However, your cover is much more pleasing to the ears. A problem with the PC version is that it sounds a bit repetitive, and the fast bits you throw in really help to keep the piece interesting throughout.
So major props to you for this wonderful recording.
I will say that I do like the Piano Collections a lot, but for a different reason than I like this cover. The PC version sounds light and whimsical, and it makes me crack up a bit. I'm okay with the fact that it doesn't quite capture all of Kefka's madness, because I'm not a huge of fan of FF6. It just sounds good in its own way.
(ugh I ran out of room to finish this comment, I'll just post the other half in another comment...)
I thought the Piano Collections version was pretty cool, and then I saw this masterpiece. I'm not sure if I like the Piano Collections version much anymore. xD Sheet music would definitely be nice.
You said you have save files from the digital piano? Maybe you can send a download link for people and see which one of us can transcribe it first? =D I would like to have the file, anyway, just to see what I can do with it.
I have to agree with the comments here, THIS is what I wish they had done with this theme for the Piano Collections. I had mainly bought it to hear the Kefka theme, it`s always been a series best and I had not thought of looking it up on youtube to see if someone got it right..you did sir, YOU did!
Please, and I mean PLEASE, make sheets for this. This is the best arrangement of this song. I'm trying to figure it out myself, but just some of the quick parts are hard to catch. You do this song justice unlike... the piano collection..lol
@skumskilla Thanks a lot for your comment. You have to keep in mind that the Piano Collections versions are transformative, while my version is "only" a cover, but I appreciate your compliment nevertheless. About sheets, I unfortunately don't have any and still don't know how to handle notation software. But I did save files from my digital piano for this piece so it's possible to be accurately transcribed in the future by someone who knows how to do it. This might take a while though, sorry :(
@Verdegrand I have such software, if you'd like for me to give it a shot. Unsure whether your files will be compatible with my machine, though; I'm a Mac user.
I honestly thought this was just going to be another Kefka theme video, but then I remembered you're Verdegrand! Seriously, you added so much 'pazzaz' to this song!
Now THIS is the best piano arrangement for this theme. Even better than the original piano collections because it captures more of the in-game feeling!
You have MAD skills! That was for all intents and purposes; perfect!
I was amazed that you pulled off that difficult part between 0:34 and 1:00. Very impressive sir! Keep up the good work, because it is a joy to hear you play.
Chrono Trigger theme ost. Not sure how your random generator works or if it's even related to use comments but I decide to give it a try no harm in trying, thanks for the tunes much appreciated.
Another great arrangement in such a small time, wow!
I would like you to play something from the VVVVVV soundtrack by Magnus Palsson, maybe the song "Potential for anything", or "Pushing Onwards". You choose!
I am tempted to write something nonsensical instead of requesting and see what you come up with, but I really want you to play "Reqiuem" by Geinoh Yamashirogumi from the Akira Soundtrack!
Lol, you are an evil one ;) Since requests are still counting upon post, I request "fight 2" from final fantasy 4. I don't mean to request twice, but I really wanted to comment to Thelshter on this :), and also to avoid another "non-request" situation happening again. :)
Your skill with the piano is a rare and unique talent to be sure. I have only heard a fraction of your videos, but love each one from the very first moment you begin to play. I'd make a request if I hadn't read your infobox under the Somnus/Roxas fusion piece; do take care not to overtax yourself, friend.
AWESOME!! Better than the original, 500 stars!!! Someone needs to hire you! I request "fight 2" from final fantasy 4. It's the standard boss battle them for that game.
