- A great mashup of great music from a great game. This is a reupload, since the original got taken down.

Check out my podcast! • The Time Capsule Podcast
Glad I could provide you all with the opportunity to listen to this again. It's good to see so many others that take solace in this beautiful music. If you don't mind, maybe check out my podcast?
I'm just glad somebody reuploaded this. I remember listening to the first upload of this song, and I was heartbroken when I found out the original uploader's channel had been terminated. Thanks to you and that guy on SoundCloud for preserving this masterpiece. You're doing God's work. Long live Super Paper Mario.
Thanks man!!
One thing I love about this game is that it doesn't try to force the "true love" thing into Mario at all. It's not the love between him and Peach, it's not familial love between him and Luigi, it really has nothing to do with him, I really like the willingness to take the main character and just push him to the side
frozen could never
@@parflourcarbon oop shade
@@bemiatto67well deserved shade tho tbh
@@parflourcarbontrueee
it sounds super obvious looking back, but Memory is at exactly 60 BPM...
...meaning the clock ticks are counting actual seconds passing! look at the progress bar at the bottom!
60 bpm is standard for most musical pieces, anything else is written relative to 60 BPM.
Standard or not, it's still a lovely detail.
yeah but the time signature is wack
this is 4/2 what is it?
@@gapplssb considering clocks ticking is a huge element, and the song is relating to time passed, I think it's a fair observation that it was likely done on purpose. Even if it's a standard, I think it's not out of the question they specifically chose this BPM for the link it has to time passing.
Basically like music theory?
You're as beautiful as the day I lost you
blumiere to lady timpani:
@@ashercd6487 Blumiere is a bad character. He doesn't face the consequences of his actions, no one confronts him about what he did and he even got a happy ending.
@@bestevil.Doesn’t he die along with Timpani at the end?
@@philipliao4006 He does. That is a happy ending. He gets to spend the rest of entity with his love carefree
@@bestevil. What? Did you want him to be tortured for eternity? Or maybe you wanted Timpani to reject him even after he willingly sacrifices himself? He chooses to sacrifice himself and dies, I think that’s enough.
'My life would have been... more carefree without you, that is true.'
'But I had to be with you, Timpani. I will never apologise for that.'
'I never got a chance to return your question. Do you still... love me, Blumiere?'
'Of course. I have spent every moment since you disappeared thinking about you.'
“A world without you had no meaning.”
I don’t think we’re ever gonna get a Mario game with this depth of emotion again
I hope that with the TTYD remake coming soon we will see nintendo take more risks with their stories. Still just a dream atm though
@@owonapikins
the TTYD remake is made with so much love, it makes me really hopeful that the next game could be something special again
@@Tulip_bipTbh this might be controversial but TTYD's plot isn't that great. But it does have its moments, the whole TEC section with Peach was probably my favorite part of the plot because it had depth and was genuinely sad. But it seems like the X-Nauts really lacked lore and motivation
I love how they used the whole "we beat the bad guy with the power of love" which sometimes can seem cheesy and made it not only work out but super relatable and emotional. Blumiere and Timpani is probably one of my favourite romance tales in a videogame ever.
I heard somthing from another video saying somthing about love coming in many forms, and I think they were talking about how each pure heart was representing a different form of love.
I just love how the tempo is literally a ticking clock, so thematic.
More songs need to stay locked to 60 bpm, it's really magical.
Castle Bleck's theme also features a ticking clock and it was a beautiful decision if I may say so.
Most soundtracks related to Timpani and Blumiere have that ticking clock sound and I love it
"Hold tight; in the dark there's light, that never fades. Someday, we can find that love, we've known! We pray, that our games will never end alone!"
I love MOTI’s “Memory” cover so much.
A Man on the Internet's reference?
This is the best Mario Game, it’s peak nostalgia. The story is so esoteric compared to most games where peach is just kidnapped. Very relatable if you have someone you love, that’s the most meaningful part of the game experience. And the game play is a blast I have no idea what people are talking about saying it was no good. This is one of the most unique and memorable Mario Games ever.
