2:55:02 je n'avais jamais remarqué que les sims 3 en France avait repris cette musique !
This is amazing! Can this soundtrack be purchased anywhere? I would LOVE to add this to music collection.
Makin Magic - 7's timestamp is a bit off. 3:01:00 is more accurate.
There's one missing from the list. I don't know the name, but it's the one where you go to the farmer's market to buy seeds and / or sell veggies.
Ah yes, human music.
I love this comment. Thank you.
Yes.
Hmm. I like it.
LOL. stop making us feel like Jerries.
I like human music too
This is the real "beats to study/chill too".
preach
I can't study or work on this playlist because nostalgia hits me too hard... :(
Yes sir. I'm studying listening to this masterpiece.
the OG
yes!
Here I am. Sitting in an apartment with a job feeling like a sim I created from 2001. I need to fill my sleep meter and brush my teeth.
Relatable
You don't really need to though. Just drink 10 coffees, then wash your hands in the sink 5 times and you're good to go...
@@pyrokar1990 HA poor guy my sim was xD
You still living a good sim life, bro?
Fuck man, FUCK
I legit cried with some of these. When life was just about having fun.
Same here
Still is . Have you leveled up your SIM? Maybe leave the US??
me too bro....
Amen. I hate when I get into a show or a comic or a video game, and right when I'm starting to really enjoy it, it gets needlessly political or preachy. Like, dude, I'm just trying to have a bit of escapism. At least we have these classics to return to.
Crying with goosebumps! 😭
Every 30 year old remembers the feeling of booting up their XP each crisp morning and plopping in that scratched CD. Mom walked in, yawning and turned on the coffee. You sat patienrly reading the subtitles on the loading screen. The world was yours, man.
XP was a great system, i remember i used to have a Macintosh which was my first desktop computer, and playing warcraft II, and oh my first Sims game, Sim Ant on floppy disc. Easily one of the best Sim games.. i remember thinking how cool having a desktop was... then messing with windows 98 playing age of empires, and thought wow they took it a step further...once XP came out i really felt like it fit perfectly for the era, and that was when i first played the Sims. Good times, i mean damn, since im already rambling do you remember when napster worked good? Or morpheous, kazaa, limewire all thay stuff. Haha i still think a have a few mp3s from back then on some random hard drive lol. Sorry for the book... Kaha
@Lulls Baby Same for me but I'm 20, when i was 8 or 9, my brother buyed a pirate copy with all the expansions, it was a bit fun, until a house fire appears, the fire scares me and my sister shitless, she thought there was a demon on the fire. I enjoyed more making houses and my dream vacation site with everything i could possibly fit.
One of the most life’s joyful moments
i was so hooked in high school that i'd sneak into the office room late at night to play. god can you imagine having god damn TIME LIMITS playing a game like this? it was really the first game where you really felt that "The world was yours, man" feeling. sims 2 and minecraft were pretty amazing but there's nothings like your first. I remember one night I heard my mom's footsteps closing in at like 1:00am and I quick-goat-thinking switched the monitor off, ducked under the desk and pulled the office chair in. She see's that the computer is on and shuts it down which killed like an hour of unsaved progress which i quickly made up plus about 5 more hours. 1st-hour study hall really came in handy in those time lol
This is oddly accurate. And I loved every moment of it.
This is what an ikea catalogue sounds like when you put your ear up against it.
😂😂
EXACTLY!!!! Good one you got there Well done 👍
At that point I'd be beyond lost. I now live in IKEA
good joke ngl
I’ll usually listen to this music when looking at an IKEA catalogue!
The Original Sims game has an atmosphere that none of the other games replicate. Sims 2 onward it was "modern living" as a base and adding wackiness through subsequent expansions. Sims 1 had that American TV Sitcom Americana feel that oozed into everything.
Perfectly described.
Exactly
Never could nail down that experience with words until you said it, Americana sitcom series is perfect.
That is why Sims 2 was more successful in countries outside of the US. People couldn't really relate to the American TV Sitcom feel, many countries in Europe didn't even have American sitcoms. BUT I love The Sims 1, it's full of nostalgia, even though it's not as relatable to me as it possibly could have been.
