  • Oooh, a remake of a favorite Super NES track?! I will now go and download Distant Worlds album. Anyone want to point me in the right direction?

  • Are there any lyrics to it?

  • Only second to the Black Mages version.

  • Sent chills through my skin...wow

  • God this song is amazing.

  • Such an epic song!!! :O Love for Final Fantasy all fellow readers!!

  • Wow, am I the only only one who likes Kefka AND Sephiroth the same?

    Am I the only one who likes Dancing Mad and One Winged Angel?

    Am I the only one who likes ff6 and ff7?

  • @nikotinrausch i love both dancing mad and one winged angel. but i'm not very fond of sephiroth

  • @nikotinrausch nope.

  • @nikotinrausch It's not that I don't like One Winged Angel, it's just way too short and repetitive to me. This piece is much longer, and it's come down to the point where I have never had this music loop on me while fighting Kefka.

    Also, I'm not very fond of Sephiroth, just for 2 reasons: His eodist complex that makes him more of a Lancer than a true villain, and his personality is...well, he has no distinct personality.

    I don't doubt his strengths, but I just prefer Kefka over Sephiroth.

  • @nikotinrausch That's also not to say I don't have a problem with this tune, because as much as I love this tune, it gives a feel of a theme for the villain more than an actual final confrontation.

  • @nikotinrausch Scorch A: thou art not alone

  • @nikotinrausch Don't worry, you aren't. I do find it a bit odd that so many argue over this. It's fun to nerd out over your favorite villain, but meh. I think both characters are interesting and enjoy both the battles and the music.

  • Were the earth bound papas playing this as well?

  • Please...please play this in London this year...It would be amazing to see this live!

  • The best song FF ever!!!

  • 8:21 and on... <3

    How people think One Winged Angel is the best after this is beyond me...

  • Let's bring a war... shall we... Sephiroth?...

  • <3

    5 stars!

  • VI was my first love <3

  • make translation or i will make kefka come!

  • never thought you would fell so sorry for someone so evil huh?

  • Listen to the cries of the guitar at 9:00. What a sad riff.

  • Amazing until the last movement. They really had to slow it down to play that part live. Considering the crazy time signature it uses, I don't blame them. :(

  • Play it at the same time as this watch?v=siuWZxDMGnk

  • Kefka beats Sepheroth ... at least Sepheroth isn't Necron XD

  • Sabin: Kefka! Wait!

    Kefka: "Wait", he says. Do I look like a waiter?

  • They did just find till the end where they started abusing the synth.

    I dont know why they dropped the pipe organ there... they really should have just kept it.

  • son of a submariner!!!

  • For the love of God we need a FFVI remake now

  • @mastermega8

    Engineer: Heck yes!

    Spy: Indeed *stabs Engineer*

  • eh hem... there is sand on my boots!

  • Huh. A version of my favorite song from the entire Final Fantasy series, main theme aside, with a spoken chorus within it.

    Ahem.

    TRANSLATION WANT.

  • @Pyre Agreed

  • @Pyre

    YOU CAN'T JUST REMAKE A GUY PILEDRIVING A TRAIN, IT'S NOT POSSIBLE!!!!

  • @SpontaneousPudding Of course it is! We have Tifa and Zell use Meteorstrike before,why not do the same for Sabin?

  • Crazy Clown can beats Long haired pretty boy any day.

  • Bleh! You people make me sick! You sound like lines from a self-help book!

  • Prepare for the End! NEVAAAAAAA

  • You morons are still talking sh*t about FFVII? how pathetic!

  • Sounds more like an opening song instead of an epic last boss theme. Stick to the 16 bit version.

  • dont worry guys i was just kefkaing you:) Final Fantasy is an awesome series and i like them all (except 10 sorry i really do want all the hours of my life i put into it dodging butterflies and lighting back).

  • @TheJadeEagle Ten was my favorite though... :(

  • people just get SO pissed when they read a comment they dont like on youtube...... I find it so funny! BWHAHAHAHAHAHA

  • Hating something just because a lot of people like it is stupid. This is truly a case of, "Hate the player, not the game." Yes, fan boys are irritating. Yes, I believe Final Fantasy VI is without equal in the series. But I'm not going to throw a hissy fit if someone disagrees with me. 

  • Its hard to say what game sucked in an argument composed of opinions

  • oh shit, 666 like...

