  • 2 months later this video is still my fave compared to w3sp's video.

  • so much better than your first, youre almost there. Almost where most of us will never be............ :D

  • you're going a bit fast, faster isnt always better.

  • @AlexTehGr8 The piece is marked "presto", and this is about the proper tempo if you follow the tempo markings. Tempo's really dependent on the player/conductor/etc's taste or interpretation, but obviously there's a ball park they have to fall into.

  • Better than the first but with a few mistakes =] well done

  • 21 people don´t fight... :(

  • Yesss you played my fave part slow this time!

  • @KerryFTW which part is it?

  • cool^^

  • Some of the notes on your piano are slightly off tune, BUT I think it doesn't matter at all. It even makes this song a bit more eerie! well done, good playing.. Hard song

  • @hoan999999 Please, tell me you're kidding. ManHoPark gives me the inspiration and the will to learn this music. Such as Kevin Aprilio or even Alessandro Marino but ManHoPark show us how to play it. Plus, he has got many abilities in piano, look at his hands !

  • dang, your piano sounded way outta tune...

    other than that, you need better finger jamming speeds.

  • whoaaaa crazy! Your arrangement, or are you playing from sheets?

  • this is a cover xD

  • Comment removed

  • i'm obsessed with this song, i would like to play like you

  • the ending was really sloppy, otherwise i liked it :)

  • After Kyle Landry's version, nothing else seems to sound right.

    Awesome playing, though :)

  • goose bumps @ 1:55

  • Fantastic! 5Stars! Beautiful job!

  • On a scale to easy to very hard on difficulty meter this is Impossible. I had learned about 2 min of it then my hands got tired so then i was like f that. Great job man wish i had skill like u

  • can u make a tutorial ?

  • if u want to learn a song like this u cant learn from a tutorial get piano lessons or learn urself

  • hahaha no more back tag!

  • HOLY SHIZ! That was great!

  • *o* IM JEALOUS--

    YOU DID A FANTASTIC JOB. KEEP IT UP.

  • I love how your videos show the progress you can get with time and practice

  • You certainly improved over the last video! Well done! I wish to learn rhis, but the best I could manage is To Zanarkand. I'll keep trying and see how things go. I gave 5 stars to your last video, I'd give more to this one if I could but... 5 is the limit =/

  • apart from a few mistakes, that was awesome!!!

  • very Impressed!

  • so fast

  • pff you have epic skills dude, thanks for the video!

  • Excellent job man!

    Good effort on tucking in that label this time =P

  • haha, word^^

  • very good! it sounds better than the last recording

  • U rock duuuuuudeeee!!!

    That was awesome!!!!

  • this brought back a lot of memories :D

  • its called prelude

  • It's not!

  • great job brother keep up the good work!

  • cant find a mp3 for this :(

  • I'm also practicing this,. sure is hard doing it especially since I'm only using keyboard,. so I'll have to adjust all controls when I play it on a real piano,. Also, some keys are broken. I envy people with real piano like this,. sigh,. anyway,. not giving up! ManHoPark is one of my inspirations in this piece,. Thanks a lot!

  • I know how you feel, i'm also learning this on a keyboard. How far can you play? How long you been playing piano?

  • Sorry, i'm not Hellic, but i can play the whole thing, been playing piano for 9 years. But i learned it two years ago, and now i'm relearning it again :D

  • I see,. well,. I studied playing for 2 years,. Then I stopped because of financial issues,. I wasn't even good at reading notes and playing,. So I studied on my own,. I can consider myself much better than before. I'm still working on the stacatto part. I'm almost through there,.

  • And also,. Since the keyboard is only 4 octaves on mine,. I don't do the ascending part,. I mean,. the highest part of the piece,. i go straight to the next part until another somewhat chorus part,. so to top it all (i hope u understand. it's quite hard to explain it like this) I'm almost at the Piu Mosso part.. there..

  • @Gangus90 hey i'm here. it's been a while since i accesses my youtube acct. well, i only studied for 2 and a half yrs. then the rest was self study. I was studying this piece on my own. And i already reached mostly after midway of the piece. but not that good. i can't do the octave parts. ^^

  • I bet your fingers hurt after that wonderful performance. xD But srsly, nice work.

  • Astounding to say the least...

  • Would be a delight to hear this played on a concert grand, of the likes of w3sp who has access to similar stuff.

    Nicely played its probably as true to the game as i've found on Y-Tube

  • You are my Hero.....

  • I can't imagine the work you put into this piece. You should be nothing less than proud of your ability behind the piano. Tasteful inclusions, precise pedal control, appropriate crescendo levels, its all here : D

  • Yeah, it's better with pedal ;)

  • amen to that brother

  • how long practice?

  • aahhh!!!

    my eyes cant follow your fingers!!!

    its tooooo goooood!!

  • You played beautifully! But, the parts where they were quiet it didnt sound relaxing like it used to be. BUT, it was still pretty awesome! Great Job!

