  • u have the best so far. :D could you reupload the piano sheets?

  • I love your version! Could you please reupload the piano sheets? I'd love to have them! Thank you so much! :)

  • The title is Somnus - Nemuri, not "nemoris." That's just a common mistake. Good job on the song, though.

  • Oh no! no more megaupload.. the link is broken >.< can u re-upload the music sheet? please and thank you :)

  • @everyone who's still responding to my critique:

    I posted my opinion and you are free to have your own, however, it has been a year since my post. With all due respect, please stop responding.

  • I think your speaker wasn't doing the sound justice... Either that or you weren't easing up enough on the sustain pedal xD however, still really amazing ^^

  • My Opinion:

    -Beats and timing is excellent.

    -Impressive, sound like cover version of original Somnus Nemoris, but not that accurate from original video.

    -Played extra melody, some bass sound(left hand) sounds definitely wrong at @1:31 , left hand should be played (A, E(flat), A.). Other miss sound can be found.

    GJ, *Thumb up*

  • Heavyondagrind's version is better.

  • Good game! you know very good playing the piano.^^

  • This is excellent Head Up:)

  • hey, you can find plenty of sheet music @ sheetsearch . com

  • i think the way the camera captured the sound of him playing doesn't do justice to his actual playing.

  • @d1p This is what the actual song sounds like, though. The one you mentioned is barely anything like the actual version.

  • i love it D: < *O* x33 

  • 0:00 - 2:23 was best part

    i hate 2:24 cause it ended :(.........then there was replay :D

  • Man you Rock ;)

  • this is the best final fantasy song ever! i dont care what anyone says lol

  • jw, measures 21-30, what are you doing with the bass chords? i really like the sound but i cant figure it out xD

    also just listened to heavyondagrinds version..i like that intro lol, any chance you know what chords those are?

  • jw, measures 21-30, what are you doing with the bass chords? i really like the sound but i cant figure it out xD

  • Si haces acordes arpegiados, escribe en la partitura que son acordes arpegiados. -_-U no me gusta.

  • lol what's with the "OOhhhh" at the end?

  • I DEMAND AN MP3! in HIGH QUALITY

    THIS IS FUCKEN AWESOME!!!

  • This is one of the better arrangments I have heard.

  • nice try

  • what book of chopin is that on your piano?

  • "MY TRANSCRIPTION DONT STEAL"

    But you already stole it, unless I'm wrong to assume you didn't in fact ask the current copyright holders for permission to execute this publicly.

    Anyhow, I enjoyed the transcription. Could use more fine-tuning, but overall good work.

  • So when I download your version I only get the like....simplified sheet. is there one with all your fancifications? ^_^

  • best version on youtube

  • This is pretty good, but could use improvement. It's simply to heavy. It lacks elegance and coherence. The problem could be in the mic or my speakers, but I'm hit with a thousand notes all at the same time and can barely hear the melody for the harmony. For that reason, this version is second to HeavyOnDaGrind's.

  • @d1p oh well. at least more people like the sound of this.

    i posted mine like half a year after his. and i have more views and favs.

  • @d1p i see what you mean about the elegance however this one has more intense emotion feel to it compare to HeavyOnDaGrind's. this one sounds more like a battle theme, while the other one seemed more like for the intro.

  • @d1p

    Heavy's also using a keyboard and not a piano. He probably doesn't have touch sensitivity on or activated on his keyboard, therefore the notes blend in a better way. Heavy's version is not better, I think. This guy's playing on a real piano and I think power comes from those bottom end notes, which is what's to be expected. Yeah, it drowns a bit of the melody out, but you gotta blame the piano more than his playing.

    Good job, guy. I really liked it.

  • @kkeelan

    Well, it's him who's playing the piano. A bad workman always blames his tools. Not to say he's bad, but he could use improvement (don't we all). Touch sensitivity has nothing to do with it. If he wants to get better (he's already great) he should ease up on every thing but the melody. He's good and I appreciate his style, but he needs to refine it some.

  • @d1p GTFO.

  • @d1p idk i think its his mic, cuz from what im getting out of the sheet music, it sounds just fine....

  • @theaznkid92 That could be it. 

  • @d1p yeah i checked his other music vids..the crappy mic is a consistent problem..but the actual playing sounds amazing ;)

  • @d1p Its the piano, its either out of tune or just a bad piano. I myself have a shitty piano and really notice the difference when I play on nicer pianos.

