I was subconsciously hooked on jazz before even realizing what it was thanks to the Hey Arnold soundtrack
ikr me too 😍😍 this show will forever be in my heart ❤️
That’s my story too 🥰
Fucking same. I realized it a while back, that it was my first real exposure to a very broad spectrum and depth of jazz.
yessss
and the ed edd n eddy music, too.
hey arnold had THE best score for a kids cartoon ever, it made me fall in love with jazz tho
Pretty hard to beat Looney Tunes/Merry Melodies. It's definitely top tier though
Same!
Same here. Still I cannot recognize, which style this jazz is? There's a drop of cool, a drop of fusion... Give me a hand, guys.
@@alexeyb8237 following because i too would love to know as well, great question btw 👍
Also made me a great poet
The f-ing deepness that there was to this cartoon and music... the pigeon man , the nostalgia , the freaking room man... the Vietnam war story.. the art?! I can go on and on... what a great show.. 😢
The Vietnam war story definitely hit me the hardest, since I am Vietnamese myself. During that Christmas episode, I found myself crying when the father told his lost (now found) daughter that he missed her and loved her in Vietnamese. It is a blessing to be able to understand it and how emotional that scene was.
@@reannya1191 That's awesome dude. That episode is legendary, I could relate on small level as a refugee.
Cartoon golden age.
Not to mention Lila's house, Chocolate Boy, and Arnold's Parents 😮
Why does Hey Arnold and the soundtrack hit different in Autumn & Winter? Watching this masterpiece while it's going dark outside with leaves blowing around. Nostalgia to the max.
This show was a head of it's time
Many 90’s kid’s shows were.
I wish I could say it was ahead of its time, if anything since was ever this good. But this is one of a kind. It hasn’t been matched.
A football head of it's time 🏈😂
This show was ahead of now.
To be honest, if you look at the story of all the characters and their vaudeville carousel of emotions, you needed a Jim Lang to land those moments. There was so much classiness, noir, R&B, and color that never got old or missed a beat in these tracks. Arnold's orphan upbringing, Helga's bent parenthood, Torvald's pampered existence, the Pigeon Man. Ruth. Didn't we all have a Ruth? "Hi Ruth... hi Ruth..." What great padding this music served for such sharp and sensitive realities expressed in animation. Thanks for the upload.
'Don't call it jazz man, that's a made up word. It's social music' Don Cheadle as Miles Davis in 'Miles Ahead'.
Many might trace they're early exposure to classical music in various Disney productions but in the 90's 'Hey Arnold!' might not have had that level of consistent corporate clout w/Nickelodeon but that still didn't take away how the soundtrack music made for 'meaningful feels' and a unique sound design.
@@noticias6111 A lot of the classical we got through cartoons wasn't even original; it was used because it was in the public domain. I ain't knocking it: putting animation to music takes creativity and skill. But Hey Arnold's soundtrack is original in every sense of the word. Like, maybe it's just because I grew up with it, but... I do like jazz, but a lot of it kinda blends together for me. Not this. Actually, this is the sound I'm always looking for in other artists, but I've never heard anything quite like it.
SO ACCURATELY PUT.
If there's something I find slightly underwhelming about a handful of episodes after season 1, it's that many of them fail to match Jim Lang in their aesthetic quality. The jungle movie really shows that Arnold is at its best when it's dealing with the moodiness of everyday life for kid's in the big city. A jungle setting is not a great way to end the series.
Facts tho
My love for jazz music started somewhere and I never realized it was here
same here. Hey Arnold and Cowboy Bebop :)
Jim Lang didn’t have to go so hard on a kids show, he but he did and now we got a banger on our hands.
the mom and dad, parents day ending theme and the journal 34:13 made me tears a lot, im 27 years old and i remember my dad when i close my eyes and listen the music ...
I remember visiting his house as a child and always watching this program, while he prepared dinner or breakfast for me, it is like going back in time and hugging him and feeling like a girl again, I miss him so much ... Thank you very much for uploading this music
❤️💜💛
i am from el salvador latin america and the same way you feel i feel insidee this show was my whole childhood i miss those times without pain and stress just care about not missing any minute of this cartoons :,)
That song always makes me tear up
Beautiful song, one of my favorites pigeons man
It's pretty incredible how this music defined our childhood. I'm the same age and know what you mean.
This music hits deep man. Reminds me of cold winter evenings for some reason. Finishing school and coming home to watch this on Nickelodeon with my sister. Of course you don't appreciate the music at the time... but now it makes me feel more nostalgic than the cartoon.
