  • brings back so much memories, they should make a new 2d zelda game for nintendo 3ds

  • The soundtrack to this game should get a oscar!!!

  • @DudeLPs Oscars are for acting. Perhaps you meant a Grammy?

  • @CrypticDrumLord

    Oh yes for sure, my bad ;P

  • I remember turning this game on just to go to the dark world and listen to this song. It's so fucking awesome.

  • This theme makes me flashback to the time when i was 5 or 6 playing this game..... Good times :')

  • This is meh top 10 of favorite themees of all time

  • i havent been able to beat that ice theme dungeon since i was a child, its like the older i get the dumber i get with the old games =\ the music is embedded in my brain tho, ill never get rid of it

  • @Noobahmastah

    Omg I feel the same way. I used to be able to breeze through a game, now I have to look back. Even with the New Zelda I have problems, but I am getting there... I'm only 22, I feel so ancient with them now XD

  • Comment removed

  • In my opinion this is the real Zelda theme.

  • Best video game and best video game song ever.

  • This Gurrudo valley (OOT) and Deku palace (MM) are the three best zelda songs.

  • @estherbeirne You might like dragon roost as well then, if you havent played wind waker.

  • Did you think you beat the game? HA! You haven't even seen the half yet!!

  • You know, I actually hate the word "Epic". It's truly a nerdy way of describing everything that is in some way good. But this song...this song changes my viewpoint.

  • @lookherejim Your mother is epic at sucking cock. do you like how I use the word epic then?

  • @jcgonzmo Yeah, but shes even more epic at licking pussy, or so ive heard :S

  • The fanfare beckons you into a new, unexpected world where everything you know is deformed, yet sickeningly still recognisable. You realise the last few hours you spent hunting down your Excalibur was nothing but training for a bigger, more daunting quest. You look to a dirty brown map and see not three but seven flashing icons, representing the seven trapped maidens. The epic music is melodically twisted as a new excitement overcomes you.

    Welcome to the Dark World.

  • @HiBleach Nice

  • They should remake this epic game with better graphics, if they can make anything better than this. They would probably ruin this treasure in gaming history by trying.

  • ahhh

    I still know when i was little my mom played this game

    and then i got older so i tryed it to But on her save file

    everything I heard this theme I thought damn this game rules

  • I've only really played this game for the first time recently [bought it on the wii VC]. It is infinitely great. Truely a magical game.

  • FUCK, NOW I HAVE TO PLAY THE GAME AGAIN! WOOHOO!!!!!

  • this game should have a label:

    warning! after you've played this game, every other game will suck

  • it makes me wonder how is OoT more popular than this...

  • @superkeenenbell

    - cause kiddies like them 'cool graphics'!

    lame... OoT was good, but far from great in comparison to A Link to the Past.

  • @MasterHypnose indeed...best zelda game ever

  • @MasterHypnose

    - it's like why ff7 is more popular than ff6...

  • @superkeenenbell Ocarina of Time is better than A Link to the Past because of the gameplay and damn, this game came SOO close

  • The game might be called "A link to the past", but even to this day in the future, its music is memorable.

  • Billy Mays should've had this song playing in his infomercials... woulda sold a lot more oxycleans

  • The theme song from the dark world

    It's a dark place

    That's menacing

    And dark

    Really daaark

  • You sound like The Doctor. :p

  • You don't need words to explain the power of the Super Nintendo. You need this song.

  • This is TOO FUCKING SHORT!!!

  • I have this tuned on when i'm pumping iron at the gym :D

  • this game was so hard to beat at first lol

  • Myamoto said it's POSSIBLE that they remake this for the 3DS... ALLTTP in 3d? OoT style? Meh....I love 3D Zelda games but if a game was originally made in 2D, I want it's remake, if there's one, to keep the same style.

  • @ChampionRevilo hey they could he a double link an upgrade 3d and 3d vershion

  • @bigal2k643 Sry but I didn't understand what you said lol.

  • @ChampionRevilo i think he meant they could do a double remake, kind of like the Gamecube Master quest Disc, you could choose between the original and masterquest, they could have a menu between a 2D and 3D version of the game

  • best zelda game i ever played!

  • 10 people got killed trying to fight Hinox as soon as they got to the Dark world

  • This music is on EVERYONE'S top videogame music list!

    Your list. My list. The other top vgm music list I subscribe to. Another list I saw....

  • And this is what I find going through the Webmaster's profile.

    Jimmy, I love you for this link. :)

  • "A Link to the Past" was so vast, creative, mystical, mysterious, enchanting, stylish and challenging. I'm not suprised it has yet to be surpassed in a world were gaming is becoming more shallow than ever. It takes a lot of "heart' and "dedication" to make a game of this caliber. All the Money and Technology in the world can't buy that.

