"E" Besaid Island FFX-2

[TurboBabyPuncher]

I recall there being a tab for this at some point, does anyone have it? This arrangement is fantastic.

[metallicaband]

Will you please consider adding tabs for your old FF recordings? I'll gladly pay to download them =). 

[saligaorigin]

@lonlonjp

I don't see it. :(

[lonlonjp]

@saligaorigin

woops sorry. I thought that I had uploaded it already but it had not actually.

[StrangeMwarn]

You sir, are amazing.

I've been listening to your music for awhile now, i'm frustrated a bit though.

You've not put tabs up anywhere yet, and it seems as though that all of your tabs have been pulled from games tabs. I, like many people, can't play just by seeing you do it, i don't want to sound like a naggy little brat, though.

So i'm just hoping you add tabs somewhere eventually.

[itsRawqit]

i seriously dont understand how people could dislike some1 who puts love into their music like this guy i meant come on D: music is beautiful made with love.

[ComptonAssColin]

I don't understand why so many people ask for tabs! Any video is more than many of the greatest guitarists had when starting out! You think Jeff Beck had YouTube? Reading music is fine, if you like being booksmart with an instrument, but you'll never truly understand where all of its sounds lie unless you can close your eyes and feel them out.

-Freeze frame on every chord change; remember its sound, and try to match it. Record (tab) the position of your hand for your own reference. Voila!

[Jobbeins]

Actually , how metronom speed for this song?

I've try to play slowly for sure but it's not easy while playing bass string with thumb.

[Jobbeins]

absolute brillant :)

[Mattbroad1994]

lovely guitar, and amazing playing, nice one

[Bentonmaru]

Also, the guitar in video is beaaaautiful :]

I bet it plays really well.

[Bentonmaru]

This song is so fun and mellow to play.



[delmago1]

really nice and nice arrangement! one of the better tunes from X-2

[GeddyLeeYYZ]

*shows guitar in front of camera* "This is a real guitar i am playing ladies and gentlemen and this is no magic trick. Everything done in this video is 100% real. I know, amazing isn't it."

[lonlonjp]

@GeddyLeeYYZ

You are absolutely right^^

Thanks for your comment =)

[GeddyLeeYYZ]

@GeddyLeeYYZ i've kept up with your videos for 2 and half years lonlon, Love all your videos, i'm working on getting you canonized as a saint. haha

[Khievin7]

I am so jealous of your guitar skill!..i wish i can play like you;p....Keep up the wonderful playing^_^

[SharpStrife]

Actual tear jerker.

[streetskater03]

Wow, this is so awesome. I wish I could play guitar in this style. I'm lost without a pick, lol. I'll learn one day though.......one day.

[FrogMast3r]

if jp stands for japan, then what does lon lon stand for? =london? lonley? sry i ama just little curious

[ApArmourer]

Thank the lord I found this video. Okay, so I have an EKO Pilgrim P8 or something, and its from 1965 and made in italy. IS that rare?

[JPili1]

@ApArmourer 1965 sounds rare to me but I wouldn't know :)

[FFX2ME]

Final Fantasy songs are always beautiful on the guitar :D and looks really fun to play too?

[A1i1988]

hoho man.. u ruled it

[blitsheart]

Man, I really love this, I just hoped that you did a longer version of this cuz it's really awesome.

[ProMarkChris]

Would love to see a cover of 'Dust to Dust [Oerba Village Theme]' from FFXIII. It's mellow, slow and almost apocolyptic. Reminds me a lot of 'Someday the Dream Will End' when you're transversing the Zanarkand ruins in FFX.

[OrcWyvern]

dude.... how many guitars do you have?!!!!

[lonlonjp]

@OrcWyvern haha^^

this is not my guitar xD

i borrowed it from an old vintage guitar shop, Blonde on Blonde in Shomokitazawa, Tokyo =D

[jason854656]

@lonlonjp ah to be in tokyo, you're so lucky !