I usually hate soppy comments on UA-cam and now I've written one myself. Apologies.
Same thing happens to alot of us. Spongebob especially for me. Back when I was a kid, the music went through my head, it was like I couldnt even hear it at all. But now when the background music plays, I always love those tunes now
I feel the same, this music hits hard
I feel you man. This comment made me a little emotional. I remember getting home and watching Hey Arnold with my mom. She was a single mother and it was just she and I watching cartoons together... Good times. I miss it.
Vos sos amigo del pollo?
Don't be sorry brotha same for me. Hey Arnold! had such a cool vibe to it. The snow in the show looked so nice.
Groove Remote (Abner/Lowjack) 16:53 what a thing of beauty!! this cartoon made me love the saxophone watching it as a kid.. every episode had a meaningful message in them, the good ol' days.
Such a masterpiece! The smoothest song on the track.
I was looking for this time stamp thanks!
Football Head - Flamingosis
@@a_pav glad I can assist with the alley oop 🤾🏾♂️
16:53 is now my jam. And yours too.
Yup everyday the feels
You’re so right man.
Flamingosis ❤️❤️
Indeed it is.
For those of you who want to hear this song in it's prime, search Flamingosis - Football Head
I'll put this out there and say that this music might be the best soundtrack ever made to compliment a cartoon. Hey Arnold was so much more than just a cartoon in the first place. Great characters who all had their own crazy and at times dysfunctional upbringings. The music was a reason to watch it on its own. Hauntingly beautiful, uplifting and nostalgic it just worked so well. I remember watching this growing up and wanting to have Arnold's life and bedroom more than anything. It just seemed so cool and Hillwood seemed such a cool place to live, even though it was all fictional. It was and still is my favourite cartoon. I've tried many times to put together a list of my favourite episodes but so far have failed. There are just to many. Maybe that's because the music is just too perfect in all of them
I feel so lucky to have been a kid in the 90s.
Anxiety hits really hard on 90s kid's adulthood.
Golden years
9:40 such a beautifully made song!
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
It seems to me an excellent song, I have it in my mind since I was 10 years old.
This one lets me stare at my soul..
Hey Arnold has the best soundtrack in the world!!!
marry me beautiful i love this songs as you do
30:40 - 32:40 made me think about the people who I miss in life and how thankful I am for those who are by my side.
so sad for me now bro u.u ... i love you random spirit have a internal placeful life u.u M24 javier marti*
your soul is made of the same components of minee this feeling ingot with this song was out of this world even tho thosee who arent here now were part of my history God bless your soul stranger:,)
i thought Helga's True Love was gonna be that silly little tune that plays whenever she lets herself loose and goes into a poetic tangent about arnold. and then it played and a different song! it sounds almost lonely, deep, contemplative...and it made me want to cry.
Helga's love /can/ be silly and light, but considering who she is and what she went through, it's also something melancholic. like a feather fluttering in the smoke of car exhaust, somehow staying above the ground and steadily finding hot air and floating to the sky
Love the way all this Nick' Cartoons had their own atmosphere in terms of music: "Hey Arnold" and jazz, "Catdog" country. Very creative people behind all the stuff.
And also Hawaiian/APM music for SB.
All this jazz!!! I always wanted a set up like Arnold had in his room.
fadedsun303 me too! espc the cool ceiling glass man ive been adoring those since forever
fucking awesome
Amen
This show evoked such a broad range of emotions, despite being a children's show. They're reflected in the scoring.
The Hey Arnold soundtrack reminds me of the soundtrack of one of my all-time favorite games as a child: Sim City 3000.
Both were very jazz-influenced. And they so well communicated the grittiness, frenzy, struggle, and magic of city life. Both are pure nostalgia and always worth re-listening and remembering.
It’s kind of sad how depressing you realize Hey Arnold is once you grow up
i think he was sad sometimes but not depress, he had the love of his family and friends, and he love them back too
I mean, it definitely got into sadder territory, but I think it was ultimately hopeful.
its more relatable than anything else. It's sad because life is
The whole point of his character was the opposite of “depressing” though an optimums and willful humbleness. Arnold always helped people out of the kindness of his heart with a sense of realness to it, not everyone could be helped nor wanted to like the pigeon man etc. yet Arnold still tried.
