[himez123]

Wow! Awesome!

[N0oDLX]

Dude this is so awesome! Instant flash backs for me! :)

[17blackdream]

Wah tellement de nostalgie quand je vous écoute! s'est beau a en pleurer^^ merci pour cet agreable reprise que tu nous offre

[AqueleBusa]

Love the reprise of the main theme in the end, with the electronic beeps. The whole thing was sublime, but that just sealed the deal for me...

[DrPerki]

This is amazing. Makes me picture him sitting on the tiny bronco, staring up at the crooked rocket.

[Jordy20074]

2 people entered the wrong rocket code =[

[IAmLegend10762]

@Jordy20074 i can never get that damn code right! it just pisses me off! 

[bergali]

HOW have I not seen this stuff before? Instant subscribe.

[erinobass92]

You are amazing. Simply amazing.

[flipmira]

3:33 c'est vraiment uncroiable. Very nice job, keep at it

[JoshTAnderson36]

Dude, your videos deserve 1 million+ views. THANK YOU for all of the simply incredible covers you do! I am sure I can speak for all your fans when I tell you that your efforts are GREATLY appreciated!

[EonBlueApocolypse]

Something about this piece, even as far back as the 90's midi from the game has aways had a special place in my heart. I have an admiration for Cid. Always have.

[deleonchristian]

Please put on Itunes! I will definitively buy it!

[engmarciohe]

Eyedrops to our ears.

Medicine to our souls.

An Super Giga Tera Amazing Omnislashed performance, man.

U can bet on it.

[kakemase]

@SongeLeReveur What tone is that ocarina on?

[ScienceFictionHairdo]

This may very well be the best interpretation of any final fantasy song ever...

[hopecandecieve]

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you... TALENT!!!

[dareheaven2]

nearly made me cry at the end, beautiful arrangement

[ScienceFictionHairdo]

once again... your versatility when it comes to instruments never ceases to amaze me! Especially lovin the harmonica flute/piano thing! a pleasure listening to you!

[Xene888]

@ScienceFictionHairdo Harmonica/flute/piano thing is called a Melodica

[mazdalopitek]

J'espère que s'ils refont Final Fantasy 7 en HD, ils t'engageront pour les musiques du jeu, car elles sont parfaites. Tu as le "Spirit" au bout des doigts!

[apslusk]

It's a pleasure listening to your music! 

[Caiownegao]

multi-instrument talented ! i like hearing your songs and i'm a squaresoft fan . thanks for posting

[MightyMartel]

Why do nerds just have way better ears than everyone else?

[Caiownegao]

@MightyMartel up ! hahaha

[Topher888]

You are very talented, keep up the good work and don't stop playing!!

[tepes22b]

You're pretty ridiculous man. Not only are you technically able on quite a number of instruments, your phrasing and "soul" on all of them are top-notch as well. Bravo.

[floundericiousWA]

Can you post the mp3 of this like you did with Tifa and Aerith's themes??

[floundericiousWA]

@floundericiousWA nevermind, I caught your response on another vid and found this place:

"listentoyoutube" dot com NICE!!! YAAAY!!!!

[floundericiousWA]

god damn you're good



[SageNemesis]

I subbed. You rock.

[ScottyTheInsane]

You have taken a song that was created by a musical genius, and given it such a beautiful spin that it does more justice to the song than the original composition. I have never heard a version of this song that I liked more than this one; it truly makes me nostalgic for the game while maintaining its own sound. Your usage of the Melodica is very inspiring... it's actually made me anxious to go out and purchase my own. Any advice for choosing one? Finally, thank you for this amazing piece...

[JPM2875]

this may have just become one of, if not my favorite version of this song. This is absolutely fantastic.

[ImbarratoL]

Sephiroth AND Cadage disliked.

[Fulgrim86]

epic dude i love what you're doing keep on!

[UrDadGaveMeHerps]

We should call his playing space.. THE FUNK LAYER.

