[Sebazztion1994]

i miss these old days! i wnat the real banjo-theerie noW!!!

[TheLordDhaos]

The composer of the music of this game also worked on Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning <3 Nostalgia all over when I play that game!

[steven1098s]

Banjo-Kazooie and Viva Pinata are two of the best games ever made :D

[summ22]

brings a tear to my eye

[iontachdalba]

When I was young I was too scared to go into the lair because of this music! literately!

[nirvana38i]

I was soooo young playing thiss. The younger generation back then was the ish.

[poiuy110693]

I LOVED this game when I was small :) Too bad there isn't a game like that anymore. My favourite aspect was the music. Sometimes I play levels just to hear it in the background ^_^ My memories suddenly came back to me and all I've been doing for 10 minutes is looking up the game's tracks! >< So glad they're on here :D

[SanchezMyrick]

Thank you grant Kirkhope, for creating me a wonderful childhood.

[Meimoon123]

@SanchezMyrick i totaly agree i love his music im putting it on my i pod

[Natendo64]

>yourfacewhen this song is the teddy bear's picnic.

[Disinlowid]

That's music composition! Love Banjo!

[tehchosenyoutubr]

LOL.. I remember hearing this theme so many times when I was younger

[IceKicker18]

@TDIAdam7 Wellllll...Hows this? After I had a major orgasm from everything about Banjo Kazooie I grabbed my xbox controller and held down the xbox home button and selected turn off console...going to bed a happy man. Haha.

[DSCAccount]

the nostalgia is just way too overwhelming

[IceKicker18]

I just turned Banjo Kazooie off as a matter of FACT. :)

[TDIAdam7]

@IceKicker18 One does not simply turn off Banjo Kazooie...

[Crushking33]

@TDIAdam7 I see what you did there.

[derhalofanatic]

aw man i loved this game so much..

i want my childhood back o:<

[imTheMrBEAN]

Oh man, these memories! This game was the best in its time!

[nin10doblastiose1996]

6 people are banjo kazooie nuts and bolts fanboys.

[Pacemakerguy14]

who dislikes this?

[jordhuntssolo]

its a classic xDD

[Chattrees]

I want rare back :'c

[BazzBrother]

oh god, literally the Teddy Bear Picnic song

soo fitting

[luulol]

@BazzBrother

that song really exist?

i think i hear it before in open season

[DirtyLarry2185]

@BazzBrother there are a few differences between this and Teddy Bear Picnic. Rare modified Teddy Bear Picnic to make this song, that's why they are so similar

[Flaffen98]

Nostalgic... so much..

[jackstone112]

like my brother said, this theme fits fiddlesticks so much lol.

[Nosidda89]

My gosh, this music was such a huge part of my childhood. LOL

[FuNmAn1996]

this brings back good memories thanks for uploading

[Artillery1551]

weird... it only shows my views

[xx13angelina13xx]

I miss this game. :(

[unterbawr]

love how the game makes u feel so fat when u walk around to this tune XD

[TheRyanpwnns]

This picture is Banjo Tooie :P

[KingdomHeartsFan91]

Grunty: Reh ra ra reh ra reh ra reh ra!

[unterbawr]

@KingdomHeartsFan91 pure genius, how they talk. it matches the music PERFECTLY and its omg so funny!!

[19Vexthehedgehog91]

@KingdomHeartsFan91 Banko: hu huh hu hu hu hu huh hu hu

[KingdomHeartsFan91]

@19Vexthehedgehog91 Kazooie: Rarelralral errralll eerr ra

[TheLadiezman123]

One of the most original games ever made. nuff said..

[Reacted1991]

man i just found out this song is fucking teddy bears at a picnic ah well it's cool

[christiangamer1000]

there are 12 different versions all in the one game

[brownea3]

I hum this to myself all the time

[Smashfaan]

Great graphics, awesome music, best characters, sexual innuendo, perfect controls, fucking hell, this game was the shit. :D

[Nhia89]

Memories flooding my heart and forcing tears out of my eyes.

God i miss this game and my N64

[madkiller566]

@Nhia89 i still have both muahahaha

[Nhia89]

@madkiller566 i hate you

[ZzMattizZ]

R.I.P. Rare 1982 - 2002

[metallicarocks911]

@marioshrooming :D i played rayman, its pretty decent, but i think this game blows it out of the water :P

[yukiplus]

@metallicarocks911 Never again, will gaming as good as this will appear on Planet Earth. Maybe better, but not the same.

[metallicarocks911]

@yukiplus i agree bro!

[jdhadlock]

I literally grew up on this game and it's sequel and, no matter how badly I want it to, Nuts & Bolts just can't measure up to them. I still play these classics every once in a while and, somehow, they're still fun every time. I don't care if that's weird for a 20 year old to be doing or not.