@@MilkMiruka in latinamerica sims 1 was huge, it is still the best sims ever created
when life was simple, and there were no worries
you are damn right
theres always been worries my dude
@@shinyhunteralec Not when you're 12... then you grow up and have responsibilites and crap.
fucking time. cruel mistress
man I remember playing it on an old computer at my grandmas home on summer vacations, truly brings me back damn
The entire Building Mode had, imo, the most breathtaking music of the game. Those melodies suited perfectly with the spirit of "to build a home". They had something that went beyond the game itself.
It just matches that relaxing feeling you had while playing the sims and building your home. They never had a better soundtrack than the sims 1
Agreed with to both of ya
I couldn't agree more.
Mee too, agreed
Except Buying Lumber, that track is beyond melancholic.
I haven't heard this music in about 18 years, holy shit that nostalgia hit me hard.
Same, brother. Same. 😭
we're same broo damn
so we're all here huh 😭
After school. Every day. My mom would be yelling to let my brother use it for a bit. Fantastic times.
So almost when the game was made
I knew that the music at my dentist's clinic sounded familiar
why does my dentist play the same music? is this a dentist thing?
@@vania4992 It's royalty free and child appropriate. There's not even lyrics to a lot of the songs. No worries about angry Karens screaming about how the music is too inappropriate for their kids. If I were a dentist, I'd play this stuff too, it's chill and calming and most people are already on edge at the dentist. I know I am.
@@EdwardoLover Why would they be royalty free? They were composed for the games and can be bought on Amazon or iTunes.
@@razmatazz9310 i dunno. Just heard they were. I hear them in the background of KZhead videos all the time.
big brain dentist
It's like this music was composed for the sole purpose of being nostalgic.
Animal Crossing on GameCube (which came out roughly round the same time) is another great example of that!
yep, even back then it seemed... special, iconic.
The Sims 1 was truly a surreal game. Sound effects that genuinely scared people (Burglar/Fire), horrifying death sounds, the stripper cake, the vibrating heart bed, random phone dialog boxes, all the little mini games, the list could go on. The newer games can never top this unique "feel" The Sims 1 had. Also RIP to the og female voice actor.
@Altermay yeah. She is dead in January 2019 ):
oh no!!! what was her name?
@@carmenwinstead693 Gerri Lawlor
I thought I remembered Sims1 very well - but I can't remember any mini games? Remind me please 😍
This was when the game creator, Will Wright, had control and input of the game. You can definitely see the unique quirks, music and idiosyncrasies of the game were his brainchild. Eventually the game came under full control of EA around the end of the Sims 2, and beginning Sims 3. You can tell the difference. The Sims 1 is a product of pure inspiration.
I'm suddenly taken back to the early 2000's.
Same here! My est buddy got me into this game. It takes me back to hanging and chilling at his house playing this.
I was just a child back then, but sometimes I really miss those years. Life was simpler.
Metnahmena. This graw, iss friendshay!

Hi Buds! Greets from Poland!
If this is elevator music, I'm never getting off any floor.
😆😆😆😆😆
LOL good one you got there
It’s actually used as elevator music on The Sims 3
Kind of, one should not be ashamed about elevator music. Don't be afraid, in fact Sims got me in to it...
That’s such a cool fact! I have to check that out next time I play because I missed it.
I remember the feeling. In my school, only a few classmates were "lucky enough" to have a computer to play it. At home, we had a single computer for the whole family. We couldn't afford the real game, though. I remember when me and my father went to the street market in order to get a pirated copy. I still remember the chills while I watched the installation screen, and my dad clicking that forward button. At that moment, it was only The Sims 1, no expansions. The memories of playing The Sims are some of the greatest memories of my life. I can remember the excitement of going home after school just to play it. I remember the weekends playing it. It was unique. The creation of the family, the description, the house building, the large families struggling to earn a living, the careers, the burglars, the phone calls telling you won/lost something... What a great feeling!
Amazing. I felt that too.
Damn made me shed a tear
Yes!! Same here! I remember being so excited over seeing a sim washing their hands at the sink. Me, as a 8 year-old: WOOOOW, the technology! she's WASHING HER HANDS and I can see the FOAM!!! 😂
Same with me, man! Greetings from Indonesia.