[OmniLegend]

No really...this is amazing

[MrSchuurmachine]

@bartekgrajek wtf is wrong with you prick

[bartekgrajek]

damn, ur fucking isnane! its crazy. u raped my childhood. I hate Final Fantasy! Its because of you!

[DarkRaiish]

what's the flute pianoinstrument



[Twist40]

I was already over-impressed with the first few minutes then the second half just blows it out of the water! Like a rocket *cough*. Overall performance is perfect.

[taylorpickett1]

Yeah man, this is  BAD ASS!! One of my best subscriptions ever. Keep banging out the tunes, I'll keep listening to them.

[AuronLeonhart]

PERFECT!

[blaksephirot]

fretless bass? O:

[meigaria]

at 2:18 what is the device he has instead of a pick? it keeps the note ringing?

[GillelandStudio]

@meigaria I believe it's called an Ebow...

[largoPKN]

You, guy! It's amazing... I'm mad about FFVII since it was on sale, and the idea of make the guitar out of tune, the rythmical imperfection (there's not imperfection, I mean, it goes perfect, but it's a little bit hard to follow it...), everything... It's like seeing Cid looking at his ship.

You are a genius!

[largoPKN]

[1musamune]

Oh my it's so relaxing the irony

[thebarbare69]

Honnêtement je m'en lasse pas, cette cover est absolument parfaite. Tout y est je ne peux que dire félicitation à nouveau ^^

[shannonpssh]

2:18 on is the best part

[BenWilkins0227]

Wonderful...I especially like how you seemed to capture the sadness of Cid...most people don't get that about Cid...Bravo!

[aspade01]

Chuck Norris shed a tear listening to this

[DarkRaiish]

@aspade01 someone got cured of cancer woohooo!!!

[dctim]

@aspade01 Well, he would've done *IF* he was able to cry!

[NIGHTMARE20XX]

@aspade01 That means he just cured cancer!

[Zer0MT]

Wow. Just wow. This is so special. Magnifique!

[SpadeHand]

This is 3000% badass

[cynicsfaith]

I don't know why, but Cid's theme makes me think of a man filled with regrets and unfulfilled desires, quietly pondering them as he trudges onward looking for a purpose.

...

o wait, that's Cid.

[strikerk]

@cynicsfaith Oh wait, that's~ a lot of people.

That's what makes Cid great.

Who doesn't have some regret in life? How many live their lives wishing they did something else, something they dreamed of?

Cid is someone we want to root for. He was always someone I kept in my party. Tough as nails, and someone I can believe in.

[Highbernating]

@strikerk Same. Ever since I was young he was one of my favorites. Now that I'm older I turned out to be just like him. :(

Difficult decisions leading to huge regrets, bitterness, sailor swearing, chain smoking and all.

But, just like with Cid, its not too late.

[Rocknload33]

@strikerk Beautiful said!

[cidien]

@cynicsfaith Of course that's Cid, now sit your ass down in that chair and drink your goddamn TEA!

[KeisukeKenobi]

Mec... J'ai failli me mettre à chialer tellement c'est magnifique... XD

[momomoose]

I am a new fan :D

[drummmarios]

very nice!! i am fun

[TeflonSoul]

Wow...I like basically all your videos, but you outdid yourself with this one. There's so much texture and nuance to it. Excellent work!

[sekalias721]

Fucking fantastic!

[PointDemoBand]

Is there an instrument you don't have!? Loving these vids dude this is one of my favs from ffvii

[matheuscpn]

I went to your blog and clicked on the AD just to make sure you get something outta this AMAZING job you do! Thank you for sharing!!

[thehedgehogamy]

this is perfect...

[BillW87]

Absolutely awesome..the fretless bass is a really nice touch for this song too!

[frocobo1537]

I've watched alot of videos on youtube, but have never commented on them before, but with this.....masterpiece..... I feel the need. I'm a metalhead, and was looking up covers of game music with a metal vibe, and saw this, clicked on it out of curiosity and.... my god man! This is unbelieveable! Having said that, after listening to the original and other covers, is it just me or does this sound like... Cid's dying? I don't know it just gives me that "I'll sacrifice myself for you" vibe.

