Eight Melodies

The Eight Melodies are respective melodious fragments found in EarthBound Beginnings and EarthBound. When combined, these fragments create tunes that serve as crucial plat devices in each crippled. It is explained by Maria in Ninten ‘s Magicant that this is because the Eight Melodies are a song she would sing to Giygas, whom she raised from infancy. In Mother, by singing the Eight Melodies, Ninten and friends are able to reawaken comforting memories Giygas had suppressed, ultimately weakening him and causing his withdraw. In EarthBound, the Eight Melodies transport Ness to his own Magicant, where he confronts his nightmare and awakens great inner persuasiveness .

Mother/EarthBound Beginnings

In Mother, the songs are earned from living things and from objects. In club, they are obtained from Mimmie ‘s Doll, Laura the Canary, the Podunk Zoo ‘s Singing Monkey, the Haunted Piano in Rosemary ‘s house, the Singing cactus in Yucca Desert, the Dragon inside Crystal Cavern, EVE, and last, George ‘s Gravestone. In the Famicom version of Mother, after collecting the seven melodies, it is necessary to talk to the Queen Mary in Magicant to get the concluding melody .

Mother2/EarthBound

In EarthBound, the songs are inherited through Ness ‘s childhood memories and recorded to the Sound Stone, at “ Your chancel ” locations. To truly understand himself and enter his mind, Ness must record all eight of these melodies to the Sound stone to gain entree to “ Your World ”, Magicant .

Lyrics

Mother Lyrics

Take a tune
Simple as can be
Give it some words and
Sweet harmony
Raise your voices
All day long now
Love grows solid now
Sing a tune of
Love, ohio love

Love is the power
Love is the glory
Love is the smasher
And the gladden of bounce

Love is the charming
Love is the floor
Love is the tune
We all can sing

EarthBound Lyrics

eminence : The original song was in japanese, the English is only a translation/localization. Grown-ups have done so much more stuff than me
There ‘s many things that I even want to see
now I take my backpack to the worldly concern
and fill it with memories

triviality

• In Mother, the Eight Melodies stop at “Oh, love“. The rest of the song can be found in the title screen and in the ending theme.
• Super Smash Bros. Brawl was supposedly intended to include both Eight Melodies songs as well as the Hippie Theme and Because I Love You. Nothing exists of the music except some internal track listings referencing it.
  • In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, the Magicant stage’s music is split in half, with the first half being the Magicant theme from EarthBound Beginnings and the second half for the Eight Melodies.
• A remix of the Eight Melodies from MOTHER can be heard after collecting a melody from one of the “Your Sanctuary” Locations, making it one of the few songs to appear in every game in the series.
• Despite sharing the same name in-game, the Eight Melodies from Mother and EarthBound are actually different tunes altogether. The Mother Eight Melodies appears in EarthBound as part of the track entitled “A Flash of Memory,” though it is heavily truncated and is subjected to delay effects.
• A difference between the two Eight Melodies is that the Eight Melodies from Mother, as mentioned above, act as a vulnerability of the main antagonist, while the Eight Melodies from EarthBound serve to transport Ness to Magicant, where he overcomes his nightmare.
• The original Mother version of the song plays in the Japanese commercial, promoting the game’s slogan, “No crying until the end(ing)” (エンディングまで泣くんじゃない, Endingu made nakun janai). It has been heavily associated with the Mother franchise since then.
• In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, the two final parts of the melodies from Earthbound Beginnings are Ness and Lucas’ new victory themes.
