"M" FFVI Relm Theme

[justa16thnote]

This is Uematsu's most beautiful character theme. It was not wasted either. Relm is so cute.

[iGPK1987]

Your a beast!

[Clickykid]

Awesome but still an extremely sad song like Forever Rachel

[ImyManz99]

Must take a lot of skill to translate all those tracks into 1 instrument. Impressive.

[OXG2221]

Beatiful

[wendellcrossley]

Wonderful

[tuffasgong]

She was one of the strongest characters, you could copy any creature with her paint ability

[lonlonjp]

@tuffasgong True^^

[realhxq]

[VegasBilgeRat]

[Y2H]

Which model is this?

Im thinking of getting a concert Contreras by the way hes my favorite spanish luthier after Aparicio.

[ChaosClover13]

I was wondering if you did one for Celes yet?

[psirou]

OMG! First video of yours I see and its from my favorite FFVI theme!

Kudos to you!

Any chance of you doing Relm's theme from the "world of balance", you know the one with less instrumentals in the game version.

Keep up the good work!

[lonlonjp]

Thanks finding me among the vast sea of YouTube videos ^-^

[psirou]

What's even more amazing (other than your guitar playing of course) is the dedication, courtesy and kindness you show towards us mere mortals which transpires through your words!

You sound like a good man lonlonjp! ;o)

[Overswarm]

I'm guessing no one has the tabs to any of your stuff, huh? :\

[lonlonjp]

There are some videos, you can find a guitar tabs on sale^^ please see "more info" of each video. Please also note that i have not earned a penny from my music works ;)

[Overswarm]

You should earn a lot of pennies for your hard work! You have brought joy to everyone. :)

[lonlonjp]

Thanks for your encouragement^^

[MidgarZolom]

すぶらしい！

lonlonjp様とギターは一つの事になったと思いました。（­笑）

リルムのテームはいつも好きだから、この出演を聞くのことは嬉し­いです。安らかな感じだなぁ

Not sure if my　japanese made complete sense, けど、練習のためにします。

[lonlonjp]

[LookSquirrel]

My friend let me borrow this game,and once I heard this theme I was suprised to see you've done this also!Man you have good taste in music.Love that bend.

[lonlonjp]

Thanks watching this video and your compliment^^

Due to few number of Views, i was thinking to delete this video from YouTube, but with your encouragement, i will keep this for a while.

[kaelBarak]

never get tired of that bend =)

[lonlonjp]

lol thanks watching this video again!

i really appreciate your kindness. ;)

[brengun42]

OUT-STAND-DING.

I once played through that game just to get to her theme, and kept the save point to access it anytime I wanted to.

I have to know; are you in standard tuning? I've been a DADGAD'er for just about 12 years now, so my rendition is of course quite a bit different (your is more accurate, and I'd like to learn it!!).

[lonlonjp]

Thanks watching my video and your nice comment =D

Regarding your question the tuning is

EbAbDbGbBbEb

Thus it is in an original key as of game sound track.

cheers

lon

[chopinion]

I liked that you didn't forget the twang at 1:40 haha nice job! Final Fantasy 6 had such great music... Could you please work on 'Mystic Forest' and 'kids run through the city corner' I wouldn't pester you so, but it's only because you're so good! Keep up the fine work

[lonlonjp]

Thanks chopinion for your comment^^

As for Mystic Forest, my arrangement has been partially done and stopped for weeks.

hahaha... with no particular reason.

regarding Kids run, please see Kabukibear83 video on YouTube, he is my friend musician and superb.

cheers

[Xxfinalfantasyx]

Beautiful guitar.

[lonlonjp]

Thanks daowuwei in South Africa... :)

i have seen your beautiful Dao Wu Wei flower video... :P

It is indeed beautiful. We acquire something everyday.

cheers

lon

[deernardz]

I love this, especially the part that starts at 0:42, it sounds like 2 guitars. Thank you so much for this.

[lonlonjp]

Hi! deernardz, my friend.

