Battlefield 1942 and BF2 Theme - Play! A videogame symphony

[sdowncat]

The solo was super amazing! But it had nothing to to with any of the rest of the song so there was really no point at all.

[MRrailaway]

STUPID SOLO D: rest is good :)

[DonStelz92]

@MRrailaway the solo kicks butts!

[drmanian]

Careful RIAA might sue for infringement!

[gamerdude746]

MEC part was boss.

[eusonic]

great song, but 1:43 WTF??

[DrKnockOut99]

you dont even hear the tamborine lol

[Yendaa]

On the wide shot, the guy playing the tambourine looks like dracula.

[Donpedro901]

Reverse engineering of a musical sheet. Fantastic!

[sdfsadfkwejfoiqjeiqj]

epic.. this remind me my old memories...

[maisteri]

How long is this fucking solo?! Bullshit. Loved the beginning tho

[pkersoul]

this theme is like fuckin iphone..nothing will ever beat it anymore

[t3hslowpoke]

@pkersoul Yeah, only difference is: iphone is shit for sperm eaters and BF is win.

[Wecoman1]

very nice soundtrack and game

[fullyAsianeric]

BAhahaha I love the guy whistling to the MEC

[thepatri0ot]

this makes classic cool...

[88KoKonuts]

5:09 Epic MEC theme that I ever heard =D

[BumperSticker95]

Now THAT is how you play a tambourine.

[baha300]

Amazing theme, absolutely love it. But I have to say that solo doesnt kind a fit into the theme, as its definitely needs to be performed by orchestra

[frisko129]

battlefield 2010 lawyers of Jusice

[tifosorossonero1]

quest canzone rimarrà per sempre nella mia mente

[iAmirx]

I actually like the solo somehow..

[superlukko]

BF rulez game and SONG!

[TheRetroZombie]

I use to be in Band but hated it after 3 years. I was a trumpet player.

[Gibson467]

Power of the Norwegians :D:D <33

[DimSimCard]

i just cant believe that this one orchestra play like all game theme songs, Luv these songs(sorry but i have to agree with FieryRam123 the solo did put me off a bit, BUT fking BEST MUSIC EVER

[PCGAMEfreak]

Didn't care too much for the solo

[Morphium14]

awesome!!!

[gwalchafed]

nice :)

[jacksonboarders]

That Drummer is fucking INSANE!!!!

[MoonSha]

drum solo is stupid

[xXxQuadCoreGamerxXx]

very nice *_*

[gulko0885]

Nice I were also watching it but they said that filming was not allowed lol im gonna put out the same song but no live filming just the song (Battlefield Featuring Rony Barrak) so watch it!

[ostaterules1012]

that is so fricken awesome

[nexxam1011]

Amazing and... kringkastingsorkestern? (omgrofl at what that means in swedish xD / does it mean the same thing in norwegian?) although silly named they are epic.

[Glennj08]

Kringkastingsorkestret (KORK) (etablert 1. september 1946 i Oslo), er NRKs orkester, opprinnelig et 24 manns orkester satt sammen av Gunnar Knudsens radioensemble og Øivind Berghs Bristol-orkester. Øivind Bergh var Kringkastingsorkestrets faste dirigent fra starten i 1946 til sin avgang i 1976. Kringkastingsorkestret hadde sin første storhetstid i radioens gullalder med den ukentlige Meloditimen i en årrekke fra Store Studio,

[tylerichards]

Fucking amazing.

[ImmaLetYouFinish02]

Can someone please please please send me link for the piano sheet for this? I really want to learn how to play this...

O.O;

[Holydiver2107]

lol ^^

[nborns]

By ear.

[rainor12]

yeahhh!!

[Dillinger128]

im suprised that WMG hasnt tried to remove this

[W4fflemonger]

@Dillinger128 It's cause they like it too much tbh.

[MrLaser77]

haha just watch Rony Barak's head move around during his solo. It looks like he is having a siezure. Great video. Great song.

[xXfalafelXx]

I just wish they'd left out the BF2 theme "remix" and kept the entire 1942 theme. I mean the never theme is cool but it's nothing compared to the original

[GrandElemental]

I am not a huge fan of fps-games, but I really like this theme. It's so powerful and emotional. =)

[mollyrulz9999]

Yeah, agree. The Medal of Honor theme has a bit more emotion IMO

[Spetznaz]

1:44 to 4:55 WTF?

somebody shot that mother fucker!!!

[darkyphantom]

the guy suck

[Dimension3500]

@Spetznaz ROFLMAO!!!!