Hell yeah
Fr I’ve had this game for around 8 years now? And throughout all 8 years this has remained my favorite game and I absolutely adore the characters, the story, and how serious the situation actually seems compared to other Mario games, and it really shows by the time you get to sammer kingdom. It’s so unbelievably sad to see it get hated on for stuff like the gameplay being different than the other games (I thought it was still just as fun considering these games were rlly story based anyway) and with this vid in mind the soundtrack is just.DAMN.
@@TaxlTommy hell yeah.
im not saying its bad. And i know its like the black sheep of the paper mario series and maybe the mario series in general. Dark theme and funny characters and nightmare fuel with river twigz and mimi spider form. BUUUT thousand year door is like a mile better though. I know its the common answer for best mario game or best paper mario game. But it really is a fucking great time. shame that its hella hard to get it physical.
@@youraveragedude9325 i can respect that answer. It"s a more refined version of 64,and is a very good rpg.
"That day... that was the day our tragedy was set in motion."
Nothing in the mario series will ever top the emotional weight that this story made me feel. It's a shame how far the series has strayed when it comes to story. Especially the paper mario series.
And design wise for that matter, back then characters felt more creativity designed compared to the same old designs we get to see nowadays.
@@joshcoy6748 I know right? part of me is happy they continued the paper Mario series with sticker star, but part of me is hurt for the broken legacy that's been left
The mainline Mario games never really had much of a story to begin with. Even with the exception of Rosalina's storybook in Galaxy 1, it's basically just an excuse to romp through fun and imaginative levels.
The Mario RPGs, on the other hand, that was basically where the world of Mario felt really expensive and adventurous. It's sad that recent games don't have that sort of feeling anymore. Though I did personally enjoy the areas and exploration in The Origami King.
Not the literal creator of the franchise saying he hates story 😭😭😭
My first tattoo ever is going to be Tippi resting on the Count's hand, to symbolize how love really does prevail no matter how dire the circumstance. This game is truly a masterpiece
How'd it go?
holy shit that was going to be my first tattoo
Okay but why on earth did Super Paper Mario have one of the most sobering and morose love stories I've ever heard?
I'll never understand why people hate this game. It's unorthodox for a paper Mario game, sure, but the story, the music, even the characters are charming and beautiful.
I love how melancholy Memory 1 is: it really seems like such a simple time, but there's an air of sadness like the characters regret that it's no longer the present day.
But each variation adds a new instrument and builds to happier remembrance. Not too subtle, not too hamfisted-- it's just a perfect musical representation of how it feels to look back on memories and recall them.
(And yes, to be sappy, I went through the same emotions just now while remembering playing as a kid. I underestimated just how much this game impacted me as a kid!)
Rented this game from the library because i liked the cover. I was maybe 10. Played through most of it but never finished it. Skipped through most of the dialogue then. Replayed the whole game a decade later. Left in tears. I love this world
This game is literally one of a kind. In my opinion, there's no game that can surpass this game's emotions. And it's a freaking Mario game. This is an example of something that can only be pulled off once, and can never be recreated just as well. This game has so much to it.
A missing soul.
Eternal gratefulness.
A little prince fulfilling his mother's wish.
Two sides of a story.
Fighting on for nothing.
Parents losing their child for the world's sake.
And most importantly...
Love, sacrifice, and never giving up hope.
I know another game that evokes similar emotions, Pokemon mystery dungeon, specifically explorers of sky which is what i played
Theres something so serene and composed about the clock motif. This game doesn’t get enough credit than it should.
A ticking clock in the background should be a more common musical motif.
I just got the news that my grandfather has kidney cancer and i open youtube and this is the first video in my recommended, what luck..
Is your grandfather still around? One year later?
I hope your grandfather is doing well, even if he has unfortunately passed away...