  • I don't think I could ever loose the feeling of experiencing so many emotions to final fantasy music, mainly because there's a whole orchestra reviving a theme song from a game I've loved and loved and played same played! (Most the Ff's) to a huge magical experience but still, I know I'll be old and still get the goosebumps, sads, highs and anger of needing to beat some bad dude up for doing bad things....can't be one but at least it makes ya feel like a hero

  • @6darkzexion I feel the same way too! Sure some might not have the same feeling you have when you play others, but there's a reason this series is one of the best and long running to boot. All the hours you sit just to continue the epic stories, beat every sidequest, gain every weapon, summon, and everything in between. It brings so much nostalgia to be able to hear the amazing music Uematsu created for us!

    This series will always have us die hard fans to back it up.

  • @MJuematsu :D YOUR SIR ARE AN EXCELLENT PERSON!

  • It's seems weird to live a series but completely hate games with a passion in that series.... Anyone else think so? True there are those I like less than others, but come on! I love all the final fantasy games! Anyone else agree?

  • @Zyoracthebrave Uematsu said:

    Final Fantasy VI was a sort of ending point for me. Not just the music, but the whole game. I thought, if I do this work for the rest of my life, how many more games will I be able to do? With the satisfaction and excitement I felt after finishing that project, I thought I had reached my primary goal, and could quit doing game music with no regrets." (FFwikia)

    Uematsu peaked at this game. This game has THE best music of all of them, IX, X, VIII and II close behind.

  • The true Final Fantasy's are I-X (sorry but, Hironobu Sakaguchi IS Final Fantasy)

  • In the spirit of this song I'd like to propose having the dislike bar changed to the "hatehatehateHateHateHATE!!!" bar.

  • ohh the sweet music of a thousand souls screaming in unison...

  • This is a very good version of Dancing Mad, along with The Black Mages version, but still, I don't feel that any of these themes lives up to what it really should be. It needs more... DEIFICATION! (*_*)

    You know... I want to feel that chill down the spine the entire music! Or at least at most of it. (=p)

  • I'm surprised a ffVII fanboy didn't start this fanboy war.

  • i love the comments! but eat it ff8-12 fan boys! Your games suck!

  • @TheJadeEagle ...Umm... fail troll? I enjoyed ff6 as much as i did ff8

  • @TheJadeEagle trolololololol

  • @TheJadeEagle

    Except for the fact that FF7-FF9 are considered some of the best games in the whole series...

  • @Zyoracthebrave ya.... by retards and people with VERY LOW IQ's (except for 7 that is, 8 and 9? ya right and i want the hours of my life spent on ten back.)

  • @TheJadeEagle

    Look up what people say. IX is one of the most beloved in the whole series.

  • MWHAHAHAHAHA!

    

  • the guitar solo part is EPIC

  • *reads the recent fanboy argument*

    -_-' THIS is why I hate the comment section!

  • I feel sorry for this song. Why? Cause a certain ff fan-boy jackass A green bald bird*hint hint* has to ruin this page with his debauchery. You poor poor song, I'm sorry but some people get their kicks from ruining the fun for other people. ESPECIALLY!!!!! And no not caps I used the shift key. SO HA!!!

  • 6:43 :3

  • Dear fanboys: SHUT THE HELL UP AND ENJOY THE MUSIC!

  • I love all the little fan wars between each game. Is their really a point in saying those things? Square went to all the trouble of making Dissidia so you could all SHUT UP and go beat up the characters you hate.

  • This version is growing on me. I feel like this song was absolutely meant to have a chorus.

  • @Heebs1313 it was lol the original had the 16 chorus

  • This is the centrepiece of the concert imo.

    Like, seriously, half the ticket price is to go and see Dancing Mad being performed in its entirety.

    It's either that or Draco and Maria.

  • Saw this performed at the Royal Albert Hall, London 05/11/11.

    It was absolutely amazing; the highlight was the organists solo and it captured everyones attention.

    I am now convinced that if you have not experienced Final Fantasy music live, you have not experienced it at it's finest.