[mastachief1994]

less gay tambourine more actual orchestra plzkthxbai

[schfiftyfivehundydoo]

the solo guy looked like Mac from it's always sunny in philadelphia lol

[Glennj08]

It was just a solo guys! It doesnt have any thing to do with bf 2 or 1942 =S.. Thats why u havent heard it in bf :P.. It was a ok solo. It was kind a show of from barrak :)

[mgarandsniper]

@Glennj08 that was a great solo

[magicalpoop]

Cool solo, what does it have to do with BF2?

Middle east theme? I played BF2 and 1942 like mad. His solo didn't remind me of my BF2 experiences at all.

It went from flying around in 42' aircrafts and going on the ground with just your single bolt action rifle to some cool solo you'd expect to hear in a high end espresso hipster cafe...

[darkislandfilms]

amazing

[xFENRISx]

Very nice.

[rmf99]

The solo part was set in the BF2 "mood", I can't explain, it reminded me of BF2 for some reason.

It wasn't a good solo, but at least it had an "Arabic" scent to it.

[BrowleeCrack]

i think the solo part was a division from 1942 to bf2

[sharkzkk]

Fucki'n GREAT !!

[FieryRam123]

No offence but the solo kind of ruined the song.

My opinion, No questions.

[jackpipsam]

@FieryRam123 the solo is the BFBC2 theme

[NAMLegolas]

@jackpipsam Nope it's not. BC2 and BC1 had different themes.

[Glennj08]

@jackpipsam

BC2 wasnt even released at this time when I filmed it. So it cant be bc2 =)

[Glennj08]

@jackpipsam

BC2 wasnt even released at this time when I filmed it. So it cant be bc2 =).

[Puggy8D]

@jackpipsam Way off.

[Puggy8D]

@jackpipsam Way off, the BC2 theme is "The Storm". This was a solo created by the musician.

[TheFinalView]

@FieryRam123 fully agree.

[Sojk65a]

@FieryRam123 I agree. The solo was cool and all but it just didn't fit in.

[Polyphem999]

Rony Barak sucks

[Dillinger128]

badass!

[duvessadrakul]

Hey, HeeyMomma i will see you on battle field 2 i have it, my characters name is BriannaA77

[Jenes007]

luv this sorta music!!

bf2 ftw!!

[shannyfromwow]

Paperclown, your a retard. Do you know how much skill it takes to do something that fast to a coherent beat and to the style of the music? Its near impossible, he is a legend.

[HeeyMomma]

Omg i have to install Bf2 right now :D

Best War Game Ever..

[Mazza4Azza]

Greatest Game theme tune in the history of war games

[timyfin]

i could go more visit opera house if music always like this :)

[plainlake]

ok, i would never think that the battlefield theme could be played just with percussion.

[BezanDarro]

That is called the golden theme.

[Th3rm022]

The best OST for the best game of the world

[w2228h]

lol i know this song

[AngryAnt0]

The greatest song ever composed for a video game... Period.

End.

[bud5mac]

No it's not

End.

[lolinternetslol]

Opinions, lol.

End.

[ChupenmelaTodos]

It is pretty awesome. I'd say it ties with some Zelda songs, though.

[Bazajt]

Off to see them at Globen on Thursday. Can't wait.

[meerkat1954]

Very nice!

[Grikkle]

they're awesome!

[PrickIttwice]

any1 knows if there going to come to malmo anyway? ^^ im damn coming!

[Spasskij]

Well this is the norwegian Orchestra so... I guess not.

[R3D4X]

PLAY! Kommer i år igen! Men denna gång i globen!

[mangotanga]

[altfut]

[lillesnusnor]

I have gotten ticket to their concert in Oslo, Norway 20th of march:D im as happy as a child on christmas eve:D

[gravedigger032]

odličan video da čovek ne poveruje šta je potrebno i koliki broj ljudi da se snimi deo pesme koji se čuje dok učitava šemu hahaha još jednom odličan video!!! 5+

[DiatheMoon]

omg, omg, omg!!!

[seb8604]

I'll put it this way regarding 1942/2142 - BF 1942 theme was better, but 2142's theme was played with better acoustics and the french horn/trumpet part at the beginning sounded better. Just my 2 cents.

[wmkboba]

sounds more like BF2142, but u can tell its 1942

[434ggftr]

bf1942-->best theme of all video games ever.......epic....LEGENDARY !!!!

A new long version should be make, like bad company style, but longer

[Piter21061992]

better not! bad company theme is worse than this one- BF1942 rocks 4ever!

[xXRASHEEDXx]

NICE!

[Akugagi]

aww that drum-solo:ing ruined the thing

[cripticstone]

yeah it was a bit long

[quasar953]

If anyone else is gonna trash talk about video games then please GTFO.

[wengdoodles]

love BF1942 woot

[baggen1337]

i rly enjoy to see these things live, rly impressive how all these instruments and ppl work together, love it

[WarGamerHistorian]

Again Dr.Suess made up the word "nerd" you 3-year-old!

