I consider myself somewhat of a connoisseur of video game music. As such I have decided to start this game up.
Instructions: Someone will post a link to a track from a video game. Do not post a link directly to the track. Download the track and do one of two things:
Make a quick video with the track in it and post it to youtube or other video site
Upload the track to a free upload site
If you can think of something else, go for it
After the track is uploaded guessing may begin. The person who gets it right will post the next track and the process will repeat. A correct answer states the game you hear it in. If you want to show off and say where in the game you hear it go ahead. Only guesses posted in this thread will count. Posting in the comments on a video will not.
Rules when choosing a song
Try not to choose a too outlandish track. Sure it can be a challenge, but don't choose a track from a game that only 5 people have heard of.
Do not upload remixes or covers. With a remix it can be difficult to ascertain what the original track was.
I'm pretty sure I have the points right, but if someone would check I'd appreciate that.

I can guarantee that that is from either Banjo Kazooie or Banjo Tooie. I just can't figure out what it is! Rawr!
I love vgm too, so I'll find this out no matter what!

It's been 3 days so here's your first hint:
Banjo-Tooie, but where did I hear that?
Big hint I know, but let this get going and then I'll drop more cryptic hints.

*Facepalm* I looked through all of the Banjo Kazooie soundtrack twice, but didn't think to look in the Banjo Tooie one.
I'll get on that!

Banjo Tooie, Jolly Roger's Lagoon.
Do I get to pick the next song if I'm right?

The video looks a bit weird, but it's all about the music!
This one will be a bit of a challenge, but chances are, most of you have probably heard of this game.

Correct, but where in Balloon Fight do you hear it?

Nope. I think there are only 3 or 4 tracks in the game though.

Here's Track #3. This one's tricky. Phew! Had to use a workaround but I got the track into a video.

Hmmm.... That's a hard one. It sounds like a song from a gameboy game. Does it happen to be from the Megaman gameboyy series? Just a random guess.

Wow! I thought this game had died out.
Anyway, that isn't it.
Hint #3: Kirby stacks stars.
Very obvious hint to try and get this going again. Also, at this point I will accept just the game as the correct answer. I'll also try not to do one this obscure again. I thought a Kirby game would've gotten more attention.

That would be it. Consider this my attempt to get it more attention.
Anyways your turn to pick a track Randomer.
