The Black Mages 2nd Live Above The Sky - Vamo Alla Flamenco

[LoneDragoon90]

"KWEEEEEEH!" *digging* Depth: 67...52...41...28....12...2 OUT OF TIME

Me (knowing it's a chocograph): FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUU

[BoFuckingNanza]

@LoneDragoon90 Oh boy..... :D Memories.

[zdepapepa]

Damn, that bassist looks way too much like me. :-D

[ThaDudesAvlogger]

The best thing about this band is not that they play the music of final fantasy...but the keyboardist is the composer of the music they play...

Nobuo rocks!

[gearsjunkie]

They totally should have had two people sword fighting in Blank and Zidane's costumes on stage.

[friendlycakeasaurus]

was that uematsu on keyboard? holy crap

[TheTyrynir]

The other guitarist was using a petrucci

[kinirotz]

"KWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EH!"

Recieved potion.

Goddammit!!! Again!!!???

[ImperialWill421]

@kinirotz What ticked me off was digging on a deep down treause and only getting a tent/ore instead of a chocograph...

[kinirotz]

@ImperialWill421 yeah, im like diggin' fast and excited.... only to find a stupid ore...still... FFIX FTW!!!

[carnagegerman]

seriously.....one of them should have been on a good ol' nylon string.....flamenco or classical....still a good performance though

[WolfcastleX]

Received 10 000 Gil.

[KissMeImPunk]

Is that a Diezel amp head I see?!

[QuinnHynden]

Wow, i noticed 3 mistakes within the first 10 seconds after it really got heavy at 0:32

[OilyTower]

Bést Chocobo Song evar :D

Who is with me on A reunition of the mages?

They still have a ton of material to make epic remixes that would give us eargasm!

[garamonde]

The classical version on Distant Worlds is perfect for a ball or a dance-off.

[Jiji4434]

ugly!

[leviadragon99]

Ehhh, personall i find that solo in the middle a bit discordant...

[Minan3]

they should include this in the next Dissidia.

[Wrekognyze52]

12 assholes did not play ff9

[leviadragon99]

@Wrekognyze52

Well fuck you too.

I never played ff9 because I never had an oppertunity, that does not mean I voted down this epicness, nor does it make me an asshole.

I believe you're simply making the fans look like such.

[MrLou5]

@leviadragon99 heeey dude no need for fights, he is just making a joke

[leviadragon99]

@MrLou5

No, he's regurgitating a brainless, overused meme, throwing in an arbitrary insult for good measure.

[MrLou5]

@leviadragon99 it was not an insult, it indeed is a overused meme... but he just failed... so, no reason for further argumentation

[leviadragon99]

@MrLou5

"Asshole" is infact an insult, but yet, i agree that he failed, so let's leave things at that.

[psykoced666]

BIG

[NachanDesu]

*Falls over laughing*

They really did everything in this live. God I hated hearing that song over and over during the Chocobo Sidequest but hell they made it awesome.

[Gav229]

The guy murders the start :/

[penguinnator13]

11 hater that are bad gamer and don't like awsome stuff or epic music

[Diazt3r]

i wasn't impressed by the difficulty of the game but the music really was truly amazing. Its been like 6 years since i played this game? Still gives me goosebumps listening to the soundtrack.

[KuwaSai]

FUCK YEAH I JUST IMPRESSED 100 NOBLES. So this is the song during the scene huh? always turn off the music lol.

[Thecoolguy01]

@KuwaSai

what is wrong with you?

[KuwaSai]

@Thecoolguy01 well you gotta turn off the music to focus better.

[richythepianoman]

@KuwaSai Final Fantasy would never be final Fantasy without Uematsu's creations

[KuwaSai]

@richythepianoman I do know that. I turn off the music so I can concentrate better.

[richythepianoman]

This is Epic. Nobuo is godlike on that organ. Not to mention he composed this. What a fucking legend

[supepedayo]

コンサート行ってみてぇ～



[Kennyploed]

It's just epic.....

Nothing more to say about this.

[stokerx]

I love how he improvises instead of the flamenco solo. cool melody..

[physic4lgraffiti]

I WANT TO FUCK THEM

[MrMcConnon]

Black Mages rule!