  • ok to all the ff7 haters... i love ff6 but ff7 was also frikkin awesome too. anything past 7? TOTAL CRAP!!!! The final fantasy series has sucked since ff8. At least Cloud wasnt a whiny little b**** or a midget(FF8 and FF10 on the first and FF9 on the second)... and for the kefka vs seperoth argument? Well both were good villians in different ways, but seperoth tried to destroy the world and kefka SUCCEEDED! Terra and Co, didnt defend the world, they AVENGED it. So Kefka wins :) BWHAHAHAHAHA!!

  • @TheJadeEagle quite the opposite both cloud and squall are emo as hell and yeah cloud was a little bitch , *i don't wanna fight meaningless fight's* yeah if that dont make him a emo i dont know what would he , plus he living zack's life.. i mean seriously he should live his own life and screw zack...and above all ff went wrong past 11 not past 7... i hate 8 but i wouldn't say its the worst, but you being a ff6 fanboy would never understand this, all final fantasy are great and have great music.

  • @linkpwnsevery1 FF6 fanboy? didnt i say i love 7 too? and 4! just not 8-10( yes they have good music, the games them selfs just suck) ESPECIALLY 10! since your a FF10 Fanboy you wont understand :)

  • @TheJadeEagle lol wrong i dont like 10 as much but was good game you'll never find which 1 my personal favorite :P the worst ff has too be 8 and 2 and 12-13 and bout it , beat them all , btw u didnt hurt my feeling since u capitalized "especially" lol can care less for ff 10 :P

  • @TheJadeEagle If Kefka destroyed the world then it would have been game over. Defaced is the word you're looking for. The only one to actually succeed in destroying a world was Kuja, Also Sephiroth didn't want to destroy the planet. Play it again and you will see why he wanted to use meteor.

    I can't stand people who rant and rave about final fantasy when they don't even know their stuff!

  • @EpicWingmanXIII uh he did destroy the world, just not all the way, sephiroth wanted to use the planed as a vessel to travel the cosmos, WHICH WOULD HAVE DESTROYED IT(Well killed everything else on it). ! I love people who talk shit about what people know, and tell them they dont know shit, when they do actually :). Kuja? ok i dont know who that is, must be a bad guy on one of the STUPID Final Fantasy games

  • @TheJadeEagle Thats what Sephiroth wanted in Advent Children yes...but not in FF7. Agagin, play the game and see for yourself what he wants. Kuja is the bad guy from FF9 and he's pretty cool. And once again, no he DEFACED the world not destroyed.

  • @EpicWingmanXIII yup that's true he wanted to make the planet bleed and absorb the lifestream that seeped out of the huge fissure left by the meteor, but then again absorbing the life of the planet would leave it as nothing more than a floating pile of rocks in space so then again it's pretty much the same thing as he wanted in advent children, just in advent children he didn't tell us his how he planned on doing it....

  • Albert Hall version was just AMAZING. I need a copy somehow.

  • Totally saw this last night (November 5th) at Distant Worlds London :D

  • @AlexPlaysGames Same! The organ in Albert Hall really did this piece justice. Fantastic to FINALLY hear it done in Orchestra.

  • 4 days till we hear this one on the grand organ of the royal albert hall !

  • @Stanelis1 I know :o) I can't wait! I don't think I'll ever want to leave that place.

  • I think I cried the entire time... This song was amazing and beautiful even back on the SNES... I have to do the Kefka laugh every time it gets to the right part as it's ingrained into my soul and must happen every single time I listen to this song whether it's part of the song or I do it.

  • they are probably doing a remastered version of ffvi for the 3ds

  • This played while they were killing Gaddaffi

  • @justa16thnote He mad

  • @justa16thnote HOW DARE YOU?? Kefka isn't any low-quality 8-bit character... He is glorious 16-BIT, AND DON'T YOU FORGET IT!

  • @terraflyer23 His laugh is 8-bit. Look at any MIDI with his laugh in it. I believe it's N-Washboard.

  • @justa16thnote Oh snap...

  • @justa16thnote what is worse; a ff7 fanboy or a ff6 hipster? THE WORLD MAY NEVER KNOW!

  • @DiagramOfTruth Depends.

    How bad is the ff7 fanboy? fanboys are always pretty stupid,because no matter what genre they are for,they completely lose sight of what they want.You can't get respect by insulting someone.Its better to talk nicely to them.Like you could say:I really liked ff7 and is one of my favorites,but i love 6 more.Its respectful and curteous,and the true ff7 fans who respect all games will respect you and even admire your honesty and good manners.

