Peaches From The Super Mario Bros. Movie
I know some people out there are likely tired of Jack Black’s hit song “Peaches” from the massively successful Super Mario Bros Movie. I get it. But I’m not tired of the jaunty little ditty—no, it makes me smile every time I hear it.
Perhaps I just love Jack Black too much, but this short song is easily the best thing to come out of an otherwise bland animated film. Seeing Jack Black dressed up as fancy Bowser in the music video is excellent and also might awaken some things in some folks…hmmm. I also need to shout out his recent remix and extended version, which is also good, too.
Black recently said he was surprised that the song even made it into the film, and I agree. I’d never expect Nintendo to be cool enough to let something like this exist, but they surprised me and the world with “Peaches.” Now I dread the sequel song that will be forced on us and won’t be nearly as good. That’s future Zack’s problem. For now, I’m going to jam out to “Peaches” one more time in 2023.