Super paper Mario was something else man…
Actually I agree... the moment I first saw it, I was IMMEDIATELY drawn to watch my siblings and my own Father play through the story mode.
as was once said, the core of super paper mario and its story is quite relatable when you love somebody. love is the foundation of super paper mario. all of the pure hears represent a different kind of love-- the storyline is won with love.
i listened to this for so much tiem long long ago as a kid, subconsciously yearning. i have the love of my life with me now, and i can't help but circle all the way back to these pieces of music and feel accomplished
you answered my prayers literally as I gave up the previous night.
Glad to help.
That's awesome
God bless ya bro :D
This will be the song I walk down the aisle to, a live version of it on a live piano of course. This song has been with me my entire life, and the emotions I hold with it will resonate forever. I have tears in my eyes as I type this. This song perfectly captures what years of long lost memories feels like, and every time I hear it its like I can see a timeline of my life in every note. I want to be able to feel all those emotions on my wedding day, and be grateful for all the steps I took to get me to get where I will be that day. I'm not sure what it is about this song, but it means the world to me, this GAME means the world to me, and I will be damned if I don't have a subtle nod to it somewhere on my special day.
I think its because this game has been with my my whole life. I played it when it first came out in 2007, and throughout the rest of my life I have continued playing it. It was the first game I ever beat, and I remember being so excited that I actually beat a game! This game got be through some truly horrible times. The happy childhood memories it brings me makes me so unbelievably happy. This game truly means the world to me.
Cringe? Probably. Do I care? Hell no.
Not cringe at all, I think it's brilliant honestly. Playing this game as a kid, I was amazed at how deep the story of a Mario game could be, looking back now I wish I could go back to those days :') This game will always have a special place in my heart, and it's so nice knowing that there will always be people who can relate to that nostalgic feeling
Cringe? No, based
Hotel? Trivago.
I love when I leave all the people on the internet telling me how much they despise this game, and then whenever I come back, I am flooded by touching stories of those who love this game. Super Paper Mario has really defined love in my life. That knowledge is solid in my mind.
@@cassiewhite2598 oh and don't forget the memes
Really wish we got more Mario games like these. Nothing wrong with traditional Mario games its just you really wish for something more out of these characters sometimes.
This game was so daring, I love it
I think everyone is a little broken, damaged, missing something and while we will never get our time back where we might have appreciated it all a little too less im glad more than a decade later people still enjoy this music. I guess going back is a common interest for most people and this is one way, I felt robbed of a childhood I barely had but hearing this made me realize that even though I look back in hatred at my childhood years(the early ones anyway) I see that there was good times, a shimmer of light in the darkness. Maybe it wasn't so bad? Of course that doesn't excuse anything but I will never forget, because if you can't remember or appreciate it did it even happen? I hold these moments close in some I was none the wiser. Just a kid wanting to have fun, not realizing how bad it really was. But it made me stronger in a way and wiser too, and now I'm a little more grateful of what I have. Weird to think a game or music made me realize but sometimes its not a game. After all real people put blood sweat and tears into games, something you dont see a lot anymore. Its all just a little too real, a melancholy ending, bittersweet even. All this emotion from pixels on a screen, but now a core memory for different people who have come to enjoy something we all can understand. Maybe being a little broken is okay, thats what us similar isn't it?
Just coming back here after hearing the news that Charles Martinet is retiring as the voice of the Mario Brothers plus Wario and Waluigi. Godspeed, Charles. Thanks for all the memories.
I'm glad I wasn't the only one where this track came to mind for some reason. Doesn't his voice sound almost...solemn in this game? It really matches the vibe. Like when he assures Tippi in Chapter 8-4 that the other 3 companions are still alive.
But he also gave us:
"MMMAAAAAAAMAAA HOOHAAAHOOOO, WOW WOWWW!"
-Mario in Super Mario Sunshine, 2002
Charles will be remembered even when he's gone from this earth...
It’s hard not to listen to this without my heart hurting. 😢
The first three Paper Mario games were something else. A damn shame we're not likely to see anything else like them.
Here from the future to say that TTYD is getting a remake, so things might not be as bleak as we thought :')
God dammit man, the ending always makes me tear up. That final after-credits screen just makes me bawl my eyes out😭
The best paper Mario game IMO, and one of the best Mario games ever made, I wish Nintendo still had this passion and creativity for Mario games.
