- Grommy, on 12/24/2008, -2/+59The comment made this diggworthy.
- icantdenythis, on 12/24/2008, -0/+21good videogames transcend all cultures
- ronyu02, on 12/24/2008, -4/+22It's half in English, half in squiggly.
- betheturtle, on 12/24/2008, -1/+18This is the English - Hindi and then Hindi - English translation of Never Gonna Give You Up by Rick Atsely.
We have to love a stranger are
So you and I know the rules
A full commitment to what I'm thinking
Any other person will not be met
How do I feel I just want to tell you
You have to explain
Sometimes you will lose
Never one to disappoint you
Never run around and desert you
Sometimes you're crying
Ever going to say goodbye
Never tell a lie and hurt you
For a long time we know the other
My heart is aching
But you too ashamed to say this
What's going on inside both of us
We know the game and we're gonna play - TalSiach, on 12/24/2008, -2/+16OH man i just love these stuff, pure awesomeness. Jamming to super mario and drinking redbull thats the life!
- Eran9000, on 12/24/2008, -1/+15It is awesome to hear all the different styles of a video game we grew up on...just crazy. There was another cool version in an Acoustic Gypsy Style of Super Mario Bros 2...it was really done well: http://www.walyou.com/blog/2008/11/06/super-mario- ...
- airwalkery2k, on 12/24/2008, -1/+15Mario transcends cultures. Really, in the end, we all just want to see Mario jump on a goomba and save the princess.
- copypastry, on 12/24/2008, -0/+13***** yeah, Oud hero.
- oda1, on 12/24/2008, -0/+13I went back home to the middle-east over the summer -- and man, every single Arab-Male between the ages of 12-34 walks down the street with a cigarette in one hand and a redbull in the other.
PS. I enjoy how that quoted comment extrapolated world-peace out of Mario. - Sherman901, on 12/24/2008, -0/+11what the *****?
- BowZzer, on 12/24/2008, -1/+12you miss the point -- Super Mario Bros played by Qatarians is like the pastor from that anti-gay church going to a SF Castro Dance Club -- the world is getting smaller and people are exposing themselves to more than they ever would've.
- Alanamaslama, on 12/24/2008, -0/+10It was an observation, not a metaphor.
- aguynamedben, on 12/24/2008, -0/+9If it's a great song, it doesn't matter what instrument(s) it's played on.
- gllopc, on 12/24/2008, -6/+13सुपर मारियो ब्रदर्स
http://translate.google.com/translate_t#hi%7Cen%7C ... - contradictator, on 12/24/2008, -0/+7It's Christmas Eve and I just watched someone from the other side of the world show us that we're not so different after all.
That's just awesome. - zerocool1990, on 12/24/2008, -0/+6يا لطيف على هديك الايام
- AsSubtleAsABrik, on 12/24/2008, -1/+6Digg needs a Super Mario Brothers Theme section.
- nonpareil, on 12/24/2008, -0/+5I love al Oud.
- mowe, on 12/24/2008, -0/+5Uhh, it's not really that big a deal that they're from Qatar. Super Mario Bros. is the highest selling game of all time, plus millions of pirated copies.
You're crazy if you HAVEN'T played the game in the 23 years since its release. - compgeek, on 12/24/2008, -0/+4awesome. Always interesting to hear songs like that played on different instruments
- oda1, on 12/24/2008, -0/+4Who ya callin' a Goomba, ah? Vafangoo you.
- OneLess, on 12/24/2008, -0/+4Because peace through preparation for war has worked soooo well throughout history. It's cute how you think that if governments have large militaries, they won't be mightily tempted to use them, but you're also just naive.
If war were human nature, would drafts be needed? Would people have to be trained and conditioned to be able to handle killing? A vast majority of people throughout history, for practical purposes 100%, have never started a war. Even Hermann Goering understood this. - sadisticmind, on 12/24/2008, -0/+4i can tell im bored at work because i am having fun with the "सुपर मारियो ब्रदर्स" on Google Translator
"सुपर मा रि यो ब्रदर्स" = Super Yo Ma Brothers Re - Daxx22, on 12/24/2008, -0/+3Gee, and I thought they were playing on this Ood:

Woulda been more disturbing >.> - method7670, on 12/24/2008, -0/+3Just change your name to neo nazi... you are no better than any other small minded terrorist in this world with that philosophy.
