30 years ago today, the first game in the Mother series came out in Japan. Sure, it's my least favorite by far, especially when Mother 3 is my favorite game of all time, but it's still important for kickstarting the trilogy. Without it, EarthBound couldn't be the "remake" it is. However, one of the only things Mother 1 has over EarthBound is the dance scene between Ninten and Ana, something Ness and Paula didn't get. Fallin' Love is also one of my favorite NES/Famicom songs, so this is how I want to celebrate the series.

Since the song is repetitive and short enough, I decided to loop the entire song with each soundfont, resulting in a massive fusion. You're probably thinking this is way too much for one person to do, and you're right. This will probably be my longest single song ever. But it's my love letter to the Mother series, and I'm glad I put the time and effort into it.

I wanted to include a Chrono Trigger part, but the soundfont I had was from 2001 and lacked the key instruments from Corridors of Time. So I had to scrap it and use Pokemon RSE in its place. Of course, right after I posted this, I found a supplementary soundfont that has all the missing instruments, so I made the Chrono Trigger part on its own.