  • You are amazing at this. I want to learn how to play this so bad but it is so hard and I still need to learn how to learn how to play piano. But honestly you are the coolest only because you know how to play this song.

  • Comment removed

  • Pro

  • LOVE THIS SONG

  • hahaha yea it did look like he went fastforward but still that was crazy

  • last 30 seconds he looked like he was in fast forard

    LOL

  • it was a little bit choppy but u played it very fluidly and well

  • Very good^^

    I was wondering, on the aprt from 0:35 to 0:37 do you hold the pedal constantly? Or do you release it sometimes?

  • One of my favorite Final Fantasy pieces ever. Favorite part: 1:55-2:30

  • Hah, thats funny. I should just leave those adds up cause the responses crack me up

  • huh? D:

  • 5 18 - F - Cali - Alone - Anyone wanna chat? T

  • I don't think you should announce that your alone to the world. What if someone knew who you were and they wanted to kill you? Now would be the perfect time. Man some people these days just don't care about their safety.

  • Good to see there's some reason at the internet!! Not everybody is lost!

  • Lol I honestly cannot believe you just said the words reason and internet in the same sentence.

  • Thought it was porn lol or myspace or facebook.

  • i love it!!

  • oooow i'm really jealous, i tried to learn this piece, but i wasn't good enough ^^ haha i nearly quit playing piano because of this song :P anyway... you are so amazing :) respect and 5 stars from austria

  • amazing

  • AMAZING!

  • lacks some touch, but still awesome.

  • formidable song

  • OH MY GOD*****

  • christ this is the original mathcore. the keyboard version of those who fight started it all.

  • WOW! All i can say is WOW!

    What hands! Monstrous hands! woohoo! I adore you.. Huhu, I like this song, especially when i watch Tifa's fight with loz. huhuh! Great Job!

  • Good work, I also started learning this... but i know that it will take me months to play it like you :) But I will not give up :D

  • Hell yeah, I could never play a piece that fast... I wish I had your awesome hands.

  • im tryin this tune dispite short term experience of piano.

    im lack of stamina of arms.

    so i cant play it like that.

    awesome!!

  • Dude, I'm playing all the other FF songs from the easiest pieces, such as FFVII theme and Cloud Smiles, up to the more intermediate pieces until I can actually try this one.

  • Awesome I love it! <3

    I'm so jealous I want to learn how to play the piano too =D

  • 우오 .. 잘한다... you are sooooo good !!

  • lol, i always look at your vid. when i wonna listen to this song, it's great! It helps me learn the song (kinda). Put more FF songs up, would like to hear them. Well done!! :D

  • You're good, man. =D

    Just interested, how big is your handspan? I've been trying to play this piece forever, but I have tiny hands.

    Awesome vid!

  • well i can reach 9 key span... but just barely.

  • From what I can see his hands are not that big, which makes him that much of a better player. Watch his left hand at 50, which is probably the hardest reach, he has to sort of circle his hand. Part of playing this song is really getting the most out of your span, making your pinky and thumb 180 degrees.

  • @ManHoPark i also have a 9 key hand span :) thank god :S

  • @Kibetha this piece does only go further octaves when arpeggios are played. you can do it

  • IN-SANITY.

  • amazing....

  • HOLY! :o you're damn good! :o *bows down*

    how'd u do the part towards the end when it seemed like your hands were just floating on the keys? o.o

  • If you're talking about what I'm thinking about, going up and down scales quickly is rather straightforward with a bit of practice. It looks fancy, but it's honestly not as difficult as it may appear. That said, though, this video as a whole is utterly amazing.

  • geiles lied geiles spiel ich liebe ff7

  • PLEASE!!!!Don't stop posting videos of your piano talents!You're so great...PLEASE!

  • oh is verry nice pianist is crazy this

  • Hey man can u do a drawing of Cloud please.

  • it a chinois

  • it so nice song(8)

  • OMG!!!!!!!!!! Thats like the best piano player ever!! WOW! great job!

  • WOW! Sometimes you're a tiny bit slower than original, but still freakin' amazing, man! I'm playing the piano too, but I'm far away of playing songs like that. Respect!

  • Will you guys learn if I make a tutorial for this song? It will be 2 parts, very slow. It's hard, but it's not impossible, so subscribe if you want to be one of the first one to see it.

  • There You Go!

    that was better than the other version 5/5! btw do you have the music sheets to this?

  • Very nice. I bet if u had bigger hands, u could make it flawless! But yes, it is a VERY hard song! GOOD JOB! :D.

  • awesome

  • That's actually a bloody challenging tune. Props for giving it a good go, still :)

  • nice:p

  • i love how u play this song !! every time i watch this video it makes me WOOW

  • oh wow,

    i watch this all the time you know...

    i'e tried so hard tryingto play this song...

    but i cant read music .. i can only play by ear...

    and MY GOD its hard :/

    i was reading through the comments on this this and read the one from someone who has "natural talent by playing by ear" ... bull.

