Viva La Mario?

[zepdrix]

kind of dumb, only implies a similar rhythm, chords on not the same

[silverwasp]

Missing one note near the end.

[bengivens03]

That's the star power noise for Mario Kart!

[GonnaMarryTheNightTV]

OMG

[thedudeyeah]

lol this is a stupid. every song sound like mario if you speed it up

[HiTmAn0104]

@thedudeyeah bull shit. go try it with another song...

[LuigiHoax]

koji kondo (mario composer) would be proud

[sedgewickz]

WRONG

[PeaceDecoder]

STUMBLE MAN.

[fenixdark77]

jaaaaaa

[YwkyWy37]

This literally had me laughing my ass off for a solid 2 minutes after it ended. Well played, internet.

[tek32272]

200% speed: It Already Sounds Like Star Power.

[vedinthorn]

No, actually, it doesn't match, but it is close.

[danman67214]

Easteregg.

[fearlessz000]

Are you retarded? The only thing they have in common, is the rhythm. The notes aren't even close to each other.

[mafatu32]

@fearlessz000 I wonder if that's going to be in their defense.

[MIORBO]

:( cool :)

[titilandus21]

Lol! Awesome :3

Love tht song :)

[Coldplayed88]

Lol hahaha that's gold.

[edcellwarrior]

Wow 0_0

[RCandrea7]

this is crap

[almacocoa98]

HOLY SHIT!!! Wait, sorry, I know this is a little bit out of theme but look!!!

VEVO completly took over YouTube! Even the icon in the tab it's not the same!

[PlayaAwesome]

lol :D i never noticed that before

[cardiffGIANT067]

holy shit that is funny.

Music these days is such garbage.

[DannyPhantomFan2]

This has to be one of my favorite songs of alltime, and you turned it into something I was laughing at for quite some time. Thank you sir.

[EricDerViking]

Yes the songs are different douchebags. However...its still fucking funny.

[JohNNyBcOoL17]

i knew tht band was on mushrooms:P

[robert9901]

I hate Coldplay more than any band not named Nickelback, and no. Not even close.

[AOCRkid]

very different

[liquidfireKAN]

@MrRoboto113 - it's so popular now cause tons of website like reddit, and funnyjunk have been posting it ... Well that's my guess

[0nkelchen]

... not even close!

[BlarKedi3]

Lol, FJ xD

[TheMostEpicNameEver]

FUNNYJUNK I AM HUNGRY!!!

.....FOR MORE!!!

[Dallasrocker124]

i honestly thought they ripped off from rick astley

[darkblazeman]

Thumbs up this SHIT if FunnyJunk brought you here! And yes, I am a thumb whore :3

[speedyvedo99]

@darkblazeman then fuck you bothways with a brick

[darkblazeman]

@speedyvedo99 Bring it -_-

[Republicraticparty]

Funnyjunk is for faggots

[bobscanfly]

FUNNYJUNK!!!!

[phiero2424]

Coldplay still is fucking awesome though...

[FluffyBunnyYellow]

Funnyjunk, FUCK YEAH!

[conemen1]

@FluffyBunnyYellow YEAH!

[yourmomwasherelol]

@FluffyBunnyYellow *roll picture*

[yourmomwasherelol]

@FluffyBunnyYellow *roll 2* dubs nigga

[ThePandaGun]

Musically these two tunes are irrelevant. They only have a similar rhythm when the BPM is synced, but the keys are completely off. Also, the progression of keys is not the same, which is why it sounded so bad when played simultaneously. PS Funnyjunk sent me here.

[DarkNatasX]

@ThePandaGun Oh really? People like you, are fucking Kill joys. Always have to have everything perfect, and if it's not, you write a big sentence.

[ThePandaGun]

@DarkNatasX It's OK, we're on the internet so nobody cares what you think either. Good day to you! *turns up nose and storms off to different URL*

[DarkNatasX]

@ThePandaGun So?

[ThePandaGun]

@DarkNatasX As if you want more? I just clearly told you that this is retarded. I'm sure you can find another flame war.

[DarkNatasX]

@ThePandaGun So?

[conemen1]

@ThePandaGun  YEAH!

[ThePandaGun]

@conemen1 FJ FTW

[darkblazeman]

@conemen1 YEAH!

[AkaneKonae]

@ThePandaGun Thank you, someone with a brain.

