Dude, this is wonderful. It's killing me to hear it, though, and I don't mean that in a bad way at all. It's like every wonderful memory I've ever had with my brother, who I grew up playing the game with, is hitting me all at once. Fitting, since he moved to Finland, life's real world version of Snowman. This was also his favorite song from Earthbound..
This is so masterful, I've literally never seen any cover on youtube that even comes close to half of the beauty of this cover. The only disappointing part is how it ends! I only hope one day I can come close to making music this beautiful!
Keep rockin' man, you're incredible at what you do man.
You truly captured the essences of this wonderful song... But what i love the most is how you truly made it your own and made this song sing so beautifully. Truly you have a Gift and I thank you for this.
@TheStapleman Means a lot, man. Thanks. When people show their appreciation for my videos it inspires me to make more. It's been way too long since I uploaded something. Expect a lil' something soon. :)
Wow dude your background fits the music perfectly; I'm guessing that's your window with the curtains down and how the light shines through the creases, Nice. Yes your efforts are well spent, hope to see more vids from you. Gr8 job and thank q 4 sharing.
This is beautiful...it captures the feeling of the original's setting so well. Very nice job with the delay and reverb; you balanced that really well, and played at a very smoothly. If you don't mind a little constructive criticism, I think the scales at 0:49 and 1:07 would sound a lot nicer if you played them more legato; as in, picking them lighter and letting the notes ring more. You're good, so I'm sure you know what I mean XD
Really, good job. It was a nice thing to hear on Christmas.
Absolutely loved this video when I saw it earlier this year, and by chance I've wound up back to it once more. I really, really love your flavor of this classic. Thank you, so much.
Thank you for your kind comments, man. They're very encouraging. I haven't posted a video in a long time, but something tells me there'll be one coming soon!
Unfortunately, no tabs exist for this (that I know). I figured it out, by downloading a couple of midi files of the song on vgmusic, and I listened to it about 100 times, getting every single note down. It took a while, but it works! I might make some tabs for it when I have time.
No problem! And actually, another thing I do is open the file in QuickTime Player and then go 'Window > Show A/V Controls' and from there you can adjust the playback speed. You can slow the song down a bit, and it helps for certain parts where there's too many notes going on.
is that steel string cuz it really sounds like nylon string but it looks like steel string. im gonna assume you made it sound like that when you plugged it in to your computer. very nicely played! :)
Yeah, it's a steel string. I kind of added some of effects to make it sound better, but I never intended it to sound like a nylon-string guitar. Pretty cool you heard it as such though.
I don't know the song but it's beautiful :-) I don't know how to do that double track when it includes video as well as sound but my ears tell me that you have it lined up perfectly ! 5 stars!
gotta love this cover :)