I gotta play super paper mario, make a series and 100% it again head on in full depth... take notes of what some of the characters say. This game truly just feels magical. And that magic is love itself. After all that's what this game is TRULY about
Maybe I’m just being too optimistic, but it looks like there might be a big creative era of Mario coming soon with the Mario rpg remake and the paper Mario ttyd remake. Not only that but they also brought back Mario and Luigi and it looks awesome! I really hope they sell well so Nintendo can make more creative games.
@@Wetbluecat Maybe I'm being TOO optimistic, but I'm hopeful that someday they'll give Super Paper Mario a remake as well. It sounds impossible, but with the recent releases and the return of the Mario & Luigi saga it fills me with some hope that someday we'll see Super Paper Mario again.
I had no idea the other one had been taken down, thanks so much for reuploading it.
Oh huh, that explains why I didn't have a watched bar over this.
This game is such an underrated gem. Probably my favorite game ever. Everything form the story, the characters, and worlds os perfect.
I will never be able to understand how people hate this game.
This game is so underrated. The story is so heartfelt and emotional and will break your heart at the end of the game. The further into the game you get, the more you realize this adventure isn't just about saving the worlds, but also about love and sacrifice. There are so many meaningful moments in the story and each one of them will break your heart. This is such a damn good game and does not deserve the hate it gets
most of the hate it gets is just cause of it not being a turn based rpg like the previous entries instead being a platformer, but man, it's more than just another game in the series
@@ireallydontknowifiamhonest I know, this is the kind of mario game we may never see again. People see this as a paper mario game and not as a game in general. Its so much more than just a game
@@TheRealBobbleHat while i really agree about the phenomenal story, watching fatguys recent playthrough, the gameplay is honestly lackluster, even for a platformer. that's like one of my only complains about the game and it will remain my favorite paper mario ever.
> does not deserve the hate it gets
I mean.. it's the secondmost popular Paper Mario game behind TTYD. It's not exactly an underrated game anymore, it gets a lot of love.
04:55 that nod to Count Bleck's theme tho!!!
Hold tight
In the dark
There's light that never fades
Some day
We can find that love
We'd known
We pray
That our games will never end
Alone...
I love this game so much. It's a shame Nintendo decided to essentially remove all serious attempts at story telling from the series and all Mario games. And also rip alpha dream. This was a better time
It's a shame, but as time goes on, it feels like many things we like begin to show reflections of greed and lack of care, which in turn makes the things we know and love feel more like hollow eroding husks of their former selves, sorry if that's confusing.
Dimentio won in the end... His perfect world is one where the only unique NPC's are Toads.
@@bobbob1876 NOOOOOOOOOOOO
if you say you got through this game without at least feeling like you're going to cry, you are almost definitely lying
Or heartless, like me, however in my defense I'm generally not emotional.
7-4 was the one to break me tbh
@@dashmaster_sav098same
Best mario game ever.
Change my mind.
I. D A R E. Y O U.
It's alright I guess
In terms of story yes gameplay n o
@@redyoshi4687 exactly
this game is good but it's carried by its story and soundtrack. the gameplay is lackluster and has many issues.
I'd direct this conversation to super mario galaxy or odyssey instead.
Ok,you changed my mind.
It's the best in terms of story,has very good music,i don't know if the best,but very good for sure, and the gameplay is good,but not THAT good.
Staying kinda on the theme here,what do you guys think is the best mario game for gameplay or music?
For me, the Memory tracks are pretty good. The ticking clock, the old film machine whirling, the simple but building melody… I can see why people love it.
But… my favorite track in the entire SPM OST is without a doubt Bounding Through Time. The main motif, the Count Bleck motif, the Memory motif, the ticking clock, the buildup and gorgeous climax… Eee! I love it so much!
This isn’t my favorite Paper Mario game or OST in the series by a long shot, but neither is bad by any means. The soundtrack is still great, and it’s use of motifs and musical storytelling is spectacular.