  • First Zelda game ive ever played, i still cant beat gannon 'till this very day on the SNES :'(

  • OMG I miss this game sooooo much, I used to play it with my sister and dad when I was like 10.

    I think ima cry now caz I feel soo old

  • awesome music :]

  • I need to download this. ._.

  • This track sums up the word "epic"

  • And by the way, has there ever been a bigger leap in the history of videogaming?

    Not in my humble opinion, but of course, it depends on what you like.

    I like this. I´m not saying that all games that came after this are worse than this, but, compare all games to their predecessor, has there ever been a leap like in this case? If you are still reading you are probably nerdy enough to appreciate that this experience in the early 90´s was something special, and I never experienced it again! ; )

  • Beast Game.

  • Beast Tune.

  • damn nintendo sure makes how to make awesome songs

  • Kondo Koji is a genius. The man that turned a Salsa tune into the Mario theme also wrote this lovely (if stern) march. It's ominous yet hints at a fallen glory. Superb.

  • 9 People got pwned by the Creatures and Warriors of the Dark World... !! ; )

  • Pink Bunnies!

  • KING K WUZ HERE 2011

  • what's everyone's favourite zelda game?

  • @ruthemerald A Link to the Past ftw!

  • @Beledal <3

  • @ruthemerald this obviously

  • Fail :/

  • Ganondorf made 8 accounts and... no... not even Ganondorf could dislike this...

  • @kishire6murcielago eh? of course he wouldnt, this was his world, he made this song lol

  • @shatta54321 well it's not really what he wanted... he wanted hyrule, right? he got a messed up version lol.

  • @kishire6murcielago lol i think he wanted this world and hyrule, since this was the golden land until gannon touched the triforce, and turned it into the dark world, and THEN made this cool ass song to go along with it lmao

  • @shatta54321 yes... i concede defeat.

  • i want to be a kid agien

  • OMG !!! so much memories of me playing this with my stepfather for the first time :O That was my favorite theme in the entire game :D

  • 8 ppl failed to get the moon pearl

  • 8 people forgot to get the moon pearl and died against endless hordes of enemies

  • I´m sorry to say that almost, not all, but almost every game ever since (in some way comparable) has been a disappointment. This game raised my expectations so high for future games it more or less ruined my interest for videogames. Nothing compares to this. Nothing stands out like this. Not 20 years later. This is it.

  • @Lusebusen This was one of the first games I played, I remember me and my sister opening up that bran new SNES on Christmas morning, we got two games LTTP, and some TMNT game (which also kicked loads of ass). Anyway I feel the same as you, it was so awsome it ended up raising my expectations (as did A LOT of 90's games) only to be disapointed decades later

  • @FreyaTalhamn Turtles in TIme?

  • @Lusebusen More than plenty of other games that are as memorable as this buddy :P I won't list names because everyone has their own taste, but I do agree with you that LTTP is unreachably sky-high in replay value that no other game in the world has. Just saying that there's a long list of games other than LTTP that were (are) just as worthwhile and enriching in their own right as this game is.

  • @BusaLova Hey! Yeah, of course there were other good games, but I think lots of people agree; this one is special. It´s touching. It´s nostalgia. This and and that is said to be epic, well, this is epic. I spoke my mind and I guess there are people who can relate. Enjoy your gaming!

  • @Lusebusen well said! todays consoles are after my time. nothing can surpass zelda link to the past. maybe the gameboy monochrome zelda (links awakening). nah, link to the past is still better. ocarina of time was a letdown musicwise, coming from the same composer, thats funny.

  • @shairaptor except the final boss theme really gave atmosphere

  • @metalsonic641 it's been years since I played OOT (1998) but yeah some music was atmospheric! :)

  • @Lusebusen well atleast we have smg 1 and 2 and we got sonic generations coming up

  • @Lusebusen OCARINA OF TIME WAS BEST 3D GAME EVER.

  • @Lusebusen I miss games like this. I still replay this game tons, because not only is it fun, but you can play it a lot of different ways. I'm not into the linear games with no choices.

  • @SmaddyDiva I hear that, like the contemporary (snes) SMW and Metroid, you can go about and exlore and return later to places you haven´t visited yet. That´s something i like too, to play one game in different ways, different times. About ALTTP, you can experiment and see how much you can do without full gear, all heart containers, etc., it takes a long time before you run out of options and that´s one more thing that makes this particular game so great, and fun to play!

  • @Lusebusen You must have a sad, sad life then, my friend. If nothing compares to LttP, then you must be playing some really crappy games.

  • @XularusXIII Yeah well, seems like a couple of people agree with me when I say I had huge expectations on that game, and it lived up to them all and more. Now, take a look at the newest Zelda game. The graphics looks like it´s from the 64 in 1996! Look at Mario Galaxy, the gameplay is in a lot of details taken from SMW2 and that game is from 1995! These are not bad games at all, but there is no WOW factor anymore! Take a look at the recent AVGN review of ZSS, as stated; good game - but no leap.