- Sherman901, on 12/24/2008, -0/+3that's about as close to bluegrass as johnny cash is to dimebag darrell.
- zerocool1990, on 12/24/2008, -0/+3Which middle east country?
You do know there's 22 Arab countries right ?
And that almost each one has a different culture than the other. - wibambau, on 12/24/2008, -0/+3इस पागलपन बंद करो !
- Zomgondo, on 12/24/2008, -0/+2No *****.
- AyaJulia, on 12/25/2008, -0/+2@Mononuclear: No, the "22 Arab countries" refers to the Arab League. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arab_league#Members_a ...
- thecoolestguy, on 12/25/2008, -0/+2So there are three blacks in traditional Arab grobe, playing the Super Mario theme on an Oud, on Youtube.. Oh and you can see a redbull in the corner of the screen. This is a very strange scene for me. Just so many unexpected combinations.
- method7670, on 12/24/2008, -0/+2Super Mario... World Uniter!
- CoreyTamas, on 12/24/2008, -0/+2Let me refer you to Bertrand Russell:
"There is one peculiarly pernicious application of the doctrine that human nature cannot be changed. This is the dogmatic assertion that there will always be wars, because we are so constituted that we feel a need of them. What is true is that a man who has had the kind of diet and education that most men have will wish to fight when provoked. But he will not actually fight unless he has a chance of victory. It is very annoying to be stopped by a speed cop, but we do not fight him because we know that he has the overwhelming forces of the State at his back. People who have no occasion for war do not make any impression of being psychologically thwarted. Sweden has had no war since 1814, but the Swedes were, a few years ago, one of the happiest and most contented nations in the world. I doubt whether they are so still, but that is because, though neutral, they are unable to escape many of the evils of war. If political organization were such as to make war obviously unprofitable, there is nothing in human nature that would compel its occurrence, or make average people unhappy because of its not occurring. Exactly the same arguments that are now used about the impossibility of preventing war were formerly used in defense of duelling, yet few of us feel thwarted because we are not allowed to fight duels." - will2000, on 12/24/2008, -1/+3world peace is a little closer.
- CoreyTamas, on 12/24/2008, -0/+1In a time when politicians and media are trying to make us think we're all different, the more we remind ourselves that we all want and like the same things, the better. Whether or not it's a video game doesn't really matter... the point is about something else.
- mr138, on 12/24/2008, -0/+1Ah, I was wondering where Hootey went.
- nattybohman, on 12/25/2008, -0/+1I thought the same thing.
Wasn't sure how Ood was spelled until I followed your link, but funny that we were thinking the same thing. - S2000, on 12/24/2008, -1/+2If you can't get nostalgic listening to the greatest video game score ever, you have no soul.
- scubasteve03, on 12/25/2008, -0/+1I guess what I'm trying to say is, if I can change, and you can change, maybe we all can change! ADRIAN! I LOVE YOU!
- method7670, on 12/24/2008, -0/+1Speak ENGRISH!
- EdgarVerona, on 12/24/2008, -0/+1That was awesome.
- manaf, on 12/24/2008, -0/+1GO 3ARABO!
- patFX, on 12/28/2008, -0/+1grats?
- bakagaigin, on 12/24/2008, -0/+1That is something which I enjoy.
- 1what1, on 12/25/2008, -0/+1खोदना छ
- Mononuclear, on 12/24/2008, -0/+1And Iran isn't even an Arab country, it is Persian so not sure if that's included in your 22 or not.
- patFX, on 12/28/2008, -0/+1you're an idiot
- CoreyTamas, on 12/24/2008, -1/+2Awesome on every level. Neat little song, well-played, and a great message behind it. No matter where we go in the world, we're all still just dudes.
- TexasFlood93, on 12/26/2008, -0/+1 this version (played on 3 Greek Bouzoukia) is also very cool.
