The Legend Of Zelda: Skyward Sword - Fi's Lament (piano & strings cover)

[20114D]

@acuity1980 /watch?v=TYhKG1wnfxo I guess someone already did it!

[acuity1980]

@20114D i know that one already. It´s not matching with the original song. yes, i am picky xD but nevermind ^^

[20114D]

@acuity1980 Oh, I see after listening to it. I haven't had any extra time this weekend, but I'll see what I can do, no promises. Btw, I just realized that you posted this video before I posted my transcription. Did you figure out the song yourself and just find my sheet music later?

[acuity1980]

@20114D No worries. i know how it is about requests. I get a lot of them too, and most of the time i´d like to accept but just dont have the time. so i understand that you cant promise anything. And now you really got me wondering with the sheet music and upload dates O.O

I am certain that i found your transcription on the internet before (dont ask me where, i cant remember)

If i would have found the sheets on your channel, i would have posted a link to your channel instead of only your name

[acuity1980]

@20114D so unless you uploaded the sheet music on mediafire before you posted your video, we have a real mystery here =O

One thing is for sure though: i didn´t play this by ear. I used your transcription, hence the description mentioning your name ^.^

[20114D]

@acuity1980 One possibility is that you found it on the forums in NinSheet Music? I had it there around the time you posted this video

[acuity1980]

@20114D may be. well i don´t really remember where i got it from. I just googled it and found it ^^

[crackkatt]

beautiful :') love this game so much

[acuity1980]

@crackkatt thanks!!

[cristinadiaaz]

ooooooooooooh god :C marry me? :D dfghjkl hahaha please make a tutorial, yeeeees? please):

[acuity1980]

@cristinadiaaz ROFL

My gf would like to object xDDD

and as i said to the other person, i don´t have time to make tutorials =/

[acuity1980]

@cristinadiaaz oh, but thanks for the offer though.. xD

[MrJstone2000]

Tutorial please lol

[acuity1980]

@MrJstone2000 sorry.. but no time for making tutorials

[20114D]

@MrJstone2000 If you download the free program Synthesia, you can watch a midi of the song play and see the keys as the song plays and slow it down or whatever. This is Adrian Currier, the one who transcribed this song, btw. I can send you the MIDI if you want to try out Synthesia

[MrJstone2000]

@20114D i already had  synthesia but i messed it up and i cant upload midi files to it

[20114D]

@MrJstone2000 Have you tried re-installing it?

[MrJstone2000]

@20114D no

[20114D]

@MrJstone2000 My copy of Synthesia stopped working too, but when I uninstalled and then installed it again it worked again. I can put up a video of Fi's Lament on Synthesia

[MrJstone2000]

@20114D it would be appretiated

[20114D]

@MrJstone2000 Unfortunately, I tried and I couldn't record video of it. My computer isn't fast enough to record full screen Synthesia?

[20114D]

@MrJstone2000 I'll message the MIDI to you

[acuity1980]

@20114D Oh Hey, Adrian!

Thanks for the superb transcription!

[20114D]

@acuity1980 You're welcome :) I was really happy when I noticed that your superb rendering of this song was based on the sheet music I had put out there

[acuity1980]

@20114D Well, thank you for the compliment! any plans on other transcriptions? i could really need a specific one from the game "Braid" ^^

[20114D]

@acuity1980 Which song?

[acuity1980]

@20114D "Lullaby Set"

i would REALLY much appreciate a transcription for piano and viola *drools*

I realize the song is long and probably much much more work to transcribe than this one, but i thought i just might ask xD

[DTMonkey92]

This sent chills down my spine! Very nice cover :)

[acuity1980]

@DTMonkey92 thanks a lot! chills down your spine you say. that´s an achievement :)

thank you again ^^

[paulaleon14]

thank youuuu!! i love this song

[acuity1980]

@paulaleon14 you are welcome :)

[calebthellama]

your.......omg



[acuity1980]

@calebthellama thanks for the compliment, i guess ^.^

[adnigcx]

Really beautiful! :D!

May it be possible you could make a transcript of the orchestra theme? would be really nice :3

thanks anyway!

