"M" FFVIII Fisherman's Horizon

[LastDayStudios]

Standing ovation

[Graven754]

I would like to request "Under the apple tree" from ff7 crisis core. It's possibly my favorite song i have ever heard and would love to hear you play it.

[IrisUnlimited]

Beautiful, your astonishingly good, High praise and I hope to become as good as you someday. May life be prosperous and fortunate.

[swamdono]

Awesome, man. This is the song that brings me back to my childhood.

I have to ask, are you doing picking with the outside of your finger too?...

[ZeinW]

すごい！！すごく上手なギター・プレやだと思ってます！

私もギターが出来るけど、通常自分で作った歌をプレイします

じゃあ

[VannyixDragoon]

Although my first Final Fantasy I played was II/IV on the SNES, for some reason, FFVIII music is the most nostalgic of all the past Final Fantasys I played... Though that could've been contributed to the fact that Final Fantasy IV had been remade/ported to many current generation handhelds. =P I bought Final Fantasy VIII on PSN and now reliving the experience again on my PS3. :)

[JaiG2M]

excellent as always

[BellasDarkFantasy]

This makes me want to play this game so much. It has one of the best game soundtracks, in my opinion. When I was a kid, I used to go to specific places just to listen to the music. (:

[1bloodkiller1]

I still remember the old timer sitting at end fishing while Balamb Garden comes crashing in!

[EndlessNightmare666]

Can you do another song from final fantasy vi?

[ChevyJP86]

its crazy to think that there is actually 5 people that dislike this masterpiece of a song! like your covers of Final Fantasy songs! especially VIII since it had a lot of really good acoustic pieces in it! good playing to!

[nandrexdura]

it's amazing what lonlonjp can do with a guitar..

congrats..

cheer

[Rdeboer]

The main challenge I find with this piece is avoiding unwanted string-muting; it'll take a while to do the "ironing out" as they say, but very very rewarding.

Thank you lonlonjp for uploading this, you inspired me to have a try at it.

[lonlonjp]

@Rdeboer

I must say "Thanks for your watching and your kind message."

Your comment brought me back here, this beautiful song again =)

[sgtPhoenix53]

Man.... you make it look so easy.

[vincent4169]

is it possible to get the score of your arrangement?

[Spitznats1987]

make a World Tour please Lonlon! If u were in malaysia, i would waiting for you for my wedding day and play all ff8's song in guitar mode! *Seriously*

[o0Kurisu0o]

Hello lonlonjp! I've been watching your videos for quite a long time, trying to repeat every motion of those advanced fast hand wizard fingers of yours!

Im positive you get tab requests often but i reallyy need your tab for this song >.< There is no imperfection from transition from the game to your '86 Contreras!

[wtfhotdogsandmilf]

This was probably the first finger picking song i learned, without using a platrum and it took me forever to learn! But now i am so happy i almost know it!!! Thnx Lonlon you have succeeded in making me happy :D ur ace!

[FiruZero]

it's hard to put into words how much I love this piece =)

[Gsus665]

....guess its time to play ff8 ....for the 9th time..mhhhh...sweet memories of childhood...thanx so much !!!

[kevchan88]

this song reminds me of Martin. lol

[Serilys]

Freaking amazing. Nuff said.



[SamPizelo]

awesome job! i loved it :)

[203ltachl203]

i cant believe u do this by ear

you are one of the most talented players ive seen on youtube

[chicofuu]

Thanks man.. I needed to hear this today...

I need to keep practing and I really want to play this song on my guitar as well..

[bookperfect]

Awesome!!

sorry, Where i can find your tabs.

Are you upload it on internet??

[kirakirashiya]

[jhontez91]

Eres mi inspiración para tocar la guitarra!!!!

[Laiatar]

Beautiful playing! I've just learned this on the piano. ^^

[Simonomon2]

wow man... bravo.... BRAVO!!! you did very well! I did not even think it would be possible to play this song so well on guitar.. but you did it.... i wish I could do it!

[RoldaoKanon]

Only what I have to say is that you can play perfectly, because this issue is one of the most beautiful that Uematsu has composed ... Congratulations.