  • You are fucking GOOD!! What the hell!!! (O_O)

  • wads wif the arm movements ? :-P

  • Could you also put a download link in the description that isn't saved as a .rar file? Please :P

  • oh man,

    this is great!!!!!

  • awesome but too short :'(

  • the way you played it....AMAZING

  • damn I can read sheet music like that!

  • Your Asian switch went off at 1:39 lol jk Amazing work.

  • lol 20,000 of these views are from me.. i love this

  • dude how did u find and can u send the sheet music for this song

  • @vyriss30 lol. because i made it lol.

  • Out of all the people who have filmed themselves playing this on Piano, this one is the best.

  • What song is this? In ff 13?

  • @Triplelayers

    it's not in 13, it's in versus 13.

    and because vsxiii isn't out yet, this is the music found in the trailer

  • @Triplelayers

    it's not in 13, it's in versus 13.

    and because vsxiii isn't out yet, this is the music found in the trailer

  • can u put a tutrial on how to play this??

  • oh and also how long did it take you to learn this song? I'm curious.

  • this one took a bit longer than my other ones. about 3-4 hours in total for listening up, finding good accompanying style for my arrangement, and practising.

  • that was really good. i gotta learn this too =0

  • your transcription seems to be the most accurate out of all the others uploaded on YouTube so far. thanks for uploading! now I can play Somnus on my piano :)

  • you are absolutely amazing.

    my ears were crying with happiness

  • omfg you have to marry me xD

  • dang... you good..

    (calm down.. its a piano... take your anger out with boxing!)

  • hey this is amazing man... if it is possible can u send me a midi version of this

  • Thank you so much for the sheets! I am going to try to learn this.

  • May I knw how to find the music sheets? Pls? =)

  • Look in the description. Download the file from there. If you have WinRAR, you should be able to extract the file once downloaded.

  • Hey thx man... =)

  • Bravo~!

  • Beautiful. Love the Penguin Metronome. Adds a nice touch. ;)

  • your awesome man and the game havent even came out yet

  • hey man this is sooo amazing... its the best version ive heard.... i was wonderin if it was possible for u too do a midi version of this

  • That was amazing!!! A job well done. Man I can't wait for the game to come out!!!

  • yooo u fucking made this!!!!!!.....ur my idol bro

  • AWESOME!!!! you're good... Damn, I wish I was that good! I tried down of sorrow, and I thought that was difficult... That heavy part from somnus Nemoris is ten times the difficulty ö 5 STARS!!!

  • This is epic. You have a fantastic feel for dynamics.

  • How did the "nemoris" creep into the title?

  • If you look at the track on Yoko Shimomura's "drammatica," the track is listed as "Somnus." I'm just wondering why it's called "Somnus Nemoris" in some instances.

  • the one on Yoko Shimomura's Drammatica album is called "Somnus", while the one in the FF13 trailers is called "Somnus Nemoris". it's the same thing, really. I don't know why they changed the title.

  • The reason why everyone calls it SOMNUS NEMORIS is my error. I once posted in several forums that the title was written in wrong Latin, it shouldn't have been Somnus -Nemuri-, but according to Latin grammar Somnus Nemoris (dream of the wood).

    After that I realized that NEMURI is the Japanese word for Dream or Somnus. So the right title is indeed Somnus, or Nemuri in Japanese.

  • oh I see. I didn't know that. interesting .thanks for clearing that up!

  • what's a sustained pedal foot???

  • Its the thing u step on so the note is sustained even though u let go of the key.

  • to hold out the notes longer

  • dude... you need to move your sustained pedal foot more.

  • its not slow . its actually how its post to be .

  • amazing!!! i wish i could play like you

  • nice job man

  • wow you play as good as me^^ but like me I think your missing the emotions per stroke. probably cause we haven't truly played FFXIIIvs to capture its magic. by no means am I dissen you it's actually praise. B-E-Z & Keep Up Good Work^^.

  • it is the best i've seen so far <3

  • you add your style into the music, that is nice, but i think you can play it slowly in the begining,i think you are the best piano player for playing somuns nemoris.^.^

  • it's a little slow but still so so beautiful

    u r gifted keep up the good work

    any way i made a video from the 3 trailers of FF v xiii so go chick it out

    i hope u like it

  • A couple of errors, but nonetheless, I'm impressed.

  • Would love to see what you could do on a grand piano dude. The best rendition I've heard of Somnus, well next to the original

  • you are the best piano player i have ever seen. You do grades right? you look like your a professional

  • WOW, i never liked piano that much, but hearing u play made me change my mind :D

  • absolutely beautiful! great job!