    There is no way someone can play this by ear ...

    no way..

    and i agree that you cant make tutorials for a song of this difficulty, too bad :(

    but please keep up the good work :D

  • 1. I am currently jobless

    2. I do not have a gf

    3. I rarely go out to play with other people

    4. I focus strictly on developing my talents

    5. My life is often the internet

    6. That is what makes me happy.

    Now, that I have went over my life, I hope you all can agree that I am some psychotic human being that is rampant on the internet. Once again it has nothing to do with race^^.

    Lol I feel you man no sociol life + no job but wait don't tell me you live at your folks house still?

    At this age?

  • that was awesome!!!! i love this piece ever. unfortunately, it's a little bit too difficult for me. i need one year lesson, then i can play this piece.

  • Awesome playing, likewise I'm on the last two pages of the song where it starts to modulate and you get a whole lot of accidentals. I can play the rest before that quite consistently, your piano kinda out of tune, still your video aspired me to learn this like 5 months ago. (first one)

  • Nicely done (:

  • word that was sick yo, u merked it

  • Hey, I'm relearning this song, and i'm at the last two pages!

    Any tips? ;P

  • play slowly and then build speed. COnsistency is everything here. I would recommend you use a metronome at slow pace to build a sense of rhythm... Also break practice times into sesssions.

  • Natural talent exists... No you can't be born great at something, but your comprehension towards what you are talented at makes you learn it faster...

  • Hey, you cut 14 seconds off it :P I like it with more tempo. :) Nice job. x

  • A...MAZ...ING!!!!!!!

  • tutorial plis!!

  • u cant learn from just a tutorial with this song, this song way to hard to learn just bye luking at someone play

  • O_O

  • ehy bud you got my same lifestyle... but you're very better than me playing piano!

  • you are very very good!!!

  • fuck all the people who say he sucks. This was beuatiful

  • really awesome, you play very well!

  • From what I've seen from I can tell you are very talented and you played this song so beautifuly not an easy task for most 5/5.

  • Since your sooo good on playing piano, why won't you make tutorials for people for can't read piano notes, like me. Come on! nobody made a tutorial, and it doesn't take that long to do it. -.- I know I can't read music sheets, I'm a newbie.

  • well making a tutorial for hard songs such as these is impossible as no one will get very far cos its pretty complex.. unless your talking about simple ones like To Zanarakand or Ending themes or something dont ask ..

  • actually you smart ass,

    this song is dam hard and i doubt you can play it by ear and stop bragging bout your "natural talent"

    a tutorial for this song, not only would it take ages, but youd have to start of very slow so just get the sheets and learn it yourself and if you cant read notes it means your piano skills arnt that high and you shouldnt be trying this piece of music till your atleast grade 6..

  • Well "legendofzeldafanatic" I hate to break it to you like this but there is no such thing as "natural talent." The ONLY way to become great at something is through pride, devotion, enjoyment and the ability to try harder . No one is born great or "naturally talented" for that matter, all the great people in this world made their own destiny. You should learn this now while your still young so you can apply it to your future.

  • I Second that notion

  • you guys are all wrong, legendofzeldafanatic may be wrong about asking for a tutorial but natural talents do exist, some people have pride, devotion, and enjoyment, and still cant accomplish a goal or talent. Some arent even interested and have great talent.

  • I will retract my previous statement if you could give one rock solid example of " natural talent" Because To be naturally talented is be great at it the first time they even attempt something. example Bobby Fisher, one of the greatest chess players in the world. The first time he played chess he lost . and this pattern follows with all the great people on this earth. If you can find me a person that breaks that pattern let me know.

  • here's your example: Einstein hated math.

  • but was he was he born a genius ,no, and Einstien was a physicist , not a mathematician. His ability to do math is not what made him famous.

  • ofc natural talents exist... explain the kids that can play pieces from mozart when they are only 5 years old, and what about beethoven who got deaf but still could play the most difficult pieces... So think again before you say things like natural talents don't exist.

    Wonderfull playing by the way =)

  • Mozart and Beethoven are great examples of being skilled at the highest definition . But to be truly talented You don't have to learn. Mozart did become good at the piano at a very young age he still had to go the the learning process .

  • yes ofcourse they have to learn it, but the way they learn things will go much easier then when a not natural talent tries to learn something, but if you really want and are really dedicated to learn something you will succeed aswell.

  • hmm actually there was a man who was disabled, but he could play a piano peice just after a 1 time hearing. it was in the news papers a while back.

    so no he didnt have to learn it ..

  • natural talent doesn't necessarily mean you're good at it the first time you try it, because there's virtually nobody who is in that boat. I realize Einstein was terrible at math, but the fact is that although anyone who puts in an honest effort can be good at just about anything, there are some people in the world who certain skills will come easier too than others.

  • wow....

  • how long did it take for you to learn this peice?

    i started the peice yesterday. and getting there-ish.

  • this is truly awesome, i watch this vid every time i am online. alas i dont play piano myself but am a musician so can appreciate the music and skill involved. stunning work man