[acuity1980]

@adnigcx Thanks a bunch!

And i am sorry but the little free time i have is being used up by other songs/projects/learning violin and other stuff already. Sorryyyy

[adnigcx]

@acuity1980 no Problem :D

I'll figure it out by myself :)

thanks anyway!

[DonDisainer]

I Love You



[acuity1980]

@DonDisainer ^.^ lol, thanks xD

[zeldaxsinger14]

Sooo beautiful!



[acuity1980]

@zeldaxsinger14 thanks :)

[UprisingGrand]

Great performance and I was wondering if you take request? If so then I would to see you play lord ghirahim's theme from "Skyward Sword". It's such a powerful piece, just let me know if you can.

[acuity1980]

@UprisingGrand thank you very much!

and i consider requests more like suggestions. Meaning that i cant promise i will play it. It always depends on how much i like the song, if there is sheet music, if i have to transcribe it and if it´s worth the effort and time you know. It would be a great start if there were sheet music ^^

[UprisingGrand]

@acuity1980 You do have a point because who wants to play a piece just because of requests instead of enjoying the song yourself. Thanks anyways.

[Fannystar10]

Man You Rock ! Is the best Piano cover I've ever seen!¿think you can do a tutorial ?

[acuity1980]

@Fannystar10 Thank you very much, i appreciate it :D

Sorry for the disappointing answer, but it´s a no. I simply don´t have the time for doing tutorials. Too much other stuff keeping me busy ^.^

[AlejoCif]

The greatest soundtrack for a videogame. Awesome performance.

[acuity1980]

@AlejoCif thank you very much :D

[warriorblad]

Man, Triforce is in you! I pray the godess for more views

[acuity1980]

@warriorblad Lol, thanks =D

[soragamer72]

I actually miss fi even though she was annoying

[BirdieGoBoom]

Absolutely beautiful. You captured all of the emotion of the original song perfectly.

[acuity1980]

@BirdieGoBoom Thank you very much! i am glad i achieved that :)

[iBeyblader]

This video deserves waaaay more views.

[acuity1980]

@iBeyblader I am glad you think so :)

[MissFaaaaay]

@iBeyblader yeees thats exactly what i thought, i frist heard it. amazing job alex :D!!!

[acuity1980]

@MissFaaaaay thaaanks Fay :)

[dragoner243]

[vonara]

[acuity1980]

[vonara]

@acuity1980

[acuity1980]

@vonara wie gesagt, kein problem ^^

[waaikana]

I wish my gf loved Zelda xD you're a lucky man =p and this is beautiful. Also, thanks for showing your hands playing it (which is actually pretty logical xD) , now I can learn it too! ^^

[acuity1980]

@waaikana Ha! thank you very much :D

and yeah, it might seem obvious that i show my hands playing, but i could also just show a picture the whole time and not bother about making a video xD

so, you are welcome ^.^

[jaredsuck666]

And, if you want, I have a request, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, The main theme please!

[acuity1980]

@jaredsuck666 that would be epic if done right. Need to investigate on that one. I can´t promise as usual

[jaredsuck666]

@acuity1980 

[jaredsuck666]

Dude, still no add. :(

[acuity1980]

@jaredsuck666 what do you mean with still no add? maybe i am too tired atm xD

[jaredsuck666]

@acuity1980 I mean on PS3, and yes the Skyrim Theme Song would be epic, as epic as the game!

[acuity1980]

@jaredsuck666 oooh that add xD i´m sorry. i am mostly online with the xbox. But you can send me a request. I think my psn name is acuity. without the 1980. next time i go online i will accept ^^

[PizzaHutGirl4eva]

[acuity1980]

@PizzaHutGirl4eva i don´t know ^^ i saw someone else play it on youtube and then found sheet music and played it xD

[SuddenlyIseepickmeup]

[acuity1980]

@SuddenlyIseepickmeup thank you very much :)

and yes, download link in the description box as of now ;)

[acuity1980]

@joydreamer thank you very much <3

i am curious to know what will happen when this song plays. i wonder if you will cry when you reached the part ^^

[PownagePlay]

This is truly amazing Alex. You play the piano like a god. You can make the simplest songs sound amazing. Great work on this one, I liked this one especially because I myself am a Zelda fan!

