@psicoskull He didn't ever wanna be resurrected... it's the eternal battle he faces of being dracula's son thats half human.. and when everything else fails..its left on his shoulders to banish his father..
This song is so beautiful and moving at the same time. Know I am in love with this song. I feel like the calm wind is making my day. Great job finding this song!
Some reason - this song reminds me of Vampire Hunter D. I've seen many fanfics which portray Alucard and D as brothers - and given their similarities, I can't help but wonder.
In any case - no matter how angry or upset I am, this song always calms me - cheers me up.
Pretty song. It's not epic sounding or anything, but that makes it more charming. I never played SotN myself, but this makes me want to go out and get it right now.
Favorite part is around the 2:00 mark. The 'I don't know if I will pass this way again' just sounds so sad and heartfelt.
Cheating at 2:26 though. You can't rhyme wind with wind. :P
@Elusareth It's not epic, but Alucard is a very humble character, it suits him PERFECTLY, like how Duke Nukem's theme by Megadeath is so over the top, like he is....
At first you'll think "Omg this is crap voice acting! And this belongs on a Megadrive dammit!", but as you explore Drac's castle and build-up Alucard into a strong character, the game will blow you away. Then theres all the secrets too!
The only bad thing about SOTN is that you get the feeling the game was rushed by Konami somehow. But even still, it truly is a masterpiece and I recommend it.
You could be unfair and compare Castlevania Alucard to end of Hellsing manga Alucard... in which case Hellsing's would win.. 100% guaranteed, lol. And, honestly, it's not that unfair. That's just how Alucard ends up. An un-destroyable fact of the universe.
@azgalorazgalor17 Two different series. Yes, in Castlevania Alucard defeated his father, but in Hellsing, Alucard is Dracula, and the Alucard from Castlevania doesn't exist. So I ask again, who would win, based on their abilities, not by the series in which they inhabit.
@Vergil1Dante0 alucard from cv imo...They can use magic/spells, they can turn themselves into bat, wolf or mist(don't know about alucard in hellsing though if he can turn to mist). They can both summon familiars, as quoted from alucard in hellsing when fighting luke....The advantage of alucard in cv is the alucard sword and shield which he use to destroy dracula and his minions. Also the alucard in cv can use holy water, bible, and holy cross and other holy weapons. It's like anderson+alucard.
@azgalorazgalor17 And yet Alucard from CV can only use those weapons because he is half human. If you recall, he was wounded by touching water before you obtained a particular item in the game's events. Alucard from Hellsing is still able to bounce back from a holy weapon's blow, as demonstrated in the final fight with Anderson. The sword and shield which Alucard of CV uses are mere memento's of his mother, so they wouldn't deal any more damage to a vampire than a regular sword.
@Vergil1Dante0 it's just he has too many lives that he devoured that's why he can't be killed....Let's say all the tricks you find in the SOTN game can be used when he fights alucard in hellsing-The shield rod used with alucard shield can be lethal, and I think the faerie familiar lvl 99 can resurrect him over and over again when he dies. He just needs to use those different powerful magics to kill those millions of souls that alucard devoured in hellsing. and don't forget the yellow mist...
If you really like Alucard character you'll see how much this song relates with his life.
Gone with the wind, back to his coffin, waiting for when the darkness will come back to wake him up again. For there is no reason left to live eternal life but to exist for his duty, balancing his father's sins.
Its the hair, every character that has long silver hair has been badass. Sephiroth, Alucard, Siefer, Ultimecia, Ragna the Bloodedge, Chipp Zanuf, Lightning, Snow, etc. Each has had long, silver hair in some fashion or another, and each is a badass in their game.
@Vergil1Dante0 i'm sorry but including Sephiroth? no. Strip him down and he's a whiny mamas boy with a whole lot of fame while Kefka's final form isn't even heard of. even the sprite looks awesome and he could kill any innocent flowergirl that stood in his way.
Save for sephrioth none of those other characters you mentioned have the fame he does and i see it's for no reason.
@VolkColopatrion You are a Kefka fan as well? He would have been listed but he did not fit the criteria as he does not have silver hair in either of his forms. But alas, Kefka could easily kick Sephiroth's pansy ass from here to Exdeath's Void. As for the other names, you obviously have no culture aside from Final Fantasy, and even that is shoddy at best, granted Kefka is a far better villain than any other, as he ruined the lives of every generation of Final Fantasy character after VI
alas, that is the point. Sephiroth is, above all else has a greater following than he deserves. Chipp of guilty gear has a dark background where he didn't start off a hero and climbed a steep ladder battling drug addiction yet his name is only spoken amongst the most esoteric of circles. Lightning is betrayed, enough said.
yet Sephiroth snaps his fingers, becomes all powerful with a borderline Oedipus complex. not exactly as badass as Doc Holiday.
Why do Konami seem intent on removing this song from all their later ports of SotN (ie. on XBLA and PSP). I think it's a beautiful song, fitted the ending perfectly on the original version.
Removing this from later versions was like when Nintendo decided to remove the cool ending credits music from the GBA port of Super Mario Bros 3. If a game is considered to be a classic, it's because the fans like everything about it and there's no need to screw around with it :(
I agreed, when I first beat the psp remake, I was like "WTF WHERE MY I AM GONE WITH THE WIND." Instead all we heard is some crappy instrumental. Castlevania SOTN is an already excellent song without this.....but this song PUSH IT OVER THE EDGE. Samething with snake eater & MGS3.
oh come on, you know every ending needs a song, Alucard separates from that world and sleeps for eternal thats why he is the wind, and the sun so they can remember what he has done for them.
Thanx you for telling these fools that. LOL, I swear ppl just love to complain about anything. The song lyrics are so simple, they should understand that it does make sense.
Yeah I know, I rushed through it to hear this and it was the original ending music =\.
I remember beating SotN the first time and I saw the credits roll and heard this song and I was like "OMG that's how a game needs to end, with a song playing at the credits!"
the artists name is Ms. Cynthia Harrell. she also sang Snake Eater on Metal Gear Solid. she sounds great!! i have got the opportunity to work with her personally. such a sweet woman!!
