I didn't know someone could make Chocolate Rain worse than it already was, but I'll be damned if they didn't.

This is awesome.

It's a geek event horizon. Don't look directly at the page.

Thats the best Rick Roll video other than Beaker singing it.

It's reaching the point where by getting worse and worse its really getting better and better. You just don't want to admit it. It's ok, neither did I. Until I started drinking heavily

I'm loving I Get Around

I thought I was pretty clever when I made Tetris on MP once... damn.

I give far more props to the people who do it on actual mario paint and not a windows version =P

Because the windows version is so much easier to make songs with being that it's only advantages are that you have more control on the song length and tempo?

does the word chords mean anything to you

 
zephyrkate 2008-05-04 04:41:16 AM  
Yep, the chords are more complex (you can only have three notes in a MP chord). Let's also try changing the key signature; with Mario Paint, you're stuck in C major. I saw Zelda, and wondered how that was possible because the Zelda theme is obviously not C major: question answered, they got to cheat a little.

I've tried transposing some songs into C and then into Mario, but I don't have the patience. So, maybe I'll have to give the Windows version a try just to see if anything will translate directly.

This. I came here to see Mario Paint songs, not songs done with Mario Paint's sounds.

those were pretty cool

I love how the one guy whose mp music was featured is calling the other people's work crap in the comments section

Best use of the "This video is no longer available" that I've seen all day

/every single one of 'em

That's weird; I had no problem with it.

 
JonZoidberg 2008-05-04 09:53:36 AM  
I did U2's "With or Without You" way back in the day, 7th grade. My friends and I had a competition going to see who could make the dirtiest animations too.

Good times.

 
Maneck 2008-05-04 09:54:34 AM  
Came across these a while back. Even though they're (mostly) done on an emulated version that adds the handy musical feature of sharps and flats (the lack of which makes Mario Composer really silly) it's impressive. Download the emulator and give it a try. It's still a huge pain in the ass to use.

This blog misses the best one that I've seen, Linkin Park's What I've Done (new window, not a Rick Roll or a Mario Paint Rick Roll). I'm not Linin Park fan (actually, I pretty much hated them for a good while) but I thought this was amazing. Definetly worth the click anyway.

 
Maneck 2008-05-04 09:57:54 AM  
Oh, should have added the Mighty Morphing Power Rangers (new window) theme as well. Absolutely superb. This blog missed a lot of the good ones.

While this list has some great choices, it ultimately fails for the lack of Castlevania.


/Fire Fox spell checker thinks Castlevania should be spelled Pennsylvania. lol

^Halo theme in composer^ starts off slow, is a biatchoppy, but otherwise well done.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Lo6uXwi4M0

^Still Alive from Portal^ well done. should've gotten honorable mention.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vTMp8iepyb0

^Take On Me by Ah-Ha^ couldn't stop laughing. it is well made, which made me laugh harder.

and the Mute City theme from F-Zero.

 
austerity101 2008-05-04 01:03:32 PM  
What, no SMB2? One of the best themes ever.

That explains a lot about Philadelphia.

This is why Mario Paint is the best artistic program of all time.

You must be a blast at parties.

The Rickroll one is awesome IMO

"I Get Around" is incredibly done.

This one even comes with lyrics! (NARR)

Nintendo needs to put this game on the Virtual Console. The ability to share one's creations over the intertubes was the only thing missing from the original game (understandable, as the web itself hadn't been invented yet).

 
NYIslander 2008-05-04 06:53:39 PM  
Link (new window)

program that can do this (shown in Journey and Queen videos)

Is there a Mario Paint refill for Reason?

I play several, and I think this is so awesome. Don't be such a fartiepants.

 
Third Day Mark 2008-05-04 11:29:00 PM  
I don't see how they can get more awesome than the Mike Tyson Punch Out theme.

/Never would've thought to do anything like this with Mario Paint, I just used to select the cheetah print background and paint-fill the background in with brown so it looked like a giant nestle crunch bar.

 
Third Day Mark 2008-05-04 11:47:10 PM  
The Dragonforce one is amazing. This guy seriously deserves some kind of award or recognition.

 
Another Hole in Your Head 2008-05-05 12:07:04 AM  
While the Zelda theme on the site is classic, this one is pretty rad.

It is common in Guitar Hero threads for some jackasses to make the very comment that CommiePuddin made.

I have to say, the Nightwish one was pretty good too. (new window)

The rest, some were really much better then the others.

"Look at me, I'm special, I can copy the opening riff of a song from a midi into Mario Paint!"

 
Kodiak Attack 2008-05-05 01:11:02 PM  
magical_mystery_meat: Is there a Mario Paint refill for Reason?

THIS. I'd love to work with those sounds in an interface I'm more familiar with. Although, I learned how to use MODPlug recently, so I could probably learn this too. Sometimes working within the restrictions of a program can be pretty rewarding, especially when you come up with something good.

Some of these are pretty awesome.

 
bergles 2008-05-06 07:40:00 PM  
rock on... I used to just play that smiley face "orgasm noise" as low as I could. Too bad I can't find the mouse anymore...