  • @piromaniac9999 ya, maybe i was being a dick but just thought it was silly you're bringing up ff7 fanboys on a dancing mad vid. stay well.

  • @DiagramOfTruth I didn't bring it up though,you did.

    You asked:What is worse a ff7 fanboy or a ff6 hipster,possibly implying that one be worse than the other.

    A fanboy is a fanboy regardless of the genre was my response.Although:FF7 does have far more fans due to how marketed and popular it is.Popularity doesn't necessarily mean better either.I've seen some very arrogant pricks in the ff6 fanbase,and some real immature assholes in the ff7 fanbase.If you don't believe me,check out egotasticripof.

  • @piromaniac9999 lol. this is a good song. enjoy it. bye

  • @DiagramOfTruth I wasn't angry,i was just commenting.

    And yes i enjoyed the song.

  • @piromaniac9999 I'm actually a FFX fanboy but a Kefka impersonator.

  • @justa16thnote That makes absolutely no sense,because if you weren't an ff6 fan,you wouldn't be doing kefka cosplay.

  • @justa16thnote You're just as bad as the FF7 fanboys. In fact, you're worse because of your superiority complex

  • @justa16thnote 16-bit

  • @justa16thnote I love every Final Fantasy and there's a reason there's so many Final Fantasy VII fans. It's because its an amazing game. No point in hating good sir, every Final Fantasy is unique.

  • @Ultimaion FFVII is a good game, a very good one in fact. It's the fanboys that make it really horrible. They ruined the gold that it was. Even with that, FFVI is still superior no matter how many hipster fanboys it gets. Kefka's amazing.

  • @justa16thnote I have to agree with you on that. If you have a different opinion to them they defend it with their life and insulting your opinion. Then again that's the case for everything really. I do agree Kefka is an awesome villain.

  • i want... a remastered version of final fantasy 6!

  • This is one of those very few songs that make me wish I could play the organ :P

  • I'm a fanboy, but I won't go out my way to argue about it haha. It's a really nice song and I'll be picking up both Distant World albums when I get paid =D.

  • Kefka's laughter represented by the 8-bit sound is the most epic evil maniac laughter in any game.

  • great music! excellent at the least! too bad i gotta deal with the squaresoft and square enix fanboy bitches below me...ENJOY THE MUSIC THE SHUT THE FUCK UP

  • Kingdom hearts and final fantasy are the best I collect both so shush let me listen to good music.^.^

  • Twenty seconds into this and I already am in love.

  • Where can I find a translation of the lyrics?

  • Where can I find a translation of the lyrics?

  • One winged angel, listen and weep XD

  • This is where the music ends. Everything after this, just suck

  • Comment removed

  • 6 dislikes...you 6 people are lucky this is from Final Fantasy 6

  • Overall its great but, WHY THE F IS THERE AN ELECTRIC GUITAR?!?!? I imagined them sending off the last pre-modern final fantasy with some, you know, pre-modern instruments? A second organ would have been MUCH better.

  • I'd like to know how many people can say they were accurately miming playing the organ parts for any part of the song while listening to this. I know I was. ;)

  • @kefkaexdeath Who wasn't!!

  • Why this performance fails: Guitar

  • @Buggaton

    But the original had guitars in it

  • @Masterblaster9001 The original at this point (I'm talking about the wanky guitar solo at the end) has a vocal sounding synth playing that part instead of a guitar which would sound awesome with a choir singing that bit like in the video "Dancing mad Sydney opera house PLAY". Although it has a poor sound quality (still remarkably good for the recording device) I think they perform the closing part absolutely perfectly. Check it out! :)

  • Still the greatest of all epic Endboss-Themes ever! A Masterpiece! Why Uematsu don't make full orchestra-Remakes of his FF-Soundtracks??? I would definitely buy it all!!!

  • This is no melodrama, this is cold, hard fact. KH is a blight on the gaming world, and a parasite on Final Fantasy.

    And finally, no. If the only way you were introduced to FF was through a Disney pandering crapfest starring a sociopathic little turd of a main character, you have no place among true FF fans. Get lost.

  • @howdareyou66 Fan Dumb: Definition- One who believes them self to be the watchdog of their fandom. In reality, they act as a snake in the manger, dividing an already broken base.

