  • You know, I was born into a Shi'ite Muslim family, but none of my other family members, who are practising Muslims took offence to this. Even if I was still practising the faith, this would be no concern for me. Actually, I like this version of the Fire Temple theme better.

  • I wish they used this song for ocarina of time for the 3DS

  • @goombatroopa1 I know right? this song is way better than the other one its kinda peaceful with those background voices C:

  • I'm playing OoT 3D Master Quest with the 3DS volume off and this video(song) playing

    It...is definitely eerie xD its a shame the chanting is so obviously looped though.

    Seems they could've gotten a bigger sample

  • thats the music that made me take a long time to beat that temple cuz i allways gott confused because of it

  • This song makes you feel badass as you reach the top floor

  • Volvagiaaaaaaaaa!

  • Heard this version makes the temple more awesome.

  • This song is different in the collectors edition version, right? I kinda like that one better.

  • @ThePwnybrony32 this is the one i grew up with, so i like this one =)

  • @ThePwnybrony32

    I had the collecter's first as well man. I like it a lot as well, but both are great. It's pretty difficult to say which is may favorite

  • @ThePwnybrony32 It's different in every version apart from the first one. v1.0 has this one and 1.1, 1.2, and the GC version had the one you're thinking of

  • oh this is the original version. it got taken off on the new versions. kinda like this one somehow better. its more intensifying. :3

  • Would it have killed them to record some replacement random Japanese gibberish instead of using edited Shadow Temple chants? This is awesome and the edited version is so lame by comparison.

  • @ReloadPsi

    thats what I always thought. They should have chanted something like Volvagia or really anything else. I prefer this to the Shadow Temple chorus.

  • those chants makes me shiver :x

  • But why no chant?

  • Nintendo is kind of ball-less for removing this from later versions. This is some kick-ass music.

  • @Zekkary agreed.

  • look up the song for Egypt on Cuisin' the World for the N64 it has the Chanting in that song too.

  • You mean 10:01 (:

  • oh my i always hated this music. I really like the temple but with the music it's no good and the part where a dudes voice comes....werid

  • I remember Chuggaaconroy named his Dragonair Volvagia XD

  • U can hear la ilaha illa allah

  • @kilo269 it means there is no other god but God

  • I always thought at 00:43 they said "Extra Bling".

  • Wait a minute how is Volvagia's name controversial ?

  • @Farvan893 Say it slowly.

    Second, the controversy was about the lyrics in the song, Nintendo has a strict no religious clause and the music happens to be an mosque chant.

  • @Farvan893 Because it sounds like a combination of "vulva" and "vagina" when you say his name slowly. The supposed Arabic chanting was the most controversial part of the Fire Temple though, so they removed the chanting from future releases/remakes. I think they also removed those symbols that have the crescent moon with the star next to it in later releases because it offended Muslims or something.

  • @Daffneyfan yeah in the copied version on the Gamecube, they got rid of the cresent moon with the star. Now she shield is a dimond shaped thing. I <3 ed the cresent moon and star on the mirror shield, and on the blocks too.

  • This hymn is gonna be playing in the background when I have a blacksmithing/sheet metal working shop someday. I will make it a temple to the god Hephaestus.

  • I have the Original N64 version with the chanting. I was 17 years old then and didn't even concider this being a problem. Whats happening to our society?

  • @DmanDice Apparently it's because this chanting is in Islam and roughly translates to something along the lines of: "There is no god but Allah".

    The name Allah can be quite clearly heard at some points in the chanting as well such as at 2:55, so i guess some people who practice Muslim took offense to this theme (probably due to the fact it plays in a hellish temple) and complained which forced Nintendo to switch out the theme in later OOT cartridges (version 1.2 and later). =\

  • @CerberusT93 Thx for explaining.No disrespect but I still think this is overly thought and rediculous.Besides ALL muslim prayers end up saying "theres no god but allah".It's a volcano and gives absolutely no reference to "hell" what so ever.I know you said "probably" but thats still digging for offensive reasons.If i was offended there's a "catholic like" church with chanting/humming in this game (temple of time) im sure no one would care.I hate catoring. Someone will always be offended anyways

  • @DmanDice I completely agree with you to be honest, after all you can't please everyone. mind you I grew up with version 1.2 (I think i was 9 or close to that) but I actually kinda prefer this chanting as opposed to that dark humming sound. it sounds more fitting.

