"M" FFVII Rufus' Welcoming Ceremony

[DarkZholt]

And so, Rufus gave up his business on the big city and became a Chocobo farmer xD

Awesome song ^__^

[Aizukurimu]

let's all do the special move.. tahahah.. 2 people got busted by heidegger tahah.. ..sir lonlonjp thnx for this arrangement it brings back memories :D

[onionknight777]

When playing this, thanks for not ignoring the low brassy parts. :) (I think it's Tuba?)

[LunaKiller2753]

lonlonjp plays this incredibly; he makes it sound great and look simple.

Oh and "Gyahahaha" and "Kyahahaha" disliked this. :P

[yamibalus]

@LunaKiller2753 You win for this comment.

[wordup42069]

2 people are haters

[TaeChanvit]

Dude... impressive !!!

[Akemichan94]

oh I hated this song in the game, maybe because of it repeating too much, but now I like it!

[onionknight777]

You actually included the base line played by the Susaphones! Nice!

[hinatalover678]

i would give anything to be able to play these songs

[hatewheel]

Oh wow, no way! This is awesome :D

[nanaki1997]

how do you get so good sound? i make guitar videos too but i do not get as good sound as you

[Skan11]

It's funny to see how the mood differ from original version to guitar version. The guitar version is more joyful and without the rolling drums it's obviously less militarish(?).

[KaeruthePaladin]

2 People really hate music, what? That's all I can come up with why else would you click the dislike button for this?

[haramichiyo]

as much as this song drove me around the bend in the game (and that time when it featured in FF9) i have to say i quite like this version. sounds better acoustically

[Groinfist]

My cat's name is Rufus. :3

[fearmeforiamgod1]

hey i found a site where people have transcribed some tabs for his works the site is here

[coolie345]

The ending of that song sounds like the Marriage of Figaro, correct me if I'm wrong.

[foppa16]

can i get tab?

[ardi061]

i love this.. :D LOL

[imerected1]

Square, circle, square, triangle, cross, "damn miss one button*

[xXkiwighostXx]

i used to hate this song from ff7 but u made it interesting for me XD and that very person who disliked this vid is a real fag

[Iknowmusic1988]

Oh, Wow; this is the first video of yours I've ever seen. I always wondered why certain tabs would have (Lonlonjp version) after the title! Well...great rendition of this one! And thanks for all the unique versions of great songs you've done [I've only seen the tabs]!!! I'm gonna check out your other tunes now.

[tidus259]

Oo ... omg... ... perfect!

congratulation !!!!!

PS: where can i find this partition or tablature please ???

[AlbertCoello]

awesome X) 5/5

[Satanismia]

This song reminds me of walking into ship :-)

[tonberrykid02]

Circle! Triangle! Square! Square! X! Circle! R1!

[MegaEternalLife]

This is totally awesome! 5/5

[Gates06]

wow lonlon amazing performance and arrangement! didnt think this could be done on solo guitar! brings back memories from the marching part on FF7! Id like to learn this song next although it looks rather difficult ! wish me luck

[TomasL93]

Thank you soooo much for recording the best musics, played by an awesome guy like you. fantastic its even hard to coment

[SehaChan]

so cool! xD

[Frolac0]

is there any where i can get tabs for this???

[xtremephill]

one of my favourite tunes from FF7 :D and you play it so well.

[noutathewolf]

Oh wow, how do you remember all of these? Amazing though. Such a upbeat song for such an 'evil' man

[Zeallottt]

Awesome D:

[ekimthegib]

Now that is a proper welcome.

[sh1ppo]

[Shiruban]

I'm discovering your videos, I began by the firt one in time, it's been over an hour now, you're just amazing. I really think you should NEVER stop uploading videos. I mean, as long as you feel up to it. Thank you so much.

[BlueSharingan01]

Jesus. Each chord = jizz.

You rule, man.

[lucenera88]

awesome ..............................­

[reepler]

but i found the tabs is your arrangement.

I found vamo alla flamenco tabs, its really your arrangement, there is a solo you have arrange for that song

You made it or other people made it?

Could you answer, please?

[lonlonjp]

Of course i can write guitar tabs, including Vamo's. However, due to deep respect, copyright problem and hard painful efforts as i mentioned on "more info" of this video, i do not post it freely on website. As for Vamo's, i wrote it only for my private use, i did not send it to anyone by mail or other means at all.

[reepler]

thanks

[lonlonjp]

i would like to be here with many friends, including you, reepler ^-^

i saw a lot of my friend's YouTube accounts were shut down suddenly due to copyright problem or something like that.

[Daltrey1994]

lets just agree that lonlonjp owns

[realOMNIslasher]

incredibly awesome

[Spleenman09]

Nice always one of my favorites from ff7 10/10

[lonlonjp]

Thanks very much indeed for your high rating =)

[Gamoden]

lol excellent. This turned out really well and I have to agree it's just like the march itself and all of the annoying drills lol.

[lonlonjp]

haha... xD

[murphy341]

this is awesome! reminds me of the marching and the drills - tough stuff!

[lonlonjp]

marching and the drills... yes, indeed ^-^

[SRY199]

really good!

[lonlonjp]

Thanks listening ^-^

[jellofast]

beautiful!!!!!!!

[lonlonjp]

Thanks so much for your posting a nice comment and your invitation^--^

i accepted it instantly =D

[jwood0087]

wow i must say, i'm one of the biggest final fantasy 7 fans on the planet, and seeing you flawlessly play my favorite tunes from the game on the guitar really amazes me. unfreakingbelievable dude, keep it up!

