The series started in 1989 with the Japan-only release of Mother, which was followed up by Mother 2, released as EarthBound outside Japan, for the Super NES in 1994. A second sequel was released in Japan only, Mother 3, for the Game Boy Advance in 2006. The music of the Mother series includes the soundtracks to all three games; the first game was composed for by Keiichi Suzuki and Hirokazu Tanaka, who were joined by Hiroshi Kanazu for the second game, while Mother 3 s score was written by Shogo Sakai. Mother saw the release in 1989 of an album primarily composed of vocal arrangements of pieces from its soundtrack; this album was re-released in 2004 in an expanded form. Earthbound had a soundtrack album associated with the game released in 1994 and again in 2004 that contained both original tracks from the game and medleys of multiple tracks. A compilation release, Mother 12, received a soundtrack album release in 2003, as well as an album of MIDI piano versions of songs from the two games in 2006. ![]() Multiple piano sheet music books of pieces from the series have been produced, and the Eight Melodies song originally featured in Mother has been included in some Japanese music textbooks. The games soundtrack was composed by Keiichi Suzuki and Hirokazu Tanaka. Tanaka was a video game composer working for Nintendo who had previously composed for games such as Super Mario Land and Metroid, while Suzuki was a composer and musician for bands of many different genres. The NES was only able to play three notes at a time, which Suzuki has noted greatly limited what he was able to produce, as he could not create some of the sounds he wanted. Melodies and themes from some pieces from the soundtrack were reused in the other games in the series. Pollyanna, Snowman and Humoresque of a Little Dog make an appearance in all three games.). It consists of eleven tracks, seven of which are English vocal arrangements of songs from the game created by Suzuki, David Bedford, Takeshi Saitoh, and Michael Nyman. The lyrics to these arrangements were written by Linda Hennrick. Each of the first ten tracks were performed by a different artist or group such as Catherine Warwick and St Pauls Cathedral Choir. The pieces were recorded at eight different studios in England, and a final 16-minute capstone track, The World of Mother, included most of the tracks from the game itself played back to back in their order of appearance in the game. The album cover shows the word MOTHER in a shade of brown over a red background; the letter O of MOTHER is replaced by an image of planet Earth, also with a brownish tinge. The soundtrack was reissued on February 18, 2004 by Sony Music Direct with its tracks digitally remastered, a song from EarthBound entitled Smiles and Tears was added, and the track The World of Mother was replaced with a version that is six minutes longer. Following a Kickstarter campaign, the American independent record label Ship to Shore PhonoCo worked with Sony Music to reissue the album on vinyl record in 2015. Only 2,000 copies were pressed, though a limited run of CD albums was also produced. He also applauded the production value, calling it incredible, especially for 1989. Square Enix Music Online, in their review of the album, called it a happy little gem with quirks and surprises. Though unlike RPGFan they felt that the sound production quality was not as good as it could be, they still felt that the pieces had stood the test of time in terms of good music. Pollyanna (I Believe in You) Keiichi Suzuki Catherine Warwick 3:42 2. Eight Melodies Suzuki, Tanaka St Pauls Cathedral Choir 5:46 11. Mother 2: Gyiyg Strikes Back), is a role-playing video game published by Nintendo for the Super NES video game console in 1994. Keiichi Suzuki and Hirokazu Tanaka reprised their roles from Mother as composers for the game, and were joined by assistant composers Hiroshi Kanazu and Toshiyuki Ueno. In an interview with Weekly Famitsu, Keiichi Suzuki commented on how the SNES gave the composers much more freedom to compose what they wanted than the NES, which made development of the music for EarthBound much easier than for its predecessor. ![]() Another advantage was that the SNES could support playing eight notes at the same time, which when combined with the increased sound quality meant that he could compose music for the game in a similar fashion to how he would compose music for real life. Suzuki cited John Lennon as an influential figure to all the composers while the soundtrack was being developed, as his songs about love matched up with the feeling of the game. Critics and players have noted similarities between parts of some songs in the game to popular songs, including several suspected homages to songs by Lennon and the Beatles. Legal issues surrounding these similarities were suspected to prevent the game from being released on the Virtual Console outside of Japan, but the rumors were ultimately proved untrue.
