[HyakushikiMasamune]

You are just awesome !

[shirohi1]

Love all your compilations well executed and also Final Fantasy piano composers are absolute magnificent, so... calm and peaceful

and I also hate the fact when people don't read the descriptions!!!

[Rocksolid88]

ff composer: Nobuo uematsu.

[chiiiman]

whats the ffx-2 song after 1000 words? pls tell me? and what version is it?

[monsterpanda]

It's written in the description.

[chiiiman]

ohh i thought it was yuna's ballad or something :D thanks

i thought the To You thing was a tribute to some1 haha

[Downlord1989]

really amazing!

Could you pleeeaase provide the sheets? *puppyDogEyes*

[SynGateGirl]

wow i gotta play those final fantasy games again

[malcolmaustin117]

omg..... seriously who would have thought those songs would blend so well :O

wow... that realy is amazing

[icameinlate2]

Dude........OMG THIS IS AMAZING TO

[frankensersh]

That is amazing!

The songs fit so well together, I like how you used the cadence at the end of To Zanarkand to start off 1000 words!!

[1bravoragazzo]

very very good... you are the best!

[sjvsweety]

that was amazing you are really a great piano player how long have you been playing

[monsterpanda]

hey thanks, I've been playing piano since 1999.

[jamiedude88]

cool

[hugenoodles]

*sniff* i'm not crying! there's just something in my eye! ;)

[bigboyjapan17]

Truly Amazing, where can i get hold of the music, i wanna learn some of these.

[danzai]

fantastic, you strung those pieces together so well. Kind of reminds me of the FF6 ending where all the themes are strung together. I liked the fact that you have a FF9 piece in there, that always gets forgotten

[askensi]

ok now this is firs class work...

[lilshortypie72]

Amazingg. So beautiful. Crazy awesome. *whips out thesaurus* Stupendous. Magnificent. Marvelous. Splendid.

You make my heart sing with great memories, and I respect and appreciate the fact that you took the time to link the songs together properly. Fabulous job, I think I'm in love with this video :P

[ldjx1000]

this is why people with so much talent like you are born, so they can put their heart and soul into their music to make anyone who listens happy :) keep it up.

[bboymilhy]

Me encanta lo tengo en favoritos q recuerdos mas bonitos saludos y muy bn currado

[PianoNinja]

[mkt021]

Monsterpanda is really a monster. Keep it up!

I like. (:

[machoca]

amazing!

[sephiroth90125]

memories of life!! bbuubububu :'( realy amazing

[nigelle88]

Great. Isn't there mp3?

[dylanw26]

Nice. See, what I really liked about your medley is you took the time to find a smart way to connect all of your songs together. A lot of people are too lazy to do that.

[frozenflame448]

noticed a couple mistakes, but again, amazing. thank you very much for posting this, i very much enjoyed listening to this.

[aznfootwork]

i noticed you snuck in a part of "ffx - isn't it beautiful" right before "to zanarkand", but didn't write that in your info. Right after you play "FF8 - eyes on me" i recognize another song but can't but my finger on it. What is it?

[monsterpanda]

Isn't it beautiful is the translation for Suteki da ne, right after eyes on me is Melodies of Life from FFIX

[aznfootwork]

oic the "suteki da ne" part. but i mean at 1:08... what are you playing there? is it still eyes on me? I dont recognize it as part of "melodies of life" either. =(

[Wickerbasket]

It's Eyes On Me in a different key.

[monsterpanda]

it's the interlude in Eyes on Me, remember there was an interlude with flute or some kind of whistle there, that's the part that I played.

[aznfootwork]

thank you! i remember. =]

[Milzeddy]

yo monsterpanda. man i been watching ur videos, but nothing in my opinion compares to this. ur a genius, great transitions between songs, it takes skill to do dat . n not many ppl have dat so dats coo.. keep it up. by the way could u make a tutorial of suteki da ne. great song. i wanna play dat yo. i cant read from sheets so i need to see some genius like u do it first. ttyl

Ed

[sephiroth1591391]

2:27 ffx yeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh­hhhh

[1bravoragazzo]

HEI VERY VERY GOOD!!!!!

[ThaScorpion87]

Love all the songs! Everytime when i hear a song i want to play the game!

Good job btw ^_^

[Crispy44]

ok cool, thanks =D

[Crispy44]

i really like the part that starts at 1:36, which song is it part of?

[shilent]

I think it's from FF9, though I could be wrong.

[GaxAngel]

i love the first song, reminds me of strolling through the world map =] and also beautifull playing

[okreboy2k6]

can u put a tutorial

[judoka1976]

The song sounds different but it was VERY cool to hear it. Keep the good work!!

[lionhartz]

beautiful! i love this.

[Notoriousagc]

THIS IS NICEEEEEEEEEE congradulations!! damnnnnnnnn ff7 is my fave game ever lol

[iday41]

oh i was meaning to as you this last time oh well anywho do you enjoy playing keyboard or piano? btw do you come up with the combinations of songs you play for this and Piano Complications 2 or does someone tell you this? also sry i typed to much..Great Job! =D

[monsterpanda]

I guess depends on the song, but a lot of times I really wish that I'm playing on a real piano bcoz of the acoustic elements, I came up with all of the ideas myself, the 1st series was mostly aligned according to the stories, the 2nd was mostly due to the element of the songs which is mainly solemn and perharps a lil bit sad.

