Original Title: TIL The iconic theme from The Legend of Zelda for the NES was arranged in one night because Nintendo composer Koji Kondo initially planned to use Ravel’s Boléro as the title theme for The Legend of Zelda, but had to change it because the song’s copyright had not yet expired.
And thank Christ for that, because Bolero on repeat for the length of that game would be pure hell.
