbles in the fast arpeggiating bit, but it still sounds really cool... discordant and creepy nontheless...
Now if only we could get a full orchestra to accompany you, and a freakin' CHOIR!
this is perfect! you played almost every detail of this song
Brilliant! I feel as though the opening minute could have been softer, with the lead up to part 2 becoming gradually louder reaching its peak on that high note. Not sure if the pistons could have been programmed so that the right stops could have been pulled in and then back out. I'm still learning how an organ operates myself. Nevertheless, excellent job!

When you here these sorta tunes from super mario, makes you think that the game isn't all bright colours and cute things
AMAZING!
holy shirt! this is great!
Wish I had one of those in my livingroom.
Fucking awesome.
Wow, I love this piece, and with this grand organ sound... it brings out the real me!
*laughs madly irl* Thank you. :3
0:58 you know shits about to get real
This is amazing!!!
Go man go!! I wish I could be there in that church xD