Had a big smile reading this, what a happy story.
this is therapy
📠 Facts 📠
THIS.
100% Already feeling like Bob!
This game is more addictive than crack, I remember staying up until 5am playing. Just buying mundane things like a TV and a new toilet.
LOL ikr i wasted so many hours of my young life on this game but had so much fun, no regrets, i remember seeing the sunrise sometimes being sat at my computer like, yea time to actually get in my real bed right now, lmao.
Thats because it was impossible to play just a little bit... There were so many variables, youd get sucked in. I used to download add ons of items and add them into the file system so i could have new stuff next time i played kahaa
@@beyondthesacrosanctbreeze Oh yes i remember all those websites with mods of items and new clothes you could download lol.
@@ChloeDust I only ever had the original disc and never updated or got any of the add ons. My updates and addons were those mods lol
Things we couldn't afford because we were 10.
I can't even slightly remember a sims 4 or 3 track. This stays in the mind forever as a piece of unique history does.
same here, i can remember 1 and 2 music, but nothing comes to mind from 4, 3 wasnt bad, but not as memorable
There was one loading screen theme from Sims 3 that stuck with me, but I see what you mean. Sims 1 music is iconic
I remember the most of soundtrack except 4. 3rd part was the most played in my childhood and I can remember 50% of soundtrack from there while 4th part is all bland and boring (while 4th soundtrack still sounds beautiful).
Real orchestra recording. I remember that in the credits you can see the full list of musicians. This game has one of the most wonderful soundtracks ever. Seems like something out of a Disney movie or something, really magical.
10:04 my favorite, sax is amazing.
Yes. I don't know how but I've heard some The Sims tracks used in random tv shows, like Masterchef Italian version (lol).
I swear "Building Mode 3" has been stuck in my head for about two decades now.
most Building mode tunes are still in my head daily these past 20 years :')
For me it's "Buy Mode 1"
My favorite from Build Mode!
That's cocaine for contractors.
🤣🤣🤣
Play this video on your phone whilst showering, and you'll feel like you're a sim. lmao
lol isn't it ecstasy?
I do this! try playing the sims 2 cas music while you're getting ready lol
Im playing this while cleaning whole house.
instruction unclear, my phone got wet and electructed me
As an architect, this is my go-to list on ever lasting labor days designing. Makes my job feels more like a game.
I listen to it while “building” my research papers 😂
I love this and your existence, thank you.
It sparked in me my passion for interior decoration
I've been listening to this while remodelling my kitchen :D
same here, oh and it also reminds me of the simpler times haha
My childhood friend who introduced me to the Sims passed away a few years ago and the first "building mode" song got me in the feels pretty good I remember me and him would spend hours designing houses going over the finest details like does the dresser match the doors, it was a lot of fun. RIP.
My childhood best friend I played this game with passed away last year. This hit me too. BIG time. I've been losing myself in Sims 4 when I find the time. I'm so sorry for your loss.
RIP 😢😢😢 I don’t want that to happen to me. My best friend also introduced to this game and I know it would be inevitable to not think of him, even more than how I do it now, if he passes away and I’m still alive. Hopefully their family allowed to play this at his funeral…. FUCK! Why am I thinking that 😢😢😢 I need to call him ASAP
Building mode 2 (45:18 - 50:24) has to be one of the most complex and emotionally mature pieces I've ever heard. Sims 1 had a lot of passion in it's soundtrack, you can really tell.
@@mostwant3dgov music nerds
Yes!! My fav song!!
True, but I still think Build Mode 5 is the biggest masterpiece of this whole ost
indeed, some of those build mode piano tracks hit a little too hard and deep on the first too games. makes you want to cry some of them.
Remove The context of a game. Just life's peaks and valleys. Tears emerge.
I’am literally in tears, the flood of memories that just rushed in is crazy😢😳☺️

@@martinmorales5482 Go to therapy for using :S in 2022
@@martinmorales5482 Sure, mate. Therapy is so good, helps one understand and accept oneself and others. Going to tell my therapist on Monday how important Sims was for me as a kid and why. Also why I feel like returning to that nostalgia now. Take care!