[LozachanFF]

Always loved Uematsu's work in Final Fantasy. However, while the fighting songs were good, it was always the peaceful songs, such as this, that got to me.

Good work on this one ^^

[nyoraijuryoubon]

ゲーム音楽ってFFに限らずいいものが沢山ありますよね。

この曲もとても素敵です。

ほかの動画もいろいろ拝見させていただきました。

今はjuliaを必死で耳コピしてます。

これよりかなり難しいですね。

他にもファミコンのmather関係の曲をやってくれたら

嬉しい限りです。

素敵な音色をいつもありがとうございます、

これからも期待しています。

嬉しい限りです。

[Skanoff666]

Man... once again you draw me tears. This one was the only song in the game I stoped to really listen and forget about troubles... and you made it better than ever. Thanks a lot guy. I'm felling peacefull again.

You've got a fan in Brazil.

[adrenalinerush369]

wow, i'm really hooked watching your videos. you've inspired me to take up guitar lessons :)

btw, if it's not too much trouble,could i please request "orrizonte" from the suikoden series? it's a nice song and i would like to see how you would make a rendition of it. thank you very much.

[zyklon20]

wow this is so good,well done :-)

[BarretPL]

amazing, i love your all square songs, naruto bleach and just everything! sub

[Vatharos]

Tabs please? id really appreciate it :D

[bocho0610]

very nice! tabs please!

[danielworldrules]

After all that time I still love this game and this tune it brings so many good memories of childhood ... back then I believe my life have to be special and it has no boundaries .... so many lost memories so many good stories and everyone equal under the sky ...

Thank you for bringing back this feeling, your play is simply amazing !!

[drXabaras666]

beautiful place, beautiful sound, beautiful game...i ll never forget the moment when i entered Fisherman s horizon and heard that melody...it s one of the main reason ff8 is more than game for me...well done friend, perfect cover :)

[lxbrownnproudxl]

I'v never herd this on guitar before. Very impressive =)

[5465377]

I just cried listening to this song? What does it mean? I mean i seriously shed a tear.

[g00ners43ver]

I wanna learn this I wanna learn this I wanna learn this aaaaaaaaaaa.....

[strawberrymochapapi]

Whether it's played on guitar, piano, or even synth (which is what I think Nobuo used originally for the game), this song always makes me feel all nostalgic and peaceful. One of the series' best, I think.

And great playing as usual, lonlonjp. Been a fan for quite some time now.:)

[lonlonjp]

@strawberrymochapapi

Thanks very much indeed for your nice comment on this video :)

i definitely agree with you =D

[thechaos55asda]

This is simply amazing.Loved the harmonic on 0:17 XD

Is it possible to get the tabs? :D

[waikeizer]

@lonlonjp man but up the tabs or the partitures :S is a beauty song congratulations =D

[Leon1Hearth]

5 People drowned at fishermans horizon

[goran148]

im amazed. thanks for this piece.

[bin1127]

how do you do that last note?  is it a pull off?

[Nisroe]

@bin1127 i think it´s called harmonic, but i don´t know exaclty the name.

put your finger slightly on the string and then hit the string.

doesn´t really work on all frets. try it in 5,7 and 12

[salasvalor01]

My favorite places in ffviii were Timber, the snow villiage place, and Balamb Garden ofcourse.

[katsukiakira]

I want to cry when the has begun man... T^T"

I really love this song very much... T^T"

PS. thanks for sharing... T^T"b

[0neweak]

[Onionboy32]

Awesome cover!

Listening to this is as relaxing as lying in the sun. Maybe I'll go and do both ^.^

[Requinix17]

wow, this is only in 360p but the quality looks better than most 480p videos

[KergenBoneBreaker]

Great cover =)

[Satanismia]

Sitting in the docks, listening to Fisherman's horizon and eating Fisherman's friend...

[lonlonjp]

@Satanismia

[Satanismia]

@lonlonjp What :D I've always wanted to live near sea, too sad I live in middle of Finland...Surrounded by forest

[Satanismia]

@lonlonjp and good work with this cover :) It's great

[SamFisherCell]

@Satanismia wow, must be an amazing feeling :)

[Sakuraflower90]

@Satanismia haha funny guy hehe;P

[mrlittle77]

Stunning sir.....beautifully played. Joint favourite song of the Final Fantasy series along with Aeris' theme (or Aerith if your being picky)

[mrlittle77]

Stunning sir...beautifully played. Joint favourite song of the Final Fantasy series along with Aeris' theme (or Aerith if your being picky).