[Notoriousagc]

you should also check out w3sp final fantasy 7 songs, he has them also but with a real piano, its pretty good...i wish i knew how to play the piano :( nice vids

[iday41]

oh my gosh sorry i pressed the wrong button!! super sorry i didn't mean to mark you as spam.. i am so stupid..sorry well i was going to say that is very impressive how you can come up with those ideas. Also I could tell that it would follow the stories, but it is also interesting if you mix it up a little so that if you start with a happy song you end with a sad song.

[kalimba00]

it took almost 7 minutes of my time but it was worth it. thank you for this very pleasant combination of songs. great job, very beautiful.

[Lucassen12]

Hm.. Looks lot a like 'Final Fantasy VII Advent Children - Main Theme '

Nice played by the way.

Keep it going

[Grob4er]

I can't recognize the final melody. How does it called?

[monsterpanda]

It's called To You or Kimi he, let's see, I don't quite remember now where you can actually listen to that song..oh I think it came from the Last Mission in the international version of FFX, the verse is the same as yuna's ballad.

[monsterpanda]

thx, been playing for bout 8 years now.

[placebo1172006]

WOW. SWEET. you're awesome. i am assuming you did most of this by ear. very talented. :)

[monsterpanda]

yep I did, thx a lot.

[SnooSnoo123]

amazing

[Blastdragon]

True FF9 POWNZ

[Ajc52]

This makes me wanna take up piano again, but i'm slow at reading the music :(

[xcross1788]

Thats 'Eyes On Me'

[Baliey]

what kind of keyboard is that?

[monsterpanda]

it's a Roland EXR-7s 76-key interactive arranger

[svetastar09]

i don't want the music to end! =) love it so much

[torieph]

GREAT JOB!!! I know how to play piano through sheetmusic, and it does take me a while to master it too. But i was thinking if you can share how you learned how to play by ear? any books you can recommend on how to learn this? any techniques? Yours sound better and more original! hahahha!! You inspire me alot. hope to hear from you! Thanks!

[monsterpanda]

hey thx, sorry I accidentally deleted you comments on the other video, I'll send you a PM later ok,

[Ragster6466]

Learning by ear is usually something you pick up from playing music for a very long time, some are even born with it. It's very rare and it's like 1 in every 100,000 or something :( We had to study it in physiology. It's called an Absolute Ear,, someone who can distinguish any note when it is played.

[monsterpanda]

Absolute Ear...that's really interesting, I know in the past it's been all related to a Perfect Pitch but this is the first time I've ever heard such a term, when you say a very long time, what kind of time span are we talking about here?

[Ragster6466]

Absolute ear is something in your ear, which later brings it in reference to Absolute Pitch. Perfect pitch is the more common term for Absolute Pitch lol

[Ragster6466]

Oops, and the time depends, usually people who are born into playing music, they have a higher chance of getting it. East Asians are 6x more likely to get it than whites lol

[monsterpanda]

yeah I just read about the East Asian thing, although after reading it I think I fall pretty much into the category of Passive Absolute rather than Active bcoz I'm not the best of producing the right frequencies on top of my head, OR I'm just very good at Relative Pitch category, but anyway thx for the insight, makes me feel good about being asian heh, =D

[Ragster6466]

lol, Well I'm from Northern India so that kinda makes me South/East Asian -.- maybe I have 3x more then haha!

[monsterpanda]

hahah nope buddy, according to Russel Peters India is south hehe, well I'm actually Indonesian so that's Southeast but I guess the gene might've come from my grandpa which is from Eastern province in china,

[Ragster6466]

My part of India is higher than the lowest part of China LOL! How long have you been playing Piano? I'm a 2 monther and can only play Ave Maria's and Fur Elise's R-Hand lol, L-H is too hard! Can't do both at the same time :P

[monsterpanda]

hahahhaha, alright alright you may join the eastern club buddy, I've been playing for bout 8 years now, so that's why I was asking you bout the time span before, but anyway, I'm hitting the sack in a bit so I'll probably reply again tomorrow k,

[endbringer1]

very nice haha :P this would be cool for a school talent show.. have this er something .. and to spice it up have 2 people.. doing actions to the music.. then split over too a battle music scene haha have another person er 2 jump out and do a bunch of moves and stuff lol.. be pretty entertaining.

[OverlordRoy]

T_T reminds me of sitting next to a warm fireT_T

[ystein3000]

beautiful

[lew2you]

Such a beautiful masterpiece! Did you write it all down? I was wondering if you could send it to me. my email is going to be sent to you if you. Thnx for playing this wonderful music man, i realy like this arrangement! Bravo!

[monsterpanda]

well, I didn't write the songs, they're all music from the huge Final Fantasy series and I believe Nobuo Uematsu (or maybe others) arranged them, I just played with my creativity and rearrange them into this compilations, but I'm sorry I don't have the sheet coz I'm playing by ear, if you like this one you should check the 2nd compilation, I think you might like that one too.