And actually, Coldplay got sued for this song for taking the rhythm and progression from another song... I forgot what it was called.

[iamMRRECONODSTRULES]

*roll picture* mfw..... oh yea....

[conemen1]

@iamMRRECONODSTRULES YEAH!

[darkblazeman]

@conemen1 YEAH!

[DotMapFile]

FJ

[halfness11]

Sounds nothing like it.

Holy shit, get your ears checked.

[imthunderstruck]

do people actually think they sound alike? for god's sake when they are put together the interval of the second chord is a dim 5th which sounds terrible together.

[Darksector21]

Le Funnyjunk brought me here.

[Forbelicious]

Nice to see that over 1,000 people of YouTube are tonedeaf.

[thojyout23]

LOL!

[AnimalCrossingX]

Who cares? Coldplay is shit either way.

[BellaSajor]

I read the description, but hey, I'd say that alot of songs sound like that mario theme when sped up. They don't have the same notes or anything.

[percphs]

... the rhythms are similar... chords... not the same at all.

[remnant24]

Saying they sound similar is a stretch, even when one is sped up to match the other.

[SuicidalxCheesecake]

i'll never listen to Viva la Vida the same again @__@

[saporob]

and stop ti stumble upon this shit, it s so stupid, it s the same time, but different chords and totally different feeling

[tom1993rox]

*ahem*

watch?v=c3LM2iQ8p7A

[YoshiYummy]

lol cool. but still, they can't really steal, they probably got the idea 4 it, so mario helped them!

[Gavrek]

What a stretch

[seanyboyrebel]

Sounds fuck-all like it tbh

[ski11z666]

first of all, it, it doesn't really sound like mario. Second of all, as a musician, i know that all music is borrowed, so it wouldn't make a difference if it sounded kind of like mario or not.

[seanyboyrebel]

@ski11z666

"As a musician"? Get over yourself pal

[ski11z666]

@seanyboyrebel what can I say, I'm just great

[rsfeller]

just because you CAN connect the dots doesn't mean you should...I'd call this a FAIL on every level...

[Svveetkiss]

This is a geneous joke hahaa

[MultiRationale]

nope



[midkn1ght23]

Me thinks he's trolling....

[OofmanRulz]

This is epic! And everyone needs to calm the fuck down. Geez, it's a joke and a good one too.

[DistanceJM]

It seems just ridiculous to think two songs sound the same! But...then again, there are only a finite number of note and rhythm combinations. Kind of interesting that these two songs slightly match up though. Maybe if you altered the tone when you speed it up it would sound more accurate.

[BenjiMan200]

My lord, what is wrong with everyone? It's a joke, a funny fucking joke. Chill out!

[klem07]

it doesnt sound the same. it has the same rhythm when the tempo is drastically changed, but all the notes are still different. sounds cool and dissonant when played together though.

[roboelixir]

This is one of my favorite songs, but this is flippin' hilarious!

[XxKilleredxX]

I think what might be happening is that both songs follow basic patterns, not actually a direct copy. If it IS a copy I'm sure it wasn't intentional.

[jtzproductions]

Mind blown.

[Shannonmorrison]

Good song though.

[slashudson1987]

-_- really...

[joshuaoha]

Everyone thinks that song sounds just like some other song. Several different musicians have sued claiming it is a copy of something they created. But I don't really give a flying fuck if the devil himself made it. from the sound of his own flatulence... It's great catchy little tune.

[UrbanDecay1009]

lol.. you guys are so fuckin immature... the beat is pretty close.. not identical but i dont think either sides are right. one is saying it sounds nothing like it and the one who made it says it does.. a lot of songs have the exact same background beat to it whether you speed it up or not.. but sorry dude the notes are completely different.. good try though.. must've taken a lot of time sitting infront of the computer doing nothing though lol

[dmbparker]

LOL Trolls

[MATTLINNFTW]

NO

[jony4gen]

i don't even like the coldplay song... but this is just ridiculous!

[jony4gen]

i don't even like the coldplay song... but this is just ridiculous!

[bilos1993]

Haha! LOL! This sounds like Canon in D by Pachelbel as well... But so do most songs...

[romanianskill]

those two songs sound nothing alike... even after speeding it up...

[fonzi0243]

Nope!

[murdockqotsa]

You're tone deaf haha.

