I'd like to hear you play "Dream of the Shore Near Another World" from Chrono Cross. I've played a ton of video games and it's one of the best songs i've come across.
Best interpretation I have heard here on Youtube. Simple rendition without all the fluff that others seem to add, thus polluting the core of the composition. Yours is without a doubt the one with most feeling. Keep up the good work.
You are one extremely talented man, my hat goes off to you. This piece was one of my favorite tracks in the FF series, watching this video just rekindled some old memories not to mention some old goosebumps that i get from listening to it. BRAVO!!
wow!!! that was just bad ass! that was the first rpg I ever played and to this day it is still my favorite. when I bought it I didn't even know what final fantasy was. a friend recommended it.
sure is. even tho I love Super Metroid, Secret of Mana too. Zelda aint bad either. All so great SNES games.. games you dont see nowdays anymore... =(
Kinda sad how new video games can't compare to the classics. You think that they would get better rather than devolve and stagnate. Not to say that new video games aren't fun, but I guess i prefer the older ones.
damn straight, final fantasy 6 is by far the darkest, therefor best, FF story I have played. FF7 was good too, but you can see recycled elements from 6 at every turn. Its kinda sad that the recent final fantasys have eleminated character class/job with sphere grid/license etc. I hope they bring back the classic system
hey man i have this on my ipod and its piano only with a small solo thing in it do you know what it is? Its probably just another arranged version it was cool though
Terra's theme is actually a remix of the intro theme. Or the intro theme is a remix of TErra's theme, not really sure but it could go either way. They kinda share the same theme :3
Terra's theme is not mixed with the intro. They're two separate songs but I was confused by the title. They are not the same and should not be confused. The first song is the Prologue theme and the second would be Terra's theme (unofficial).
I only meant that they have the same notes, not the exact same song. The portion of the prologue normally refered to as "March to Narshe" is a remake of Terra's theme.
final fantasy 3 was so beautiful from music to story!!! The game was perfectly balanced.my favorite of all rpgs.thank you for your rendition it made me remember one of the great exp in my life.(sobing now)=(
OMG, I toally love FF3. It was one of the first role playing games I ever played and is on of the favorites even today (about 10 years later). Fantastic music and superbly played.
I think it's a great arrangement! I do think the chord at 2:58 might be in the wrong inversion, but still affective. I also like how you drew out the 4-3 suspension at 3:18ish. Good job!
you dont have to like something in order to experience or in wanting to do so.
similar to those that say, if you dont like rap why comment on it? like they're trying to be reasonable with, when in fact, they're logic is out of whack.. aparently YOUTUBE wishes to place similar items on their front page, FORCING IT UPON ME! MY GOD NO!! so yes.. I iinclined to watch the vid and give my "comment" just as youtube willed it. :P whats wrong with that?
You did a damn good job and I dont even see any sheet music. This game and its music give me a very unique feeling overall and it will always be my favorite FF game thanks for doing this piece.
geez idk how many times ive replayed this video but it always seems to get better the more i listen and close my eyes while i picture the game as you play...its a beautiful piece and you play it so well i get all choked up listening to it and thinking of all the wonderful memories ive had playing this particular FF...
This music is legendary! And not suprisingly you play it very nicely! Love listening to this! You should try the flying continent theme! That one is awesome as well!
NightShader1: You rock, you can take any song and form your own interpretation that feels just as good as the original. And mostly you're even just using the piano sounds... I liked your castlevania songs too :)
Happiness, Sadness, Sorrow, Pribe, and many other emotions combined in this song is enough to make any man cry.. wont be ashamed to say i did... im sure some of you did also,, greatest game in the world
It's 3 in the States and 6 in Japan because they thought that the NES 2 and 3 were too hard for us. Even when they release 4 over here as 2 for the SNES it was an easier version of the game. After they realized they had a market over here for RPGS like that, that that's when they changed the numbering and caught us up. If that made any sense?
Very good!
