Nobuo Uematsu - Final Fantasy VIII - Breezy

[cjsiracuse]

Great job man but it's a lil too fast ya know?

[ethereal3436]

24 people took an arrow to the knee :D

[ItsSteveTre]

@ethereal3436 No my friend. Just No.

[ethereal3436]

@ItsSteveTre why?

[316lga]

change "breezy" to "speedy"

but nice thugh,good job

[Innocentlive24]

why u have dislikes??

ur great bro..

[usedup177]

its so fast,ur making it sound worse

[1881eagle]

the dislike....may be because your tempos to fast....but none the less..its fine

[jonjonjonmw3]

slow the fuck down

[zeroglare]

@jonjonjonmw3 You slow the fuck down at typing such a comment. I bet you already fucking posted that comment the first four fucking seconds of the fucking video. Oh and I'm only answering with your attitude and using your words. :)

[jonjonjonmw3]

@zeroglare k

[zeroglare]

@jonjonjonmw3 hi lulz

[linkjoshua12]

@linkjoshua12 If that didn't make enough sense to people not used to talking about time in music, the difference is that the tempo he chose wasn't too fast, but he short-changed the longer notes and ended up speeding up the tempo in certain areas. In physics, it's speed vs. (a change in) acceleration.

[linkjoshua12]

Don't think it was too fast at all. I think it was faster than the original, but it's an artistic decision that I would also make if I were to reproduce it. I feel like the only actual problem with time is that sometimes you push the established pulse - it's especially notable at the quarter note harmonic notes descending - and it gives the performance an "on edge" quality. I'd pay greater attention to the space between notes. Otherwise, it was really beautiful! Bravo.

[WoRm1N8R]

the rhythm and notes are perfect, but you should definitely remake this video... as countless others have said it is a bit fast and your guitar was slightly out of tune... not enough to ruin it, but noticeable to anyone with a good ear.

Even with imperfections however, this is the single best cover of breezy I have seen/heard so far.

[FinalJD]

Tab please ?

[SpiderM0nki]

@Kainthemain he left square enix in 2004 he has his own freelance studio now called "Smile Please" i love all of his music he is amazing ^_^

[sandro123lol]

your video is to short ! u must play the song longer !!!

[dresaywha]

Great take on Breezy, but I have to say...waaaaaay too fast. 

[Kainthemain]

Nobuo really is great,but his the newest final fantasy was not that great in my opinion. Music and game.

[AnonymousOfAustralia]

@Kainthemain Are you talking about FFXIII? Nobuo didn't do the music score for it.

[Kainthemain]

@AnonymousOfAustralia really?why not?

[myHEADisAtv]

Yeah, it's not too fast at all, it feels..well..Breezy.

[Spectermonkey]

I love how every armchair music critic on here has to give the guy who posted video the most obvious advice they could possible divine from watching this. Anyone who posts music much less, plays music would be able to tell they were rushing. All these "slow down bro" 's are just extraneous and probably as annoying as fuck to read for the guy who posted this.

[keverinkarama]

nice tone. what brand of guitar are you using bro?

[MrColdkilla69]

Nobuo is the best game music creator i have seen so far. the best, Japanese rocks. Rghr

[titan2781]

slow down! Its a peaceful song lol

[Guitarist2098]

man tune that thing before you play it,

[Guitarist2098]

man tune that thing or find something thats intonated.

[GentleSnowflake]

this is a good song to wank to

[unchaineddrag8n]

Its indeed too fast compared to the original, but don't slow it down for me! Its very nice to listen/play in this tempo! Very nicely done!

[KreagPendragon]

Thats good, but your too fast.

[pccalcio]

man.. the title is "Breezy" this is a "tornado".. :P

[xxAsteriskxx]

harmonics were great. Slowing down a bit would be nice.

I saw various tabs and videos with different fingering. I've been using these, and my own fingering to find the most comfortable way to play it, but some parts still give me trouble. I think yours has the best flow economically along the neck. Is this your own fingering?

[BlazenT]

slow the fuck down, you're ruining this good song.