Bro I played this game when I was 5 now I’m 13
30:07 I’ve had this song in my head the past 21 years. I miss the Sims so much, it’s not the same anymore
Same 😍 amazingly amazing. It comes into my head at random times.
Woke up in the morning today and this song just popped up in my head after 20 years.
lmao for the past 21 years. I chuckled because all of these songs have lived rent free in my head for literal decades
Thanks buddy, i’m crying now 😭
I love that one. Listening to it, i imagine suburbs in the 50s, where every house is exactly the same, perfect little lawns and mail boxes. House wives kissing their husbands goodbye as they head off to work.
We need republish of this game. But not remastered, maybe some bugs or glitch fixes. We need the same classic graphics. That's what makes it cool.
exactly. there was such a nice feeling to it. expansive yet just enough. just a rerelease that's polished and we would all rejoice.
Yes, also adding forgotten mechanics like stairs, visit lots, and why not? Childs that actually grow up
Much like the new Age Of Empires they remastered, Id buy Sims 1 again...
I would like the same 2D sprites redrawn in HD, but still 2D.
nostalgia is like looking through rose-tinted glasses, i've played the sims 1 fairly recently, it hasn't aged well, if you've played any of the games that came after it, it won't be the same as that first experience you had with it.
I was pregnant and put on bed rest and played this game alot, sipping tea and hot cocoa and wasting time screaming at sims setting fire to everything lol
That sounds like the life!
@@siyang2 Not really. preterm labor pains aren't fun!
I was pregnant and on bed rest too! This game really helped with the boredom. 😉
I remember the summer vacations of 2001. Playing this game with my best friend after hours of walking around the neighborhood and playing soccer. We would meet early in the morning and would say our goodbyes "only" after 8pm. Then we would exchange funny messages on ICQ and go to sleep only to do all that again the next day. This soundtrack brings back so many great memories of being a restless kid full of hopes and dreams, sharing life with a likewise restless kid who once was "the new guy" in school and no one wanted to talk to him. I did. And boy, oh boy, did I make the right choice. We're still best friends to this day, a bit far away from each other and with families and work, but every time we meet It's summer of '01 again. Thanks for making this soundtrack available. It made my day. =)
Aww. Thanks for sharing that nice little part of your life. I was happiest when I was playing this game as a kid with no friends lol.
🙌🏼💖
I so relate! My best friend I played this with actually passed away last year and just the other day, I ran across some picture that reminded me of classic sims and for a split second, I thought of messaging her about it. It's weird how something as simple as the sims created this crazy bond. We would play the sims, walk to the park, or play games on the original playstation. Those summers were magical.
I can almost cry on nostalgia. All these melodies still play on my mind at random moments. Listening to them is like being in peace.
I love being born in the early nineties to enjoy this in my childhood
I'm 92' and i feel the same.
30:07 ^_^ My fav! That moment when you have saved money to buy something great and you are totally looking forward to it, omg.
Yes it's so happy and optimistic! But then you're actually in a dark room hunched over a computer lol.....
*_*
It sounds like, cherr llyod - superhero
oh bliss~
This is the music that plays in my head when I enter IKEA with a purpose!
the instant serotonin boost I got when I clicked onto this. I missed being a kid and playing this after school.
The whole of the Building Mode Music is a VIBE. SO nostalgic.
Honestly this soundtrack is iconic.
This and sims 2 music makes me cry hahaha I miss my life when sims 1 and 2 were the biggest parts of it❤️
I know that feeling, nostalgic that hurts!
@@SultanTuner1 Exactly! hahaha
im 27 now and i was about 9 when i played the sims. im a musician now and i have to say thanks to this music as it would've definitely helped me listening to all this for hours on end. Fantastic music, fantastic game, fantastic memories.
i'm 26, YES! I play clarinet, guitar, uke, and basic piano/trumpet
There’s never been a game that quite got the music so right than this entire masterpiece. Absolute perfection from my childhood.
Wow, it's the Buy Mode songs for me. Feel like these are sporadically stuck in my head for the last 18 or so years
Aged like fine wine.