Is it possible you could send me the piano sheet at:

luca.duran@hotmail.com

If it's no trouble of course, if you can't, that's cool! I'll learn to play this some other way. It's always great to listen to you play. Thanks Alex! :)

[acuity1980]

@PownagePlay sheet music is already in your inbox ^^

and thanks a bunch for the compliment, it seriously means a lot. Highly appreciated :)

[Roxann308]

So beautifully played, Alex - you express deep sadness in this but courage also. Skillful and artistic. :)

[acuity1980]

@Roxann308 :) thank you so much! it´s a very simple piece, not much skill required actually xD but of course i appreciate your comment :)

[acuity1980]

@triforceisthetruth to be honest, i don´t know. I don´t even play the game, i just watch my gf play it all the time xD and i think she is not that far in the game yet where the song plays

[triforceisthetruth]

@Zexion04 thank you very much! but what is epic about it? that´s the first time someone says my video editing is epic :D

[Zexion04]

@acuity1980 well it's a general remark for all you videos, the way you add strings or put other little videos in your video is awesome

[acuity1980]

@Zexion04 well thank you :)

Your playing is so beautiful and sweet =) I like specially the parts where the strings go along with the piano ^^

[acuity1980]

@LezinhaMM thank you my friend! i also like those parts. i almost didn´t add them. i had the sheets before i listened to the original song. then after i recorded i listened to the original recording and noticed there are strings :D

[elleconnait]

[acuity1980]

@elleconnait thanks so much!

[ShadowShinto]

Das ist so klasse qq Ich wollt schon immer mal ein Zelda stück spielen. Wieso mach ichs nie >> Gott ich will mehr Zeit für Musik ^^

Ich mag den Hall hier seeeehr ^-^ So am träumen

[acuity1980]

@ShadowShinto lol geht mir genauso mit anderen spielen oder soundtracks oder whatever. dann später seh ich so auf youtube wie andere leute natürlich wieder schneller waren und dann denk ich so: hmmm.. warum hab ich das nicht schon vorher gemacht? xD

egal. danke für deinen kommentar! hall find ich auch ziemlich geil. und die noten haben ausdrüklich gesagt der fuß soll die ganze zeit auf dem pedal liegen bleiben ^^ hat man auch nicht oft

[UniqueGeekFreak]

"When the light of the goddess’s sword shines bright, the great apocalypse will wake from its long slumber.

Do not fear, for it is then that a youth, guided by my hand, shall reveal himself in a place most sacred.

The youth will be guided by one born of the blade - on who is also youthful in likeness yet wise with knowledge immeasurable."

May the blessings of Hylia be with you :)

[acuity1980]

@UniqueGeekFreak thank you very much for this epic comment!

[UniqueGeekFreak]

@acuity1980 bitte schön mein freund :)

you play this piece very beautifully

[SakikoSenpai]

mein gott.. von allen spielen hat meiner meinung nach Zelda mit die schönste Musik, die einem auch am besten in erinnerung bleibt. So simpel und so schön! und es hätte das mal wieder niemand besser nachspielen können als du ^^ perfekt <3

[acuity1980]

@SakikoSenpai Saki! Danke für den ersten kommentar ^^

und bei dem spiel ist auch ne cd bei mit 8 Zelda songs von einem orchester aufgenommen, hammergeil!

[SakikoSenpai]

@acuity1980 yes man, ich war mal wieder erste xD Nach so langer Zeit...

Aber das mit der CD klingt echt cool O__O Ich liebe es, wenn sie bei spielen auch den Soundtrack bei packen x3 sollten die öfters tun

[acuity1980]

@SakikoSenpai Die CD ist jetzt der direkte soundtrack von dem Spiel skyward sword, mehr so eine kollektion von den beliebtesten Zelda songs überhaupt. ist schon fett.. bei einem von den liedern muss Joy immer übelst weinen am ende weil es einfach zu epic ist ^^

[SakikoSenpai]

@acuity1980 ist ja noch epischer!! :0

[acuity1980]

@SakikoSenpai korrekt :D