[146thagoods]

thank you for playing the main theme its very beautiful

[cherish92]

nice...very skilled.

[monsterpanda]

hey thx, the only problem is that I don't play by music sheet, it'll take me forever to learn the song from the book, so at this point I'm still better off learning the songs by listening to them, thx for the suggestion though =D.

[VenomOXP]

Dreadrick said it perfectly! haha amazing job bud...

[Dreadrick]

I dont know if this makes me wanna keep practicing or just set my piano on fire...

[SOLIDOROCHIMARU]

AMAZING!!! ^_^

[KALIEZ]

A M A Z I N G, would be an understatement..but it's the first thing that came to mind.

[rasenganzanpakuto]

Beautiful! I love the unique arrangements of the music, especially the VII Main Theme.

[kiwilover]

I love youuuuuuuu *o*;;

[tidusdu81]

[xRisingForcex]

Could you possibly request more demandingly?

[monsterpanda]

hey thx, I don't know what you meant though, you mean can I accept more request? sorry dude =D

[xRisingForcex]

No, like that guy was being awfully rude. 'MAKE ME SHEETS AND SEND THEM TO ME!' No f*cking manners dude. I know how that feels, everyone's like 'SEND ME TAB!' Lol.. XD

[monsterpanda]

lol I didn't realize that you're replying that guy's comment, it's alright really, got that kind of request alot nowadays, =D

[Kidpaddle]

[FFroxmysox]

you gave me chills. spec during to zanarkand. that's my fave song from FF

[loldar]

[skykam]

5+ stars!

[rockoklsl]

by the way!!! ive heard from g4 that they will release final fantasy 7 remake for the ps3 sometime next year, same story i presume but way better graphics, awesome!!!

[monsterpanda]

yeah that's what they've been saying so far, and actually they did a short remake of FF7 in PS3 juz to show the comparison of the white engine with the old ps2 GPU, anyway, thx for the comment.=D

[rockoklsl]

i love the FF7 part. makes me want to play again!!

[Fender869]

I'm new to keyboards and pianos after 6 years of guitar and bass. I've always wanted to play piano. I'm starting off slow, but i am already - by ear naturally- picking up off some of Nobuo Uematsu songs. Anyways, your performance was inspiring. What keyboard is that ? I play a Roland E-09 . It's an entry-level arranger keyboard. Not exactly beginner material, but i prefered it over cheaper ones due to it's realistic sound engine. It looks a little like yours.

Fender

great work

[monsterpanda]

thx buddy, it's a Roland EXR-7s 76-key arranger, not the top of the line but pretty sufficient for what I need at this time, I wish you all the best on your journey of learning piano, and truly I'm glad that my artwork can be an inspiration for someone, thx.

[ChibiChibinessChan]

o_o I love you...XD Your awsome. I can only play certain songs on piano. Mainly because I dont have one >_> But you are amazing, and I respect you. I know some sites have t he sheet music for the ff songs. But...learning by ear is amazing.

[Dragonheart999]

love the ff9 melodies of life i love that song, altogether well done mate! just a keyboard never has the same effect as a grand piano but very nice to hear!

[CedrikXIII]

relaxing

[LeathalAttack]

You played awesomely, if awesomely was a word.

[LingXia0yu]

That was very nice. Keep up the really, good work. ^__^

[shooto]

wow,.. that was great!

[ohbrokenwings]

one word -AMAZING-

[Dee3BoobTube]

Do you know the name of the temple songs from FFX? Whenever something spiritual was going on, this music would play. It sounded like a chorus of monks sometimes, or other times ladies. The notes go C, D#, D, F (hold it), F, D#, F, G, C... if you know the song you should be able to pick up the rhythm. I must know the name of this song!!

[monsterpanda]

glad to hear that you like the music, they're called Song of Prayer and it was sung by different person for each aeon, =D

[Dee3BoobTube]

Oh! Thank you! I feel like I'm going to cry again! But maybe that's just from the odd smell in this computer lab xD

[Dee3BoobTube]

FFX is my fav, and I wasn't paying much attention til you played the song I recognized. I wasn't into FF much when my brother played it (back with 7 & all), but you nearly brought tears to my eyes with "To Zanarkand." I miss that game, and considered buying it just for the music, but I've never played an RPG like that (or hardly any), and so I'm hesitant.

[ItRainsInMyWorld]

This is truely the best versions of these songs ever, as good as the original/no even better. keep up the great work!!!

[ZanarkandApe]

ITS PERFECT!! LOVED IT MAN!

[colemacdonald]

Wow! I've been a big Chrono fan for the last few years, but I'd never gotten into FF... but I think I will now. This music is beautiful and you've done a spectacular job!

[Ceredron]

as a fellow piano player and final fantasy enthusiast myself, I greatly appreciated your performance. A very, very good way to end my day. Keep up the good work, and I look forward to hearing perhaps some more from you in the future? Those are great compilations.

[Kmendoza7]