8:23 I just realised they took this sound from this soundtrack and used it in The Sims 2 for when your sim’s want is fulfilled 🤩
Oh thats good trivia right there!
I can almost hear the clicking that comes after that sound when the wants/fears reroll lol
Oh my god i just realized it!!
30 here. It's March 2023 and I'm still highly addicted to Jazz and Bossa Nova thanks to the genius artistic minds of Marc Russo and Jerry Martin. Love you guys. Nothing like some modern high tempo suburban or city jazz. I'd love to open my own Sims cafe or restaurant irl.
you will like astrud gilberto then
Any of you out there still play the Sims1? I do, it's still a solid game.
I'm playing Sims 3. 1 and 2 wouldn't satisfy me as much anymore, because of Sims 3's true 3D graphics, open world, much more flexibility and options concerning building and playing in general. But I still have the good times of 1 in my mind. And all Sims 1 CDs/DVDs in my shelf. 😉
I'm trying to reinstall it right now. But I never really learned how to play it well. I expect to spend hours spraying cockroaches before getting visited by the tragic clown and then losing the whole house to a fire my first time cooking something. Wish me luck lol
Just put in about 5 hours of play tonight. It was magical.
my poor old pc only can take The Sims 1 so i play that... but i can't complain it is a fun game
yes i love it! as i'm older i'm learning new things about the game even though i played it for years!
Makes me wish they'd re-release this game on Switch or something. Love this soundtrack.
I could say the same for The Sims 2. Don't care if the sequel is basically an upgraded version of the original, remaster them both as HD remasters a la Final Fantasy X/X-2!

This music makes me so damn happy it's ridiculous. Listened to these for easily hundreds of hours and haven't heard them in almost 20 years. One of the greatest OSTs and it doesn't get enough praise today.
Fr. It showered me with my childhood memories ❤
It’s the Build Mode tracks that stick with me the most. They just capture that wistful nostalgia like nothing else. Every time I listen to them it’s like everything stops for a moment and I can see right back to the world I lived in when I was a child. It’s like going back home. And more than any of the others, Build Mode 6 is the one I get lost in the most. It’s like a warm, bittersweet hug from an old friend I can’t quite go back to. It’s ironic they have such mundane and clinical names because they’re some of the most profoundly moving pieces of music I have in my life.
nothing was as traumatizing as getting robbed or getting those "prank" phone calls as a kid... made my parents sit next to me every time I played bc of it lol, at least the music makes the experience much better
this is so cute wtf😭
The scariest thing was the music when, God forbid, you miss a day of work.
@@JohnDoe-on6ru GOD SAME. I started making my Sim not answer the phone when it rang after missing a day, and eventually I just stopped giving my Sims phones lol
"Do you canoe"
The ghosts and getting robbed scared the shit out of me 😂
Never in my life will I forget this game. Sims 1 always has a special place in my heart next to Pokemon Blue and Ocarina of Time.
as a brazilian, "ba di ba ba da ba di ba" hits really hard
I can't believe it. over 21 years later and it's still stands out to me as amazing.
Timeless
The music is masterpiece. The game is master masterpiece. Deserves a remake
To be honest, all sims Soundtracks (except for 4) have been memorable to me in their unique way... But first The Sims will always have the best soundtrack in my opinion. All the songs work really well with the idea of simulating life, they all fit the idea they were meant to be used at... Specially Makin' Magic OMG those songs are incredible
Sims 4 is still the newest sims game. It will be soon.
@@MrPillowStudios Yeah, but Sims 4 has already been out for a very long time, recieving DLC after DLC, more and more meaningless gameplay after meaningless gameplay... I remember when I bought the game on the release date, and still it has not marked me by any means, the saddest part is that a lot of people feel the same way I do. Sims 4 just focused on the wrong things instead of focusing on being a Sims game, like the older games have =P
@@victastico291that’s EA for you
Only sims 1 soundtrack was spectacular
My Lord this brings back some memories. Build mode is simultaneously the most iconic collection of tracks, while also sounding like one of those old-timey infomercial things from the 80s and 90s. Lol.
Most nostalgic game ever
45:18 Buying Lumber Truly, truly, one of my fondest memories. Having a bad day at school (as many were) and coming home to silently cry into this music as the sound of the piano drifts my mind away...