  • this is the old version lol it was suposidly baned becase it sounds like islamic chanting or somthing as ridiculos as that

  • this is the first fire temple theme they changed it in the later ones cause the chanting sounded like a religous chant

  • and just to show you guys i know the actully story..ganodorf revived volg as a sign to the gorons. volg was a dragon who USE to live on death mountiain and ate on gorons from the tribes. the hero of the gorons who carryed the megaton hammer deafeated the evil dragon. link of oot meets up with the son of daurnina sry if i spell it wrong and goes to the fire temple to try to save him and the other gorons.

  • @SuperCasperman saves his father sorry XD

  • omg i know its not canon but clearly you guys cant read. i said after reading this playing the fire temple felt a little more sad cearly after reading a story based on a game that i already love. its was a very kool twist n thought people who didnt read it should hear it. sort of gives you a different feeling when playing a new playthorugh for the 50th time. i didnt mean to upload a fake or troll story just a kool sidenote thats all guys

  • @SuperCasperman but remember, the fight never happened. the whole adult part is in a parallel reality.

  • @ZeBigStrat true but i believe it still happens. link has to go forward in time to be the hero. so when link gets the sword 7 yrs has really pass. i believe it happened but since he went back to being a child the events wont take place. sort of like dragon ball z when trunks came to the past to save the future. he had to help the past in order to save the future. same here link must go forward to save the past from ending up like the future. so 7 yrs has really passed ..all evil is gone already

  • I don't understand how anyone could be offended by the chanting.

  • @ SuperCasperman That's great.

    SPOILER: nobody cares.

  • @familyguyisawesome19 I care. Now learn to actually reply to a comment before being on youtube anymore.

  • after being away for 7 years, ganondorf took vagia under his controll. In The Manga, link trys not to hurt vagia by screaming out, "ITS ME LINK, REMEMBER!!!!" but under such a powerful spell couldnt do anything. Link closes his eyes as Vagia comes straight at him. and with a mighty leap he cut the dragon's head off. as link stood next to the head, Volvagia looks at link with tears bursting down his face and before he body turns into dust his last word was," Li.....nk..." Link cryed as he vanish

  • Comment removed

  • @SuperCasperman this story made me cry ;(

  • Actually After reading the manga this temple is the saddest. for thoes who never read it, Link was actully friends with Volvagia. Volvagia was capture as a baby dragon and was being selled in the town market. link saw the saw lil dragon and paid 60 rupees to save him. link brought the dragon to the field to play around with it. Vagia was mean at first but after saving link from a skeleton they became best of friends. Vagia actully spoke and only word he knew was link.

  • @SuperCasperman but thats non-canon

  • @SuperCasperman the manga is considered non-canon by the zelda community and has nothing to do with the games.

  • @SuperCasperman wow that's interesting. I thought the chanting was sad, i'd understand how it ties in with the manga. It must have been hard for link.

  • @SuperCasperman Like Daniel said, that stuff is non-canon and not part of the storyline, it's made up by 3rd party and is not part of the story. Rather a silly manga.

  • @SuperCasperman Wow what else does it have in the manga?

  • @777Rowen its not letting me send the link if u want give me like a emial address or sumthing and i can tell you the website you can read all of them =]..