  • @Lusebusen Ocarina of time?

  • @Lusebusen Couldn't have said it better myself. Ocarina of Time was good and is generally the most favored Zelda game of them all, but in my opinion it derived most of its epicness from ALTTP. The music, the 3 dungeon/master sword/endgame dungeon layout, Kakariko Village. Nothing compares to ALTTP, and nothing ever will.

  • This is my personal top five favorite list of Zelda games, in order!

    1) ALTTP

    2) Majora's Mask

    3) Ocarina of Time

    4) Legend of Zelda

    5) Link's Awakening

  • @1600Percent

    I agree, Majora's Mask might have been hated by people due to its repetitive quests and time system, but if one actually managed to overlook the inital shock one might have with the game, in it's entirety it IS A LOT Better!

    Still, nothing could compare, if only for nostalgia's sake, to the first Zelda game that actually got it working. Zelda one was the starter, but ALLTP figured out the perfect formula for purpose Zelda proposed itself and shaped the series it is today!

  • @1600Percent So close to my list! I put the original in 7th place with Link's Awakening and the Oracle titles above it. Majora's Mask and OoT will often switch places depending on how I'm feeling. The rest of the series was way too linear for my tastes. I love games where you can utilize almost any trick in your arsenal to get things done in a different order without having a negative effect on 100% completion. That's why Super Metroid and this game are infinitely replayable.

  • look at the scenic on the pic at 0:14

  • today i unexpectedly found myself humming to this tune and i realized OMG DARK WORLD

    so here i am listening to it

    and i think im gonna grab my controller cuz the nostalgia is compelling...

  • MY GOD ;w; that's all I have to say....

  • 8 people got sprinkled with magic powder

  • 8 persons keep dying because of the cyclops.

  • Best.Zelda.GAME.EVER. and best zelda track ever made

  • Zelda at it's best. They made it too cartoony these days, with exception to Twilight princess. I just think the magic of the older games, Ocarina of time included, isn't there as much.

  • This is the perfect song for "LET'S GET SOMETHING DONE." Building a house? Dark World. Roadtrip? Dark World. Takin' the dog for a walk? Dark World. Makin' a sandwich? Dark World. Sexy times in the bed room?

    ....well you'll be kicked out of the bedroom, but DARK WORLD BABY.

  • @Alexx1083 Why would you get kicked out of the bedroom? :D

  • @Alexx1083 You just reminded me that i actually had to go and make a sandwich. Thanks.

  • @Alexx1083

    There are actually HOT geeky girls. And I've had the pleasure to meet 2.

  • @pervysage35 I have no doubt that you have, but you find a hot geeky girl that is also turned on by the Dark World theme then YOU MARRY THAT WOMAN.

  • @Alexx1083 I wouldn't kick that guy out. Man after my own heart...

  • Nostalgia attack at full effect. :)

  • this brings back hella memories

    this was my first game, i started it when i was 4 years old. . . and didn't beat it until i was seven - my brain had to catch up with the game, lol

  • The best song in the game, hands down

  • Comment removed

  • Memories of school teenage years and seeing everything in reality as a Zelda obstacle lol

  • @cewing777 lol..you too eh?...walking past the super market. like "hmm..I see that crack in the wall back there...if only I had a bomb....."

  • I want to forget ths game, and play it again without knowing how to beat it, so I can enjoy playing it more. Maybe in 20 + years again.

  • was i the only one who had this song playing in their mind while playing adventure games as a child?

  • pyraoooooo

  • As a kid, I always thought those rocks in the picture at 0:44 looked like pancakes with syrup.

  • @Tomblazerzor you're not alone

  • 8 people disliked this cuz they thought this should be #1 instead #56

  • So. Much. Memories.

    Overload!

  • the theme at a moment in the game when shit got real.

  • Best zelda theme EVER

  • This was one of the happiest moments of my childhood. To realize my game just doubled in size. :D

  • god damn did this world crank up the ass kicking for the game and link

  • This game and majoras mask are the 2 best zeldas to Me, oot was ok but it lacked the darkness this game and marjoas mask had, zelda games are too colourful most of the time now :(, tp was a copout, hope skyward sword is awesome.

  • If only there was a dark world in ocarina of time and this theme, nintendo needs to remake this game and no oot isn't a remake of this it has some similarities but that's it.

  • I know that I'm no the only one that prefers this over the normal Overworld theme.

  • Great song.

  • use the mirror to get outta the place

  • this deserves more than a number 56 spot.

  • @EnXh94 These songs aren't in any particular order of importance really.

