I knew when Balatro was nominated, it wasn’t likely to win… but anyone who enjoys the game won by hearing the theme played. Absolutely incredible to even get nominated.
The Astro Bot music is actually Credits Clash, the music that obviously plays during the credits sequence of the game- the violins are playing the electric guitar melody in the original track. The vocals from I Am Astro Bot are just used for both songs.
2018 - A GOD OF WAR spreading his wife’s ashes 2019 - A samurai in mystical Japan 2020 - A broken girl avenging her father figure 2021 - A husband and wife making amends 2022 - A lowly Tarnished to become the Elden Lord 2023 - A party on a journey across BALDUR’S GATE 2024: A cute little PlayStation Robot
2018 is so ICONIC compared to the other years, just not for the games is because this orchestra was Unic Even Lena raine, D,Angelo and Sarah Schachner (composer for Celeste, Assasins creed and Red dead Redemption, it would be better if woody Jackson was there but unfortunately he was not there but anyway) was on the stage and they are armonizing through the songs so smoothly
My favorite theme of each year: 2017 (including that as well): Super Mario Odyssey 2018: Celeste 2019: Resident Evil 2 2020: Ghost of Tsushima 2021: Metroid Dread 2022: Xenoblade Chronicles 3 2023: Super Mario Bros Wonder 2024: Astro Bot With my two favorites from the two recent years, I can conclude that if it sounds happy, I’m gonna love it.
As far as I'm concerned, 2018 will always be the best. The happy sounding First Steps, Odyssey's guitar, the low tones of the GOW theme, Proof of a Hero on a Gog d*mn synth! I'm definitely not just biased towards MHW, Celeste, and GOW. Though, I do admit, the Sekiro to ResE2 switch is glorious, and the building would've collapsed if they had used the raw, pure BRASS of Final Battle.
you are aware that they pick GOTY songs for how well they can work together in the medley? it doesn’t always work (see Hades into Animal Crossing) but it’s trying to tell a coherent story of all the game releases
@JayEeBee Seriously who cares about medley. Nobody is putting GOTY orchestra into their Spotify playlist. They should have shove in every favourite tracks from each games.

The best part about beiung a goty nominee is seeing your main theme be put in a medley.
Dude shredding on the keytar for Balatro deserves more love imo
Keytar Man and Flute Guy as a combo would be unstoppable
2023 is the best version also FLUTE GUY THE GOAT!!
Hades into Animal Crossing will never not be funny.
I love how the same theme is played at the end of every piece
And the beginning too
It's the game awards theme
honks my clown nose as i go on my way to replace your old video with the updated 2024 version in my playlist.
The Astro Bot music is actually Credits Clash, the music that obviously plays during the credits sequence of the game- the violins are playing the electric guitar melody in the original track. The vocals from I Am Astro Bot are just used for both songs.
Legend for constantly updating after every game award sad w couldn’t see pre 18 but still the compilation is great
2018 - A GOD OF WAR spreading his wife’s ashes
2019 - A samurai in mystical Japan
2020 - A broken girl avenging her father figure
2021 - A husband and wife making amends
2022 - A lowly Tarnished to become the Elden Lord
2023 - A party on a journey across BALDUR’S GATE
2024: A cute little PlayStation Robot
so not to be the nerd emoji but BG3 is morseo a party on a journey to Baldurs gate as baldurs gate is a city the world their going through is Faerun
Also Wolf from Sekiro is absolutely not a samurai lol
2018 is so ICONIC compared to the other years, just not for the games is because this orchestra was Unic
Even Lena raine, D,Angelo and Sarah Schachner (composer for Celeste, Assasins creed and Red dead Redemption, it would be better if woody Jackson was there but unfortunately he was not there but anyway) was on the stage and they are armonizing through the songs so smoothly
2018 will always be the best year for games❤
Hey, thansk so much for updating this every year! You rock!
My pleasure! ❤️😇
Hellllll yeah!!! Thank you for making this so quickly!
2019 and 2020 were the best musically wise :)
My pleasure! 2020 is my favorite too 😇❤️
thanks for the update! this is always my favorite part of the awards, just brilliant every time. shout out to 2020 as my personal fave
My pleasure! I love the transitions of the 2020 one too ❤️😇
2022 is still my favorite.
I’ve never played MHW but the 2018 arguably wouldn’t be as fluid as it is without it so props
It’s a very different kind of game than the story focused titans of that year but absolutely fantastic with several hundred hours worth of content.
2023 Medley best imo
2018 my goat (honorable mention to 2019 and 2020, also 2024)
2020 is so seamless
Flute guy ❤
My favorite theme of each year:
2017 (including that as well): Super Mario Odyssey
2018: Celeste
2019: Resident Evil 2
2020: Ghost of Tsushima
2021: Metroid Dread
2022: Xenoblade Chronicles 3
2023: Super Mario Bros Wonder
2024: Astro Bot
With my two favorites from the two recent years, I can conclude that if it sounds happy, I’m gonna love it.
As far as I'm concerned, 2018 will always be the best. The happy sounding First Steps, Odyssey's guitar, the low tones of the GOW theme, Proof of a Hero on a Gog d*mn synth!

This is how you realize 2023 was so good
The 2018 one remains unbeatable, you can't change my mind.
5:26 🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅
I wasn't the biggest fan of the 2023 version, it wasn't bad I just felt like some of the songs weren't great picks but this year they did great.
2018 IS THE GOAT, 2020 NEXT
No Cup of Liber-Tea here is 😢
The name of the track from Metaphor: ReFantazio is Warriors in Valour, btw
Thank you! Updating it asap ❤️
Damn yall move fast lol
MHW 3:00
The orchestra started from 2017
Wukong should have won but congrate to astrobot nonetheless
2018 is best
And the 2017?
FF7 Remake part 3 better play “One-Winged Angel”.
23:50 We Asians don't want that theme, we want the Celestial Symphony song for Wukong in the orchestra
you are aware that they pick GOTY songs for how well they can work together in the medley? it doesn’t always work (see Hades into Animal Crossing) but it’s trying to tell a coherent story of all the game releases
@JayEeBee Seriously who cares about medley. Nobody is putting GOTY orchestra into their Spotify playlist. They should have shove in every favourite tracks from each games.
BALATRO
What happened to 2017?
Guess because the performance was before the debut of the GotY theme
@jaidens.g.1920 but it's still from the game awards
I can't wait for Metroid Prime 4 to sweep the 2025 game awards.
Bro, GTA VI is dropping the same year
@@cloudshines812 You underestimate the power of Bird Magic. GTA may be a much bigger name, but Beyond will be a much better game.
@@calvinbrinenestoris2357 We’ll see… I can’t wait for both anyways
@@cloudshines812 Indeed. I can't believe next year we'll have GTA VI competing with Metroid Prime 4 for game of the year. Hell has frozen over.
2018 is the Best❤ 2022 is too Stray and Elden Ring themes sound so gooood! And this year Astrobot Wukong Rebirth Metaphor just amazing👏🩷
2018 was my fav year too