Thank you so much for your kind remark... :D

cheers

[ShaolinExile]

A brash young artist

Uses the magic within

To give canvas life

I always felt Relm was one of the strongest characters in FFVI, at least when referring to inner strength, because of how much loss she was able to overcome at such a young age and still have grace and poise, tied in with a little snappy wit and impulsiveness.

Beautiful, my dear friend. You have managed to capture the soul of this song. When I heard the warping noise of the strings I had chills.^_^;

Thank you.

~ShaolinExile

[lonlonjp]

i appreciate your comment, ShaolinExile, my friend.

i will copy & paste some of your words to "More info" of this video.

i too think the warping note is a wonderful spice of this song.

cheers

lon

[righteousham]

Beautiful, you have done it again.

[lonlonjp]

Thanks righteousham for your nice comment and subscribing... ^^

cheers

lon

[AsakuraMyahle]

That's just incredible! I was longing for hearing your version of Relm's Theme, and here it is, better than I expected!

[lonlonjp]

i am glad that you, AsakuraMyahle, enjoyed this video... :D

cheers

lon

[Crystalkatana44]

You played this song very well. Good job.!!!!

[lonlonjp]

Thanks Crystalkatana44, my friend... :)

[jnclassicalguitarist]

Another great performance, Lon!!

Regards,

Julie

[lonlonjp]

Thanks Julie, a beautiful guitarist on YouTube... :)

Today it is raining here in Japan.

The rain brings a lot of flowers in full bloom soon.

cheers

lon

[pongopigmayiss]

Yes! Thanks for doing this one!

[lonlonjp]

Thanks pongopibmayiss.

The music sheet available on website for free is lacking 16th note arrpegio, which gives this music a magical feeling. So i just added them by ear. It's that simple... :)

cheers

lon

[blitzwater]

Sounds beautiful nice performance XD

[lonlonjp]

Thanks blitzwater... :)

i love your father's performance so much.

Please say hello to your dad.

cheers

lon

[vangheald]

Very well played. I loved it, would love to learn to play this song in the future. Thank you lonlon for the great music

[lonlonjp]

That's sound pretty, vangheald.

I do not know the reason why, but there is no sheet music available either piano or guitar which accurately describes the original sound version. So i could not help but arrange it by my ear only. It's simple song but a bit interesting and magical. i wish this video be of some use.

cheers

lon

[vangheald]

I will make use of your video, heheheh. I can learn it if I can put my effort into it, like I did on some songs 2 year back when I started playing guitar. Thank you again for this great opportunity, to let me experience your style of guitar.

[lonlonjp]

Thanks vanheald, my friend for posting your comment on this video...:P

cheers

lon

[thatguy431]

This is just beautiful! Your arrangements are always so nice to hear! It seems youre practically arranging the entire FFVI soundtrack!

As always, your playing is incredible! :D

[lonlonjp]

Thanks thatguy431 for your posting a nice comment on this video... :)

My next FFVI video has not yet decided. Instead i will upload "a Medley" not from FF series. Then FF again? i do not know at this moment.

cheers

lon

[TAKENnameARGH]

Tis a really nice tune.

Im having my first gig ever this saturday, any tips for calming my nerves? You being an accomplished street musician.

(I was thinkin of having a beer, haha)

[lonlonjp]

Beer is nice, TAKENnameARGH.

i am an office worker, working 9am to 9pm. i enjoy being a street musician, nowadays only once in a month, on weekend only in front of the Ghibli Museum... hahaha... :D

My next video will be "a Medley" for a Japanese office workers, using jam-packed train everyday... in order to calm their nerves a bit, if possble... ^^

cheers

lon

[gizmosVT]

It always amazes me how you can arrange these songs so well and, on top of that, get them up to a very high standard of playing - all in such a short period of time!

Hats off to you. This is very good.

[lonlonjp]

Thanks gizmosVT for watching my new video and posting a nice comment... :D

Now 1:34am in Japan. I'll sleep...^^

Good Night