[Thecoolguy01]

Nobuo Uematsu is the ,MAN

[killabee101]

true guitarist burn their guitar or wreck the stage he shoulda done atleast one of thos...

[letalis777]

kweeehhhh

[DukeHyphington]

Lead guitarist isnt in tune =(

[dragon1471killer]

the one playing the guiter looks like james may

[Intrigo91]

is that man at the piano nobuo uematsu??

[ZombieVONA]

Yep... that's him.

[phillebeau]

he kinda messed up the solo :s

[blackdeathmessenger]

I love how the lead guitarist makes it look like its nothing. His facial expressions are kinda funny too,lol. I wish I had his skill at guitar.

[mo389]

love it love it love it!, i just wish i could go see them live damn it!

i wish Nobuo did the music for 13, that way he'd prob fuck leona lewis of the game!

[Muriano]

A great song, with a special spanish taste

[sky726372]

吉他版的反而比鋼琴版的好聽耶

[Gustavoveg02]

acho q quiseram inventar demais nos arranjos de guitarra... mas a musica eh a minha preferida do ff9

[Ascellius]

sucks he fucks up in the beginning part after the drums start

[ilzaurusX4500]

Yeah, guitar's not in tone X(

[Mikels2000]

My favourite FF song ever.

[dan83524]

Legalzinha a musica.. Mas Aquele sólo rápido (2:15) .. é um lixo.

[killerxitu]

its nice to see there is a spanish like song in one of the best games of the history! its an honour! vamos alla flamenco!!!

[thebitchishungry]

ff ix is my favourite and this song kicks ass =D that guitarist is insane, what's is name?

[noelia1209]

Michio Okamiya. He's awesome indeed, too bad he has such horrible taste for shirts :P

[PencilShavings]

@noelia1209

he's good at what he does he has the earned the right to wear his god awful shirts.

[noelia1209]

@PencilShavings LOL. Amen to that, my friend ^^ Plus it'd be totally weird to see him in 'normal' shirts now ;)

[ViciousArcanum]

FFX=the best

FFVIII=underrated,second fave

FFVII=Awesome but a bit overrated

FFIX=to go from VIII to this was a major letdown but was still a great game

[stfb1055]

to me FFIX is the best than FF10 for some reason xD

[123Combine]

ffvii is the best game ever and one winged angel is insane!

[DarkShadowRage2]

Song is fucking awesome another favorite of FF9.

[MrDylaneric]

Best final fantasy ever imo. Maybe all the nastalgia talking. . . But it was my favorite by far. I think I re-played this one 10 times in two years when it came out. I dont have my old console anymore or I would be playing it now. . .

[AudonTomn]

Just download PSX and find FFIX online. that's what I did.

[MrDylaneric]

I allways seem to forget emulators exist.

Thanks for the reminder!

[Cyanakrli]

it's my favourite too!

the only thing that i don't like is the fact that you can bee killed in an instent if you arn't lucky.

and if you'r lucky the game becomes too easy.

(i could say why but my english is too bad to doo this)

[MrDylaneric]

I understand.

I spent many hours perfecting the characters to have all the skills possible.

I never managed to get the Excalibur II. :(

Kuja was still difficult.

Thats what made it fun!

[Cyanakrli]

i remember my uncounteble fights against ozma

he used meteor once and i was dead. every time i'm serrious!

i was able ti kill him before he used meteor once.

thats what i mean:

not lucky = meteor = game over

Lucky = no meteor = you win!

[wildfire3969]

HOLY SHIT

did you see that guy shred that guitar, EPIC!!!!!!

[Yushired]

HAHA un putain de raciste :@ jvais pas laisser passer ça! TrappedNmyself666 => die in your shit fuckin racist

xD voila mon magnifique englais mais c'est pour la bonne cause.

Vive Nobuo! :D

[newroi]

Chocobo digging! oh yeah!!XD a master of the 21st .great n.n

[ApollwnEL]

NOBUO UEMATSU 4 EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!

[KelThuzard]

Among the 100 guests present,

100 were impressed.

But Queen Brahne was most impressed.

The guests want an encore.

Redo the scene? Yes/No

Kweh.

kwehh..

kweeehhhh...

