Ducktales - The Moon (Genesis Version)

[BrainRotMenacer]

The intro was changed to 4/4. Lame.

[DarrylChang]

I regret destroying my Gameboy Color.

[riKringkast]

bibaboob-de-bloopeebloop-bloop­....Duuuun-duh-duh-duuuun-duuu­un

Fuck, I miss the 80's and 90's!

[alex199854]

@riKringkast du du du du duu duuuh duuuuhh duuuuuh du DUUUUUUUUUUUH

[kleyver666]

sniff...

i love this fucking song!!!

[coffee4binky]

Never hit me that this song is an early example of techno. In an NES game. Would love to hear a Fatboy Slim remix.

[alex199854]

this song is not overrated u retard

[troysson81]

@alex199854:

*sniff sniff*

Anyone else smell the butthurt here?

[Ybrethar]

Of course you wouldn't understand, you're 17 years old. People love this song because of nostalgia, we grew up playing this stuff.

[troysson81]

@Ybrethar:

I guess. :/

Now that I have VOPM, I can do a much better version of this.

[EdgeZombie]

@Ybrethar Hey hey hey, I'm 17. We were always behind on the consoles, so while everyone else was on PS1 I was still prancing about on the Moon.

[921144666]

This should of been E. Honda's theme...

[cincinatus90]

this guy is butthurt because we love this song.

[troysson81]

@cincinatus90:

Dude, it's nto that good. That's what I think. Deal with it.

[cincinatus90]

@troysson81 I dealt with it. You are butthurt. Relax.

[troysson81]

@cincinatus90:

If you found people basically fapping to a song you thought wasn't that good, you'd be pretty annoyed.

[DTMTroy]

@troysson81 you sir are simply not my son......

[troysson81]

@DTMTroy:

Of course not, I've seen my dad.

[neuksd]

They told told me I could become anything I wanted.

So I became the moon.

[MarkOates2]

Well... obviously the NES version is waaaaayyyy better. Still the best song, though.

[TheWoWisok]

i think it sounds ok

[mazda649]

This is one of the most famous video game songs ever!!!

[UndertakerU2ber]

the beat is catchy

[MDthornton83]

Nice job.

[MrGiratinaORIGINAL]

- Never played the game

- Instant reminding of my childhood.

[elletSetteSellaDomoU]

This page is full of touchy and capslock princesses--

Grow up

[rickster397]

8-bit is better but this is good :)

[nawgonog]

hmmm... I think I prefer the NES version. Still awesome though!

[dudusmajorus]

know what else is overrated? your face.

[badassundergroundLP]

This song is freakin' Messiah.

[nastybeard]

awesome

[NOWhammies91983]

8-bit version is better.

[easternhero255]

Hearing this song make me wish I played this game.

[DartUchiha]

makes me think of Phantasy Star 2.

[leerey14]

now do a post hardcore version of this. Queer.

[MeroliZ2]

DON'T YOU FUCKING TALK BAD ABOUT THIS SONG I SWEAR I WILL CUT YOU

jk, though it is a good song. As JFK once said, "we will go to the moon."

[GrSoul0]

This song is the second coming. It will be played on 12/21/12 when the world ends.

And we will all go to the moon.

[SirHomsar]

If I go to heaven, I want this song to play on the stairway.

[mastermantrox]

lol 8bit is better.

[DJFLDJFL]

@mastermantrox WAY better...and thats just sad.

[sgthometar]

NES sounds better

[t0xx0t]

This beats hell out of the original, yes, I agree people give this song too much attention, but there's no denying that it's an amazing composition. Just gotta accept society how it is. Great job! Is there an MP3 or VGZ file I could get?

[JeffMkII]

As a whole it's not better than the NES version, but :37 and 1:12 are superior and really well done.

[troysson81]

WELL EXCUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSE ME, PRINCESS.

[elletSetteSellaDomoU]

@troysson81 ._. did you made this? why so mad?

[troysson81]

I'm just rebutting your Caps Lock rage with my own. What of it?

[elletSetteSellaDomoU]

@troysson81 it is not internet without mad4caps people lol.. u are not alone in weird town

[Underwood1416]

@elletSetteSellaDomoU make*

[I0LOVE0AMY0ROSE]

@elletSetteSellaDomoU F#$% YOU TROLL

[NutQaze]

@troysson81 HHAHA :D that one you won man !

haha quoting link :D

[GatlingPunchRalf]

@troysson81 This Link is not welcome in anything LoZ related. Even so, I love the reference.