[dacrazeekorean]

i'm sorry, but you are a retard....this sounds nothing like what mario you played, and to say that Coldplay actually slowed down the mario song to get to viva la vida is ludacris...you're a moron who shouldn't be able to make videos....that is all...

[MrRoboto113]

@dacrazeekorean 1. "Ludicrous"

2. Thank you for reading the description before commenting

3. Go outside and play a game of Hide-And-Go-Fuck-Yourself.

[dacrazeekorean]

@MrRoboto113 oh, i'm so hurt....i'm just gonna die from the fact that i have an asshole correcting me about my criticism of his fucking-lame retarded video! What are you gonna do about it? you can bitch and moan all you want, but it still doesn't negate the fact that your video is retarded...

[MrRoboto113]

@dacrazeekorean That's right. Double down the insults instead of admitting you were wrong and apologizing. I bet you're gonna do it again too. Or will you impress me by shutting up?

[MrRoboto113]

@dacrazeekorean No... it wouldn't be the option you would take. Not because of what you said (mostly because you said a whole lot of nothing), but because you're too full of yourself to ever admit that you're wrong, and too stubborn to stop when you've lost. And I'm not arguing with you. I'm just informing you that you're wrong and presumptuous.

[martyn580]

@MrRoboto113 LOL, look at his youtube name...he is obviously a retard

[SwizzleMix]

@MrRoboto113 It's not polite to argue with lower life forms, Roboto. Just show him to the nearest cliff.

[NavXD]

@MrRoboto113 Well said good sir!

[MegaOldnews]

@MrRoboto113 Faith in humanity restored.

[ski11z666]

@MrRoboto113 and @dacrazeekorean:

You guys are both retarded. That's all I have to say.

[Romanlieutenant19]

@MrRoboto113 You need to stop replying. That's the only way he'll stop. You won, anyway! His comments have negative votes, yours have POSITIVE ones.

[stludachris]

@Romanlieutenant19 shut up. stay out of it.

[purpleomlet]

@dacrazeekorean

Someone here is too stupid to realize this video is a joke.

[eScythe]

@dacrazeekorean ENGLISH MOTHERFUCKER, DO YOU SPEAK IT?

[cakepizzapie]

@dacrazeekorean bro, give up. No one is on your side.

Because your side is for dickbags.

[cakepizzapie]

@dacrazeekorean bro, give up. No one is on your side.

Because your side is for dickbags.

[Romanlieutenant19]

@dacrazeekorean Just stop, you imbecile. He's won, for god sake! You're getting ALL negative votes, and HE'S getting ALL thumbs up. YOU ARE AN IMBECILE.

[sylux184z]

@dacrazeekorean You Suck At Argueing

[slothzen1]

@MrRoboto113

Looks like someone's troll radar is broken.

[MeagainLovesYou]

@dacrazeekorean lol "i'm sorry, but you are a retard..."

[sylux184z]

@dacrazeekorean You Lose

[LoneQuietus]

This isn't what it seems. When it's sped up you are REDUCING the quality, you aren't 'bringing out' where the mario song came from. You're making the overall sound simpler so that it more closely resembles the chords used as kionay stated.

[aahhmmeedd112233]

THIS IS LIKE A PHYCADELLIC DREAM

[Deadparrot99ss]

Look up coldplay versus Joe satriani for the song they REALLY ripped off

[zadok23]

I call bullshit and claim indiffernce to any response to this comment

[mellowmark1]

This is a reach.

[kionay]

you'll find these kinda things often if you look for musical chord progressions that are popular

a.g. pachabel's cannon in D's chord progression being used in like 70% of today's pop songs and such

there are only so many chords, and so fewwer chord progressions that sound exceptionally well

these coincidences are bound to pop up in the music industry here and there

but nice video, quite entertaining

[mudandbleach]

bleh, not similar in the least bit. slightly similar rhythm (when sped up), common chord progression (not a big deal), not even in the same neighborhood pitch/key wise.

[VinnyVanYiffy]

between this and this song being used in a spoof of the GCN startup screen, Coldplay is pretty much (C) Nintendo

[lilbuzz2000]

not exactly the sane the beat is off

[stickybunthrowdown]

wow, a similar rhythm. those bastards.

[Provinceman]

It's not like the ripped off anything, there is only so many chords and sounds and so many different ways to put them together, a repeat is inevitable.

[13DCOP]

men U have reason its the same sounds...thats incredibal¡¡

[Kelohmello]

This is really not even funny. It's no unfunny, but it's not funny either.