  • @Jantern oh my bad. Im such a fool ^^'

  • @TaInTeDlYnX I agree fully, I've had this game since around the time it came out for the Gameboy Advance, and I still enjoy this game more than any other game I've played on gameboy.

  • Memories~ ♥

    My remix of this song : /watch?v=pWIJ3jMHCm4

  • Nostalgic fit

  • As i read in another video, this video is a link to my past. Lovely afternoons playing A link to the past.

  • how do you dislike this!!!!?

  • the fanfare beckons you into a new, unexpected world where everything you know is deformed, yet sickeningly still recognisable. You realise the last few hours you spent hunting down your Excalibur was nothing but training for a bigger, more daunting quest. You look to a dirty brown map and see not three but seven flashing icons, representing the seven trapped maidens. The epic music is melodically twisted as a new excitement overcomes you.

    Welcome to the Dark World.

  • @waldronfire

    I got goosebumps after reading that. Good times!!

  • @waldronfire thats possibly the nerdiest thing ever lol

  • @theSolo33 at least nerds are smart. lol

  • @waldronfire I never thought it could be so eloquently spoken.

  • @waldronfire I love you man. You made me cry manly tears. LOL!!!

  • @waldronfire

    summing up what you just said:

    "oh crap."

  • @waldronfire

    Actually, technically this isn't the music that plays when you first enter the dark world. But that was such an epic description that I'll let it pass.

  • @NibblesAndCasino and we both know the "rabbit" music doesn't even come close to this!

  • @waldronfire

    true, true.

  • @waldronfire You pretty much summed up everything that went through my mind when I first made it to the Dark World many years ago when I was about 9 years old. One of the most memorable moments I've had while gaming.

  • @waldronfire Indeed sir. Indeed!!!

  • @waldronfire The almost 200 thumbs up may speak for themselves, but I say it anyway: WELL SAID! You captured pretty everything most of the people, who played this many years ago, were thinking when they reached the dark world. One word: EPIC!

  • @waldronfire Amen brother, amen!

  • @waldronfire

    That may just be the best paragraph in history...

  • The only good Zelda game as far as I'm concerned. I didn't even like Ocarina of Time 0.o;

  • @RayLedgend Go die.

  • @NHFandHFP Whoa. Why? What did I do?

  • @RayLedgend Openly admitting of not liking Ocarina of time is very dangerous around these parts ;). I respect your opinion though (despite OoT being the BEST GAME OF ALL TIME).

  • @NilsMcCloud Well, clearly I'd disagree with OoT being the best of all time, but it's all just opinions =P

  • @RayLedgend LTTP IS the best. But It's definitely not the only good Zelda game! hahaha

  • @Redoni Haha, well, I'll admit I haven't played all that much Zelda since I've been disappointed with most of the series, so maybe I'm unqualified in claiming LTTP is the only good one. But it was definitely good, that's for sure =P

  • @RayLedgend You have mental problems sir.

  • @briotera Psychologists say that over 90% of us do =P

  • @RayLedgend And you are in the 90% for sure

  • I always thought the hole Ganon made looked like a rooster. Wasn't very menacing arriving on top of a golden tower being stared down by a rooster hole as a bunny.

  • where does this appear in Twilight Princess?

  • @samfdigital

    ...It doesn't... What made you think it did?

  • @Tezcatlepocatl

    I could have sworn I heard this in TP somewhere lol

  • @samfdigital If you've played super smash bros. brawl its remixed for one of the subspace emissary levels, I forget which one. Also features on the bridg of eldin stage, maybe thats where you heard it.

  • i find it stupid how they changed agahnim's name to gannondorf in the newer games such as ocarina of time, or windwaker and then majoras mask just like destroys the story line who agrees?

  • @grunnymax123 Actually they didnt change agahnim's name. If you pay attention in a link to the past one of the girls tell you that Ganon's real name is Ganondorf...he changed his name after he got the triforce...you really ought to pay more attention...because in ocarina of time wind waker and major's mask agahnim never existed...

  • I think 'Dark World' is a great song. That's when you warp to the Dark World after you defeat Agahnim. You can wander around in the Dark World and defeat some enemies. If you get stucked in the Dark World, you have to use the magic mirror to return to the Light World.

  • It's diddly-dark.

  • 6 people are mainstream kiddies, who don't know what good music sounds like, because Justin Bieber raped their ears.

  • @ardstsp I have a few problems with this comment. First: It is false. Most mainstream kiddies wouldn't even realize this exists. 2: Stop talking about this the dislike bar, especially when that hit isn't funny as in the case of this comment. It's really annoying. C: Stop talking about Justin Bieber. Talking about him, whether negative or positive, will only make him stay in the media. Let's review: Dislike bar comments=spam and hating on Bieber will only make him stronger.

  • @RockingTheFro You're absolutely right !
