Just thought you should know.
I've listened to this glorious music dozens of times, and it's high time I write a review of it.
I am a lifelong Mario fan. My first video game ever was Super Mario World and ever since my imagination has been captured. To this day I consider Super Mario World one of the best games I ever played, and I still play it on a regular basis.
This piece could not possibly be more respectful and more nurturing of its source material. I cannot tell you how grateful I am that you took a chance and placed your stamp on a classic video game piece. It extracts everything that made the original so good and puts it through an amplifier, making it utterly fantastic.
I get depressed when I sift through the Audio Portal and am unable to come away impressed with the music I find, especially when I see reviews which are glowing, yet undeservedly so. Then I remember this piece. I am fully comfortable saying that is is one of the best songs on Newgrounds and one of the best video game remakes I ever heard. You make the Mario fan inside me giddy.