KWWEEEEHH!!!

[jougetsu]

[x]I got the item already.

[DarkDrasis]

How the heck did you get Queen Brahne "most impressed"? I only manage to get "quite impressed". What do you get if you manage to get her impressed?

[KelThuzard]

I got devil's luck with the commands (blank didn't tell me to press left or right).

once you take control of Steiner (or whatever name you've given Sir Rustalot), Talk to Queen Brahne and she'll give you a Moonstone (I think... can't remember exactly)

[3stasmu3rto]

Yes, if you can get "most impressed (100%) you can take Steiner and go to talk with the queen, She will give you a moonstone.

[DarkDrasis]

I think I got it even with quite impressed. I went to talk with Sir Rust-a-lot to Brahne and she gave me something, can't remember if it was a moonstone.

[3stasmu3rto]

It's a moonstone only if you have been goten the 100%, with other porcents you can get others objets.

(Sorry my poor english, I don't speak very well the lenguage)

[SamFisherCell]

Press all buttons correctly and everyone will be impressed, even queen Brahne. You'll get 10,000 gil and a Moonstone if you talk to Brahne as Steiner.

[Cyanakrli]

not exactly

i managed to hit the buttons corectly and i have made ist only to 90impressed.

so i think you have to do ist fast too

[Axiaon]

To get 100 out of 100 people, you have to watch the TV and press the comman ds fast! I mean like, absolutely no hesitation. As soon as the command pops up, you have to press it without having more then a second go by.

I remember doing it for my Perfect stats Excalibur 2 challenge.

[GebtMirHirne]

@KelThuzard I impressed Queen Brahne but just 95 guests. >_<

[DelMafiaso]

@KelThuzard i don't understand what you mean..care to explain?

[KelThuzard]

@DelMafiaso Vamo Alla Flamenco was used in the game Final Fantasy IX. On disc 1, there is a scene there where you're objective is to try to impress your guests and the queen with your swordplay. You play as Zidane here and also along with you is Blank who will shout out commands for you to press. His commands, along with your speed in complying with them increase the number of guests as well as claiming a prize from the queen.

[KelThuzard]

@DelMafiaso as for the "kweh" parts below it, they're the sounds the chocobo makes during the Chocobo Hot and Cold game, also in final fantasy IX. this music was used in those two mini-games.

hope it answers your question.

[DelMafiaso]

@KelThuzard  yeah.,..i thought you means real life not the game....xD

[Assessins20]

@KelThuzard ¡¡¡kueeeeee...¡¡¡

[Arez64]

AWESOME!

[Midgarelite]

i swear this is the best remake for a song ever the original is amazing but this just this just tops it all!!!!!

[RANDINO03]

Otro video que se lleva mis 5 estrellas, de mis canciones favoritas =3

[Elmrada]

omg lmao i love how nobuo was the pianoist xD i love ffix

[outlawkelb]

vivi!!!!!!!!!!!

song reminds of vivi charecter from final fantasy 8.

the little mage.

[NSysc]

don't you mean Final Fantasy IX ? xD

[outlawkelb]

oh yeah got confused there a bit. cheers xD

[NSysc]

haha cheers! x)

[xRhychux]

9 jackass

[outlawkelb]

oh mister shit for brains wants to go around youtube calling people jackass?

you youtube "whores" have nothing better to do? or your parents beat your ballz off? and thats why your so hostile,

[TNGfan8794]

lol

They should get lonlonjp to play with them! 

(He'd probably be a better guitarist anyway!)

[Elmrada]

right on!

[BlastoiseRichard]

Dude, totally!!

[Zshh]

They are awesome and Nobuo wooooooooow

[worldspiritda]

The guitar player is lucky to be in this band, his vivrato is terrible and he is not clean. This music deserves a better musician.

[aminudm]

he is one of the founder of the band. together with the other two keyboard players.

[xXdrummerdude529Xx]

I know I'm gonna sound stupid for this, but Nobuo is in the Black Mages?! lmao

He is AMAZING, even moreso now that I know this

[han003]

It is his band xD

[ZellDincht1226]

Fuck yeah, Nobou! He does wonderful. However, the guitarist (no offense) does a pretty mediocre job live. Studio version of this kicks ass though.