[josseh666]

Good Stuff Good Stuff

[Kiraff7]

Too fast :(

[rastavarian]

a little slower and its perfect!

[ilariona1234567]

i love i love iloveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[TheReaverOfDarkness]

very nice :)

[Lilukachan]

its a very nice cover but.... slow down...

[masversion1]

hmm....rainbow strings...interesting

[shawnaw2]

@masversion1

i dont think his strings are rainbow... hehe

i think its more like the lighting that gives that rainbow effect

[erwinlay]

I like you arrangement, where can I get the tabs? the links that you gave is not active

[kimitsudesu]

wow, very acurate transcription, that's a rare one.

[TheCannonbore]

Great!!!

[hielmi85]

Very2 Good Job!!!

[MrColdkilla69]

its good and please, do you mind putting the tabs on ultimate guitar please i really want to try his out

[SamFisherCell]

Breezy is sooo damn nostalgic.

[RikuZegram]

Great song :)

[PyroclasticMind]

ahh good times, I never even got to CD3 tho

[Shino2623]

I like how he strums at 0:37 and 1:08

[blurymind]

oh man, why the alternative tuning :(

[amslabau]

Great melody. It's why I love playing these games. You did a very good job bud keep it up.

[exposingconcern]

sounds out of tune. just a tad

[TheLastNaturalist]

Why hasn't Square-Enix ever done a FF: Guitar Collections album?

Regardless, this is stellar! I wish I had this on cd.

[Tru2DaStreets0718]

How much would you pay to have this on a cd?

[TheLastNaturalist]

Well since I'm about 99% sure you're not the artist, I would be willing to pay you $0.00.

[luke27luis]

That make me remember that good days playing ff8 ^^

So good, 5 stars ;)

[WolfGear001]

NO matter if it fast or slow..., the melodies still sound so good. ^_^

[OurAvenue143]

This is awesome, good job :]

[decdelphi]

Awesome !!!this is the best one...haha

[MyVeinsRuNoRaNge]

lol just walking around balamb ff8 :P

[Frilleon]

this would be amazing if it were slower

[ShinXLorD]

very good... but the tempo faster than the original... but still good... 5 star

[ANOTHERSICKMETALHEAD]

good notes good tone. too fast to enjoy

[punchdrive]

@ANOTHERSICKMETALHEAD I disagree. I know the original, and this sounds better to me...they both sound good tho ;o)

[aroundtheworlda]

Grrr Im so jealous! I so want to be able to play breezy :(

[supermagneet]

@aroundtheworlda hey you can see exactly what he's playing ;)

[rawallace36]

slow down boi

[Verinoth]

[DanteIbe]

@Verinoth honestly that was the first thing i thought

[moomanns]

this is 100% amazing

[hafiz930528]

argh!!such a great guitarist!!!

[AlvaroVasquez123]

just beautiful, 5* !!

[wonderwallmusic]

I love the picture at the beginning, it reminds me of the orphanage.

[ThaMasterOfDisaster2]

beautiful JUST BEATUTIFUL HURRAYYY HRURAYYY Like the Old 2d HURRAYS, HURRAYYY HURRRAAYYYY

[Uktrayf]

link wont work! :(

[MekuroGearSolid]

freakin fantastic man... always digged this song alot haha eveb wayy back in my punk days haha mmm we are in balamb lets rest the controller for a min n listen... lol I picked up the guitar again recently from being absent from it for a good half decade or so... this is on my high priority list of what I must play LOVE Nobuo... wish I had some direction on the guitar oh well I'll figure it out I'm sure thanks for treating my ears! ^^

[Conchobhar]

It's a little fast but very good.

[guynolan]

beautiful :)

[Shoinie]

wow, you're pretty good :) I want to learn the guitar one day...you were a little bit fast, but it was still good :)

[happyramenstudios]

Hey Everyone!

My name is Kevin. I'm a 17 year old composer. Nobuo Uematsu is a huge inspiration to my music. I would love for everyone to visit my channel and view the work available. Thank you to everyone!

[KKinsane2009]

man I was way off by ear, I like the D chord shape changes to the harmonics part :) and the desert island sounding chord patterns, one of nobuo's more genious peices. (I cannot spell.)

