Hey fellow goo-ers. I'm a bit late with latching onto the Goo fandom, but glad I made it here! Here's my contribution to WoG: Piano-solo sheet music! I'm still in the process of arranging the songs (by ear), but it's fun having a melody as addicting as Impale Sticky stuck in your head.

EDIT: All songs are arranged-- download at http://goo.SebastianWolff.info or below:

World of Goo Piano Sheet Music [PDF]
World of Goo Piano Sheet Music [ZIP] (contains MIDIs and original Sibelius files)

Feedback is always welcome -- I'd love to know what you guys think of it so far! I hope to perform these myself - as soon as I have the other 3 songs arranged and posted for y'all. I'll have it all posted on my Youtube account More info here: http://goo.sebastianwolff.info/

This is fantastic!


Could you keep doing these?  I'd love to learn to play the other songs, though they mostly wouldn't sound the same on the piano at all.  Maybe the Polka one in the Tumbling level in chapter one?

I'll have to look through the soundtrack.  Some songs are great but might not sound nearly as good on a piano.  Thank you very much for these!  (I hope that you take requests!)

Hey that's cool! Just had a play through Impale Sticky.

Two small adjustments: Bar 14 I think left hand should switch from Gb to Ab halfway through the bar. Bars 17, 21 and 31 the right hand F should be either E or G.

Thanks for the feedback so far!

@davidc: Good ear! I fixed some of the harmonics you mentioned- it seems I was wrong, even with looping the song in the background...

I saved my favorite for last. Flying Machine... not really because it's my favorite, but because it's the hardest. I've figured out the dynamics and melody; now just for more interesting harmonics. Here are the latest two additions:

Oh, and @Wetterdew: yup! I do take requests, although usually have little time to complete them. Also, I'm very lazy.

Yay!  More!!!!  I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hmm...Could you do Wind Through the Willows?  It might be ashamed to be played on my awfully out-of-tune piano, but I'd love to try it nevertheless.

It's hard to choose.  Many of these songs seem like they'd lose a lot without the instruments that play them in the game.  I don't know, for example, if Strategoo would sound nearly as good without the mechanical sounds in the background or the chorus.  The Red Carpet might just seem slow and dull on a piano--the instruments give that one life (it is a great song, but it gets its fashion-walk-style from the way it plays).  I think that Wind Through the Willows might work. Smiley Thank you very much!!

Aaand last post! All six songs are now online and downloadable as a Zip Archive or a single Adobe PDF.

Last addition is Flying Machine:
Sibelius
Adobe PDF
MIDI

More info: http://goo.SebastianWolff.info/

@Wetterdew... hm, question. This "World Of Goo Unofficial Soundtrack" thing sorta has more than six songs - around 25 (going off the YouTube video count). Also, the naming is quite a bit different ("Flying Machine" is "Wind Through the Willows," for example). However, the 6 songs I have appear to be the main themes/motifs. Noowwww... should one (I) go about arranging all 25 songs from the game?

Really well done mate!

Setup a paypal account, i'm sure there are at least a few people who would donate some money for the time you spent doing this.

Nice job!

Thanks again! I do actually have a paypal account - linked on my website - but I don't arrange for profit. I arrange awesome music so others can enjoy performing the music. </idealism>. But yeah, arranging is mostly practice, learning from professionals to improve my own compositional styles. Now, for composing things I do charge...

Can you please arrange just one more?? It's the one in this video... I figured out the melody on my piano but i really can't get the harmony going and it's my favorite song from the game...here's the video:

Thank you so much for doing this!

Sure, here's Kaptain Polka. A short and fun piece to play. I kept the melody separate in another staff, since I fiddled a bit with the harmonics for the piano solo. Sigh. I wish I had more hands; had to cut so many nice instruments due to lack of pentadexterity.

On another note, I've modified the other ones a bit, added fingering and a notated a few things a bit nicer. Happy playing and happy New Year!