  • @SuperCasperman But I don't know how to read a manga. :) I can try, and my email address is Barbara.Buitron@Gmail.com. I want to give it a shot. As for the fire temple, in both the N64 and Gamecube, I heard this humming sound and a singing choris, with little bell noises too. I love all the Zelda Temple theames except for the Shadow Temple. 0.0

  • @777Rowen lol i sent you the link haha get it link zelda's link haha lol im corny ..anyway dont worry its been translated to english so enjoy =] ..reading the manga is fun for like your 100th playthru..u can play the game with a different story in mind

  • @SuperCasperman you mean *sold... not selled...

  • @SuperCasperman I had to agree with you.

  • Comment removed

  • @SuperCasperman Do you know where I could buy or find the manga? I've been looking, and I just can't find it! ;_;

  • @GrellSutcliff1995 Go to Zelda Infinite,then click on Fan Stuff,then Manga,there is some english translated zelda manga,ocarina of time is there too!

  • @Zelink4evah Thank you so much! :D

  • @GrellSutcliff1995 Your Welcome,there is more manga floating around at Zelda Dungeon that isn't there.

  • @Zelink4evah Oh okay.

  • @SuperCasperman That's non-canon. It's not technically part of the Oot game story. But it's a good story, nonetheless!

  • the only reason nitendo took out the chanting was because they didn't want islamic people to sue them.

  • @amurik3n when did they take out the chanting? in the new one?

  • I find the chants rather calming, and I'm atheist. I hold as much respect to honorable Muslims as any other religion. The language is beautiful, what else can I say? The tone fits in well, that is all that should matter, and I'm sure that's what the designers thought.

  • @Abnorvell thank you :)

  • hey do you have the extended version of that swamp temple in majora's mask

  • um dont listen to this at night. it scares the shit out of me....

  • @darknid158 ill take your word for it

  • @darknid158 ill understand if it was the shadow temple instead

  • @Silverwind1989 its those islamic chants man. but the shadow temple dont scare me.... just the fucking chants.....

  • @darknid158 This song is cool, even with the chants. Although i dont quite agree with the islamic people.

  • Personally I prefer the chanting version over the modren version

  • @2Midna

    lol easy buddy i wasnt talking about you i was talking about muslim extremisists that caomplain over the littlest things, sorry i didnt phrase that comment properly my bad

  • @2Midna

    no i understand because there're some idiotic extremists that just b*tch and moan over nothing :/

  • @2Midna

    i dont know about the rest, but ive grown to defend my religion however small the comment and dont think im a terorrist because they give any religion a bad name

    sorry for jumping to that topic but the way society is now...

  • @2Midna

    im muslim and though it supposedly sounds islamic in the vocals i really dont care

    its awsome - and didnt u read the caption it said DONT TALK ABOUT OTHER RELIGIONS!

    (i know im doing it as well but its my religion and i have a right to do so)

  • @2Midna Example of a moron.

  • I love this one and the Forest Temple! The soundtracks are so creepy! LOVE IT!

  • I love LOVE this track along with Forest Temple. Drove me near mad they did being stuck as a kid in these temples.

  • @ChrisRey3156 i feel your pain. as you grow up it got a whole lot easier

  • @ChrisRey3156 i feel your pain. as you grow up it got a whole lot easier

  • What's with the religious comments? Did I just seriously read someone saying someone who isn't Muslim can't like this song? Did I SERIOUSLY just read that? Absolutely amazing what some people say. *laughs*

  • 0:42 scared the shit outta me since i was hearing headphones 0__0

  • This song gives me spiritually tpe of high,and i`m not Muslim even lol.

  • Boy, I can't wait to bomb some Dodongos!

  • @wolfthehunter65 It sure is boring around here...I just wonder what Ganon's up to!

  • This is something awsome to listen with headphones in the dark.

  • AH *bleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeep* . . . wait . . . did he say no cursing . . . ?

  • left right left left right left

  • all im hearing is the chorus praising volvagia. what is the big fuss with religion? enough with the stupid comments. its just a game.

