They're the same song, like it or not. Not every YouTube upload of a song will sound exactly the same, especially if it's video game music. The upload of the original song seems to be of higher quality than the upload of the bootleg song. I say "higher quality" to mean literal audio quality here.

For another example, the real GilvaSunner's uploads of the Super Mario World soundtrack are extremely inaccurate to how they sound in-game. Let's say there's a bootleg version of Super Mario World that uses the exact same music as the original, but a YouTube channel has uploads of them more accurate to how they sound in-game. That doesn't mean the two games have different music at all.

It's worth noting that some consoles are quite difficult to extract accurate-sounding music from, which makes YouTube uploads still harder to rely on.