@@kaiser1963 It was melancholic but never maudlin. Arnold experienced a loss and a hollowness early in his life with the departure of his parents, but he also had the love and faithful support of his grandparents to keep him from complete despair.
I think without that early exposure to loss, Arnold wouldn't have been so empathetic. He never went around like a Boy Scout trying to find dilemmas to solve, but when his friends or people in his community were struggling he would talk to them and more often than not offer help or at the least encouragement with their problems, because he knew how important it was for people to get support from others when they were struggling.
He was definitely a role model when I first watched the show at his age. As a kid with a difficult home life not depicted in the cheery nuclear family-based suburban cartoons of the 90s, it made me feel less like a space alien to see the atypical families Arnold and Helga lived with.
dude mom and dad theme hits fucking hard, the whole story of hey arnold is a masterpiece
The soundtrack for this show had no business being this good damn
"damn good" but yes :)
chuckle
9:40 is one of the most romantic pieces of music I've ever heard. It's so fitting, too! You've got the steady piano, and that feels like Helga, who knows how she feels and is waiting for Arnold to come around. And then that lilting sax is more hesitant... But it also carries this sense of questioning, searching, and curiosity, like Arnold trying to figure out who Helga really is.
it's beautiful and it sounds a bit like golden slumbers by the beatles
I wholeheartedly agree with you, Jim Lang is incredibly good at encapsulating subtle emotions through music, he's on par with Bernard Herrmann in that regard.
The music for Hey Arnold is flatfriggingamazing! Jim Lang's contributions to this series and to the musical world of jazz is extraordinary.
I wish his scores were available on cd.
I had such a deep feeling of nostalgia, i want to be 10 y.o again :(
Me too :(
No wonder I have good taste in music, I grew up with this, damn it's funky.
This deserves way more attention
I love being able to hear the bass! My tube tv never did it justice
hey arnold just hits so hard musically its pure emotion of the human struggle all around
I grew up in the early 90s, so by the time Hey Arnold came on the air, it wasn’t necessarily my favorite show but I can’t deny what a well done show it really was in so many ways.
I swear Hey Arnold had the most beautiful score in television cartoon history
32:41 makes me feel in peace and show me a lot of memories and people that I miss soo!
oh men i feel so alive heearing this kind of music...It is a time machine to my childhood..
I really took for granted how amazing the score was for this show. All of the melancholic undertones of the show kind of flew over my head when I was younger, but I feel like I could rewatch it as an adult with a deeper appreciation of what it was.
I just finished watching the series for the first time and it was absolutely one of the sweetest shows I've ever seen. Idk why i waited so long to watch it, but i guess I'm glad i did. It's brought me so much peace during this quarantine. I know part of that is thanks to Jim Lang's wonderful music. Thank you for uploading it here so i can still get those peaceful vibes!
You watch the jungle movie yet?
@@tonygant2448 I did!! My heart is full! 💖
Whole thing is my favorite song. This is my all time favorite show. And the groove remote rhythm at 22:09 so deep and heavy. 33:27 is absolute fucking fire. But every song is a nostalgia knife to the chest. I can listen to any of these songs on repeat.
36:48 for all the feels
My heart
;_;
i remember to cry with this episode ... so beautiful ! so poetic ! a mixture of major and minor sound at the same time, an incredible bewitching and touching flow, really congratulations to Jim Lang for his work here worthy of a Japanese composition just like what you can hear in a Miyasaki film
@@RubyRhod83 Oh no doubt, that combo touches me within by itself, but the fact that it captured the essence of that scene with Arnold getting in the plane so perfectly was just icing on that cake.
They
need
another
season!
i wish i could live in hey arnolds world so unique and pure
I think as children we _do_ live in Hey Arnold's world. Everything seems so, as you put it, unique and pure.
I feel so blessed I witnessed this
19:43
Te amé
TE AMO I LOVE YOU ♥
The turtle episode! I loved this!
gracias
Justo lo que buscaba
Fantastic soundtrack! Even as a kid when I watched the show, I always admired and paid attention to the music.
My whole childhood just flashed before my eyes
I always wanted to live in Arnold's city. It always seemed to post-industrial cool...
I grew up in like the generation right after this show was on TV and never watched it as a kid, but holy fuck this soundtrack is amazing. They had THIS for a kid's cartoon???
I loved Hey Arnold when I was a little girl... This brings back so many beautiful memories! :) Hey Arnold is the reminiscent of good old times for me! Kudos for this beautiful playlist!
Got ig?