[shiznition]

@GatlingPunchRalf implying ducktales is related to legend of zelda >.>

[I0LOVE0AMY0ROSE]

@troysson81 LOL

[seyyoshi]

@elletSetteSellaDomoU U mad?

[danusty]

I like the nes version more

[danusty]

I like the nes version more

[Antipathie]

Wait...this game celebrated a release on a sega console? Why doesn't Wikipedia list that version?

[YotaMoteuchi]

what he doesnt realize is why ppl praise it so much. not only because its good, but for its time it was impressive due to the limited tech.

[troysson81]

Keywords: "for it's time"

And VRC7 sounds much more impressive than the Moon ever did, even by today's standards.

[ValericClandon]

@troysson81 Eh. To quote something ImmortalMage and Jenni20 regularly say:

'Our opinions may differ.'

[troysson81]

I don't know who either of those people are, but whatever.

[ValericClandon]

@troysson81 Never expected you to. Search them up though if you're into Orchestration music and the like. You'll be impressed at some of it.

[mully2point0]

it IS the messiah you ass! lol

[FaithlessMr]

*Praises song like it's the freakin' Messiah*

[crapperstick]

wow thats actually good. thanks.

[TimeRazor]

Sparkster went to the moon to find Scrooge McDuck and bring him home cause he went crazy. xD

[LuciusLeonard]

The meaning of Life is this Song

[LuciusLeonard]

(and Chuck Norris' Beard)

[WildWolfG]

THIS SONG will save the universe from TAKING AN ARROW TO THE KNEE (and receiving OVER 9000 damage) from CHUCK NORRIS (and 11 other people) in 2012.

...the god damn MAYANS know what the fuck's up.

LIKE THIS SONG TO HELP SAVE THE UNIVERSE!!!

TOGETHER, we shall bring an END to CHUCK and his 11 disciples!!!!1

[troysson81]

Please tell me you're joking.

[WildWolfG]

@troysson81 Nah man... The Mayans predict that when all the planets in our solar system align perfectly with CHUCK NORRIS in 2012... SHIT WILL GO DOWN!!! And why SHOULDN'T we listen to the Mayans..? Their little ROCK CALENDAR is PURE SCIENCE, bro!! SCIENCE, I TELL YOU!! And you know how we're gonna stop it all? ...By liking this song!! Then SAILOR MOON will appear and put a stop to those DIRTY, STINKY MAYANS ONCE AND FOR ALL!! MOON POWERRS... ACTIVAAATEE!!! *gay sailor moon pose*

[troysson81]

@WildWolfG:

...*facepalm*

First of all, the Mayans stopped updating the calendar cause they couldn't be bothered.

Second, everything else is irrelevant.

[WildWolfG]

@troysson81

I included in all that other random crap because I take it just as seriously as I do the Mayans (as we all should). ^_^

I don't get why people are making such a big deal about 2012.

Just goes to show how retarded our species is... collectively, anyway. *_*

But my side-point is this:

This song is pretty badass! Love that classic Genesis bass!

Not my FAVORITE SONG IN THE UNIVERSE, but it's good nonetheless...! ^.^b

Thank you for uploading it, sir..!

*gay anime high five*

[FMRagna]

@troysson81 'Sounds like someone forgot their sense of humor this morning.

[troysson81]

I have a sense of humor. It's just when something's not funny, it's not funny.

[bummer6]

@troysson81 It was kinda obvious he was joking though, and you did take it way too seriously. You should lighten up. :P

[troysson81]

@bummer6:

I like jokes when they're funny.

[KirbyY15]

man this song is EPIC!!!

i don't know, i think it's pretty darn epic. not to overrate it, sry if i do but in that moment now i can't really think of a more epic song

[DanRSL]

Eh rather than this song being overrated this just continues to prove how 99% of Genesis audio is garbage.

[troysson81]

Listen to Streets of Rage, the main Genesis Sonic titles, and Castlevania Bloodlines and tell me that Genesis audio is "garbage".

The song is NOT. THAT. GOOD.

[DanRSL]

@troysson81

You just proved my point. That's the 1% of Genesis non-fail.

