Seriously, if you don't recognize this tune, where the heck have you been all this 25 years?

Today's track is Overworld from Super Mario Bros.

Please note due to copyright issues I can not make this song available for you to download directly.

Well, what more can I say about Mario that probably most of you don't already know by now. This is probably the most recognized video game song in all the world, even non-gaming people . From the Super Mario Bros. Super Show theme music to ringtone on many cellphones. It is also Koji Kondo's rise to fame.

There's also a lot of versions and arrangements to this song, and many people have played it on so many instruments and on many different events. Seriously, while not the best song ever, you have to recognize it's simple yet catchy tune.

If you have suggestions or recommendations for future "I love that song" segments or just wanna comment about the song please click the "Add new comment" link or contact us via Twitter: @Darktetsuya or me, @act_deft!

Until next time, keep on Playin'!

I'd say the most recognized video game song would be the Tetris theme, but that's only because it's also a Russian folk song or somethin like that.