[Gylfaginning16]

I would love and be honoured to accompany you with my mouth harp at this song, although its just an imagination from myself. And although you are on a completely other level than me. But I will practice, since your videos give me enough courage to do so =)

Nice work. Go on like that =)

[joelfukingmejor]

The best !!! 5 more stars for u my friend

[hysterics1988]

great guitar solo! could you post how to play this song on youtube?

[jukeboxflip]

Wow that was nice. You're really good.

[mvrykolaka]

I so love how you play it. very emotional.

[GameRumble]

Lovely! Just lovely! One of my favorite Final Fantasy VIII tracks! How can I request a song?

[lonlonjp]

@GameRumble haha^^

You can post it anywhere on my channel or videos :)

[jc99k]

Really nice,

thank you for posting these.

Greetings from Peru.

[jc99k]

oh and this is my favorite ff tune

cause it has a special significance in my life,

thank you again

[theblackmanOyeah]

is there any way you could tab this out? that would make me soo happy. great playing also!!

[Doky]

A master piece played by a master like you must sound like this song. Amazing!

[btnheazy03]

damn, this is "medium" to you?? xD

[thebluebaron86]

@btnheazy03 it kinda becomes medium once you get the feel of it =D but when u dont get the feel it gets terribly confusing.

[applepunk81]

yet again

[gelbot]

Just beautiful.

Thank you so much. I have been gaming for over 25 years and have countless game soundtracks.  This is one of my favorite songs ever, and I say this as an absolute highest compliment- your rendition is WORTHY :) Nice job!

[bigrnrlife]

Nice work. This is one of the best songs Nobou ever composed in my opinion.

[stanstun]

oh man, you're born for playing this song so damned good !

i'm your great fans ! :D

[noypirulez]

wow, and you dont even look at the neck of the guitar!!! uber pro ^^

[Vesper92]

Oh, I'm almost crying. This song always makes me feel good even if my day has been horrible. And your version is even better. With love <3

[PankieMan]

Your work is really something else man!

Keep the videos coming... And pleaseeee! Start thinking about releasing some tabs for us "non pro" players!

Cheers!

[lonlonjp]

haha... i am a non pro as well xD

but i love these songs, picture and beautiful story of the game :)

[Gylfaginning16]

@lonlonjp Saying you are a non pro sounds wrong to me. But it also encourages me to learn more Final Fantasy themes. I hope to get Cid's Theme from FF VII finished soon.

I too lose these songs and apparently I'm not alone =)

[nurelkamash]

@lonlonjp allright maybe for us "amateur" PLZ?!

[edisfoamy]

@lonlonjp In 1:07 what do you call it in music term, is it a bridge, interlude, or what is it? can you help me?

[vinzer72frie]

i gonna try this version , thank you for sharing

[KUCHUKOO]

Very nice...

[delmago1]

cool tune

[macki0811]

It really relaxes me as i listen to the music.

I love both the original and this guitar version.

Outstanding job lonlon.

[lonlonjp]

Thanks for your posting a nice comment =D

[batumulia]

I love it so much, I'm trying to learn it myself :)

Keep on going LonLon!

[lonlonjp]

ok! i will ^o^

[ThePancakeChef]

If you have the guitar tab-chords for this can you mail it to me please? I have a nice tab from the song "Elm" from Cowboy Bebop that you might like as well to trade :)

[Frankuz90]

Wow...that's absolutely amazing. Keep playing dude!

[ElmdorMarquis]

Awesome work! As always! I would give anything for know play this song...

[lennix25536]

idol! you make me feel young again. god i miss the days when i used to play ff8

[Romess1]

Awesome playing, too bad its played on halfstep down tuning. It takes too long to make tabs for standard tuning. Can't learn it by ear unless i downtune my guitar XD.

[RefDiva2]

5 stars

[lonlonjp]

Thanks for your listening to this video ^o^
