Today, my school was holding a senior assembly in commemoration of the achievements of our rifle shooting team and similar activities.
As such, my spirits were rather low. At my school, assemblies are by no means an enjoyable affair, tending to drag on for far too long about subject matters I don't particularly care for.
I took my seat and braced for the oncoming slew of too long speeches, then stood up to the call of "Please stand for the official party."
The piano started to play as the most important people of the upcoming assembly walked into the hall and it struck me.
I knew that song.
As the official party arrived, they were serenaded by a piano score of this:
Suddenly, the assembly became a lot more tolerable. Coupled with some genuinely amusing moments, it was far better than I had hoped. But the end made it beautiful.
When the opening song played, I was the only person to really recognise it. The closing song, however, was far more famous.
Everyone cracked up. The laughter rang throughout the hall as the official party left, marking it the best assembly I've ever been to.
So tell me. Has music from a game ever popped up somewhere you would not expect, to your amusement? Are there any you would like to?
Any recommendations you have of good video game music would also be appreciated.