[sbjosepha]

@jdhadlock

Seconded, these are the only games i played to 100% completion. No joke. Every Jinjo. Every stock sound effect is ingrained into my brain for the remainder of my time on earth. I am also 20.

[xRocketzFighterx]

@jdhadlock

Hey! no one is too old to play banjo kazooie

First timeI played this game was in 1999 but I never got a chance to own and beat the original n64 classic untill I got it in 2010 and now I'm half way on the sequal.

It was worth the 10 year wait to buy these games on both n64 and xbla but nuts n bolts was rubbish (graphics n humour n klungo were nice though)

[violetknight936]

@jdhadlock there is nothing wrong or wierd... it just points the fact that games now suck compared to classics like this.

[Dmcconnell1991]

@jdhadlock Not weird at all.. I do the same thing. I don't think I'll ever stop playing these.

[Gameboy3DS]

@jdhadlock

Dude, I feel the same. (I'm 21) XD

Even though I think N&B is an OK game, it's still not as awesome as its N64 originals.

[Reaperonatricycle]

@jdhadlock if you consider yourself a video game nut, thats perfectly normal.

[LanceTheAutobot]

@jdhadlock im 23 annd i still love it annd my mom is 60 annd plays it ase well :D

[controlfreak0fanfan]

@jdhadlock you definitely arent the only one haha

[ravenwitch100]

@jdhadlock good on you mate! That's nothing to be ashamed of.

[Alewolf01]

@jdhadlock I'm the same way but I'm 19, close enough. XD You're not the only one.

[Athaniar]

@jdhadlock "We don't stop playing because we grow old, we grow old because we stop playing"

[1942samurai]

@jdhadlock; Dude, classics will never die, no matter how many times you send letters of dissaproval. Not that you'd want them to.....

[xsoulxofxthexnightx]

@jdhadlock I'm 20 also ;D

I feel the same way!

[calvissuperman]

@jdhadlock I don't think you realize how many other people have the exact same story as you. If my life had a theme song, it would be from this game.

[swampert564]

@jdhadlock That isn't weird at all. they are true masterpieces

[Quietschquatsch]

@jdhadlock Oh, I don't think you are too young with 20(!) years!

[Wonocva15]

@TheProhet110

Nein

[TheProhet110]

I m the first german here

[SHAD0VV100]

Am I the only one who remembered RubberFruit after this music?! XD

[SilverFanatic1]

Banjo. Total proof why Microsoft SUCKS.

[ZzMattizZ]

i was VERY dissapointed with Nuts and Bolts...

i hope Rare fix that...

[Sandithemage]

i played this when i was 13-14...and now im 22 and this music still cant get out of my head...awesome stuff

[CloudTehKitteh]

Hands down one of the best games of all time. Same goes for Bamjo-Tooie. Both those games were fucking incredible. I remember them so well from my childhood that they've left a mark on how i play every other game in the past until now.

[moppey3]

I like kazooies attitude :P

[lannyasuke]

Mi tema !!!! Grunty :DD !!!!

[conchudo12345]

EEE-HE-HE-HE-HE-HE-HEHHH...

[SuperDK28]

am i the only 14 yr old who watched their big brother play this and u remember so vividly???

[PyjamaShark9]

@SuperDK28 oh my god my childhood was spent watching my older sister beat this game. i am almost 18 and it was an integral part of my upbringing.

[Thenumber1yoshi]

You know I read TV tropes all the time and see the "Seinfeld Is Unfunny" part on the YMMV on the Banjo-Kazooie page that said Banjo-Kazooie was only thought to be better than Super Mario 64 back when it was released and that today Mario 64 is still fondly remembered while Banjo-Kazooie suffers from being lumped in with Rare's collectathon platformers, And I couldn't disagree more with the people who think that about this game *2bcont.

[Thenumber1yoshi]

*Continued* And I couldn't disagree more with people who think about this game as being lumped in with Rare's collectathon platformers. Hell I still enjoy Banjo-Kazooie more than Super Mario 64 (not that I hate Mario 64 but I just find Banjo-Kazooie better even if it said on Tropes that Mario 64 is still fondly remembered) so much more freedom and control over what you want to do, and Banjo-Kazooie is the game that defined how I would play games without voice acting by improvising My *2bcont.