  • waaaa!! its soo nice and tense jus like the song.. haha nice job ^_^

  • This is F'in AWESOME!! I just downloaded the sheet music (waayyy better then the Ronin version). I haven't REALLY played in years but you've just given me a piece I feel I need to learn! Thank you and you are extremely talented, make sure you spread it to others!! soo many people need to hear what you can do!!!

  • Awsome! xD

    but... I can't download the file because I don't have winrar program... :'(

  • Type winrar on google , im sure alot of sites will pop up , where you can download it =]

  • zoooooooooomg wow. i'm downloading the sheets at the moment. i'm singing this song for my school music competition (which is maaaaaajorly competitive), so is it ok if i use your sheets for the accompanyment? ^_^

  • Comment removed

  • I think this could be a lot better if you stopped playing multiple notes when you should just play a single notes, it seems like you're showboating right now.

    Having said that, I think you're very skilled.

  • Holy fuck!

    Omg Thats so tank and pro mangs!!

    Good Jobbb!!! ; )

    (Y)

  • brovo! that was excellent!!

  • Wow man great work! your really good!

  • Thank you for the sheet this the best cover so far that i can find in youtube

  • faaar the best cover

  • oh man this is awsome i have load the song

  • DUDE!!! THIS IS FUCKING AWESOME! i really liked the improvisation!

    Good work

  • thank you so much for the piano sheet i have my own version but not as good as yours

  • you have done the best transcription for it

  • I thought this one was closer to the original than "heavyondagrind" though they're both good. And I know about piano and music specially about playing by ear. But I guess people hear different things based on experience and training.

  • best version I've come across so far!! Thanks a lot man :) I'm gonna learn this now

  • Your arrangement is absolutely perfect - I love it! However, I'm trying to open your sheet music using WinRar, and I'm getting an error message saying that the archive is corrupted. I've tried to open it on a few different computers, but I've gotten the same message on all of them. Is there any way you can upload the sheets on an image hosting site and then post the links? I totally understand if this isn't a possibility, I just adore this arrangement and would love to be able to play it! :3

  • do you hav Gif picture image openers?

  • Yes, I've tried all of them. I'm pretty sure it's the archive itself. D:

  • lol...? but like 6 people downloaded it and gave me feedbak no problem, also 3 of mi firends got it and printed it off and showed me, they got it from the same web as well =/

  • Hm, that's funny. But alright, I guess I'll just keep trying until it works! Sorry for bothering you. :]

  • also wont work for me, but oh well, I put up my own version of this yesterday if you guys want to check it out, although I don't have sheetmusic. XD sorry.

  • coooooooooooooooolllllllllllll­lllllllllleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeo­ooooooooooooooooooooooeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssssss­ssssss

  • WOW best piano ver. of somnus that i've heard this far really amazing...xD thankx

  • Amazing!!!

    You wouldn't happen to have the sheet music in another file type, would you?

    I've tried Winrar but it slowed down my laptop a bit...

  • Some of the notes in this version (Although done well) Does not feel as epic as in the real version :( (1:16 to 1:25) Some notes sound off, try to fix that and make it sound more... Eh.. You know, the way the real version is lol.

    Good arrangement though.

  • lol.

  • also, the sheet isnt as hard as the one in the vid here, so learn it :D

  • Hey man, what's up? Wwesome arrangement, best one i like so far... very POWERFUL!

    Do you have sheets for the one you played in the vid? Cos that one sounds more... well... EPIC!

    Cheers man, keep it up!

  • Awesome!!

    This totally Cool!~!~!~!

    You're good arranger xD

    I wana learn your version but it's looks kinda hard xP

    I'm only 1 year experienced piano player so it's hard...

    I admire you :3

    Keep up your good work xD

    5/5

  • lol.... i cant see any other good arrangements yet.. but thank u :)

  • 2000 views but just 20 ranking and comment?thats not fair.

  • wat u mean. is that good or bad?

  • Bad...Over 2000 people came to this video enjoyed it and walked away without commenting or at least ranking....only 24 people did. thats not fair they are a bunch of asshole if you ask me. this vid deserves to be ranked to the max 5 stars by each ppl who enjoyed this. this is awesome :)

  • lol thx

  • I guess she/he means just deserve more ratings and comments...but it's almost always the case that just one in thousand is rating a video^^.
