I just cant deal with Dire Dire Docks... To this day i just cant ! Cant stop from tearing up. My 4 year old daughter said "whats wrong dad?" I had NO good answer. What should i say? "Im 8 years old, im jumping into a painting and i fall down on a beach surrounded by water and a weird snake on a boat and im just loving the music and now 30 years later i still remember that feeling i got back then. Naaaaa 😂😢❤

Wait wait wait !!!!! Is pianote actually enbracing VGM !!? Please please do lessons catering to this amazing category. I'll buy a second lifetime membership 😀😅🎉
This shows japanese people take there music very srsly all these scores are masterpieces 🔥
Video game music is highly underrated. All you have to hear is one note and you know it's Mario!
I highly recommend everyone here to listen to the soundtrack of Megaman 8 from PS1... It'll really blow your mind. 👌
So many Zelda songs! Nothing can beat Zelda's soundtrack!

While I love Zelda, Chrono Trigger begs to differ.
green hill zonre really is like a time machine
Jemma's picks were delightful and fun! I hope one day we get to hear the tunes from Spyro on the piano. The drummer from the Police Stewart Copeland made the music of those games!
Castlevania II FTW 👍
I also love the mega man 3 title screen song, StarCraft terran theme 4, Mario kart 64 credits, fzero big blue, and fzero mute city
Jemma really makes that Moog sing! 🙌
Making a top 50 of the best is already difficult, top 20 then... You can be sure that at least 10 of them must be on everyone's list! Amazing video, THANK YOU!
Yesss 1:12 is crazy!
Que maravilha! Adorei. Parabéns
I first discovered Jemma from her "Bloody Tears" cover a few years back. Awesome to see her featured here. "Dire Dire Docks" is probably my all-timer in terms of piano-specific VGM. Fantastic selection and performance!
A lot of Koji Kondo's tracks !!! 😉 Nice work, very cool video, but too short. Please the full version.

Woa woa woa, wait. No One Winged Angel?! Dang, I thought that was in the top 20.
I need a part 2 D: That was amazing. Loved it.
This is exactly why I wanted to start learning piano at 35. Final fantasy music at first, then just gaming in general. This video was so nostalgic for me, amazing playing! ❤️❤️ Edit: also love the coordination with the lights!

Jemma is an absolute monster. I saw her version of "Bloody Tears" a few years back and have been following her ever since. Big fan.
Yo Jemma rules! Great seeing her on this channel!
Frank Tedesco is an amazing pianist here on youtube. You should invite him on next time. He has incredible "play it by ear" skills. Having said that, those of us who are subscribed to pianote are also subscribed to many other pianist KZreadrs such as Frank, Marcus Veltri and Zach Hyde among others. It would be pretty cool to see some of our favorite KZreadrs invited on pianote for different challenges. Granted, we love big time artists like Jemma Heigis and Jordan Rudess as well 😅.

100% this! I'd love to see Frank and also Marcus Veltri on Pianote!
That run on Guile's theme
I think Jemma is the most well rounded piano musician in modern times. She can play any style and make it sound flawless, even after adding her very own signature accents.
+1 for recognizing the genius of Nintendo music…
AWESOME! More Jemma! And doing her specialty :) edit to add: Dire Dire Docks is by far my favorite, and if anyone wants to hear the full thing, she has a complete version on her channel that is just the greatest video game music cover you've ever heard!!

Donkey Kong Country - Aquatic Ambience Final Fantasy VII - One Winged Angel (Sephiroth's Theme) The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - Dragonborn (Main Theme)
Wonderfully done
very iconic tracks with a few under the radar ones, good choice i still dream to see a medley like that with more tracks that people usually don't know about, for the OST connoiseurs. as an aspiring composer, most of my favourite tracks are usually ones that people don't know, like Sacred Distance from Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance, or Servants of The Mountain from Final Fantasy X. There is so much beauty to be discovered, that i really wanna scream about it so more people get to know
How the heck did I miss this video? She played my childhood.
Isso é muito legal, diversão pura!!!!
Full version of Guile''s theme pls
Nostalgia! Oh my gash! 🤯
More Undertale please! Love it
I cant believe that dkc stickerbrush symphony was not on this.
This was great! My favorite video game soundtrack will always be Ultima IV. I had an Atari ST with built in MIDI ports and a Yamaha DX7 connected to it. I had forgotten to turn it off when I went to play the game and I was floored to hear the soundtrack being played by the DX7 - the game would output MIDI if it was connected. This was 1986 and such quality of sound was unrivaled back then. I didn't hear anything that could even come close to that quality in a game until the Soundblaster AWE 32 was released in 1994.

