I think it's just a coincidence but I could be wrong.

Hey look everyone! There's 15 seconds in this 5 minute song that kinda almost sorta sound like the world 1-2 music, kinda almost!

I always thught the music sounded really old school! I would have guessed from the 20's or 30's timeframe.

Listen to some of the music from that era, and you may see what I mean.

I'm pretty sure the Mario theme was written by Christina Aguilera.

Everyone is inspired by something. Even Rob Hubbard rarely wrote music that wasn't referencing some other music, and that's the god of 8bit sound I'm talking about.

4 - What?
Yeah it's kind of similar, but it's such a small grab that I doubt that it's any more than a coincidence, there are only so many notes.

4.1 - WHAT?!
This is the most ridiculous assertion I've read in years. It's only VAGUELY similar - you grab a whole video and point 10 seconds where the music variation is only loosely similar to that of a certain part of a music from the 1-2 level in Super Mario Bros: and already you think you've got an article worth publishing?

You don't know a thing about music, do you?

This is so old it's not even funny. And I mean the news not the video. It doesn't even sound like the mario music. Look at this link to see where mario music was really nicked from

6 - Weak...
Vaguely similar, more idea similar than notes similar, and it's ten seconds out of the video. Even then, saying "Mario Music" in general is from the 40's is misleading, as this would apply to one song, not all of them. I am not amused.

Wow not even close, not even similar chord progression. Lol wtf so every time a song plays in the lower octaves of a piano its all of a sudden Mario?

People who don't have a clue about music, shouldn't act like they do.

The author clearly has no ear whatsoever - in the first example the intervals are in no way similar to what he's claiming. Moron.

11 - Lame!
That tiny piano jingle is obviously just a coincidence.

I was expected something that would blow my mind, not two tiny piano parts that sound like World 1-2 (just the beginning)

Big deal, waste of time and I am sorry, but I am reporting this as lame as it just is, regardless of the site it is from.

I admit that wasn't a good comparison, but that was a great scene from a great movie!