[bythenine]

how is he mediocre he is awsome. you should relise he is just an office worker.

[lancedeman]

Which means absolutely nothing if he practices somewhat to alot in his own free time.

I believe he does a mediocre job as well, he can probably perform better than that. Though his solo was great. ;)

[diggagenis]

i think he screwed the beginning up a bit but he's pretty awesome whatsoever......

even though i have to admit i like the studio version better

[Bateleur5]

The lead guitarist's shirt is bothering me...... o_0

[guitarGod734]

I hate this solo and it's ,out of key to top it off .

[bythenine]

you hate it because you dont understand good music much like most others

[g0p00urmum]

that solo was frkin mad!

[g0p00urmum]

that was a frekn made solo!!!

[KiyoTakamineKun]

Uematsu's solo = EPIC WIN!!

[rpgmusician]

the only thing i dislike about this was the guitarist's vibratos.. theyre way to fast and there is no emotion in them at all.

love the band and nobuo is still me hero, just my opinion tho.

[Planetwatts]

Mages Rock!!! Kenichiro's synthwork after Michio's solo is white hot. Probably my favourite Mages song. Please play Download!!!

[Rinikinin]

OMG! That guitar solo was SO AWESOME! Though, the one on the acoustic sounds nicer, but still, AWESOME!!!

[IPulledTheTrigger18]

NOBUO ROX MY SOX!!!!!

[Strife50]

Who gives a damn if it is out of tune?

it sounds bad ass !!

[Glitch064]

is that nobuo on the triple decker? Awesome.

[stefla]

ohhhhhh yes it is the god himself Nobuo Uematsu

[tuntar]

his solo during the bridge is in fact in tune asshole, his entrance is perfect and mellafluent to the standard ear. and yes he may go a lil overboard in the shredding but it still stays in tune, you have no idea what your talking about. listen to yem, or reba, or my friend my friend, or guyute by phish, youll hear a real composer in trey anastasio (not to take anything at all away from nobuo). but him bending out of tune as you call is not bending out of tune, he just flat out missed the notes.

[Turkaholic]

Lol I love how you get all worked up over it. Rather amusing.

[weizeggerpucca]

It amazes me how some people will never understand that a studio recording in most cases always sounds better, watching this on youtube might seem flat and dull to some but if you were there in the audience it would be different.

[rsgunnar]

HEY!!

NOBUO IS PLAYING!!!

[Nanakiismyhusband]

yeah, it's his band.

he's fabby as ever!

XD

[Zeld1122]

Yeah the guitar is bit out of tune, but not so much that it would cause any harm to standard listener. If someone says something against you, it's really not a reason to go in curse spree. That just tells about low conversation skills.

[ZaNMaToSaN]

I wish he would stop bending out of tune.

[r0bz0rly]

yeah, it's not BADLY out of tune but there's definitely something a bit flat there.

still (at the risk of changing the subject) it's better than dragonforce's valley of the damned live at graspop.

[alwynnan]

its nice.. :) gotta love it..

[Bloorane]

So if you don't think that this song is perfect, ou're a bastard who hate everything and have respect for nothing.

[drystoneus]

It's funny because it's true.

[drystoneus]

saunakoukku some of your previous post that I have been replying to have been deleted I see! I don't think anyone will miss them. All you good for is toilet humour and confusing microtone bends with guitar tuning. If the guitar was out of tune it would be out for the *whole* song. Insulting people who appreciate artists for their work shows how little respect you have for yourself.

[drystoneus]

saunakoukku:What a sad and pathetic life you must lead. You obviously have some kind of sick repressed anal fixation and a feeling people dont like you. And I can see why. If you need try to feel a glimmer of desperate superiority by going around spreading your bile I feel sorry for how your sick perverted little mind is clawing out for attention. Through you posts you have shown your true self is full of desperation and disgust and void of hope. That is you crime and that is your punishment.

[Agustinus26]

Indeed. I vote for you!

