Bubsy SNES version full game (river pt 1/3)

This is a full game of the SNES version of my most played game, the original Bubsy. I was so eager to play it for the game's audio, but also to see what differences there were between it and the more familiar Genesis version. This is the first take and I only allowed one take so I can accurately relive the experience. The river world is another one of my favorites. The background scenery is beautiful and has often inspired me. Taking the cake (and a bonus cake), however, is this world's music. 1 to 1.3 million plays. That's right, at least a million plays (and counting while I type this description)! That's how many times I've listened to this song (the Genesis version) in the now 15 years I've had it (since 1994). I frequently keep returning to it, and you can see this in my blog. Despite a complex-sounding song, I memorize the Genesis version 100%. The song, of which I call "Out Where the Lake Is" (as I originally thought the water was a lake, not a river), has the longest intro that I'm aware of. Part 3 of the intro has the best part of it fainter. Parts 1 and 2 of the main loop (the first 16 measures) are completely different, but 3 and 4 are basically the same. This song is the best in the game for both the Genesis and SNES versions. However, after 2 normal loops (81 measures in), there's an odd part that doesn't belong, as if the song was unfinished or the game has a bug with looping it properly.

Are you serious about the 1,000,000 plays thing, or was that just hyperbole?

[ulillillia]

It's a short song and, back then, it was about the only thing I really had. I constantly did speed change experiments with the Talkboy tape recorder on it.

in your opinion, is it ok to be gay?

[ulillillia]

I'm neutral on that subject - no response.

This song will play over the credits in the movie about Ulillillia.

Huh? This game's credits screen does not use this music. This version of the song is not played in any of my other videos.

Como se llama la cancion de fondo?, la puedo conseguir?, siempre que recuerdo mis años de videogamer recuerdo mucho esta cancion.

ulillillia, I just think you're really awesome. That's all.

[ulillillia]

Numerous reasons: it's cheerful, it's peaceful, it's active, it's liked all the way through, it has a very wide range of good-sounding speeds (from 45 to 90% for the good zone, 68 to 78% for the best), I've had it for 15 years (the Genesis version which sounds slightly better), and level 11 is my second favorite level (and second-most-played (8 is top favorite)). If you notice it in the daily entries on my blog, you'll see that I return to this song more often than any other song.

Why have you listened to this song so many times? What does this song do for you?
