Dork romance: A Mario Kart love song

You can keep your Marvin Gaye, Westlife and Whitney Houston love songs. This Valentine’s Day, I only want to be serenaded with one romantic jingle.

The Mario Kart Love Song

The song is a YouTube sensation, written by a gaming fan who incorporates his love for Mario Kart with the object of his desire.

Lyrics like “I’ll pause this game, so our love will never end” and “no one will touch us, if we pick up a star” bring a smile to the face of even the most hardened anti-romantic.