Also I didn't say anything about how good the Moon theme itself is. Regardless, its awesome.

[Neinteen91]

I thought this was going to be a piece of shit like most Genesis songs. Surprisingly it's pretty good.

[AxleCarp]

Genesis games had the best fucking drum sounds ever.

[xChrisBoulterx]

One would think this song is overrated when using a genesis sound chip to arrange it.

[MetastasisVideos]

Duck Tales/Moon Theme 2012 and 2016!

[TheIdomann]

I CAN HAZ MOON DUST?

[Windclaw]

WE LIKE THE MOON!

[NutQaze]

One of the NES intros/music that will always be there in that special place in your brain. It will never go away. Truly one of the greatest scores for a videogame.

Well the original atleast :) although this one was pretty awesome

[caelinnis]

>not worshipping this song as our one true lord and savior

>2011

ISHYDDTY

[suineg1]

Let's hunt some treasures. ON THE MOON ! ^_^

[ClassicTVMan1981X]

I wonder if the following other tunes from the 8-bit DuckTales legacy could be done 16-bit style (Yamaha FM chip) as done here?

*Amazon (Jungle)

*Transylvania (Ghost House)

*African Mines (Underground)

*Himalayas (Snow Mountain)

[Colinrose777]

Cool, and It has much potential to be expanded into a "real" song that includes something other than the same passages over and over.

[aquelescaraaaaaaaaaa]

what does IMO means? :(

[troysson81]

@aquelescaraaaaaaaaaa:

In

My

Opinion

[jackiecrane57]

@aquelescaraaaaaaaaaa i can't tell if that was sarcasm or not, but, if you are serious, it means: "in my opinion"

[capnbarfy]

@troysson81 I am so glad I'm not the only one who thinks this song is overrated... o_O

*awaits to be stoned*

[troysson81]

Don't worry. If we shall be stoned, we shall be stoned together.

So which one of us is gonna get the bong?

[Noke0]

@capnbarfy You are not the only one, the Ducktales Theme and 100000's of other video game music surpass this song.

[lpfan9976]

This oughta be the ending credits theme

It’s a soaring song flying high like a dream

But it was used as a level tune, underscoring the life of a retarded mallard

On the fuckin' moon!

[KuriousJoe1]

This song is futuristic, when considered in the NES music context. I don't know, maybe it's the "space themed" interface used in the song, or something else maybe, I don't know? :D But then again most of these songs would make some really super mint remixes

[nintenbomb]

i mean my years from 4-7

[nintenbomb]

reminds me of my youth love dis song

[NanayaRay01]

crazy duck in space?

[justplainruk]

If I didn't know this piece of music so well, I'd guess it was something from Tinhead. Neat version!

[Sephirothe1988]

NES VERSION IS THE BEST LOL SEGAFAGS

[SonicVSJasonGriffith]

@Sephirothe1988

SEGA DOES WHAT NINTENDON'T SHITFACE

[Standard420247]

@SonicVSJasonGriffith You're right. Sega don't got no system anymore, Ninten- DO! XD

[SonicVSJasonGriffith]

@Standard420247

*high fives*

[Standard420247]

@SonicVSJasonGriffith That high five is accepted, but kinda makes no sense XD

[ShadowBlade405]

CRAZY HEDGEHOG IN SPACE

[ShadowBlade405]

so much for 16-bit sounds like 32-bit

[Rafalgahr]

I really like the bass line on this remix, it rocks a lot, good job.

[Blox5320]

I'm assured Brentalfloss would love this...

[superkeijikun]

CRAZY! HOG IN SPACE!

[SirMcFiggles]

NES version is better.

[leviwellsysback]

ParagonNG's version is better.

[Ui2019]

This song will save the universe, come 2012. Just. You. Wait.

[troysson81]

Assuming it even happens.

[skipplet]

@troysson81 If it doesn't happen, it's because this song prevented the world from being destroyed.

[troysson81]

If you choose to believe that.

[SpyGuysX]

@troysson81 what a killjoy

[SpyGuysX]

@troysson81 what a killjoy

[troysson81]

You know it.

[Standard420247]

@troysson81 "praise it like it's the freakin' Messiah" Hmm...

Maybe its not the way you think. I mean you seem to be on the "hate" side of a song for no reason. People really Love this song, me included. When ever I am in a totally shit mood If I hear this song I can immediately crack a smile and nod my head and just think back to being a child.

