Super Mario: 10 Great Songs That Defined The Franchise

By Raymond Keith Woods /

7. Super Mario Galaxy 2: Main Theme

As good as John Williams best stuff. Yeah I said it. Excuse me if I don't have the musical terminology or pedigree to back up my bold statement but it's the truth. Do you hear those horns. I'll just say plainly that those horns own big time. Not to mention the flutes playing which here is second to none. The overall theme is soaring and heroic, daring and playful; a true beauty to behold. You can't help by let your imagination soar as you hear it. You conjure up images of grand adventures, death defying exploits, noble conquest and grand achievements. This theme simply and effectively in 1:58 seconds does a marvelous thing. It makes you believe in and fully realize the concept of a hero.