  • is it me or is volvagia easier in the ds version

  • @queensis it sucks to u cause

    A) your not a pyro like me

    B) you couldn't pass it

    C) you have no respect 4 awesomeness...that or something else but knows gonna kill u for not liking it

  • @SuperTwilightWolf thank you :D

  • @RDD756 welcomes

    

  • this temple suck

  • any other religions

    HA! i talked about it,

  • Everytime this song plays I alwasys mistake it for Stone Tower Temple.

  • I was using my earphones to hear this song, and when the chanting came, it scared the heck out of me! In other words, never use earphones to hear this!

  • now I know what everyone's talking about.......IT DOES SOUND LIKE RANDOM CHANTING!!!!! AAHHH!! I have the newer version, though....I don't think I could've completed the temple with this creepy music on..........I'm kinda glad they changed it.

  • Religion.

  • i can hear a made up tribe chant in this, u no like an avatar chant

  • I still have OoT for Nintendo 64 with this exact song... I love it a lot... The game is clearly the best I have every played... Period, it's better then 4 swords, and Twilight Princess, in my opinion

  • @MasterSethern I personally love all Zelda games...except for wind waker...it´s just so childish in my opinion.

  • @Warxoth I find the only reason people think its childish is because f the style in which it was animated. but then i pose a simple question to you. How else, (other then cartoon style) could one animate wind??

  • @Warxoth Wind Waker wasn't childish, have you finished it?

  • It's fun playing Whack-A-Mole with Volvagia. :D

  • @haymujer1 No, these ARE Islamic chants. You can very clearly hear "Allahu akhbar" at some points. Nintendo removed them from later versions solely out of fear of complaints, not because any Muslim actually complained.

  • (says curse words)

    YEAH I FEEL SO DAMN HARCORE!!!!

    Is "damn" a curse word...cause idk

  • Gorons are chanting:

    "Help us, Link. Help us, Link. Help us, Link. Hurry, Hero of Time."

    "Help us Link - We're stuck in prisons and we are trapped inside (come save us now) - Help us Link, Hero of Time"

  • @Zmario116 Well, that is just my opinion :P

  • @Joricky12 it was removed because the chanting was actually an islamic prayer but you can still find it in most roms or very early copys of the game

  • I mean wat in the beginning of the sentence

  • War is it sayin I hear we love volvagia

  • @masterzelda101 Same here m8. We love volvagia.

  • What is with the random chanting? It doesn't really fit in at all

  • @Ocelot60 This was the early version of the fire temple theme, it got removed from the game for some reasons.

    Personally i think this theme is more awesome.

  • Don't.. wanna fall off .. this..ledge now..OO! Hearts! Jump!

    AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...............­...........

    AYE! DZIT!

    "half a heart for falling a good 10 seconds onto a rope bridge? really?"

  • I hear break away and ahhhhhhh nooooo! D:

  • It is strongly believed by Team Beta Triforce that the Fire Temple was Turtle Rock in early beta.

  • The chanting actually added an effect onto the music, to it's already excellence.

    Too bad it was removed

  • All other chantings I don't get.

  • I think it sounded like ''we love Volvagia we love Volvagia we love Volvagia ooooour looove''.

  • the words are basicly "ay allay (or allah) and some other chanting)" and when the muslim group found out they complained and the music was changed. but i have the original N64 version with all original things and a postcard signed by the japanese creaters

  • @flatfacefans

    hi, i've lost mine... before i buy 2948 copies on ebay, do you know how to identify the original ones? :S

  • @5YR15

    Hey, and no i think they look the same, i have n64 but i dont know, you might have to ask someone on ebay and ask them about it, if i knew i would tell ya but i dont, sorry :((( but they really arnt different besides for a few changes. if you find it then message me, hope it helps kinda :)

  • @flatfacefans

    T_T

    well, i think i had an old version before and i swear i was able to beat this marathon man. tried it with an other version (because my brother sold the first one................) but it just did not work :S

  • @flatfacefans No Muslim complained about anything. Nintendo took them out of their own volition.

