think of how significant japanese video games are to our culture.... is that important?.... does it say anything about america?.... no, it just speaks of how fricking awesome the japanese-nintendo dudes are... :)
right now I'm looking at the pictures of my trip in Italy (especially the ones about fields and ruins of ancient greek temples) and this song is just SO-O-O fitting... The only thing that would make this greater is adding Link in every of my photos XD
1:52 lol so this one time i went an a field trip to the local philharmonica and they were explaining how important music is to games. They then asked for suggestions, at that moment i shot out from my seat screaming "ZELDA!" guess what they played =D
Journey, across a spooky land! You hold in your hand, a sword that shoots laser beams. Won't you feel like a man, dressed up like peter-pan, on a quest greater than, your dreams!!!
I wonder if Gannondorf is ever just facepalming and like talking to one of his minions and thinks "We can take down the ENTIRE FUCKING HYRULE ARMY IN A MATTER OF DAYS BUT ONE GUY IN A FUCKING GREEN DRESS TAKES DOWN MY ENTIRE EMPIRE!!!! WHAT THE FUCK AM I PAYING YOU ASSHOLES FOR!!!"
@SpiroHrvoje1989 And then we just have some dude write the lyrics to the song.... :The beauty of Japan! Oh Glorious Japan! I love my homeland! My fatherland, and I will fight for him, when the time comes! Oh, I love you Japan! And I love... my glorious Emperor! For whom I will fight for!
:3 I hope that's good for National Anthem. I'm no Japanese guy either. I'm Eurasian American. :P
last year in my freshman year of high school some guy was mario for halloween so everyone were in costumes and during one of my classes he just opens the door and shoots like mario "Mario!" and then runs away. it was funny.
This is a track of Orchestral Game Music Concert 1 performed by Tokyo City Philharmonic Orchestra, not Boston Symphony orchestra. Even if I find that the arrangement is in the style of John Williams, it's not him.
Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooodammit. Why is this song so epic? I know how to play the melody and rhythm to this song and I still can't figure out why its so great. It just is.
@GameSkiller117 No they're not, they're just perceptive. There are many elements of the song that sound very similar to the Superman and Star Wars themes that John Williams composed. If you've ever heard a wide selection of music from John Williams, you'll notice that it's quite unique, and very recognizable.
i have to say in the pic at 0:50 i love the part where it is impa holding zelda impa was always my favorite character, kakriko village was laways my favorite place (it felt more homey than the forset) the nocturn of the shadow was always my favorite song and the shadow medallion was my favorite color and design
the start of that song is sooooo superman's theme in the 70's and 80's what the hell? with all respect to zelda i don't think they do credit to the theme here
How come every time there is a Zelda music video there is all ways 30ish dislikes. It's like the same 30 people troll YouTube with a frown on their face till they get that little bit of joy in their lives by clicking that I hate all that is awesome dislike button.
I must repost, this is in fact the best 'Instrumental' song ever. I wish all LOZ fans nothing but peace and harmony. Keep enjoying a classic game as I have over the last two decades.
It does really sound like the leadup to superman's theme on some parts. Its REALLY trumpet heavy during those parts, and it smacks of some John Williams (I know its not, but it really does sound of it.)
It would be awesome if there was a sort of life-zelda experience where you could actually enter a zelda-style dungeon in real life and use actual tools you find along the way to solve actual puzzles. And there could be holographic enemies, and a boss at the end!
This was conducted and performed by the Tokyo City Philharmonic Orchestra, not John Williams or The Boston Symphony Orchestra. Look it up on youtube! :)