[takeitorleaveit7]

@lonlonjp how could the lend it to you? o.O'

[AshISMusicallyHungry]

amazing . learning this ASAP ^^

[tayrobinson123]

lol

[OmnipotentO]

Lets go beat up that "1 dislike" person

[ffdaydreamer]

awesome



[james10492]

Thanks for confirming, this video has been a real inspiration. Keep up the good work!

[james10492]

to the author, are you playing this in drop D? it looks like you are playing the F# on the 4th fret and the G# on the 6th, is this the only deviation from standard tuning?

[lonlonjp]

@james10492 haha^^

You are absolutely right.

i love playing on Dropped -D tuning often because it enlarges the possiblity of guitar and resemble the tuning of an old nice Lute a bit... just a bit though =D

[james10492]

that is actually beautiful

[DancingFlameDragon]

This is one of my favorite tracks in FF X-2 (and possibly the only piece that I actually like better than it's FFX counterpart).

It sounds awesome on guitar; thanks for uploading!

[Enkhmurun]

Indeed, he is not an average.. Live forever lon xD

[jnclassicalguitarist]

Awesome!!!!

[lonlonjp]

@jnclassicalguitarist haha^^

Thanks for your watching, Julie, my friend guitarist =)

[mivkayla]

[LAMCL23]

I love this track, thank you so much for doing such a tranquil song. At this time in my life, it really brings me back to being myself... I cry and am humbled again. <3

[DZLEsmash]

Ahh my friend, another great upload! Nostalgia is such a great thing. Keep on doing what you do best, and SWEET guitar!

[Too13lue4U]

[JPHJ14]

OMG i love those strings ur using what are those? they sound different from nylon

[Nicolasdbz1]

Awesome as always :D you're awesome and you showing your guitar is something that we can not see a lot of people doing it makes the video even greater congrats ;)

[SwordofLigth]

Ur playing made me forget the cold weather outside and rather think of a warm summer day^_^ Love this=)

[ixnaru]

liked on the first 40 sec playing! JKFHSZBGJDBGDFJ FFX!! you are awesome, lonlon-san!

[accountfor1reason]

I had to play it a second time to make sure it really was as perfect as I thought it seemed to be.

[155Skipper]

!!!!!!!!! WOW!!!!!!!!!! amazing yet again....how do you ever manage to do all of this....do you get tabs or make it up yourself?

[MarrickFait]

One of my favs, xcellent job sire. *bows*

[GurkeUnforgiven]

Maybe I'm not the oldest gamer, but i've played all ff games, and almost ervery track of you reminds at the time i have played it and that's just incredible.

I have maid a playlist aof more than 50 covered songs of you, and i'm very thankful, that you spend so much time in guitar playing, only to make youtube watchers like me, enjoying this great music.

You're just awesome, and i can't get enough of you :D

[kou777kou]

1 person don't have a heart

[saedt]

Passing sorrow from Final Fantasy IX

[Shiruban]

One day lonlon will probably stop posting ... And that day, the Earth will be in BIG trouble i'm telling ya !!! XD

more than 220 tracks covered so far.

If I'm generous and say an album may contain 10 tracks, it'll make 22 albums ... It's simply incredible.

Lonlon you're the best !!

[lonlonjp]

@Shiruban haha^^

As long as you support me, i will keep on uploading =D

it may be a bit hard sometimes, but it gives me great pleasure as well!

[anadus7]

@lonlonjp lonlon

if u ever ran out of tracks to cover, could pleeease do some tracks from pokemon games? :)

I'm sure Verdanturf town theme would sound great on a guitar!

[LAMCL23]

@Shiruban that's so true! He is one of the best guitarists on youtube!

[Enkhmurun]

@Shiruban Good thing that average Japanese person's lifespan is far more higher than ours ^^

[chukkyjr]

@Enkhmurun and on top of that, lonlonjp ain't average japanese person

[Hailstormful]

@Shiruban Must agree with yu... if Lonlon decides to sell CD/DVDs, he's gonna swim on his own cash

[Seljalandfoss]

Absolutely beautiful, as always

[akiramoh]

it's very beautiful lonlon! ..... i love all your videos,and can you play paine 's theme from FFX-2 , it's a very beautiful song with a jazz-blues style !