[EylkWroth]

the solo is so much better than on the CD

[DramatiChromatic]

yeah true! this track sounds cool.

u have to just ignore people like saunakoukku. what does he hope to achieve? I should think if the guitarists guitar was out of tune he would notice :) he is so cool.. even jimmy page made to odd bend slightly off.. just adds to the character!

this band sounds luuuuuuuuuusssssshhhhhh.

they do a sweet battle mode too if u want to check that out! o_O

[drystoneus]

This will may give your pedantic ears the illusion the guitar is out of tune in parts.

More importantly why would someone post a comment like "they're out of tune" on a video for people who like the black mages? You must have some feeling that no one listens to you so you have to go around complaining about videos to make yourself look special. Stop being such a wannabe and admit the mages are better than you will ever be.And as far as live recordings go, his tuning is ok and his playing rocks.

[saunakoukku]

I don't think I said the band sucked. I like them. You're just ignorant I guess. Sad fanboyism really. If you can't, by 40 seconds, hear the guitar is out of tune, you have brain damage. You do have brain damage either way, so I guess it shouldn't be an issue for you.

[drystoneus]

He uses vibrato and string bending all over the place. Obviously those things will vary the pitch produced it doesn't mean the guitar is out of tune. If you ignore the bends and possibly vibrato pitch variations and listen to the main hook where he frets without, you can here the guitar is bang in tune.

secondly nearly any keyboard programmer programs patches have 2 or more slightly conflicting tunings at the same time to give the effect of depth etc.

[drystoneus]

are you 12 years old? YOU are the one saying the black mages are out of tune you donkey.

This track rocks and when I hear you live onstage in an arena performing epic compositions instead of spanking your plank like a retard, then, you might not look like such a donkey badmouthing the mages you wannabe.

[drystoneus]

'you'are out of tune

[Intrigo91]

just awsome.. i love this song but this is just great.. but i think a flamenco should be played on an old wooden guitar.. 5**

[drystoneus]

really? and how do you expect it would be heard over the drums then smartstuff? ElectroAc? Bad choice. This sounds great.

[Intrigo91]

sorry i can't understand what you said

all i want to say is that this video isn't bad but i think a flamenco should be played on a normal guitar without electricity

[rage1110]

i love this too check out my final fantasy 9 walkthrough i just uploaded the mini game fight where they have this song in

[GrifReaper09]

Love this song!!!!

[EylkWroth]

sorry i didnt understand what you were saying.

[EylkWroth]

the guitar is tuned to a droped D with all other strings down a half step

[EylkWroth]

The band refused to play unless he played with them.

[Cloudstrife252Khvids]

lol i didnt realise nobou was actually IN the BAND!?!? XDDD

apart from the 1st "medieval riff" they were great in this.

[becksterABZ]

Hola!!!!!!!!! wonderful.

[Kaieh1234]

Nobuo is the one at 0:55 xD the darker haired and older looking one. lol Legenndd.

[sgj85]

Spain is in da house!

[mightyicecream]

the one at 0:55 :P

[XaldBalghostriped]

OMG MR. Nobuo Uematsy rox!!! XD

[azuwazu03]

Chocobo: KWEEEEHHHH?!!?!!!

[Aibit654]

Nobuo Uematsu's solo Rocks!!!

[cheatdath]

awesome

[TheonlyRmpG]

a friend of mine really looks like nobu uematsu

[rage1110]

thats nobu uematsu on keyboard

[stephenxzhu]

they call it an organ...

[RolandE86]

That IS an organ!!! It's not an Hammond but it still an Organ...It's a Korg Organ!

[HeX4869]

oh

i mean the main melodies

i never tried the solo

[BlindNarut0]

the lead guitarist kicks major ass!

[BlindNarut0]

the lead guitarist kicks major ass!

[mitchell2oo7]

doesnt any1 have the tab for the guitar solo is this?

freakin awesome :P

[HeX4869]

it's easy

you don't really need a tab for it

try learning it by ear

or get the piano sheet

[Razgriz013252]

man, Nobuo's just raping and pillaging that keyboard, WOO!

haha

[Riku72293]

nobuo could take any instrument and make it look like a total rocking out instrument

[Vivirandum]

To be fair, Jon Lord from Deep Purple pioneered rocking out on the organ :P Nobuo Uematsu says he's a big fan of Deep Purple, so I figure he gets some of his style from them.