[Thenumber1yoshi]

*Continued* and Banjo-Kazooie is the game that defined how I would play games without voice acting by improvising My own voice acting as I played and based how characters would sound based of the noise their text voice made. Anyways I still have to say to the people who just lump Banjo-Kazooie with Rare's collectathon platformers thinking it's not a memorable game because of that, I say screw you people who think that way about this game besides, I still play it on My N64 and *2bcont.*

[Thenumber1yoshi]

*Continued* besides I still play Banjo-Kazooie on My N64 (yes I've kept it since I got it and even though it can have some issues at times it still works and I'm glad to have kept it to this day) more than Mario 64 since I can't remember how many times I've played through Banjo-Kazooie on My N64 while its been years since plopping Mario 64 in there compared to My time still spent playing Banjo-Kazooie on it to this day. *And sorry for the long comment*.

[BanjoPikzooie]

As much as I don't like how Banjo's series was handled by MSOFT and what was left of Rareware. I love the HD remakes. Even if they Nintendo censor everything out. I dont think with the big N, we'd have an HD Banjo so quickly >:D

[zachwaters112]

why did microsoft have to ruin a good game like banjo kazooie and conkers bad fur day with banjo kazooie nuts and bolts and conker live and reloaded

[BassMakerBR]

iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiihihih­ihiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

[BassMakerBR]

IT ISN'T RAREWARE'S FALL. IT'S MICROSOFT'S FALL, THAT BUYED IT AND RUINED WITH ALL HIS GAMES!!!!!!

[davem1992ftw]

Rare you piece of shit, sell Banjo back to Nintendo and stay the hell away. You've ruined him and Conker enough already.

Banjo on 3DS!!!!

[kohrak123]

@davem1992ftw Blame Microsoft and the Xbox developers. Its business, not Rare's fault :(

[davem1992ftw]

@kohrak123 yes but Rare are the ones who develop the new games. I gave Rare loads of chances after the Xbox merge. I somewhat likes GBTG and Kameo, but apart from that Rare has released nothing but shit ESPECIALLY Nuts And Bolts (worst game I've ever played)

[olimarfunk]

EEEEEEEEHEEEEEEEEEHEEEEEEEEEHE­EEEE...wait, sorry guys...

[swampert564]

sometimes i turn on this game and just walk around the lair listening to all the different themes

[metallicarocks911]

prob one of the best or THE best platformer ive ever played in my lifetime... im 17 almost 18, i still love this fucking game haha

[beatsalgado]

@metallicarocks911 i'm 18 and still try to bear gruntilda D: xD

[metallicarocks911]

@beatsalgado haha sames :P

[BeggProductions]

@metallicarocks911 I'll be 18 in August. Still love this game and Tooie to death!

[metallicarocks911]

@BeggProductions i will be in april :D

[sonyman344]

@metallicarocks911 I'm going to use this theme, and play it outside my house next halloween, with large speakers :D

[metallicarocks911]

@sonyman344 perfect! ;D

[afatlemur2010]

@metallicarocks911 true waaaaaaaaaaaaay better than mario cant say the same about Nuts&Bolts though

[NintendoMasterG]

@metallicarocks911 Hey, I'm 19 and feel the exact same way! Good to have some cool gamers like you out there. :)

[metallicarocks911]

@NintendoMasterG thanks bro! i hate that microsoft owns the franchise now :(

[taiamon]

best game ever

[secretagentclank123]

Banjo and Kazooie should be a character in the next Super Smash Bros game.

[siccooper]

@secretagentclank123 BEST IDEA EVER.

[zapcatzach]

@secretagentclank123 won't happen. rare sold out to microsoft. DAMN YOU RARE. yep, that's right, i blame rare. not microsoft.

[ThePadfam]

i loved this game to death but i dont think they should remake it personally i think it should stay with its old glory

[wheredarknessislight]

@ThePadfam maybe not remake.. I like that they brought it to the Xbox live arcade. Spent 2-3 weeks just messing around on it.

Took me back to my childhood.. 

[CGamer64]

I swear, someone make a pention to make this game remade for the WIIU!!!

[S3bish]

Tip: Xbox live arcade

[afatlemur2010]

wow i acually prefer thins to conker windy strange since im such a huge conker fan

[Ulltangen]

Most epic song on the game?

Fucking hard to say, all of them are epic...

[SmokinGun95]

I you are jelly I

[MONOPOLY35]

Video game music is awesome and underrated!

[Bunneh8]

I was always thinking about how Grunty's at the top of the tower Banjo's at the bottom and yet you can still hear Grunty and hear ridoncleous rhymes (yes I say ridoncleous)

[leftymu]

If you go down in the woods today, you're sure of a big surprise, for there you'll find a fat little bear with yellow shorts and a backpack! (I think that fits the song)

[Ramonajunie3]

this reminds me of eating my grandma's popcorn. thats some good popcorn.

[AustraliaForTheWin]

@Ramonajunie3 Cool story bro, needs more kazooie

[Ramonajunie3]

@AustraliaForTheWin this reminds me of eating kazooie's popcorn. that's some good popcorn.