[TheHrebo]

you are da best in the entire fucking wordl!!!! thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanks man this was so epic... :// tears in my eyes....

[01marth]

Just becuase this theme  is awesome and their no dislike I am going to thumbs you and sub you for sure :)

[EverydayMac]

La guitare que tu utilises pour nous donner un long orgasme de 2:41 à 3:30, c'est une Fender ?

En tout cas j'èspére que tu vas percer, c'est pas tout les jours qu'on a l'occasion d'écouter des compositions à ce point énorme !

[PyroicKakisho]

I actually clicked on this video on accident...but halfway through I realized it was no accident, but destiny that brought me to this.

[lostinlymbo4]

What is the instrument at 3:35? The keyed one?

[hupperAlex]

JUST EPIC> thank you

[TheDomis4]

wow, this ist the only YT video without a hater :)

great song

[Lionhearted77]

OH MAI GOD!

Epic.

[goldenmage]

Amazing everything. Composition, musicianship...even the way you edited it is magnificent. Uematsu would be proud.

[pixiefh]

I love the whole arrangement but after about 2:23 the song is absolutely mesmerizing.. I could listen to that over and over and over again!

[proJ3CHT]

Sexy!

[Sylkis89]

what is this wind instrument that you use at the beginning called?

[DannyDoomPink]

@Sylkis89 I could be mistaken but I think he's playing an Ocarina

[Sylkis89]

@DannyDoomPink yea, I also think that it's ocarina - and I think it's a double or triple one :)

[Nuncio94]

*cries*

[GeekaristOne]

WAOW!

Au début c'est une Suhr non?



[SongeLeReveur]

@GeekaristOne Suhrement ! :D

..... *fuis*

[darknesswardragon]

wow O.O

awesome job! very cool cover! i enjoyed it very much ^^

[TheLastZiggen]

♥♥

[ZappaUndersn]

Beautiful. Just beautiful.

I have no words. Seriously. I'm speechless.

[migzymouse]

now i like you man! i feel like flying now.. ^^

[RushMyEx]

most fascinating .... no haters oO

[86Mastro]

5 stars!

[Karlossy]

This song made me wanna just lay in a field and watch the sky

[foolers94]

Amazing!! o_o

[Taboo069]

Cid est fier de toi. Maintenant pars vers l'espace, et sauve la planète!

[daaaveint]

OK, I have watched many thousands of videos on youtube. I have never posted a comment on any of the past videos I've watched, so this is my first comment. This guy is nothing but musical genius. He keeps getting better at making these songs too! One day this guy is going to be discovered (big time discovered). I bet if he started composing his own stuff he would blow up alot more on youtube. It just takes one video getting the word around and he goes viral.

[johnaiton]

This is probably the best cover version of any piece of game music and I've seen hundreds each year.

The video lighting and editing added a lot and the subtle play of guitar in the mix was brilliant.

Do you own a music store or something cos all your instruments are top tier from the most uncommon brands known mostly to be for pros

[Shadowshamer]

Wow, that static riff was INTENSE!

[jamontoastst]

fretless bass like a boss!

[eduardillo85]

je ne se pais plus francais!

[Aiji00]

Vidéo très réussi, bon montage, et évidement musique superbe :) (j'adore le "noise" ça rend vraiment une ambiance lourde)

SongeLeUematsu!!!

[MrMojoRyzin]

I really like how you added the whole 'lost transmission' sound effect. Suits it well.

[AlexNavarroIniesta]

u are awesome...

[dctim]

great rendition. The "noise" was a really nice touch :)

[hiyo1092]

like it. it definitely sounds like cid

[Tostakiwi]

Je veux le même bonnet. Je suis certain que ça va améliorer mon skill.

[KyleBradburnUK]

What instrument is that? the one that sounds like a flute, I've never seen it before

[darkchuwwi]

@KyleBradburnUK

Its an ocarina

[ernonno]

This is the first video I saw that has 0 dislikes... wow

[Tupster]

@ernonno So hard to resist hitting dislike just to spite you :)

[ernonno]

@Tupster

Let's not taint it lol :P

[metalmittens]

@ernonno Cause all the people who would dislike it got shot at by the highwind.