[Leopardipzg]

Why didn't they have a video of BF1942 running like while playing BF2 theme?

[Slychee2]

Gotta Love this theme brings me back to the 1942 good ol days...love it

[ERRORFINDINGNAME]

this is the best theme i lovee it :D

[Jaramo1]

if it wasn't a theme song of a video game, would your comment be any different?

[superdee27]

yes

[eldrad9999]

From the guy who has Runescape videos on his page...and Neerds? you mean "Nerds"

[superdee27]

i do not atleast have hitler on my user

[aandfchiicc]

im surprised you could actually comment more than 2 words. hense the word "nerd" doofus

[superdee27]

fuck you

[MrTennek]

My, how very articulate of you.

[WarGamerHistorian]

You do know Dr. Suess made up the word nerd, so what are you 3?!

[simoninf]

too good

[BoBByKlaDDkaka]

I just like this song <3!@ Get some flashbacks when i hear it :P

bf 1942 still owns all other bf games, in my opinion ^^<3

[rudyeilabouni]

the drum is called dorbukka

[Staubtier]

Sorry, but the correct name is Darbuka ; )

At first i thought the drum could be a Djembe.

But now i think u are right. It´s seems to be a Darbuka. Best regards.

[rudyeilabouni]

i know ut i dont think that this is how they right it.

[ginogrz]

Brings back great memories from the peak of both games. Epic.

[jl9228]

to all of you people, this song started from the true classic: battlefield 1942, not any other battlefield..

[RedikCZE]

Absolute Incredible! I dont like BF but music is Awesome!

[fbazzoun]

long live Rony Barrak, long live Lebanon

[kekospain]

Sencillamente FANTASTIC !!!! Esta es la banda sonora de mi vida !!!  Genial, genial, me quedo con las ganas de escucharla en una sala de conciertos. El tema es fabuloso !!!

Kekospain.

[Residenteviltrilogy]

haha whistleing :D to battlefield 2 theme you did

[Csp499]

Oohhhh, man, they should've put Last Vanguard (BattleField 2142 theme) in there...

[gla300]

the small drum is called Trunba or tarabuka all the same...anyway its an Arabian drum which is mostly used in Syria and Lebanon...

that drummer looks like an arabic guy

[fbazzoun]

the drum solo was the best, rony barrak is the best drumer in the world

[SoulizGash]

insane movements there!!!!!!! amazing

[XtremeCold]

AMAZING!

but the drums!!!!!!!!!!!! Kill that african...

there is no drums in bf1942 ffs stupid....

[BiffExploder]

the drums started playing when they went from 1942 theme to BF2 theme and BF2 theme DOES have drums.

who's stupid now?

[XtremeCold]

Biff I know there are drums but the SOLO he did just drums -.- totally stupid...

[machrtin]

i think he meant the tambourine in the beginning btw?

[minitoki]

it's not an african drum =P it's a tarabuka somthing ;P used in south eueope and parts of asia i think...

[TheOriginalMaverick]

i think the solo is great, like frickin amazing, just way to long.

[shorinjiryuu]

どうしていいゲームをころした？

[FlamerK6]

damn whats that drum solo? it destroys the whole atmosphere!

[shorinjiryuu]

fucking solo... stupid solo is stupid

[xevian]

Lmfao towards the last 1/3 I was waiting for it, was expecting the theme for BF2, but the MEC loading song much much better for variation :D

[KairiFreak]

This is totally 1942 music. 2142 just has similair music but more... rockish.

[DotMan]

This right here folks is the Theme of the game that started it all, Viva la Battlefield 1942.

[PeterD2S]

I didnt like the drum solo, didnt feel like battlefield

[Viper271980]

sounds like 2142 music....

[machrtin]

you never played 1942, did you

[CMDRFandragon]

I like the 2142 theme until in the video it turns into the titan battle and the BF theme music stops...The nteh MEC theme sounds pretty cool to

[Cha0sLord93]

cool

[Borateen]

I really wanted to hear the menu music... w/ the slow beat also from BF2.

[gamerati]

when it will come to Germany? xD

[gamerati]

dont know, never?^^

[flyworld3]

when will it come to hong kong?

[Loghras]

Uhm...ok I never heard that drumming part in BF 1942...weird...

[Glennj08]

Uhmm that was a showof from barak himself.. To show what he can do with his instrument..

Thats why..

[aztraliz]

No, it is how the starting sound in Battlefield 2 is;)

[liammcl]

uh...aztarliz...no it's not...

[liammcl]

uh...aztarliz...no it's not...

[aztraliz]

It is, It's the original starting sound of Battlefield2, but its not in the Battlefield2 game intro...

[liammcl]

It's the Battlefield 1942 themetune.

[gamerati]

Nice nice nice!

[marjak92]

Amazing.

[Fleet11sd]

[vic8571]