[KennyCleod]

so beautiful and relaxed my mind during work :) thank you Lon Lon!

[h0kut3n]

next is sight of spira!

[h0kut3n]

just kidding you already did that <_<

[zdaibs2]

lonlonさんのアレンジはどのアレンジより好きです。私もl­onlonさんくらい弾けたら最高ですが、まだまだ・・・。練習­の励みになります!!

[CrimsonPikachu]

I HAVE to learn how to play this arrangement, It's the perfect duration and difficulty =]!

[HowdyAntti69]

That is very very sexy guitar!! Wish I had one!

[MegaDethRulezd00d]

Ahhh lonlon i thought this was the Besaid from just FF10.. This is still very amazing though i like it :)

[alucarddan]

Once again lonlonjp my friend you're making an amazing performance, congratulations and thank you very much for sharing your talent!

[Gates06]

lovely guitar, well played lonlon

[anti666oo]

Amazing, thanks for sharing =)

[rafnocx]

wowowowowowowow :D

great work lonlon!

[frankzy89version2]

i like the guitar !! especially the fret board..

[RedFoxExtreme]

Tab for this song is now available, it's within darkyle99 channel or gametabs, Thumbs up so other people can see it.

[FF4eternity]

Very pretty lonlon. Nice interpretation

[falcolink23]

ho!! lonlonjp great composer you could buy music store

[TheDarkLeoplurodon]

I really think that there would be no one better out there than lonlonjp to arrange some full metal alchemist music...and i know there has to be others that agree! thumbs up this suggestion to the top if u agree! ^.^

[KiiroKame]

Is this guitar from Blonde on Blonde as well? How many guitars does that shop have? o_o Nice arrangement as always lonlon. :D

[lonlonjp]

@KiiroKame haha^^

Yes! there are many old guitars to be recorded and viewed =D

i will play them one by one.

What a wonderful journey!

[SalemJeanetteful]

@lonlonjp :0 Are you buying them all to record different songs?

[lonlonjp]

@SalemJeanetteful haha^^

No, i just borrowed them... one by one... for free =)

The shop owner is such a nice person, who loves old vintage guitar so much.

He is glad to listen to his guitars on YouTube.

[ToxicPanacea]

This put a smile on my face. :D

[FallenAngel101]

oh my...this is absolutly amazing. I enjoy all your arrangements...this is fabelous!

[MatheuxD]

Another great job! Plz never stop playing!!

[koeix682]

amazing arrangement, keep up the good work sir lonlon

[imanewguybastard]

Why do you have to be such an amazing man? More importantly, why does Youtube give us a choice to thumbs down it? It knows we won't.

[Kyenard]

impossible to thumb-down this song :)

[dannyboy11490]

amazing, i am subscribed to so many things, and there are always many new videos, but yours are the ones I NEVER skip. you are so awesome!

[ZephyrTheKid]

I get so anxious right before he plucks those first notes. Those few seconds seem to just build up this amazing tension, and when Lonlon plays, everything just seems to be okay. It's like the music is saying, "It's alright. You've had a long day. Let your stress melt away to the sweet sounds of Lonlon."

[guitarliam5]

Lonlon my friend you are insanly amazing!

[blutundeisen]

makes me miss summer

[A1i1988]

nostalgic :D

[xXxLadyGigglesxXx]

Awww, I used to love running around Besaid, just to listen to this song! Good times! ^-^

Also, there is a beautiful sound from that guitar. :D

[seg940]

New guitar lonlon? I love the color

[TKnightcrawler]

Very nice song, and nice guitar. :)

[gitarjr]

I love your videos. Your tunes inspire me and motivate me during the hardest times. God bless ya

[juliopcrj]

Is it a new guitar? I don' remember seeing you showing any guitars before playing...

And yeah, it's a beautiful piece of music, thank you for making this arrangement!

[keixoun]

Lonlon has aquired a taste for vintage guitars recently?

[samiq]

ThulsaDoom whoever you are, i really hope you plan on tabbing this out! :D *thumbs up* may encourage!