    Leave. The Final Fantasy fandom doesn't need pretentious pricks with God-Complexes like you. And, as is quite obvious, your stupidity and intolerance sicken and disturb me. I'm willing to bet you haven't even played more than two FF games, if even one.

    Back to the video: God, Kefka is the best FF villian ever.

  • Guys, it doesn't matter whether or not the game is mainstream. If its good, then its good. If its bad then its bad. Labels don't matter, the content does. Done and done.

  • one winged who? seriously this song is badass

  • MadeInVain your an ass with no taste in games i bet your one of those retards from the wargame generation

  • 5 Sephiroth's got pissed off because Kefka actually destroyed and took over the world FOR A YEAR.

  • Kefka is the most Badass Crazy Insane mothafucka in the entire Video Game History.

  • Has someone ever tried to do a remix combining Dancing Mad and O.W.A.? It'd be kickass, and it could probably bridge a long-standing gap within the respective fandoms.

    Ha, yeah right, people would still argue over who is cooler. But at least the song would kick all ass within a 100-mile radius.

  • orgasmic

  • You know Kefka and Sephiroth kinda remind me of Pinky and The Brain. One is a genius, the other's insane

  • @SeaSaltSunset Which ones which ;D

  • @SeaSaltSunset Except they're both insane. The Brain didn't want to destroy the world, he wanted to rule it, lol

  • @SeaSaltSunset Hey, that's mean. Sephiroth isn't insane, just a bit delusional.

  • one question remains...why isn't Kefka in KH? His harlequin-ish look might fit

    well, I already know the answer...he just is not as popular among non-fans

  • @Grakesch Kefka would barbecue the mouse and destroy the magic kingdom, ending the franchise...

  • Am I the only one who plays each game as they are and doesn't compare them to the earlier games? Because I seem to be the only one who likes 13, and sorta enjoys 12, and still loves VI and this amazing music.

  • @ROFLMAOtheNARWHAL i completely agree with you!

  • @ROFLMAOtheNARWHAL i loved FF13 to badd everyone else thinks its crap

  • Kefka was the best FF villain ever, and since every final fantasy keeps getting worse, he always will be :)

  • @ChoosenOneStudios That's open for interpretation.... I liked X and VII.

  • This sends chills up my very spine. I love it.

  • Does anyone know the lyrics for the last part?

  • 6:47

  • i fucking love this

  • Loved the 1st and 2nd movements of this version, but man did they butcher the 4th. 3rd wasn't that great either.

  • I would pay a lot of money to listen to that live!

  • Fuck Kingdom Hearts. Fuck Final Fantasy. Fuck this song! I'm mad!!

  • @MadeInVain Indeed, u madd.

  • guys, just calm down,

    i love both kh and final fantasy.

    i love sephiroth and kefka

    i love both the old and new square

    final fantasys 1-6 are some of my favorite games as well as 7-13

    Why do we have to argue? We all are interested in the same stuff once it comes down to it. thumbs up, if you have this same opinion.

  • @6darkzexion That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

  • @ankoripasta well it looks like a lot of other people disagree with you ;P they're all rpgs, japanese, and all made by the same company. its pretty easy to like them all. your argument is invalid. have a nice day love, <3.

  • @6darkzexion Wait so the same company means the same creative development team? I didn't know that. Thanks for enlightening me with your comments full of wisdom. I didn't know popularity was an indicator of how good something might be. I should really listen to some more ke$ha because so many people seem to love her. That means she must be good. Right?

  • Comment removed

  • @DirkOfNintendo The joke/your head

  • @DirkOfNintendo And with the FFX avatar you obviously have no sense of taste for good things either.

  • @ankoripasta I can't decide whether you're the worst troll I've ever seen, or if you're just an idiot.

  • @ankoripasta execpt ke$ha is mainstream, you cant compare it with something like kingdom hearts, on people who are into rpgs and what not are into it. And just cause you dont like something doesnt mean you have to dis the people who do. im not into ke$ha, but i dont dis her fans, people can like what they like, just cause you dont lke it doesnt mean i or others can't. just drop it, this has nothing to do with the video, enjoy the awesome music.

  • @6darkzexion

    Good god...imagine if kingdom hearts became mainstream.

    There would be fan boy/girls everywhere, and the streets would be littered with bad cosplays. 0_0