[AdamBond7]

FANTASTIC

[ddrman101]

Wow... I never realized how fucking beautiful this tune is. Your arrangement really makes it shine. Excellent job man.

[glrebirth9]

Awesome work on that bass.

[blaksephirot]

is that a fretless bass?

[ShinDenjin]

This does fit into Cid's character. awesomeness.

[DarkSephiroth66]

God... chills, good chills, excellent uber nice chills... Great work...<3

[Dizzae]

Loved 1:40 when you're just shakin the egg, great stuff man!

[flasheartfilms]

Just...so god damn beautiful. I would pay good money for your music.

[BlackM3rcy]

talent.

[Kudaimo]

Good business strategy, don't have to split the income if you're the only one in the band

[SidusNova]

Another amazing job! I loved it!

[cresfresh552]

*slur of ecstatic vulgarity* that was pretty damn epic

[Mentosdog]

Great one (again) :) I wish that Mr. Uematsu could hear some of your covers and variations of FF, and other game themes, that he created. I'm sure he would like it, cause there are many "amateurs" covers, even here on YT, but some of your's are definitely the best I have ever heard. Maybe you should consider that ?

PS. "Black Mages" beware :D

[Hartsai]

Hey SongeRe, awesome cover... again.

I'm thinking of buying ocarina too. I just dont know anything about ocarinas, so could you give me tips how much should i invest to one.

[stunna47pyro]

There is actually no instrument that SongeLeReveur cannot play!

[FurryKing19]

sounds like that came from your heart I loved it alot and thank you for doing that beutifull peice of musical art

[FurryKing19]

sounds lie that came from your heart I loved it alot and thank you for doing that beutifull peice of musical art

[mikeyboy86]

Wow, Wow, WOW!!!

[L8P8]

[ThePope17]

very sweet! man you've got lots of great instruments. im so jealous : )

[generalshrooms]

I liked it a lot but I'm a little disappointed, I was hoping for something fast and heavy.

[doidao47]

"and bongos sometime out of rythm"

where? i can't hear it, you play perfect, your technique is improving, congratulations, you are the best cover maker on youtube that i know.

[Sinalve1]

@doidao47 I second the notion

[mrbaboonboy8]

This is awesome

[Milago20]

[doncrossthatstreet]

mate, you've outdone yourself. Perfect one. 5* Keep up the wonderful work!

[keixoun]

You cover a lot of ground in this song. A lot of feelings in just one song. Really nice to listen to.

[samuraiwolf22]

I'v been looking for this!

[death7unites7us]

I risked being late to work just to watch this entire video. Absolutely stunning, from the atmosphere of the video to the music itself, amazing! :)

[Turbo852]

Very well played! I love Cid's Theme! The roughness seems to add an interesting layer to the performance.

[runningbirdw]

You are such a PRO!

[ForestMarth]

Aaaaah j'étais sûr que tu finirais par jouer avec une fretless !!! ^^

Cet arrangement et cette vidéo, tu les as peaufinés comme jamais !!!!!! Vraiment, il n'y a tout simplement pas de mots assez forts pour exprimer à quel point tu m'impressionnes :-D

Mille BRAVOs et mille mercis Songe pour cet arrangement rempli (à ras bord) de créativité/originalité/musical­ité !!!!!!!!!!!

[Bomixto]

a word describes tis song and all of your other covers and songs.............EPIC

[galcha51]

On sent que tu t'es vraiment donné à fond pour cette reprise, c'est superbe !

[stonetheforbidden]

I don't know how you don't have a ton more subscribers. Your stuff if consistently awesome.

[agocska]

I can't find words... Impressive!

[ErikaRagazzi]

Very nice, 5 stars ★★★★★

[NeoKyosuke18]

[TehJenZ]

I'm convinced that your beanie grants you cloning abilities as well as supernatural instrumental skills.