16:53 is where the sadness starts for me.
30:38
so nostalgic and sad dude u.u times when the Spirit was living u.u
God bless whoever made this. Been looking for this since I was a kid.
Demasiado para la nostalgia, y para el gusto
4 years later but I'm thanking you now. Much appreciated for putting this masterpiece on UA-cam!!!!
I LOVE YOU for doing this!!!! THANK YOU!!
Attention to detail in these shows. Just beautiful
You've got to love those unrelenting flourishes at the ends
When I visited Brooklyn I felt like I was in Hey Arnold.
I wish more of these tracks were on the vinyl they released last year.
9:43 this track is everything takes me back
Yes 😔♥️
When I heard the Hey Arnold theme play out, I was picturing the scenes from the opening playing out in my head. This is amazing! And also I'm gonna have that probably on loop while I'm working on a reanimated collab.
Groove Remote Lockjaw soundtrack is the best for me, but I still enjoy the other soundtracks too. Groove Remote always makes feel calm and relaxing and will always remind me why Hey Arnold is one of the best nicktoons out there.
I used to love this show. Wish Nick would have their old cartoon block back so my kids can watch wholesome cartoons.
maravilloso
omg man I love u
@@jesusrobleslugo i love u too lindão
Facts
Perfect Chill Playlist. The music from this show was / is so beautiful and calming, but some of it can be depressing and leave you with a sense of loneliness, but I think that’s what the composers were going for.
This must have taken a long time and as a 90s Nick kid,I appreciate it and I appreciate you for taking the time to make it and i appreciate the fellow 90s Nick kids for reading this!
This show is why I am in love with Rhodes keyboards and that contemporary jazz. Hit my childhood just right
Wurlitzers man
My deepest thanks.
The Best Soundtrack ever from a cartoon!
Sid and Stink hit different. So much emotion
It hurts.. you can totally use the sid and stink track on some back flash of childhood memories. Or possibly a final helga/arnold moment scene.
Wow what a legend! Even included a download link. Thank you!
Phenomenal work! Can't believe I've never seen this before.
pure spirit 30:38 have a real existence
Today I am 31, listening to this is like taking a trip back in time, to which I would like to return. I miss when life was simpler!! How lucky we were to have such a fun and deep series.
That he left us a lesson! What would Arnold be without Lang? Thanks a lot 🇦🇷
9:40 I love Helga's True Love theme💓💓💓💚💚💚🌸🌸🌸
Beautiful jazz for my mind 🥺
Oh loco! Muchísimas gracias! Cuanta nostalgia!
Hey Arnold did lofi way before the internet
This literally molded my music taste as a grown-up man
That bass is so thick! I love it
this is historic
BRO IM SO FREAKING GLAD I FOUND THIS
Lockjaw by void
Still here 2022 listening too the classics
Me too! I've been rewatching some episodes and it's super fun!
thank you so much for this mr. genius man
Thank you so much for this amazing sountrack mix!! i love it! i hear it everyday!
Nostalgia.
holysh$%^ this is amazing, thankyou so much!
36:49 - probably one of the saddest pieces of music ever written...
Amazing work! Thanks for this, such a good memories came back with a great quality sound!
3:35 I remember this one well all I can hear them say is car when they were trying to play baseball on the road
I miss those days T_T
Me too 💔 now I’m 22 years old and I’m very sad i need to go back
I'm happy to say Hey Arnold played a part in me liking Jazz🎶 and the saxophone🎷... in my mid-30s and i still watch this show from time to time.
Thank you for posting this 😏
Ah! los 90s 😎
I loved hey Arnold growing up, as an adult I still love it soundtrack and show classic it’s a real one
WHY DOES “PARENTS DAY” MAKE ME WEEP SO 😭
I used to think that Cowboy Bebop had the credit for planting my appreciation for Jazz, I think Hey Arnold actually beat it to the punch.
Too beautiful 💖 what an AMAZING cartoon!
I work at a studio that has the Speck Model 62 console Jim Lang used to make all of this music and it’s a killer old school board with a lot of inspiring history for those of us who grew up with the show.
I could listen to a mix of the Invisible Hippo and Groove Remote songs ALL DAY. Most replayed section of this soundtrack for me by far.
This was my favorite show growing up. Thank you for this.
Thank you for sharing such great tunes - so much nostalgia here! Blessings, peace, and grace to you! - John 11:25-26
Daaamn I forgot how hard this show slaps