Easily the BEST paper mario game, or at least the one with the best story. This game legit made me cry at the end.
EDIT: Also might be the darkest mario game.
I would give anything to experience this story for the first time again.
Same
I should play this game a third time, so good
You’ve only played it twice? I’ve played it 4 times and still have no idea how I did it 😂
@@tystrickland shit, i completed it six times. When you're poor and don't have many games, you take what you get 😅
holy shit
this is so fucking powerful if you've played thru the entirety of the story
5:54 it’s always this part that gets me
absolute chills through my whole body
It really hits hard after the grand symphony part brings you to a high to then bring you back down to the calm bittersweet memory section of the beginning again
Nintendo will never keep this one from us.
The 60bpm really does it for me... Every time I listen to this song I inevitably end up looking at a clock and watching the second hand tick away... Reeeaallly gets you reflecting on stuff....
This and Celeste are the only games that made me cry, and this song was part of the reason for it. The tragic love story made me feel things I've never felt from a game before, and that's the highest compliment I can give it
A couple other games that pulled on my heart strings were explorers of sky, and deemo I think.
@@joshcoy6748 I’ve never heard of deemo, what’s system is it on/what’s it about?
This one song… this one song from the game I played so long ago, was and still is enough to tug at my heartstrings and cause me to shed tears.
huh. that profile pic.
Memory.
What a fitting name for this set of tracks. This truly brings back memories.
SPM had the best story and this just hits hard so bad after knowing the context behind it they really made something special here I hope Bleck and Timpani are doing good…wherever they are…..
This game had so many cool characters. I wish we got to see them again.
Damn, this game is 16 years old now. Listening to this makes me feel nostalgic even though I didn’t ever play it until last year.
Those heavy clock ticks hit like a truck every single time.
God, every note hurts the soul. This game touched me in a way very few do
I like how this game starts out as the usual silly and bleepy-bloopy Mario game but before you know it, Mario, peach, Luigi and even bowser are suddenly involved into something far more than themselves or anything they’ve ever experienced
Whoever you are, thank you.
I didn't even know this track was this long, but it is so great
This isn't one track from the game, this is a medley of 5 different variations of the same motif
@@davinchristinoI forgot ):
@@Commander-peepers It's okay (:
Not sure if anyone is still here, but good GOD, this song. The concept of a Mario game being like “even when you lose your memories, love keeps you together” is so fucking powerful, and THE SONG ENFORCES THAT W THE TICKING CLOCK BUT THE MOTIF STILL PLAYING! Genius. Super Paper Mario remake when 😭❤️
Me too, kid.
saved by girl, become wife…Wife die…kill EVERYONE…wife come back…regret…SACRIFICE SELF AND WIFE…wife and me happy…
Deadass one of the saddest and most beautiful mario games
Bless you for bringing this song back in its completion. This is my comfort song and I was honestly considering remixing the songs together myself so I could hear it again. Thank you.
I used the original upload for this in a DnD campaign of mine in the summer of 2019 and was pretty bummed when I saw the original got axed from my music playlist. Thanks for letting me relive that fun memory!
Tell me more. You sound like a good DM.
i love super paper mario so much it's unreal
The original PM, PM:TTYD, and Super Paper Mario were the holy trinity of the Paper Mario games for me. None of the others come anywhere close to these games.
gameplay: 6/10
challenge: 8/10
enjoyment: 10/10
story: 50/10
lore: 5000/10
this game will live in my head forever as nintendos most underrated masterpiece
I want this theme to play when I die
I've thought about this so much. The first 6 minutes play while my life flashes before my eyes, then right as it ends, 5:49 plays.
I would give anything to go back to 2009 and play this game for the first time again.
I just realized that this song makes reference to the Dies Irae theme, which symbolizes death. The tragic story of Blumiere and Timpani, Count Bleck wanting to destroy the world, it fits so well!
ion hear it...
One of the best pieces of music ever made there’s just something about it
Thanks for the memories Nintendo
Super paper mario... is the game man. I now feel like I gotta play the whole story again every time I remember these things...