[bemdav]

Woah, you're pretty good, but... I tried to play it but probably I have wrong guitar tab, it doesn't sound that good and there are few mistakes, could someone send me that tab please ?

[lizardcack]

you hit the nail right on the head. well done bro.

[oOkwokOo]

niceee

:D

[s2jdask8er]

I have to agree with previously comments, it sounds better slower. However, that doesn't mean I did not enjoy your cover; because I did. :)

[wonderwallmusic]

That looks like Edea's house at the beginning.

[hohoreyi]

it reminds me the days when i play FF8. i wish they remake it on PS3.

[hellsing4life]

Sae here dude -.-

[notsumebr]

yeah man good old days...

me too =\

[alanmendez23]

PS3 FTL they should do it in PC with all the bells and whistles that would start another chapter in my life lol

[alanmendez23]

hes in a hurryy lol, it stills captures the beauty. Dam i wish they could remake FFVIII i have finished like 20 times or more. they should do it for pc!

[Yatse]

I care for the speed, You play to fast. But you still play very good, the sound is great!.

Work on the speed. :)

[Avelynn89]

it sounds awesome *.*

who cares about the speed? still amazing :D

[yuksterboy]

u ppl complain alot...if its fast...then...PAUSE IT

[EmptyNutShells]

no, they mean he's playing it too fast compared to how the actual song sounds.

[JyaJyaang]

PWNED

[XxDreadweavexX]

You play it way to fast.

[peidoatomico]

this song is the one i would most like to play on guitar from the final fantasys

lol better start practising!

[Indieguitarist85]

good Job!

thanks for helping me learn how to play this!

next time a bit slower,k? xD

[DLPBurke]

too fast

[daneatyou]

even though it's different from the real one, so is mine, who cares?. I like this a lot

[carlos8290]

But even so its pretty good man...;)

[KANATA16metallo]

some part of this is different from the real song...

[FFVIII2TVB]

It's been said before... A bit fast, but good work overall!

[sqee123]

the link to the guitar tab is not working for me. any idea where else to see this exact one?

[LUnarcry52]

thank you very mUch!!!

i able to play it!!!

5/5!!

[sxeeplta]

lol i believe he knows it was a lil fast by now hahaha

[savagesnowball]

It's not too fast, guys. You're just too slow.

[ChaoticRain1]

use a metronome, otherwise nice job!

[umustdichfikken]

yeah maybe to fast but still wow!

a litle bit slower and its perfect!

i wish i could play guitar..

[abdul398614]

5 stars

[gjmvi]

Great job man. Those chord switches around the 5th and 7th positions are a bitch!!!

[crackers5252]

hm. you kind of made a relaxing and laidback song sound forced and rushed. you hit every note with perfection though.

[ElitessSicisa]

hm.. well done, but i don't know.. i think it sounds better played slowly

[kaginu91]

it's really good, but as "aguering" said; a bit too fast ^^

[tanmy85]

where did you learn to play that?

[aguering]

kinda fast and a bit stiff yea .. but I still like very much your performance on breezy.

9.7 out of 10 XD

[damagejackal10]

Relax a bit, your too stiff

[Juancarctica]

good men i', from colombia and i'm the #1 FFVIII fan XD and your version remember me tha balamb city... thanks!! good song!

[thienan567]

I have the exact same guitar! :D

[walrus7861]

well...that was fantastic...

[rdj9]

I love thissss <333

[Paynekill]

out of tune, and a bout fast, but overall good.

[anotherbobhead1]

WANG! ITS ME! JINPACHI!

Seriously, nice job, I'm just now getting the hang of hitting the harmonics in that song. awesome job!

