Zelda Tunes: Back to the Future

As you all know, The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword is a great game. And as usual, it has an excellent soundtrack. Below is an orchestrated version of the main theme: Ballad of the Goddess.

An excellent theme that represents the colorful and epic nature of the game. But did you know that the song was heavily inspired by Zelda's Lullaby from Ocarina of Time?

And when I say 'heavily inspired', I mean it's the same song played backwards. Behold!

How very interesting! Makes you wonder what other treasures can be found by playing songs backwards. For example, here is the theme from Super Mario Bros.:


I don't recognize any other songs, but it is kinda catchy.

Well, have fun playing songs backwards, you weirdos!