Not only a game but an entire experience of quality time. A proof for myself that life is worth living.
I always found Buy Mode to be exciting and Build Mode depressing. So much nostalgia!
exactly
Build mode isn't depressing, it's calming and relaxing!
We’re the real Sims. I’m just glad they haven’t taken the pool ladder away yet....
do you ever listen to the sims soundtrack and cry? no? just me?
the first time I listened to this after few years, I almost cried. this game is too beautiful.
Me too, the memories hit me hard.
It's called nostalgia...
Thats a childhood slap in my face. wow.
One of the best game soundtracks ever imo.
Usually, when I have a list of chores or I have something that i need to work on. I picture myself as my Sim and complete the tasks one by one, accomplishing so much in any given day. The Sims is more than a life simulator, The Sims is a motivational tool that unlocks our hidden potential.
While doing my taxes, and listening to this, my brain be like: "maaaaaan, I hate being an adult." But we have to face reality... Sims' music always takes me back. I'm reinstalling that bad boy with all of the DLC. One good thing about being an adult is having the money you can spend without anyone telling you what to do with it. :D Only if I could find a complete brand new copy lol I remember waking up at 4 in the morning and firing up the family PC hoping my mom wouldn't hear the damn thing, I put my shitty earphones on and just play for hours until the inevitable morning sermon. I miss those days. I even remember seeing commercials of this at malls and just be so damn excited to go home! I'm not crying! You are!
Nothing could compare to the sheer classic & unforgettable aura of this. I was 7 when this came out 🥴 I’ll keep coming back.
I use this when I clean my house lol
Lmao! I do the same. It's so relaxing!
Cleaning room, dishes or drinking wine...
When this game came out in the year 2000 there was a computer shop in my local suburb that sold video games. We would go there after school and play the games on display and the Sims was one of them - we were obviously blown away. Well the dude who ran the shop was a father to a fellow school mate and he actually died of cancer and the shop closed. She had a really good name I can’t recall sadly. I remember she recited w poem at school and it was about her techy dad reaching her through email after death. All very sad… that’s one of the many many many memories this game bring back for me.
I love listening to the Sims 1 Soundtrack when I am working on Assignments or Studying for school its literally perfect! Thank you for this:) Sims 1 and Sims 3 are literally the best games out there!
Ive been playing the sims soundtrack for years now on and off. Your correct its great for studing, i personally use it for art or cooking lol
je viens de faire le ménage en écoutant ça ^^ C'est magique !!! Très motivant !
Yikes The Sims 2 > The Sims 3 any day haha.
@@Dazial1 Vbbnd
ME TOO!
I want this on vinyl. But no like, REALLY.
Me too, thatd be a great record to throw on
why vinyl
@@scrung has an authentic sound, if you research you will find it has the best sound overall.
Lmao i can just imagine peoples reactions like, wtf?
@@ChloeDust kahaha its the last record you'd think someone would throw on.
i genuinely believe this is the greatest video game OST ever made.
The first song gave me MAJOR feelings 🥹 man I loved this game. I miss being a kid
2:40:42 is The Humble Brothers - Superstar and I first heard it in The Sims Bustin Out and it is ridiculously amazing quality and a well produced song. It's probably my favourite song in the sims. I also love Build 1 & 2, they are so emotional.
how do you know its the humble brothers. I love this song
@@Katefanx3 It was on their album Cinematix. Also, look at their album In Game, there are songs from Sims 2 and the Urbz on that one.
@@jakey1306 Thanks!
20 Years ago. Complete nostalgia. My house, my room, my dog, my family...my country.
As a Brazilian, I can easily say that this soundtrack is very much like our "Samba" music style, mixed with a new-fusion Jazz style, it just hits really hard, easily one of the most iconic soundtracks of all time.
I would pay to watch an orchestra play this live
Fun fact: in the italian version of The Sims 1, they apparently forgot to insert neighborhood 1 e 2 track so I grew up without listening to these masterpieces. Nonetheless this I have goosebumbs goosebumps anyways
Might be my memory being defective, but I had the french version of the game and can't also recall neighborhood 1 nor 2 while I remember all the others.