Such an emotional piece. Also this has surprisingly helped me fall asleep lately.
Literally the best Mario game to me. I doubt Nintendo will top this when it comes to Mario games. It’s beautiful, tragic, and has that touch of darkness. To this day the Memory tracks make me tear up.
Thank God this was reuploaded it’s not right they keep trying to take this down
Since TTYD is getting a remake, there’s hope
If I were to hear this. I wouldn't ever guess that this came from a fucking MARIO game even if I was given 1000 years to guess I would NEVER succeed. Can you imagine if Nintendo made a sequel to this? Even better, a sequel that's fully 3d and not 2d.
It technically was 3D too.
I mean origami king was about as close to a 3d game about paper as you could get....
It doesn’t matter how many times I listen to this…
It genuinely gets me tearing up a bit.
A game about Paper Marios… and lost love.
How about that.
I have never cried so fucking hard before this
Thank you so much kind stranger
This music, especially that beginning melody, really has quite a lot of staying power. I only played this game once, well over a decade ago. But hearing it again got me misty eyed. I think one of the most special things about these Paper Mario games is they had the tonal variety to have moments like this, not just the quirky humor. It seems like they were trying to recapture that with the Origami King when it came out, but it just can't match the creative range on display in the older games.
I wish the paper mario games still went this insane with their stories...
thank you so much for the reupload, I thought this was lost to time.
This song will always remind me of Chuggaaconroy, who introduced me to super paper mario, its painful to see an end of an era
You probably heard about him getting removed from runaway guys and seeking therapy, very sad stuff
@@Lonkshi21 I was in their official discord when it happened, and he didn't get removed, just on indefinite leave
This song started playing while I was reading the documents he posted. Bloody hell did it make me teary eyed.
This piece brings me peace. Thank you.
I wish Nintendo would not get so strict with their music and just let us listen to music from their games or better yet, release soundtracks on their own channel. Let us listen to these masterpieces, Nintendo
I was wondering what happened to the original. Glad that this isn’t lost forever.
Oooo this sounds so nice!
Maybe with Paper mario TTYD remake coming out, we might get a new paper mario after with such a excellent story and ending as perfect as this game.
Thanks you for the reupload i've wanted it so bad
I like 1 and 2, sounds pretty nice.
This could be memories for anything and would suit a sad or reminiscent situation. For this series though this could be memories of this trilogy now that the recent games are *ahem* you know
This stands as probably tied as my most favorite Mario game. Tied between both Galaxy games. Galaxy 1 was my first introductions to video games, and is also in general such an amazing game, with a fairly good story, along with the library. Galaxy 2 because it just felt more fun, and also you didn't just replay the entire same game as luigi to get 100% like in galaxy 1. The soundtracks in both Galaxy games tie it together for me as well, but still. Paper Mario is definitely tied for first with how it has a story like no other game. Its beautiful, and heartwarming. Sure, maybe we strayed away from the RPG style for a bit, but in the end, it was worth it, we got this masterpiece. I cannot describe how much I love this game, the music, the gameplay, (except the one part where you hit a bunch of blocks for a code -.-) the story, and the characters. I even ended up finding my favorite video game character from this game, Dimentio. I love this game so much, and will always cherish it, along with both Galaxy games.
Finally found another one of these, the last one I had playlisted got nuked at some point, you'd be shocked how uncommon a proper mix of all the parts together is, been searching for the better part of a year for a replacement.
It was a good game for many, its story was flawless and perfect. It was just... not Paper Mario. This one was something else.
yep, still makes me cry after all this time ;//w//;
SPM will always be my favorite game in the Paper Mario series. Forever in my heart
THANK YOU
I struggle to finish games i dont know maybe i have a cripling fear of ending things ?
Anyway i tend hop from games to games not finishing them unless they truly get me invested and even most of the time it's thx to the gameplay i finish them. This is the only game that i replayed again and again only for it's story.
i wish for a remake
A remake would be incredible. Alas, we can only hope...
*SCREAMING CRYING WAILING*
I hope for a remake for this game too
