Now Playing: What Should Be In A Super Mario Bros. Sequel?
Black previously found himself on the Billboard Hot 100 as one-half of Tenacious D with the song The Peak of Destiny in 2006. That jam topped out at No. 78 on the chart.
The Super Mario Bros. Movie directors Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic talked to GameSpot about creating the ballad. They revealed that Peaches went from an idea to a full song in days, with Black contributing a verse on top of other tweaks.
At the global box office, The Super Mario Bros. Movie is nearing $700 million. That makes it the highest-grossing video game film ever. The animated flick from Nintendo and Illumination is also the biggest box office hit of the year so far.