Which makes me wonder why you hate it, I'm going to ask your age, and it's not meant to be an insult or anything. Just a question.

[MindMoose]

@troysson81 Oh snap.



[OptimusPrimeX]

@SpyGuysX what he meant was.. it wont happen because this song saved the Universe ^_-

[LelouchOfBritannia]

@SpyGuysX I bet Scrooge is on Nibiru battling the aliens right now and stealing all their treasure.

[rakuencallisto]

@skipplet You my friend are a genius.

[violetfire]

@skipplet 2012 is not about destruction. Lay off the Hollywood mindset for a while, okay? :)

[JPMD64]

@skipplet It will also prevent the internet to collapse because of the SOPA bill.

[earlmccormick88]

@Ui2019 well I hope you know how to play an Instrument. We will all need to play it at the same time across the world. I'm playing it on Trombone

[CrazedNinja]

@Ui2019 OUENDAAAAAAAN!

[Triumverent]

@Ui2019  That's funny right thar! I don't care who you tell. (^_^)

[9999necron]

something is wrong with me this song is like crack i cant get enough of it D:

[zerosan1]

this is the best bgm of that adventure!!!

[minecraftman08]

ah crap, i accidentally typed in fucktales: the moon

[MSgtjube]

Have anyone got the mod-file (.xm or something) for this song?

[RedRanger2001]

You should've done the Genesis cover of the other four stages of DuckTales!

[officialmashitup]

NOTHING can top the original, but this was a GREAT effort

[JamesS92692]

I agree.

I mean, I like this song, but to me, NOTHING will top the songs from "ToeJam and Earl"

[jacksprat1990]

@JamesS92692 Streets of Rage

[JamesS92692]

@jacksprat1990 Nope.

[troysson81]

This jacksprat guy has a point.

Then again, I'm not into T&E.

[SOUTHWESTENZ]

it would work in sonic

[scottievand]

This rendition of the song IS the "freakin' Messiah"!!

[Melink03]

This isn't the best song...

We all know the best song is MegaMan 2 Title theme.

[troysson81]

@Melink03:

There are a few Megaman songs I prefer to this, actually.

[rakuencallisto]

@troysson81 He's right though. The Megaman 2 title theme is better. Simply because it's Wily's theme. Also, this song is 10000x better on the NES.

[SonicSlicer]

@troysson81 are we talking in general? or Megaman 2 specifically?

[troysson81]

@SonicSlicer;

Generally I guess.

Chai Kingdom from Super Mario Land is probably my favorite 8-bit tune, though.

[SonicSlicer]

@troysson81 my favorite 8-Bit tune is "Burning Heat" from Gradius 2

[Metaknightkirby2]

@Melink03 If you choose a soundtrack from a MM - Bubbleman or Snakeman, not the title theme :p

Actually, this mix is pretty cool too:D

[lewis128]

We get it that you think it's overrated. Also to some people it will be the best 8-Bit song. Not to me, not to you. But it's called opinion for a reason right?

[troysson81]

Tell that to the people saying "no ur wrong dis song is epic".

[milkmanv1]

@troysson81 no ur wrong dis song is epic

[troysson81]

...ally overrated. :)

[Melink03]

This would be epic in MegaMan Wily Wars.

[TheSpark717]

what program did you use to make this?

[troysson81]

A soundfont.

[Melink03]

@troysson81 Seems like MegaMan Wily Wars...

[Iwantacookie666]

it is the Messiah

[troysson81]

@Iwantacookie666:

it is not the Messiah

[Iwantacookie666]

@troysson81

ask everyone else that

[troysson81]

They'd agree with you. Hence why I call the song overrated.

[cashcleaner]

@troysson81

And why the rest of us would say you are wrong.

[troysson81]

Further proving my point. ***caps warning***

THIS IS NOT THE BEST F**KING 8-BIT SONG EVER MADE.

It's good, but... It's JUST good.

[crapheadandidiot]

@troysson81 While it's not the best song ever IMO, it is still a great song. In my honest opinion, best video game song will always go to the Main Tunnel theme in Metroid II. That was the first song I'd ever heard come from a game's speakers.

[troysson81]

I never said the song was bad, but people treat it like the Second Coming, and it gets my goat..

[Melink03]

@troysson81 *steals goat*