[rtol1993]

w00000t, very nice

[ebg1985]

wow fantastica

[tamika0925]

wow

[qwerty9903]

too fast, eat shit

[wellmellgell]

i just laughed my ass off over that comment

woop woop

[DavidQ23]

Can you give the tab of that song please

[velvet13orchid]

a bit fast but otherwise nice! :)

[FFfanaticx]

i to have to agree but i havent seen many videos that have managed to get the tempo of this quite right its a hard one to do tempo wise

[SephirothRules07]

a bit fast for my liking ,, great job tho :D

[lionheart2285]

agreed it is abit too fast, needs to be played slower... with feelings :) try get those harmonics to really come out too. non the less beautifull playing, i like your guitar :)

[carrogla]

hello ^^ lol i love that song a lot ^^ may i ask where can i get the tabs u used please?? ^^ id apreciate it ty ^^

[lloydx4]

lol the picture int he beginnign was the bridge leading to FH

[Refden]

Little bit fast but very good! I'd say this is the 2nd best version after Calebelijah's version.

[HolySamurai4990]

that was great, played nearly to perfection, after studying it i can play it now too, but ive ben playin for a while now, so thats just a talent i have. great job man.

[mrozomir]

i like this it is so easy

[nfera]

too fast and out of tune. you know the notes. now focus on feeling the piece and pay attention to intonation and tuning!

[takatakboy]

too fast

[blissfultragedy]

This is the best one on YouTube for sure.

[AngelosL]

good job man:)

[battjames]

make it a little bit slow man...

[JoansyOfArk]

Hes playing it fast because its a realy easy song to play and if he played it normal speed there not even any point in putting it on youtube

[LionHeart28]

I disagree with the easy part. MOderately difficult.

[stormtrooper1822]

i this song is "moderately difficult", then maybe you should practise up a bit more,, youll make it one day son'ny :D

[iiichigoo]

maybe u just sux

[fredepadde]

So what if it's easy if you play it slow... Of course there is a reason to put it on YouTube. The important thing isn't whether or not it's difficult it's whether or not it is beautiful! It's a wierd heavy-metal (Nothing against metal) attitude that music is about technique and not feelings. Sure you might be able to play something kick-ass impossible, but so what if it doesn't sound good?!

[TheBoredTyrant]

Not sure who said heavy metal is all about technique and not feelings, feel free to tell us.

[fly143]

fuck man! ur awesome

[Saluhior]

this song is from fisherman horizon in FVlll

[blissfultragedy]

No it's not, it's from Balamb.

[Betrion]

little fast at the begining but the rest sounds pretty good.

[AliKitten24]

excellent, good job! just tune a little bit your guitar, just a little ^^ and the original bit is slower but that sounds great like that!. Great performance!!!

[bladecruncher]

yeah was wot i was thinkin, a little fast, lol im goin around every vid listening to this lmao. i liked that tho VERY well played notes were perfect lol i dunno y this tunes is supposed to ahve those rlle plucky notes lol

[heyjeySigma]

beautiful, just a little on the fast side. Still great, very authentic.

[gnillo]

skiiiiiiiit bra låt men STÄM GITARREN!

[Llyud]

aye, it's a tad fast, but nevertheless awesome.

[Andronenia]

too fast slow it down a bit

[yifan93]

Maybe during the middle part where you need to keep shifting the D chord, u could try slurring, it would sound nicer :)

[goketesh]

De todas las interpretaciones aqui subidas, esta es la mejor.....

[goodha2]

dude tune your guitar its like nails on a chalkboard, and maybe play with a metronome every once in a while

[morphender]

yeah man THAT was good. but next time tune better before play! DE FRUTA MADRE.

[Holms]

wow... that's really perfect... I hear even that reverb that was in a game.. perfect classic guitar you have=)

[MetalliHead89]

AWESOME! Could you link me to the best tab? I can't any!!!

PLEASE! Chris \m/

[mattgonzales89]

What? That's it? You should be playing it at 150 so it sounds like dodododo.dododo.dodododo.dodod­o.dodododo.dododo.dodododododo­dodo. No, jk. Great job!!

[nezkeys79]

a bit fast but the best guitar rendition on youtube

[marinina90]

WOW!! Qué envidia me da la gente que toca tan bien la guitarra, es impresionante :')

[pe]

Awesome job on the song dude. Just a question and sorry if I sound Noob thats because I am, but I'm just wondering why your fingering looks different from what the tabs say. Have you modified it? Or am i just really wrong?