@@ishakenjy8344 I think you'd remember them if they were in the game. but anyways the composers of the tracks are the same, so the vibe is the same!! chilsss
Yeah, in Europe tha "Jazzy" neighborhood 1 and 2 themes and the main theme of The Sims (neighborhood 3), weren't included on the game, and instead only the "Latin" themes would play. The audio archives for them are still in the game files and can be just put in the corresponding folder for nhood music. You can actually put any music! The game had several changes for different regions: in Europe we had different street styles, roofs and wallpapers for some houses; in Asia they had that plus different models for the characters, with mostly asian faces.
@@edumeleroverdu8509 yes exactly!!!
@@edumeleroverdu8509 I didn’t know about that! You taught me something
Playing this game on my PC back in 2002 was exhilarating. Being 7 or 8 years old, building houses, and having pure imagination of my Sims' lives with a great soundtrack made being a kid in that particular era great. Now that I'm an adult who's a musician (and loves music), I can't help but to appreciate this soundtrack even more.
Man, i miss my childhood, i hope i could going back in time just to play this game with the same feeling again 😢
Chills down my spine... I just began middle school when The Sims was released, more than 20 yrs later this music brings back everything, my old room, the desk (the kind with the cut out for the PC on the floor), the cheap ass PC and CRT monitor, Windows ME baby! It's incredible how music, especially this songs I probably listened to for hundreds of hours without realizing, have this "wormhole" time & space effect!
07:55 Neighborhood 3 is all my childhood! day & night playing The Sims :D
I miss the 1st sims
I want this era of video games to come back and it never will
The building music does not fail to give me heartache, just for the sheer nostalgia.
One day, The music you listen to while you play building games become The music you listen to while you do the CAD drawing. 😂😂😂
Thank you for this!! Now, let's bring all those nostalgic and funny comments from the old video.
Hehe. No, you are breathtaking! I'm down! :P
i am very blessed to be a gamer and play this game. because of the music, i started to explore musical instruments. this started it all.
The building and buy music is one of the best soundtracks I've ever heard. It instantly brings me back to my youth playing The Sims. Building and decorating houses, dreaming big, and stealing the woman from the richest family in the game. What a great time. Now, looking back as a building engineer, drawing buildings/houses for a living, I definitely think The Sims played a role in dreaming to have a career in this field. From time to time, I still look back at this period in my life, enjoying games like RollerCoaster Tycoon, The Sims, and SimCity 4, '90s TV shows, and cartoons. What a great time to have lived in. But The Sims is one of the major games in my life that I often reminisce about. The music, all those mood bars (sometimes it feels like those mood bars also apply to real life), just everything was right in that game.
Aaaah, brings me back to my childhood life where I never knew quarantine was a thing :)
Building Mode 1 has ALWAYS struck a chord with me. It’s just so charming!!!
Same here… Years ago I tried so hard to play that song on my crappy keyboard lol
56:10 Building mode 4 = instant goosebumps
Neighborhood4. I remember this song playing so vividly. I loved it, still do. Turning 30 this year - The Sims will always hold a very special place in my heart. So many teenage years were spent playing this game.
is it weird that some of these make your eyes water just because it reminds you of simpler (and happier) times 🥲
Real, that Memories.
Makin' Magic soundtrack is such a masterpiece! I listen to it everytime when i want to focus on something special! Thank you for sharing
This is the perfect soundtrack for cleaning the house and making dinner 😌
i remember staying up all night with nothing to worry about the next day, my biggest problem in life was building this home with this wonderful music - thank you for uploading
wish i could have began my engineering degree back then when this stuff was fresh, would have blown my mind to simulate what i was learning with newer and newer releases.
?
Music composed, played, recorded only by humans. Bring this back PLEASE - in games, TV, film..
Beautiful
The sims was my favorite fantasy adventrue game, imagine being able to own a house and have relatively stable job security. Everywhere is always hiring!
I remember bein a kid and going into build mode and just zoning out at the incredible piano bein blasted into my ears and completely forget I was even playing a game. I don't know who made this soundtrack or how much they were paid, but it wasn't enough.