[ObjectiveKill]

dubstep remix in the works?! mmm ephixa

[redcapedjoker]

Man I loved this game! But they shouldn't make a sequel simply cause the original was great they'll just mar it. Anyways one of best N64 games along with Ocarina of Time, Conker's Bad Fur Day, Golden Eye and Mario 64.

[MyJr29]

@redcapedjoker you have good taste and basically just summed up my childhood. XD

[MaxManMedia]

@MyJr29 Same here! :D

[llSM12ll]

Rare should make their own console with awesome games.

[pressstart66]

oh grunty and your rhymes

[Pichufreak100]

To me the only sensable game company left is nintendo cause they don't rely on teens and shooting or blood &gore.

[Nidoslin]

@Pichufreak100 I disagree, they have just been doing the same few games over and over since the ninetees :P

[Pichufreak100]

@Nidoslin yes thats true but at least most of them are related to shooting/ blood and gore like call of duty,halo,dead rising, resident evil u propably get my point but if thats the way u feel i'm okay with that since I dont know who u is.

[Nidoslin]

@Pichufreak100 Yeah im not looking for a fight, i just disagree with the nintendo part. More cred should go to smaller corporations then, indiemakers and so on, not nintendo. I can agree with the rest, even though some of these games are awesome ;)

[Pichufreak100]

@Nidoslin yeah i hate when people fight on youtube also especially when they dont know each other its there opinion i just dont see the fun in those games i can play them but not for long but i have friends that agree and disagree with me and i cant change that no one can.

[Nidoslin]

@Pichufreak100 Nah man, but good ideas on internet arguments, more people shuld be like you ;)

And still we both love awesome music (the video) so i dont mind! I was just going to sleep but have an awesome day/night/life/whatever man, best of wishes with all :D

Hahaha awesome conversation :)

[giantshadow17]

the best songs in videogames play the same thing over and over again and switch instruments and rearrange the tune a bit. games nowadays dont even have music.

[nawaf10soccer]

@giantshadow17 Agreed with you! Why can't there be Epic games like these in these days! :(

[mastershogun9]

he he he he he heeeeeee i love this song one of my fave

[64supermarioreturns]

Banjo-Threeie was supposed to be on Gamecube, I was so pissed by Microsoft when I figured out that I could've played the third one almost 8 years ago :/

[Breylahk]

@64supermarioreturns microsoft sucks face!

this was the greatest series around until they took the "ware" out of "rareware"

[64supermarioreturns]

@Breylahk I kind of hope some company that cares about BK will buy them from Microsoft, I can only dream right -_-

[KayKupcake777]

@LEONIAPOTTER96310 im not sure thats a tuba...it sounds more like a bass saxophone....lol I was listening to it trying to figure out the different instruments...ik theres a marimba, bass sax, sounds like a bassoon, and a xylophone too...and possibly a guitar of some sorts....would love to get a group together and learn this!! i think it would be a fun arrangement!!

[phily4life]

i didn't know the laugh at the start was part of the music. I always thought that was Grunty laughing in the gameplay

[imaginaruis]

That's certainly a remake on Henry Hall's Teddy Bear's Picnic. Not that I don't like it. Sounds quite nice for a game OST. :-)

[davem1992ftw]

-sniff- my fav game ever made

[Kstylero7]

i like this song when it changes of state.

[SOURCEw00t]

Someone needs to remix this song with all the different types of instruments that played it depending where you were located at in Gruntilda's lair.

[PieLover425]

i think this song baiscly sums up my childhood

[seekeroftruth111]

dont know why but i remember being creeped out by this music as a kid lol

[x0xchaozdiamond19]

I demand this game be on 3DS!!!

[ricarditooooful]

@x0xchaozdiamond19 Rare...well you know Rare...(I can't say it) RARE WENT WITH MICROSOFT!! OH THE HORROR!!!! >:(((

[x0xchaozdiamond19]

@ricarditooooful T^T

[Gwright9000]

@x0xchaozdiamond19 fucking Microsoft right?

[zapcatzach]

@Gwright9000 nope. they actually have the right to Banjo on Handhelds. In fact, it has been speculated that Banjo May in fact be coming to 3ds. =D

[TheWaluigiking]

@zapcatzach you are correct

[StickyTV96]

@x0xchaozdiamond19 The game will never ever be on 3DS (although I´d wish that too). Nintendo sold the whole Rare company to Microsoft (BAD IDEA!!!), and since then, no Rare game came out on a Nintendo console. If not, Banjo Kazooie would have also been on the wii shop channel, but it wasn´t. Sad, how big named companies can ruin something as epic as Rare. Remember, Microsoft also demanded Rare to stop working on a Conker sequel and develop a remake on the first xbox instead.