[NoRegUser]

Viva La VIda Rules : ) Fuck Mario.... I Don't think this group needs in  stoling melody. it's just coincidence : ) IMO : X

[pyrochemists]

doesn't mean coldplay is invincible if they play this song

[ToXXicTeRRor]

The two tracks clearly clash when they play them at the same time. The tune is similar, but the notes are totally different. Especially when you take into account that the pitch of the notes in Viva La Vida were changed as it was sped up. It's not a ripoff.

[DaVince21]

@ToXXicTeRRor You're making a comment on a video made by a person who mostly makes YTPs and videos that are all about the humor.

Just wanted you to realize that. ;)

[Mosobot64]

@ToXXicTeRRor No, its not an outright rip-off, but it does sound like an interesting harmonic, eh? Maybe some djs should further explore the idea. ;)

[stevenlee7]

I wonder what Joe Satriani has to say about this.

[nebraskasux24]

You people are idiotic enough to believe coldplay said when they were writing this "hey I have an Idea! Lets slow down the super Mario theme!" really people?!?? Its a fucking cowincidene

[yewiyewiya3]

@nebraskasux24 Moooooooo!

[DannyPhantomFan2]

Even though I love Viva la vida myself, I lauged my ass off at this.

[Krumb2]

The rhythm is there, but it sounds nothing like it.

[smegace]

This is why I love the internet.

[DeeJaeGee]

Piss off you attention seeking fuckface it's blatantly not stolen you worthless piece of crap, stop hating you retarded piece of shit

[bRAKENSgNARSH]

:/ .... :l .... O_____________O

[super6plx]

except for one crucial thing, the notes of the song.

mario key - f f f, f f f f fff, e e e, e e e eeee, ff f ff f ff, eee e e e ee,

this song - f f f, fg, g, gggg, e e e, ee, e, eeee, f f f, fg, g, gggg, e e e, ee, e, eeee,

different key, not only to begin with, but continuing forward it's different notes altogether.

not stolen, but very very similar

[TotodilePkmnLover]

@super6plx You're a troll

[super6plx]

@TotodilePkmnLover really I don't see how I'm a troll, I quite seriously just said the notes of both motiffs - they're extremely similar but definitely not the same, not by far just because the notes are actually different

[DaVince21]

@super6plx You were too serious on a video that was just a joke. {:-<

[super6plx]

@DaVince21 yeah I suppose :D

[VaakoUchiha]

my mind is officially blown

[JimdeBrouwer]

PUT A 8-BIT FILTER OVER THE SPEED SONG!!

[AlejandraControl]

Ha, way neat!

[OlliSchulzFan]

That's Humbug

[Schmauzik]

stealers-> "Aumojekoule.eu"

[DigiRena]

You discovered something amazing! :D <3

[danielmetalze]

WTF!? que buena "observación"

[pitufito4757]

jajajajaja. cómo se raya la peña!!!!!!!

[melissaypak]

LMFAO!! THATS SO TRUE! try with omg by usher with homer simpson 's christmas in december

[BCTheEntity]

Someone needs to make the overlapped songs a downloadable MP3/MP4/ITune/whatever. That'd be awesome.

[soueuzito]

LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWL­LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

[UnderAPileOfDix]

coldplay's producer: rythym for a song rythym for a song,...

OH I KNOW LETS SLOW DOWN THE MARIO INVINCIBILITY THEME 217% ITS ORIGIONAL AND KNOWONE WILL FIRGURE IT OUT.

[slask25]

I don't like Coldplay and think I got more talent in my stinky lefttoe than the entire band put together, but this aint even close, not by a longshot. There is alot of plagiarism, and sampling(what I call stealing but that's for another video) in the music industry but this missed the mark completely. Dunno how this become so popular. Must be how stupid the whole thing is.

[AllThatAndABag0Chips]

Thumbs up if you found this video because of collegehumor !

[AssassinBK]

yea this video doesnt make sense at all... it sounds nothing like it. there's so many difference in syncopation and the actual notes played.

the tones are more then a semi-tone off in nearly the whole thing. i guess this video makes has a valid point... if you're an idiot.

in the words of the loser that posted this video: "that is all"

[Tkscz]

@AssassinBK Butt-hurt much? It was simply something he heard, and you know what, I hear it too. So please stop being an ass will you?

[jamauln1]

Son of a BITCH!!!
