Remember those lazy afternoons as a kid, when you would come home from school and try to sneak in an hour or two of The Legend of Zelda before Mom made you start your homework?

As you were downing Fruit Roll-Ups and Ecto-Cooler drink boxes, you probably weren’t wondering when a classical symphony would finally get around to interpreting that game’s haunting 8-bit musical theme.

But sometimes it’s the things we never knew we wanted that we end up treasuring the most. That’s the feeling some Reddit users had while watching an orchestral performance of “The Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses” on Tuesday night’s The Late Show With Stephen Colbert (thanks to user Chikamaharry for posting a clip of it in Reddit’s Television community).

“Symphony of the Goddesses” is a traveling concert series and a symphony that incorporates the music from all the different game iterations of the classic Nintendo game franchise. The series is currently on tour through the end of the year, with upcoming US performances scheduled in Houston, Salt Lake City and San Jose, Calif.

As some Reddit users pointed out after watching Colbert appearance, the musicians can be just as giddy about the performance as the game fans listening to it in the audience.
