Hylian Lemon - I like the start, the samples are nice. The strings after a minute are very good, I like them. The song has a good variation and the drums are also good, I don't have much to say against this.
Just64helpin - Nice piano, but a 'piano only' (with a little nice background piano) is a bit boring. Still, not bad for sure.
Chickenwarlord - Slow start, I don't like it. The song misses speed, this song is excellent to be played when I go to sleep. It has something. Still, nice songlength.

NeoS - Haha, funny happy trance. Try to make a qualifying entry next time, should be good.

just64: At times the source tune gets a little lost, but this also happens in chickenwarlord's entry. This one holds one's attention a little better, I think. I would've liked to hear it in ambient electronic, but there's not much you can do against the ebils of sickness.

chickenwarlord: The introduction of the theme at 0:14 was a cool idea, and I think you could have developed that more throughout the remix. Really, it ends up being a little boring and all-over-the-place.

Man, Hylian with his engaging arrangements. He certainly has fun here, giving some cameos to other famous Mario tunes here. Brassy style synths could definitely be improved and the accordionish thing sounds a bit weird. Life of a Goomba has a too many things going for it to not be first place.
Just64: I like liberties with the melody. But sometimes those background arps sound too heavy and overshadow the main theme.

ZOMG Shrooms: Very fun piece to listen to. Your piece deserves the name that mine did not.

It was kind of hard to make out the theme in Chickenwarlord's song (not impossible, though - I did spot it here and there) and the song seemed a bit too dreary to me. But maybe that was the point, since the original sounded so happy. Sort of a contrast.

Anyway, I thought Hylian_Lemon's was the best, followed by just64helpin's, and then Chickenwarlord's as last.

I was really hoping for more remixes of this song.

I would totally give Neos a vote on this one, if it were an option, he seemed to have fun with it!

Otherwise, not much to say about the others, went with Life of a goomba first, nice arrangement without any gripes from me.

Second is Monster's don't hurt mario, I always love just64's stuff, this is also a very nice arrangement.

Nice effort ChickenWarlord, put a little more effort in next time.