[Skyehero]

Nice one Lonlonjp.

Can i request FLCL soundtrack 1 - Rever's Edge?

thanks so much

Nice Videos btw

[ErWintersun]

you have one of the finest channels on youtube my friend!! everyone of your videos are pure gold!!

[omgthegamer]

awesome job! I wonder how this song would be if they had E string taps, somehow it came into mind while watching this video

[svfunk]

lonlon nice tune once again!

Do you think you could make an arrangement of FFIX "Hunter's Chance"? :O

I think that would be great!

[fruxelot]

You are a beast man!

allways funny to watch your videos : )

[Onionboy32]

What a wonderful guitar.

[jellofast]

hey lonlop, have you ever tried to play some dynasty warriors 4 covers? there's a song called "verge of despair", if you played that, omg.... it would be epic

[KayaButterBread7]

cool. lonlon senpai!!! you are getting more and more better !

I must train harder to catch up! recently play a bit more of eletric. watched too much K-On !!! (^u^) ww

[sushiixx]

Play : Let me blow you a kiss from final fantasy x-2 .. keep up the great guitar playing!! ^^

[Tersa254]

[borregodCP9]

muy buen trabajo sigue asi lonlon! :D

[fendermac]

I love the sound of this video.The finish on that guitar reminds me of something.If I can find it I will send it to you.

[kagebushinuplate]

Again nothing but the best from lonlonjp. You make me want to buy an acoustic because playing these on an electric is a b*tch. Thank again.

[k4ba]

what means the "E" and the "M" at the begin of your title videos? =o

very nice guitar

[KNWProductions]

@k4ba E=Easy and M=Medium H=Hard (this is all in reference to their difficulty to be played)

[k4ba]

@KNWProductions ohhh thank you xD

[aamu3]

[BrentNeedham]

This piece is beautiful. I can't wait to learn it myself. Your talent is amazing my friend.

[cheddarbobhouse1]

I could spend all day watching your videos...I think I will :)

[sexifencer]

This was amazing. I almost felt like crying when I heard this. Thank you so much!

[noesupert]

awesome as usual

[Werewolf211]

I loved the arrangement :D

I've never really liked X-2, but the music was always good, so I kept going back to the game :D

[xLOLSa123]

ahh this brings back so many memories of playing the game

haha

well played!!!

[Hydramus89]

awesome arrangement! I actually haven't heard of the X-2 version... only remember the one from X but I'm sure its pretty similar.

and... no, THANK you! どうもありがとうございます!! You keep arranging and playing for us fans. I'm finally working in Japan at the moment, and if I have the time, I would love to see you performing at the Ghibli museum in Tokyo in person! Bravo!

[MiguelSly]

Nice, relaxing performance. I prefer the FFX version of Besaid's Theme, it would be cool if you could arrange that.

[Magus79]

I don't know why I laughed at the beginning. For some reason all I thought was "BEHOLD, I CAN MAKE THE GUITAR SWIM!"

Anywho, awesome again. Seems to be par for your videos. How do you consistently stay awesome? Is there a diet or something?

[Akerfeldtfan]

New guitar, eh? Looks beautiful, just like your playing

[BtTmudi]

beautifully played lonlonjp =) 

[ApelAndy]

Thanks to lonlon, I find I'm quite a good finger picker, I just can't wait until I can arrange is masterfully as him.

[lonlonjp]

@ApelAndy haha^^

It is a little cold outside nowadays.

i will be looking forward to watching your new video, my friend =)

[salsa066]

Very nice preformance!

[samiq]

wow, ive always hoped you'd do a cover of this song, deffinately a personal favourite from X-2 .. so chilled out :D great performance as always, and thankyou!

[MessagesFromEarth]

Great arrangement! I was really curious as to how you were going to put in the beat to this one.

[FatmanXVII]

Gorgeous guitar....

Listening to you play, if not to sound a bit weird, is a relaxing way to end the day. Great work my friend

[amshastronaut]

Wow, what a beautiful guitar!

[Nightxeno]

Wonderfull :) Amazing work as always my friend.
