MIDI Week Singles: "A Little Light Snowfall" - Yoshi's Woolly World / Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World (Wii U/3DS)

 


"A Little Light Snowfall" from Yoshi's Wooly World on the Wii U Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World on the 3DS (2015/2017)
Composer: Tomoya Tomita, Misaki Asada, Kazumi Totaka
Album: No Official Release
Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: Good-Feel

If ever there was a stage theme that encapsulated a winter stage, a Hallmark movie, and consuming knitted enemies and shooting out balls of yarn at puffy cotton ball clouds to form additional stepping stones.  Maybe this track is a little too on the nose as I could easily imagine it as the title music to some romantic-comedy Christmas-themed movie on Netflix about a royal Christmas wedding or a wonderful retelling of "The Prince and the Pauper" all set behind the backdrop of Christmas.

All of that aside, this is a great track for stage 5-5 in Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World on the 3DS, and maybe my view of this song is clouded by the fact that I really enjoyed stage 5-5 as it was fun with just the right amount of challenge to not feel like it was a game for babies.  All of the wintry elements are here too, from the jingle bells, the xylophone, the flutes, the strings, and for whatever reason, even the French horns seem to have a wintry feel.


Great song from the game and for this time of year.