[lonlonjp]

Thanks watching this guitar video^--^

[Shercko]

Excellent work mate, keep this up! ;D

[lonlonjp]

Thanks for your encouragement^^

[qazwsxasdedc]

Oh you play so good lon, my friend, i wish i can play as good as you one day, btw, i must learn how to read sheet music, but iim clueless!

Btw, yes it's hard to write tabs, takes soo much time and patience, yet it's great when you see it finished :)

[wolfalba]

YESSSS! Almost every song i like from the final fantasy series you have done on guitar. Which i am very grateful for.

[lonlonjp]

Thank watching my ffvii videos^^

[AnotherSchmoe]

LOL, awesome. This was such a funny scene from the game, running around in that goofy disguise. Thanks for posting. =D

[lonlonjp]

haha,,, really^^ thanks finding this video^^

[carazide]

I wish i could play like that! Imagine sitting at around a campfire with your buddys, drinking beer and playing ff7 themes! :P And everybody would be like " whats that music, it's so nice " and you would be like " haha, not telling, it's my secret, but i'm glad you enjoy it! " :P

[lonlonjp]

haha... it must be a really nice occasion^^

[maraladanten]

i've seen almost all your videos =) So great ! Keep on working hard ! And thank you for every song you posted, just love it

[lonlonjp]

Thanks watching my videos^^

[Excessummako]

Marvelous!

[lonlonjp]

Thanks watching this video^^

[cursedchaos13]

Tabs are evil. That is a simple truth. I rather spend my time to learn how to read sheet music, which applies to all music, not just guitars.

Another wonderful piece from a wonderful artist!

Khaos

[lonlonjp]

i must say "Thank you" :)

[93JB93]

Tidus's theme guitar plz lonlonjp!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow! Really really good!! XD I'm a fan of Final Fantasy VII and... Of course of the OST, and you do a great job man!

[lonlonjp]

Thanks listening to this video =D

[rober1989x]

[lonlonjp]

Thanks watching this video and your nice comment^^

[tenshouha]

Great!!!

One of my fav tracks from FF7 :D

[lonlonjp]

thanks =D

[callmegood]

hey =D looks like this one's next after the fisherman XD From my side, it'll be painful reading the tabs. So I'll be reading your hands again *grin*

[lonlonjp]

i would be glad if some of my videos are of some help to you^^

[nywynn89]

awesome, i want to learn it :P

[lonlonjp]

i would be glad if this video was of some help to you^^

[felixtjung]

WOW!!! You are seriously awesome =O. *bow to almighty*. I did try to play this song on guitar long time ago, but I gave up. How long did you take to learn how to play this song?

[lonlonjp]

Thanks listening to this video^^

i do not remember exactly but the previous video "Great Warrior" was uploaded on 29 Feb 2008 and this video on 1 March 2008. It took me a day to record this song. However i do not think it could be arrange, practice and record within a day. I bet it took me at least a week to do all.

cheers

lon

[sanjisgirlfriend]

aw man i loved this part of the game. sadly i could NEVER get the ratings very high to get free gil though. but i really liked this song. if i had to choose between this song and any other song in the game (minus one winged angel, you can hear the cry of the planet and aerith's theme) i'd say this one! xD

[lonlonjp]

Thanks posting your fine comment^^

At first, i had thought it would be impossible to play this song on solo guitar, at least for me. i believe i love this song so much like you, so that i could overcome the difficulty somehow.

cheers

lon

[ShoJamesVidz]

God, this brings back memories, of when you had to do the marching bit in the game xD

That took me ages on my first try xD

i remember you get an item like blackglasses or something xD

Good job mate, it's obvious you bring a lot of memories back for people :)

[lonlonjp]

i really appreciate your nice comment^^

[Knukkohed4Jossu]

dude you are the best! 5 stars!

[lonlonjp]

thanks listening to this video =D

[deadpisser88]

Long live Shinra Inc.!! = D

Good job, man.

[lonlonjp]

haha... (^-^;)/

[already4am]

Shit man, I have been checking in some of your work the last day. Damn, you are sick at the guitar! Some VERY good work you got here, keep up the godly playing. :)

[lonlonjp]

Thanks listening to some of my videos^^

[DarkRamyzer]

Great,absolutely great

[psythax]

i was wondering if you could play the song that plays when you stay at the inn? "goodnight until tomorrow" i think it's called.

[fuzzyice370]

yesss that just puts a smile on my face AGAIN !! yesss lo

[lonlonjp]

Thanks a lot!

[DiaryofaMadman1982]

Do you use tabs or go by ear?

[lonlonjp]

Good question.

i do not use guitar tabs at all. This is my arrangement. there is no guitar tabs available. :) i listened to the original sound track carefully and saw the piano sheet music. i can read a piano sheet music with notes and be able to play it on guitar at a glace.

cheers

lon

[Thendix]

Wow haha I loved this song. I'd just leave my game in for a bit on this part and listen to it, was a great tune. And you just make it so much better. It amazes me you can play this on a guitar.

Love your work!

Thend.

[lonlonjp]

hahaha... even me too.

i did not think that it could be arranged on solo guitar. However, when i started arrangeing and playing this song, it turned out to be very enjoyable.

cheers

lon

[Cervan]

hahahhaha i never heard somone else play this on guitar yet. sooo many memories, <3 your work :D

[lonlonjp]

hahaha... indeed.

at first i myself thought it absurd to play it on solo guitar. so i neglected this song.

but a YouTuber requested me to arrange and play it.

at the begining, i did not think it possible... but later i could somehow^^

i really appreciate your comment.

cheers

lon

[Xxfinalfantasyx]

Wow you are simply amazing! Was woundering if you would be interested in trying some Chrono Trigger songs as well?

[lonlonjp]

Thanks i have never played it but it may worth trying...^^ there are so many requests which i could not hundle by myself. lol

[kemnp05]