Hell yeah. Roland MT32 music was also great back in the day.
I would play the wii sports theme like that at my wedding
This was awesome! I’d love to hear you play the full version of all of these songs
I was waiting for spark mandrill's theme from megaman x. 'cos yo, that song is really good. 😂
muito bomm !! 🎉🎉🎉🔥
I really enjoyed this so much! I make music but can't really play the piano and am somewhat at a loss as to what to use to get better. I would TOTALLY learn the Mario, Zelda and Wii Sports music you played here. Where did you get the arrangements? Or did you make them yourself?
😮 This is amazing! Great work Jemma.
Bro what I would give to have those skills to play piano. I want to cry every time I hear FFVII on piano. Everything else gives me nostalgia 100% but my favorite is anything Final Fantasy. It's crazy dude, she plays everything exactly the same 😭😭🙌🙌🥲🥲🫡🫡
Grim Fandango soundtrack is the goat actually
Pretty good spread! I was hoping for P5’s Last Surprise, Mortal Kombat’s theme, and some DKC & MGS, but trying to file down VGM’s greatest into just 20 us no mean feat, and all those picked were definitely classics in their own right.
Would have loved to hear a F-Zero song from her.
Such a precise playing. Wow!!! I am amazed, thank you
This is just incredible This gives an idea for playlist
So happy to see this video! Awesome list :) I am surprised that Zelda's Lullaby isn't here, but I totally understand as there's so many other Zelda/Nintendo songs on the list already haha!
Wily's Castle is the best video game tune in the history of video games
Fantastic list and fantastic playing!
CastleVania had some bangers
Amazing selection and performance! 🔥
I truly admire you Jemma! This girl is on fire! 🔥
Great choices and clear piano play 👍 But I miss gerudo valley and the opening stage from Mega Man X. Funny Jacket your wear 😅👍
heck yes!! Jemma delivers absolute fire on keys 🔥
Beautiful execution. Nice list too. I just missed any DKC's David Wise songs. It could be Stickerbush Symphony, Aquatic Ambience or basically the Main Theme.
Now, a top 20 Destiny 2 songs.
Jemma playing is pure 🔥
WONDERFUL 😊
BRAVO JEMMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That was absolutely awesome
I could also lock myself in a room with Dire Dire Docks playing for a week and call that a vacation
Rugrats jacket is dope af!
I got stuck up in the scream at the end of the Doom song . 😂 1:12
That was great! If there's a part 2, we need some Nier, Hollow Knight, Celeste music as well :)
Oh man... Gonna need the full extended megamix for this!
Ducktales - Moon theme is the obvious number 1 for me. Other than that, excellent!
My takeaway from this video is that 8bit songs should be played on the moog
Guile theme is what i listen to everytime i have to do something challenging
This was awesome!
Pure bangers! 🔥
Gold Jemma, this is gold!!!!
I love videogame music she nailed it!
Would've love to see some Super Metroid! But this list was tasty AF

I can't believe Gerudo Valley from OOT and Energy Zone from Contra weren't included. Lost Woods is okay, but it isn't nearly as good as Gerudo Valley. The Contra soundtrack is severely underrated. Great work, though! Love the unique touch on each tune.
How cool is all of this ❤❤👏👏
Excelente
I hope we get videos for the full pieces for each of these!
Meus parabéns ao Pianote pelo belíssimo trabalho realizado no KZread todos esses anos
When the pokemon theme hits tho
Dig the list! My only gripe is that Aquatic Ambience from Donkey Kong Country is missing. That's right up there with Dire, Dire Docks, and Chemical Plant Zone for me.
Love the video. But I missed at least one FF7 song.
At 3:05 I made that exact stank face on the high note 😂 killer playing!
Amazing❤❤
was this streamed or is there a longer video for this cos id really like to watch the whole thing
Part 2 please 🙏🏽
where the hell is the MGS theme?!?!?!?! she´s very talented btw!
Pretty good but Aeris/Aerith's theme needs to be here...
Can we do one with TV show themes.
Awesome
Can you cover Chrono Trigger 's theme song?
Great list, but no Aquatic Ambience!? So many bangers on DKC.
