Game Songs you heard somewhere else....
Ever heard a piece of game music being used elsewhere?
Like for example, Crazy Mouse on the XBOX 360 arcade. If you d/l the trial game, go to single player battle, and select the jungle level, it plays what is basically a remix of a (fairly) well known tune. It's literally almost beat for beat a straight remix. A tune from a certain game staring a certain plumber...... |
Lechuck's theme being used for the Kohl's Commercial... lol
But also The Warp whistle from Super mario bros 3 sounds like the intro to Ocarina of time there's another one from the same two games but I can't think of it now. |
I swear one time in college I heard Skies of Arcadia - Yafutoma Dawn playing on a radio in the weight room. Of course there was zero reasons why this would occur, and it's probably not true (maybe it was some generic asian music), but it sticks out in my mind.

I remember to hear that lullaby of Pan's labyrinth in the end of Rule of Roses. I found it quite sad ;_;
|
A part of Town Mission 4 from Sonic 06 sounds very similar to
Edit: My bad, I meant Flash Man's stage. |
At the 2008 Olympics there was a song from SimCity 4 being played in the background during one of the men's finals in gymnastics. Also Myst 3 music at the women's syncronized swimming event.

I disagree but refuse to engage in a further debate on the matter. In other news, Mall Cop was worth seeing.

The Staind song Fade uses what sounds really close to the Zelda 2 intro:
Fade - Staind Zelda II intro Also, Ken's theme from Street Fighter 2 sounds like Cheap Trick's Mighty Wings (or at least the opening riff): Cheap Trick - Mighty Wings Ken's Theme I know there's more, but those are the only two I can think of at the moment. |
Various parts of Metallica's Master of Puppets sound an awful lot like the first level of Doom.
Don't know how to embed youtube videos, so here's the link. YouTube - Metallica-Master of Puppets Studio version |
'fraid you got that in reverse. It's a pretty well-known fact that a lot of Doom's music is based on popular metal.

Ok well I was christmas shopping last year, in Portsmouth City Centre when I realised I recognised the Musak coming out of the tannoy in the street, it was the instrumental version of Aeris's Theme played on Piano, and after working this out, it started to snow... so cool.
Oh and later that same day, the Christmas Theme from Sega NiGHTs was playing too, I nearly had a nerd-gasm when it started! |
The BBC seem to be going nuts for the Littlebigplanet soundtrack. It's been in a few James May one-offs, it's been on ads for their material, it's been fucking EVERYWHERE recently. Think I even heard it on Panorama once.
Also, there's a Yakult ad that should sound familiar to anyone who's played Gears of War:
