What's your favorite piece of Mario music?  The SMB2 character select theme? Sky Pop from Super Mario Land? What piece of Mario music could you listen to again and again?  Your thoughts are appreciated, and will help improve the WTMK music experience.  Leave your suggestions here, or e-mail us.

These are some of my personal favorites; I tried to limit the number per game.

SMB2 - Character Select, Title
SMB3 - Ending
SML - Muda Theme, Sky/Marine Pop
SML2 - Athletic Theme
SM64 - Slider, Ending
SMS - Delfino Square, Bianco Hills, Pinna Park, Platforms-a-Plenty
SMG - Melty Molten Galaxy, Buoy Base Galaxy, Ghostly Galaxy
SMG2 - Sky Station I & II, Fluffy Bluff Galaxy, Final boss music
SMK - Choco Islands, Vanilla Lakes, Ending, Tournament Lose
MK64 - Rainbow Road
PM - Dark Days in Flower Fields, Crystal King battle
M&L:SS - Welcome to the Beanbean Kingdom! (outskirts theme), Ending
M&L:PiT - Toad Town, Outside Thwomp Volcano, Hollijolli Village outskirts
G&WG3 (if that counts) - Greenhouse
Mario Party 5 - Bustling Noisily
Mario Party 7 - Credits
Mario Paint - Title, Main Themes 1 & 2, Gnat Attack boss
SMBDX - Credits
NSMB - Athletic, Vs. The Plains

To narrow it down further, I guess, I like the Super Mario Kart, Sunshine, Partners in Time, and Galaxies' soundtracks the best, particularly Super Mario Kart and Galaxy 2.  Choco Island might be my all-time favorite, I suppose.
If she is indeed genetically mutated such that she has an eye in the back of her head, then I guess that she is genetically mutated and has an eye in the back of her head.

Paper Mario's "versus the Monty Moles" - I don't know if that's the actual name of the tune, but the music that first plays when you are helping the one flower fight off a group of Moles. I have the soundtrack but it's not listed in that..

Paper Mario's level up (the same song BP listed)

SMB3's Grassland Map (I only listed this one so some later in my list would make sense..)

SMB3's Athletic Theme (first heard in level 1-2)

Yoshi's Island Atheltic Theme (first heard in level 1-5.. I think)

Mario & Luigi PiT Tutorials (also heard in the Holli Jolli Village outskirts)

Paper Mario TTYD's Chapter 3 extended intro (The one for when you first fly to Glitzville..)

Mario Party 4's Goomba's Greedy Gala Board (it sounds to me like a remix of Grassland's Map from SMB3..)

Mario Tennis 64 Toad's Victory Theme (I'm not just saying that because Toad is my favorite...)

Mario Kart 64 Choco Mountain and Block Fort
Kinopio is the ultimate video game character! Who else can drive a kart, host parties, play tennis, give good advice and items, and is almost always happy??

This is too tough for me because I don't have a single favorite. I'll name some of them:

Super Mario Bros: Overworld
Super Mario Bros. 2: Underground
Super Mario Bros. 3: World 6 (16-bit)
Super Mario 64: Dire Dire Docks
Super Mario Sunshine: Bianco Hills
Super Mario Galaxy: Gusty Garden Galaxy, Good Egg Galaxy
Super Mario RPG: Nimbus Land
Paper Mario: Mt. Lavalava
PMTTYD: X-Naut Fortress
Mario Kart Double Dash!!: Menu
Super Paper Mario: Francis Battle
Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga: Beanbean Outskirts
Mario & Luigi Partners In Time: Yoob's Belly
Mario & Luigi Bowser's Inside Story: Plack Beach
New Super Mario Bros. Wii: World 8 Map, World 9 Map
The Mario series is the best! It has every genre in video games but RTS'! It also has a plumber who does different roles, a princess, and a lot of odd creatures who don't seem to poop!

I could listen to the SM64 credits music for hours. And the SMW credits too, I guess.

Off the top of my head, it would be faster to say what songs I *don't* like from the Mario RPGs and SMG.

First off, those who only put one song or songs to one game should play more Mario, there are plenty of soundtracks that should catch you by surprise and your list should be covering a wide area.       My all time favourite soundtracks have to the following: 

                            1.The snow theme for super Mario 3d land
                            2.Castle theme 1 and 2 for super mario 3d land
                            3.The rest of the songs  in super Mario 3d land
                            4.Delphino plaza in super Mario sunshine
                            5.Secret of whatever place it is in super Mario sunshine
                            6.Luigi circuit in Mario kart for gba
                                           
                                               Thank you,

One I forgot and only recently discovered, if it counts, is one of the unused themes from Superstar Saga.
If she is indeed genetically mutated such that she has an eye in the back of her head, then I guess that she is genetically mutated and has an eye in the back of her head.