  • Link: *Running around in that one room with all of those rolling boulders* Backround music: Let come rain, let come rain, let come rain aaaAAAAaaahhhh... Link: O.O *stops* *thinks: who was that?* *looks around* *gets run over by one of those stupid rolling boulders* AAAAAAAAHHHH!

  • Also why do people have such a prob with the chants in this track? I never saw anything negative about it and I rather like them, gives that 'templey' feel to it

  • @PinkLeopard80s Because it contains Islamic chanting ( somewhere in there it says Allah ) and apparently this is a bad thing that offended both Islams and other religions. Ever since every remake of the game (all the way down to the recent 3DS) that one verse containing Allah in it was removed, also the the symbol that was the moon and star (which resembles Turkey was taken down as well) Even in video games, religions still a problem, huh.

  • @mikeduels Oh yeah I remember the symbol on those blocks. No one believed me though

  • Wheres the other downloads for these?

  • the intro remember me of Stone tower temple!!

  • i always interpreted one of the chants as open bar eh?

  • To me the chant sounds kinda like We all will hale Volvagia over and over it doesnt sound bad to me =/

  • The fire temple: Very easy temple if you know what too do from past completions. For newcomers, this temple could strike you as a pain the butt. Overall very cool and easy temple.

  • My Subwoofer is going Woooop Woooop.

  • Comment removed

  • Volcania the most cool boss of all Zelda.

  • Comment removed

  • @XsharkunX volvagia*

  • @kstx Yep sorry I forgot because in french it's Volcania.

  • is islam the jewish religion?

    

  • @codster4488 Umm Seriously Are you kidding Me ? O,O.....

  • @codster4488 you are totally an idiot man.... islam not = jews that common knowledge dude ¬¬ is like saying god = chuck norris... we all know that Chuck Norris is > god

  • @Linkhyla hey how am i supposed to know? you dont have to call me an idiot, i just asked a simple damn question!

  • @codster4488 calm down man i did not intended on insulting anyone.... ;)

  • @codster4488 No, Islam is the islamic religion.

  • islam chanting

  • THATS AWESOME! why didnt they put that in the game!?

  • @GaraaNKiba It was in the game at first, then got taken off by people complaining about it. Same for the Mirror shield. It had another Symbol on it, before it gets changed from some more people complaining.

  • If the chanted offended people of a certain religion then I suppose that taking the chanting out had to be done. Quite a shame though considering the chanting game the fire temple a certain ambience that was sheer brilliance. Koji Kondo's score for this game was and always will be a masterpiece.

  • :L this version is teh version i like, hopefuly they have this song for the 3DS :P

  • i personally love this version. The chanting gives it a more tribal feel, and it's not like they are singing in any particular language anyway. XD

  • at 1:20 I felt like I was inside a mosque doing prayer considering that I'm a muslim and I thought how Koji Kondo added the Arabic speaking into the fire temple soundtrack was really cool I wish Nintendo never taken it out

  • WHAT THE HECK IS WITH THE NEW PROGRESS BAR?!?!?

  • @FlatMattress What bar? The magic bar? Didn't you finish the game?

  • @JennyAakiwa O ya I finished it, I just put wthat on a wholo bunch of videos because I got kinda mad because I didn't like it.The progress bar on the video, there was a whole bunch of them it was black and sorta transparent and red and it looked stupid and I didn't like it so ya.... but they're all gone now so i dunno what happened...

  • @JennyAakiwa He/She's talking about Youtube doing a wild test run for a new load bar on videos.

  • @LoZWWisawesome HE/She??? that is the latter... But is that what it was? XD oh, well then maybe I should wait a day before I spaz out..... :P heh heh oopsies

  • @FlatMattress Oh, uh, sorry. ;;

    Yeah... It's okay. I kinda spazzed, too. XD

  • who else is listening to this while playing the 3ds fire temple

  • @IQ567891234 to the video, not actual ingame music
